Controls

Technology and Experience
Control system technology is changing rapidly.  Modern control systems have new features and capabilities that can help you maximize production efficiency, reduce downtime, and minimize your control-related costs.  Sega has unmatched track record applying all of today's leading control system products on dozens of successful projects.

For over 30 years we have recruited the best and brightest control engineering talent and enabled them to perform at their highest level.  As a result, we have a unique core group of dedicated control professionals and an open, friendly working relationship with our clients.

We develop solutions that improve process performance, extend equipment life, and maximize fuel savings through advanced control system design and integration.  We solve your complex process and control problems using state-of-the-art technology to leverage our considerable experience in this field.

Control System Upgrades
A quality control system upgrade improves the reliability, thermal performance, and maintainability of the plant.  Operators receive the information they need when they need it.  You will be able to respond to more stringent environmental regulations.  Plant trips can be reduced or eliminated.  The tangible benefit to you is improved overall operating performance and a positive impact on your bottom line.

Our Approach
We use a unique design, procurement, and staging process that has proven advantages in cost, schedule, and results compared to a traditional A/E firm approach.  We apply best-in-class equipment and our hands-on experience to produce control solutions that are reliable, scalable, and open.  You will have unequaled visibility to how your control system is being configured.  We customize each project for your unique requirements. 

Flexibility
Whether you need a single-loop controller or a complete I&C design for a new coal-fired power plant, we can provide a top-to-bottom solution.
