DEMO · Synthetic operating records as at 28 October 2026. Not live telemetry, actual contracts, inspection evidence or operational authority.
Pilot due diligence and model transparency only. This board does not confirm hosting residency, cyber assurance, standards certification, connected OT architecture or authority to operate.

Proposed data-review boundary

Discussion diagram only. It does not demonstrate any connected feed, deployment location, enforced read-only path or control-system isolation.

  2. Approved export / staging
  3. Validated analytical copy
  4. Human decision and evidence

Procurement and pilot review gates

Requirements to evidence, not configured hosting options, passed controls or a security assessment.

Hosting, residency and support access Evidence required

Accountable reviewer: Channel IT / procurement

Obtain contractual evidence for primary storage, backups, processing locations, subprocessors, privileged support access and exit/export arrangements. No NZ-only hosting, customer tenancy or on-premise deployment is confirmed by this board.

OT boundary and interfaces Evidence required

Accountable reviewer: Channel OT / cyber lead

Approve zones, conduits, data ownership, export direction, intermediary controls and change management before any interface is connected. Confirm the permitted architecture with the vendor; an illustration is not a deployed data diode or proof of isolation.

Information security assurance Evidence required

Accountable reviewer: Channel cyber lead

Review relevant independent assurance, certificate scope and dates, penetration-test findings, access reviews, incident processes and recovery evidence. A standards reference is not certification or evidence that a control is effective.

Privacy and cross-border processing Evidence required

Accountable reviewer: Privacy officer / legal

Confirm data minimisation, retention, access rights, contractual safeguards and applicable Privacy Act 2020 obligations, including overseas disclosure where relevant. Keep real personal and sensitive operational data out of public DEMO records.

Operational authority and model approval Evidence required

Accountable reviewer: Accountable asset owner

Approve the operating basis, model applicability, uncertainty, data freshness, human decision rights and independent post-work acceptance. DEMO screens do not authorise a start, excavation, derating or return to service.

Standards and applicability review
IEC 62443
Review industrial security zones and conduits for any proposed OT interface; applicability and controls require specialist approval.
ISO/IEC 27001
Ask for current independent evidence, its scope and exceptions; no certification is asserted here.
ISO 55001
Use asset ownership, lifecycle decision traceability and evidence-led assurance as review topics, not a certification claim.
NZ operational framework
Confirm the actual Certificate of Fitness scope, approved pipeline integrity plan, applicable tank standards, consent conditions and site procedures. Major Hazard Facility designation is not inferred.

Channel model cards · inspect assumptions before use

Implementation descriptions, not validated performance or certification. Approved site criteria, OEM limits and accountable engineering decisions take precedence.

Liquid-release volume

Constant-pressure incompressible free-jet screening

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Assumed gauge pressure, equivalent opening, density, discharge coefficient and duration; optional user inventory cap.

Not established: No actual incident prediction, flashing/two-phase discharge, vapour dispersion, fire consequence, safe-zone determination or verified isolation.

Open model and source basis

Air and vapour evidence

Species / method / time-boundary review

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Evidence requirements for VOCs, external methane observations and annual GHG activity; related saved synthetic energy sources.

Not established: No satellite or ambient observation feed, source attribution, methane/VOC equivalence, concentration prediction or compliance verdict.

Open model and source basis

Liquid pipeline pressure

Darcy–Weisbach, steady-state incompressible screening

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Flow, assumed diameter/density/friction, elevation, inlet and delivery pressure; 170 km brief length.

Not established: No surge, transient leak model, surveyed route, validated MAOP or operating approval. Synthetic defaults are not measured conditions.

Open model and source basis

Liquid-transfer pumping

Assumed pump/system curves and hydraulic power

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Speed, density, efficiency, operating hours and electricity price; assumed curve coefficients.

Not established: No OEM curve validation, dynamic control, NPSH/cavitation approval or verified energy savings.

Open model and source basis

3D metal-loss review

Modified B31G screening plus representative geometry

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Saved synthetic ILI dimensions/material/pressure; adjustable assumed growth, visual width and internal/external display.

Not established: No actual reconstructed scan, calibrated growth forecast, acceptance threshold or repair authority.

Open model and source basis

Field-depth comparison

ILI versus remaining-wall-derived loss

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Saved DEMO ILI source and browser-only field draft with reference wall, remaining wall and report/calibration references.

Not established: No automatic sync, real field verification, fitted growth recalibration or tool-accuracy claim.

Open model and source basis

Receipt-to-dispatch value flow

Single-parcel volume balance and timing exposure

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Existing DEMO marine parcel, entered dispatch split, window/interruption and optional NZD/ML tariff.

Not established: No commodity margin, contract verification, working-ullage check or booked/annualised saving.

Open model and source basis

Energy and emissions

Activity × factor, with separate shadow valuation

Inputs and limitations

Basis: DEMO EnergyStream annual activity, explicit factor/price and reporting boundary; assumed electricity reduction.

Not established: No official inventory or VOC-to-methane conversion; missing factors stay unquantified. Loaded records define scope.

Open model and source basis

Tank conversion planning

Cost allowance and outage-date arithmetic

Inputs and limitations

Basis: Cleaning, inspection and modification allowances; contingency and start/outage assumptions.

Not established: Private planning draft only; no accepted compatibility, permits, design change or commissioning release.

Open model and source basis

Saved DEMO assurance scope

These are saved synthetic evidence-gap packs, not real certificates, independently accepted reports or a readiness score. Missing evidence is not proof that an operating asset is non-compliant.

Before pilot approval

Channel’s IT/OT and privacy reviewers should agree the permitted deployment, data boundary and access arrangements against vendor evidence. The accountable engineering owner should approve each model’s purpose, source freshness and verification plan before operational use.
