Digital Transformation in the Energy Industry | Latest News

Process Industries like Oil and Gas, Petrochemicals, Power Generation and Distribution, Pulp and Paper, etc. are facing the opportunity to move their in-plant technologies to the next generation of Process Control Architecture. Led by ExxonMobil, The Open Group formed the Open Process Automation™ Forum a little over a year ago to take advantage of these burgeoning opportunities. It addresses both technical and business issues for process automation.

The Open Process Automation vision is a standards-based, open, secure, and interoperable process control architecture which:

• Enables access to leading edge capability 
• Allows integration of best-in-class components 
• Preserves asset owners' application software; significantly lowers cost of future replacement 
• Employs an adaptive intrinsic security model
• Promotes innovation and value creation 
• Applies across multiple process industries 
• Is commercially available
