ARC says ABB is number one in DCS
ARC表示ABB繼續(xù)雄踞DCS市場(chǎng)首位

ARC Advisory Group has released their Distributed Control Systems Worldwide Outlook report for 2013 in which ABB has retained its leading position in the worldwide DCS (distributed control system) market. According to the study, the global DCS market grew about 4 percent in 2013.

ARC顧問集團(tuán)發(fā)布的《2013年分布式控制系統(tǒng)全球展望》報(bào)告指出，ABB仍然占據(jù)全球DCS市場(chǎng)的領(lǐng)先地位。根據(jù)這份報(bào)告，2013年全球DCS市場(chǎng)大約增長(zhǎng)4%。

According to the study, ABB was the regional market share leader for Latin America, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), and the worldwide leader in key global verticals including oil and gas, pulp and paper, mining and metals.

報(bào)告顯示，ABB是拉丁美洲、歐洲、中東及非洲（EMEA）地區(qū)市場(chǎng)份額的領(lǐng)頭羊，在全球市場(chǎng)，包括石油和天然氣、紙漿和造紙、采礦和金屬等主要垂直行業(yè)也是領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。

The report also notes that the DCS business has continued to be primarily a service business over the past few years, with combined project, engineering and operational services accounting for more than half of total revenues. The Main Automation Contractor (MAC) approach in which the automation vendor manages the overall project and includes a strong project execution and services component, continues to grow stronger and expand.

該報(bào)告還指出，DCS業(yè)務(wù)在過去幾年仍然是主要的服務(wù)業(yè)務(wù)，綜合項(xiàng)目、工程和運(yùn)營(yíng)服務(wù)占比超過總收入的一半。自動(dòng)化供應(yīng)商以主自動(dòng)化承包商（MAC）的方式管理整個(gè)項(xiàng)目，包括一個(gè)強(qiáng)有力的項(xiàng)目執(zhí)行和服務(wù)組件，在不斷發(fā)展壯大和擴(kuò)展。

“For years ABB has cultivated its capability to serve major projects as the Main Automation Contractor.”, said ARC Senior Analyst Harry Forbes.  “The electric power, motor, and drive capabilities across ABB Group augment its process automation expertise, making the firm an attractive choice when capital projects require large or complex electric power systems, especially offshore and sub-sea systems.”

“多年來，ABB不斷增強(qiáng)其作為主自動(dòng)化承包商服務(wù)重大項(xiàng)目的能力。”ARC高級(jí)分析師Harry Forbes說道，“ABB集團(tuán)的電力、電機(jī)及驅(qū)動(dòng)實(shí)力增強(qiáng)了其過程自動(dòng)化專業(yè)技術(shù)，這就使得那些需要大型或復(fù)雜的電力系統(tǒng)，尤其是海上和海底系統(tǒng)的資本項(xiàng)目，ABB無疑是一個(gè)頗具吸引力的選擇。”

"ABB is well prepared with a broad DCS portfolio including its flagship system 800xA Extended Automation platform, Symphony Plus control system, Freelance process control system for small to medium process applications, as well as its prior generation systems. All ABB control systems offer a secure evolution path forward to next generation technologies to protect and enhance the control system investment over its lifetime” said Tobias Becker, Head of ABB’s Control Technologies business.

ABB控制技術(shù)業(yè)務(wù)部負(fù)責(zé)人Tobias Becker表示：“ABB儲(chǔ)備了廣泛的DCS產(chǎn)品組合，包括其旗艦系統(tǒng)800xA擴(kuò)展自動(dòng)化平臺(tái)，Symphony Plus控制系統(tǒng)，適用于中小型過程應(yīng)用的Freelance過程控制系統(tǒng)，及其前代系統(tǒng)。所有的ABB控制系統(tǒng)為過渡到下一代技術(shù)提供一個(gè)安全的推進(jìn)路徑，從而保護(hù)和提升了在控制系統(tǒng)生命周期的投資。”
