Jointly developed for the process industry by Siemens and Bentley, PlantSight is an open, cloud-based solution that makes it possible to collect, connect, contextualize, validate and make use of all existing plant data. It creates a complete, reliable and updated digital twin of a plant, not only integrating 1D, 2D and 3D data, but also bringing visibility to dark data, which is a type of unstructured and unlinked data.
The speakers will cover a real user experience, showing how PlantSight made it possible to achieve a new level of collaboration across all disciplines and all levels. They will discuss how new cloud services are changing the way they work, and how this is enabling them to derive and deliver greater value from their assets and resources.

Asia drives global LNG demand!
LNG exporters to Asia have a slew of challenges to contend with, including the prospect for project sanction delays, demand-side factors impacted by global health scares, relative economic underperformance and trade disputes and wars. Constraints continue as the global natural gas prices keep decreasing.
In this webcast we will discuss:
- Key drivers, challenges, and the impact on the Asian LNG capacity investment thru 2025.
- The effects of potential oil-linked vs hub-based pricing in the Asian project economic context.
- Critical factors supporting or inhibiting project progression.
- A five-year outlook on anticipated capacity expansion for key Asian LNG import nations, including China, Japan, India, and South Korea.

With demand for alkylate rising, Lummus Technology’s CDAlky® gasoline alkylation process is a versatile solution for refiners utilizing readily available feedstocks to produce motor fuel alkylate. The low temperature sulfuric acid alkylation process reacts light olefin streams from a variety of sources such as fluid catalytic cracking units and steam cracking units together with isoparaffins to produce high performance motor fuel alkylate.
Central to the CDAlky process is an advanced reaction system design that significantly improves mass transfer relative to conventional contactors without using moving parts inside the reactor. The CDAlky reaction system operates at substantially lower temperatures than conventional alkylation processes, thus minimizing undesired side-reactions. CDAlky is therefore able to produce a higher quality alkylate product while consuming significantly less acid than conventional technologies. As CDAlky does not require rotating mixers or caustic/water post-treatment steps, the process is far less complex than conventional designs, thereby reducing initial capital cost, minimizing maintenance expense, and improving operational reliability.
Lummus Technology successfully commercialized the CDAlky process in 2013, and since then, interest in the technology has expanded dramatically. Lummus has established a strong position in the marketplace with 14 licensed units in place, and additional opportunities in the proposal and design pipeline. This webcast will introduce the key advantages of the CDAlky technology and will present options for improving refining operations by adopting this flexible, innovative technology.

Dynamics Scientific Production Center has spent nearly 3 decades developing the COMPACS System for real-time machinery diagnostics in process facilities. With the COMPACS System, you can achieve optimal reliability through real-time monitoring of vibration as well as other parameters. Through the system’s Artificial Intelligence, process facility teams will get real-time feedback on the health of machinery as well as specific prescriptions for maintenance and repair before catastrophic issues occur. The system detects and identifies root causes of malfunctions several minutes, hours or even days before equipment failure.
When it comes to the reliability of equipment in process facilities, it is imperative that operators, managers, and maintenance teams have a clear picture of each machine’s health in real-time. COMPACS represents a paradigm shift from sudden equipment failures to early detection and identification of issues. What does this mean for your facility?
You can virtually eliminate all accidents and fires and knowing the real-time health of all the equipment in your facility empowers you to schedule maintenance and repairs in the most cost-effective manner possible.
