Project Scope:
This is one of the country’s biggest districts cooling plant serving Abu Dhabi’s new Midfield Terminal Building (MTB). With a capacity of 55,000 tones of refrigeration, the district cooling plant provides air conditioning for the MTB through 18 chillers and two thermal energy storage tanks.
The district cooling system meets rigorous international green building standards (Estidama) and utilizes innovative technology to increase energy efficiency and provide sustainable air conditioning for the MTB.
The project was delivered by Vista Automation in 2016, and a security audit was conducted recently with recommendations to comply with IEC 62443.
Our Solution:
Establish DMZ using redundant Ruggedcom firewalls, establish end point protection for all servers & workstations, implement different security policies related to users and physical access, provide Acronis backup solution, and integration with the airport network protection solution. The SCADA system was also upgraded to the latest available windows operating system and SCADA software.
