Abstract: A pump system includes an interface detection meter (380) arranged at a pipeline assembly (350), a drive assembly (322, 324) for controlling speed of a pump (302, 304, 306, 308) arranged at the pipeline assembly (350), a discharge pressure control assembly and/or flow control assembly for controlling discharge pressure of the pump system, and a control assembly (382, 384, 386, 388, 390, 392, 396) operably coupled to the drive assembly (322, 324) and/or the discharge pressure control assembly and/or the flow control assembly. A logic control (382) of the control assembly (382, 384, 386, 388, 390, 392, 396) receives fluid data provided by the interface detection meter (380), and forwards the fluid data for calculating speed set points for the drive assembly (322, 324) and/or discharge pressure control parameter and/or set points for the discharge pressure control assembly, and/or flow rate control set points for the flow control assembly.

Abstract: A method and controller for operating a pumping station. The method includes receiving (1102), by at least one controller (910, 952), sensor data (712) of a first pumping station (900) corresponding to a liquid being transported from the first pumping station (900). The method includes predicting (1104) arrival of the liquid, by the at least one controller (910, 952), at a second pumping station (900). The method includes executing (1106) one or more pump models (720), by the at least one controller (910, 952), according to the sensor data (712) to determine an optimal pumping configuration. The method includes operating (1108) one more pumps of the second pumping station (900), by the at least one controller (910, 952), according to the optimal pumping configuration.

Abstract: A method and controller for creating a digital twin of a pump. The method includes receiving, by a controller, a specification curve corresponding to a centrifugal pump. The method includes building and executing, by the controller, a first model of the centrifugal pump, based on the specification curve. The method includes receiving sensor data corresponding to and during the operation of the pump. The method includes updating the first model according to the sensor data to produce an updated model and storing the updated model as a digital twin of the centrifugal pump.

Abstract: The pump systems (pump + driver) used in a pump station are selected based on the type of fluid or batch. The selection is of the more efficient pump systems for that batch. Less efficient pumps are avoided. When a new batch is detected, the selection is performed again for that new batch, which may result in a different combinations of pump systems for a given pump station. If variable speed pump drives are available, the efficiency at the desired speed is used for selection. The cost of energy (utilities) by pump station may alternatively or additionally be used to select the speed or combination of pump systems. The pump station and pipeline operation is optimized for efficiency of pump systems and/or cost of energy (utilities) for the different pump systems based on pipeline inventory and local utilities tariffs.

泵站中使用的泵系统（泵+驱动器）根据流体或批次的类型进行选择。 选择的是该批次更高效的泵系统。 避免效率较低的泵。 当检测到新的批次时，将再次对新批次执行选择，这可能会导致给定泵站的泵系统的不同组合。 如果变速泵驱动器可用，则以期望速度的效率用于选择。 泵站的能量（效用）成本可以替代地或附加地用于选择泵系统的速度或组合。 基于管道库存和当地公用设施关税，泵站和管道运行针对泵系统的效率和/或不同泵系统的能源（公用设施）的成本进行了优化。
