The design and implementation of these tools and the infrastructure's underpinning smartness can differ on the basis of oilfield conditions. Greenfields, for example, can be engineered upfront to leverage all tools and deliver smart-field value from the beginning of the asset's life. On the other hand, smart-field tools and infrastructure for brownfields would be designed selectively and be implemented on the basis of several engineering and economic considerations.

The addition of these measures will increase the cost of both design and construction but the increase in cost will be lower than adding them after design. Even though control systems architecture is becoming more like IT systems, there are major differences that must be recognized and applied during the engineering design and implementation. This paper presents design considerations for control and safety systems in new infrastructure projects.
