Posted: 21 June 2006
Momentum for G/Technology adoption continues in China
Intergraph Corporation reported the successful phase one implementation of its G/Technology geofacilities management application at Nanjing Gas, the largest of 25 Chinese companies that have joint ventures with the utility giant, Hong Kong China Gas Company, also known as Towngas.
The phase one milestone encompasses using geospatial technology to streamline network operations, including maintenance, repair and replacement.
Nanjing Gas is the first gas industry provider to deploy Intergraph’s G/Technology platform in China.
It is implementing the G/Gas suite of geofacilities management applications, which are based on gas distribution industry best practices and are a key enabling technology within Intergraph’s Geospatial Resource Management (GRM) environment of integrated systems.
The success of the G/Technology implementation within the gas industry in China has created additional momentum for further adoption of Intergraph’s software by Chinese gas suppliers including; ChongQing Gas Corporation, the gas supplier for China’s fourth largest city; YiXing Gas, which services an area of 2,038km2 and provides liquefied natural gas (LNG) to 300,000 households; Maanshan Gas, which services an area of 1,686km2 and provide LNG to 300,000 households; Zhong Shan Gas, which services an area of 1,888km2 and provides LNG to 40,000 households and; Shunde Gas, which will supply LNG to 610,000 households, within the next five years.
These organisations are modernising their gas transition and distribution operations using geospatial technology to benefit from centrally managed information systems, enabling comprehensive information processing and effective resource and asset management.
“Intergraph’s G/Technology provides a proven, powerful solution to meet the Nanjing Gas’ unique needs,” said Mr. Huang Jianhua, vice general manager, Nanjing Hong Kong and China Gas Company, Ltd. “G/Technology’s open technology, high performance and demonstrated gas network modelling capabilities have resulted in dramatic improvements at Nanjing Gas and gas suppliers across China are taking notice.”
“The rapid adoption of G/Technology in China’s gas industry demonstrates its flexibility to meet any number of changing requirements or restrictions,” said Tim Mahoney, vice president, Security, Government & Infrastructure, Asia Pacific, Intergraph Corporation.
“G/Technology’s gas industry-specific solutions gives enterprise users access to the latest, most accurate information from the facility model – saving time and increasing productivity.”
