London, United Kingdom – Modcon Systems Ltd., a specialist in advanced process analyzers, automation and industrial AI optimization solutions, has been awarded Best Industrial Process Analytics & Hydrogen Technology Company 2026 and the AI-Driven Process Optimisation Excellence Award 2026.
Trusted by Fortune 100 energy and industrial companies, Modcon combines advanced process analyzers, automation and industrial AI to improve real-time decision-making, product quality, efficiency, safety and environmental performance across energy-intensive process industries.
These awards recognise Modcon’s continued contribution to industrial process analytics, hydrogen safety, real-time monitoring and AI-supported process optimisation. The company’s technologies are used in applications including hydrogen production, refining, petrochemicals, natural gas processing, flare gas monitoring, crude oil analysis, fuel blending and emissions-related process control.
In addition to these awards, Modcon’s entry, “Real-Time In-Situ Oxygen Measurement for Safety-Critical High-Pressure Gas Systems,” has been shortlisted in the Innovative Sensor or Instrumentation Deployment Category. The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on 16 September at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole, with the ceremony starting at 18:30.
The shortlisted entry focuses on the role of fast, reliable in-situ oxygen measurement in high-pressure and safety-critical gas applications. Oxygen measurement is a key requirement in hydrogen production, flare gas monitoring, natural gas processing, petrochemical operations, industrial gas systems and other hazardous process environments where oxygen concentration can directly affect safety, reliability and process control.
Unlike traditional extractive analyzer systems, in-situ oxygen analysis can reduce sampling complexity by measuring directly at the process point. This can help operators improve response time, reduce maintenance requirements and achieve better visibility of changing process conditions. In high-pressure gas systems, fast oxygen measurement is particularly important for early detection of abnormal operating conditions and for supporting safer plant operation.
Modcon’s industrial AI solutions are designed to work above traditional DCS, APC and RTO layers, using real-time process data, time-series AI, multivariate anomaly detection and optimisation algorithms to support earlier process intelligence. In refinery and petrochemical applications, reliable online analyzer data is essential because AI-based optimisation depends on accurate live information about process composition, crude oil quality, gas quality and changing operating constraints.
“We are pleased to receive this recognition for our work in industrial process analytics, hydrogen technology and AI-driven process optimisation,” said Gregory Shahnovsky, President and CEO of Modcon Systems Ltd. “Our focus is to help industrial operators move from delayed laboratory data and fragmented process information to real-time, actionable intelligence. Reliable process analyzer data is the foundation for safer, more efficient and more sustainable industrial operation.”
As hydrogen production and energy transition projects continue to expand, the need for accurate real-time gas analysis is increasing. Hydrogen plants, electrolyzers, industrial gas networks and renewable fuel facilities require robust oxygen and hydrogen measurement technologies to support safety, quality control and operational efficiency. Modcon’s analyzer systems are developed for demanding industrial environments where fast response, hazardous area certification, high-pressure capability and long-term reliability are critical.
The awards also reflect Modcon’s broader strategy of connecting field-proven analyzer hardware with automation and industrial AI. By combining online process analysis with digital optimisation, Modcon supports industrial facilities in reducing process variability, improving product consistency, increasing energy efficiency, strengthening safety systems and lowering environmental impact.
