  instrumentation can cut pump repair costs, minimize failures and reduce downtime — resulting in payback within a few months

Smart Commissioning is a technology-enabled process that drastically reduces commissioning time and effort decoupling the physical I/O design from the functional design. See how the advancements are far reaching and improve the full commissioning process from system design, to device binding and configuration, to testing and documentation.

In today’s press, there is no shortage of theories pertaining to oil price and associated impacts to the market. For those who are confident in their oil price predictions, we wish you the best in your lucrative and early retirement. For everyone else, it’s not a matter of certainty, but a focus on playing the odds. In order to safely risk your money, it's important to understand the various scenarios and look for improvement strategies.

This white paper explains how oil, petrochemical, and chemical facilities have complex systems with many potential points of failure, even the smallest of which can increase cost and risk if left untended. In order to identify and improve weak points in a system, a methodology must be applied in a consistent manner. Six Sigma, DMAIC, is a data-driven improvement cycle that achieve measurable, reproducible results. By applying Six Sigma principles, areas of cost and risk can be identified and rectified.

This white paper series analyzes the challenges operation teams are facing and the solutions they can leverage to achieve an efficient and productive path to improved operations performance. Explore six approaches using technology and service innovations that can improve operational efficiencies and run your plant more efficiently.

The new Sequential Multi-Objective Optimization (SMO) technology available in Aspen DMC3 is a step change improvement over traditional APC optimizers. The new algorithm enables users to specify APC controller objectives thereby eliminating any LP cost tuning. In this whitepaper learn how advances in APC technology enables engineers to eliminate tuning workflows for the entire lifecycle of the controller.

In today’s competitive marketplace, more efficiently delivering capital projects throughout the project lifecycle can be the difference between profit and loss.

Discover how you can deliver both conceptual and detailed estimates in weeks instead of months and how this enables you to increase competitive edge and responsiveness.
