COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Sept. 30, 2008 – Honeywell (NYSE:HON) today announced it has won a contract to install a new process safety system at DONG Oil Pipe A/S' facility in West Jylland, Denmark. The eighteen-month project sees the replacement of existing systems with Honeywell's Safety Manager, which is expected to enhance the already excellent performance and safety levels at the site.
DONG Oil Pipe A/S is wholly-owned by DONG Energy A/S Oil Company, one of the leading energy groups in Northern Europe. The company is focused on procuring, producing, distributing and selling energy and related products in Northern Europe.
