ARC says Process Safety System market to grow 12%
 
ARC預測過程安全係統市場年增長率為12%

The strong growth of the Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS) market will continue in 2008. However, due to the downturn of the economy in North America the growth rate will be somewhat tempered in subsequent years. The worldwide market, which is around $1.4 billion in 2007, is expected to grow at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 12% per year to over $2.5 billion in 2012, according to a new ARC Advisory Group study, “Process Safety System Worldwide Outlook – Market Analysis and Forecast Through 2012.“

安全儀器係統市場的強大增長在2008年將繼續保持。然而，由於北美經濟的低迷，增長率將在隨後的幾年有所放緩。根據一份ARC谘詢集團新的研究報告“過程安全係統全球展望——至2012年期間的市場分析與預測”一文表示，全球市場在2007年大約有14億美元
，預計將以超過12%的綜合年度增長率的速度增長，至2012年
，市場總量將超過25億美元。

“The safety system market has experienced unprecedented growth for the last two years. Increased demand for oil and gas due to the economic growth of China and India along with the high price of crude oil is fueling investments in oil and gas production and in refining, leading to increased demand for safety systems,” according to ARC Vice President Asish Ghosh, the principal author of the study.

ARC副總裁、該研究報告的主要作者sish Ghosh表示：“安(an)全(quan)係(xi)統(tong)市(shi)場(chang)在(zai)過(guo)去(qu)兩(liang)年(nian)經(jing)曆(li)了(le)前(qian)所(suo)未(wei)有(you)的(de)增(zeng)長(chang)。由(you)於(yu)中(zhong)國(guo)和(he)印(yin)度(du)的(de)經(jing)濟(ji)增(zeng)長(chang)引(yin)起(qi)石(shi)油(you)和(he)天(tian)然(ran)氣(qi)需(xu)求(qiu)的(de)增(zeng)長(chang)

Increased Demand Due to Greater Awareness of Standards and High Profile Incidents
對標準的更多認識以及重大工業事故導致需求增長

Greater awareness of safety standards, such as IEC 61508, IEC 61511, and ANSI/ISA-84, and global environmental awareness is increasing the demand for safety systems. Additionally, high profile industrial accidents, such as in the BP Texas refinery in the USA and in the Buncefield terminal in the UK, have increased the sense of vulnerability among manufacturers, leading to increased demand for safety systems. In North America and Western Europe, the obsolescence of older equipment is also leading to greater demands for safety systems.

Increasing Importance of Safety Lifecycle Management
安全生命周期管理的重要性越來越大

All major safety standards have specified safety lifecycles, which show considerable similarities, differing only in the details. The safety lifecycle, specified by the IEC 61511 standard, shows a systematic approach to safety starting from a hazard and risk analysis to implementation of the safety system and finally to its decommissioning. With the increased awareness in safety standards, the demand for software that helps in managing the safety lifecycle is growing rapidly. Many SIS suppliers and third parties, such as system integrators, offer custom consulting in these areas. However, SIS users are now looking for packaged solutions that may help them comply with the standard.

Opportunities Lie in Asian and Middle Eastern Markets
機會在於亞洲和中東市場

The EMEA region is the largest market for safety systems, followed by Asia and North America. With the booming economy of China and India, the Asian region will show highest growth. The EMEA region will also show a large growth in the market as the high price of crude oil will lead to significant investments in grass-root facilities in the Middle East and parts of Europe.

EMEA（歐洲、中東和非洲）地區是安全係統最大的市場，其次是亞洲和北美市場。隨著中國和印度經濟的蓬勃發展
，亞洲地區將出現最高的增長率。EMEA地區隨著原油價格的高漲，將導致在中東和歐洲部分地區對基礎設施的大量投資，該市場也將出現較大的增長。
