Iranian Technologists Design, Produce Smart Fire Extinguishing Systems for Docks
“Ten years ago, with the aim of meeting the needs of the country's oil and gas industry, we entered the scene. In line with that goal, relying on the knowledge and creativity of our young experts, we took great steps towards innovation and self-sufficiency. One of our matter of pride was the construction of Iran's first loading arm in 2012, which was installed and launched at Imam Khomeini Port. This achievement was considered a turning point in the history of the country's oil and gas industry and was an important step towards getting rid of dependence on the import of equipment in this field,” said Reza Naghili Hokm Abadi, the CEO of the Iranian knowledge-based company about their products in an interview with local Iranian media.
He stated that the construction of marine loading arms for cryogenics was one of their other achievements in recent years, which shows the capabilities of Iranian experts to create new technologies and solve complex challenges in the oil and gas industry, and noted, "Our recent important achievement is the design and implementation of the smart fire extinguishing system for oil and gas loading docks.”
He also said that the Iranian Vice Presidency for Science and Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy assigned them with the project to design and build the smart fire extinguishing system, adding, “National Petrochemical Industries Company, as the employer, helped us in carrying out the project.”
“Our intelligent fire extinguishing system is fully intelligently programmed and can put out fires at the very early stages without the need for an operator,” Hokm Abadi said.
According to him, this achievement, which is considered a great improvement in the field of oil and gas industry safety, can be used in other sectors that face the fire risk.
