ARC表示ABB占據全球DCS市場份額首位
July 22, 2009 - In the newest version of ARC Advisory Group’s “Distributed Control Systems Worldwide Outlook,” study, ABB retained its leading worldwide market position in this core automation market. The study reports that the explosive growth that characterized the DCS (distributed control system) market up until 2008 is gone due to the global economic crisis; ARC forecasts that the compound annual growth rate for this market through 2013 will be curbed to 3%. DCS related services offer the best opportunity for growth in the near future.
7月22日消息——ARC一份最新的《分布式控制系統全球展望》研究報告指出，ABB保持了其在這自動化核心市場的全球市場領導地位。這份研究報告指出，2008年之前全球DCS（分布式控制系統）市場所經歷的爆發式增長隨著全球經濟危機的到來而結束。ARC預測該市場到2013年的年綜合增長率將維持在3%左右，但與分布式控制系統相關的服務業務將很快成為市場增長的最好機會。
The ARC report states that the customer demand for value-added services from automation suppliers has never been higher. These include project services such as the Main Automation Contractor (MAC) concept, where the supplier takes full responsibility for all aspects of an automation project, as well as other after-sales DCS services that help end users optimize plant performance.
該ARC報告表示，客戶越來越需要自動化供應商提供的增值服務。這些服務包括“自動化主承包商”概念的項目服務，自動化供應商在自動化項目中承擔各方面的全部責任，還包括其他分布式控制系統售后服務，幫助終端用戶優化工廠績效。
The report also noted that as end users strive to extract every last ounce of performance out of their plants, they need to reduce energy consumption. Aside from raw materials costs, energy ranks as one of the top cost pressures affecting manufacturers today. ARC stated that integrating the automation and power/energy domains of the manufacturing process can yield significant energy cost savings.
報告還指出，隨著終端用戶不遺余力地提高工廠在各個方面的績效，他們需要大力降低工廠能耗。除原材料成本外，能源成本已成為制造商當前所面臨的最大成本壓力之一。ARC表示通過整合制造流程中的自動化和電力能源管理可以顯著節約能源成本。
“ABB integrates the process control, process electrification, and power distribution and management portions of a plant with System 800xA, so information is available to all areas. This strategy is particularly interesting and beneficial to industries that are heavy electrical users, such as oil & gas, utilities, pulp & paper, and metals, that view electricity as a raw material,” said Larry O'Brien, Research Director for Process Industries, ARC. “ABB’s extended and versatile control system offerings, combined with its MAC project management capabilities and vast DCS services portfolio, have helped ABB retain its leadership position in the worldwide market.”
ARC流程工業研究總監Larry O'Brien表示：“ABB利用800xA系統對工廠中的過程控制、過程電氣化、配電以及電力管理進行整合，可以獲得各方面的信息。對于石油和天然氣、公用事業、紙漿和造紙、冶金等視電力為原材料的電力消耗大戶而言，這一策略尤其使他們受益非淺。ABB擁有廣泛而多樣的控制系統，具有很強的自動化主承包商項目管理能力和豐富的分布式控制系統服務項目，這些優勢幫助ABB在全球市場繼續保持了其領導地位?！?/P>
According to the study, ABB was also the regional market share leader for Europe/Mid East/Africa (EMEA), and the worldwide leader in key global verticals including Upstream Oil & Gas, Power Generation, Mining and Metals.
根據這份報告，ABB還在歐洲、中東和非洲等區域市場保持領先的市場份額，并且在石油和天然氣的上游產業、發電、采礦和冶金等全球主要的垂直市場保持領先地位。
The report also stated that the need to provide services and support for the installed base of DCS systems, estimated at over $65 billion worldwide, is more critical than ever in the current economic climate.
報告還指出，全球運營中的分布式控制系統需要的服務和支持，總價值預計超過650億美元，在當前的經濟環境下，客戶對于這些服務的需求越來越高。
“ABB’s comprehensive automation system lifecycle approach helps our customers get the maximum value out of their existing control system investment, while providing a secure evolution path forward to help them maintain their competitiveness and reach their productivity targets,” said Veli-Matti Reinikkala, head of ABB’s Process Automation division. “Our leading-edge technology, dedicated global services team and commitment our installed base provide an unbeatable combination to transcend today’s troubled economy and prepare for tomorrow’s new challenges.”
ABB過程自動化業務部主管Veli-Matti Reinikkala表示：“ABB全方位的自動化系統生命周期業務幫助客戶從已有的控制系統投資中獲得最大收益，同時還提供了可靠的改進方案，幫助客戶進一步保持企業競爭力，實現生產率目標。我們先進的技術、敬業的全球服務團隊以及對客戶的承諾可以為客戶帶來巨大的綜合優勢，幫助他們成功應對當前困難的經濟環境并為迎接未來的新挑戰做好準備?！?/P>
