Abstract: A fact that no one will dispute is that the Gas Industry is undergoing dramatic changes. These changes include the development of a competitive environment and the marketing of gas as a commodity. The changes are placing more demand on the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) Systems used by the industry. The SCADA industry itself also is experiencing rapid changes by apphcation of intelligence to transducers, RTUs assuming more control, and workstations replacing central computers. This raises the question: How do we, as planners and designers, increase our probability of success? The answer lies in the implementation of General Systems Theory (GST). This paper will develop this answer by examining why and where GST can be used reviewing GST history, context, and definitions reviewing GST concepts, methodology, and techniques examining the relationship of GST and SCADA and Hsting helpful hints for rescuing a GST project that begins to disintegrate.
