Abstract
A system for historical data acquisition and on-line analysis of the measurements of temperature, pressure and flow rate is presented. The system collects information from about eighty measurement points including all the wellheads and the power plant inlets connected to the Larderello steam gathering nework. A description of the instrumentation and the radio polling method utilized as well as the software package for the storage, analysis and presentation of the historical data are described. Evaluations of the operation of the systemwill also be presented.
