Abstract: the objects of a large-scale gas-transport company (GTC) suggest a complex unified evolutionary approach, which covers basic building concepts, up-to-date technologies, models, methods and means that are used in the phases of design, adoption, maintenance and development of the multilevel automated distributed control systems (ADCS).. As a single methodological basis of the suggested approach three basic Concepts, which contain the basic methodological principles and conceptual provisions on the creation of distributed control systems, were worked out: systems of the lower level (ACS of the technological processes based on up-to-date SCADA), of the middle level (ACS of the operative-dispatch production control based on MES-systems) and of the high level (business process control on the basis of complex automated systems ERP).

Keywords: gas-transport company, distributed control system, concept of the creation of the complex distributed control system, unified integration platform, adaptive expandable data-pump, modified FDD-design-technology, evolutionary strategy, corporate maintenance methodology.

ACM Classification Keywords: H.4.2 Types of Systems
