Organizations that move water, oil, gas, or other resources across a network of supply and demand points benefit from the same secure and resilient platform  that runs a critical electric grid: continuous monitoring, control, and optimization to improve reliability, maintain delivery quality, and lower operating cost while meeting stringent Cyber Security requirements mandated by more critical electric networks. novoFLOW™ extends the renovo™ SCADA platform with fluid network management capabilities designed for large-scale gas transmission and distribution as well as  water distribution and other pipeline operations.

Beyond core SCADA functionality, novoFLOW adds the analytical capabilities needed to operate complex fluid networks. Operators can determine optimal flow across the network’s supply and demand nodes, detect and localize system losses, and identify fault locations and leaks while supporting restoration activities. Integrated contingency analysis enables them to evaluate “what-if” scenarios of equipment or segment failures against the live model. One real-time platform manages the whole operation. 

Because it runs on renovo and communicates over the same broad protocol set as the rest of the platform with novoCOM™, novoFLOW talks directly to the RTUs, PLCs, and flow computers in the field, while integrating with third-party pipeline and station computers through novoAPI™.
