关于客户
AspenTech is a leading software supplier for optimizing asset performance. Their products thrive in complex, industrial environments where it is critical to optimize the asset design, operation and maintenance lifecycle. AspenTech uniquely combines decades of process modelling expertise with machine learning. Their purpose-built software platform automates knowledge work and builds sustainable competitive advantage by delivering high returns over the entire asset lifecycle. As a result, companies in capital-intensive industries can maximize uptime and push the limits of performance, running their assets safer, greener, longer and faster.
挑战
In the chemical, oil, and gas and other process industries, EPC firms are tasked with designing and developing increasingly large and complex installations. EPCs face the challenges of highly competitive bid situations and then delivering those projects within tight budgets and timeframes. After start up, plant owner-operators face challenges related to ensuring efficient operations and maintaining or renewing assets over a period that can stretch into decades. In both cases, solutions such as Aspen Fidelis Reliability can provide significant value through discrete event simulation. The AspenTech solution constructs plant models and runs multiple scenarios to analyze the impact of variables such as equipment capacities, operating logic, and production schedules on system-wide performance over time.
解决方案
Aspen Fidelis Reliability is a discrete event simulation tool that constructs plant models and runs multiple scenarios to analyze the impact of variables such as equipment capacities, operating logic, and production schedules on system-wide performance over time. This helps EPCs and owner-operators gain confidence in their designs and improvement efforts and realize significant financial benefits across all phases of the plant lifecycle. The software uses the Monte Carlo simulation technique, which is based on repeated random sampling to obtain numerical results. This assigns random values to model variables – for example, process downtimes and equipment repair times – based on probability distributions. According to the company, since this approach considers the uncertainty inherent in complex systems, it can provide better solutions than approaches based on deterministic analysis in which fixed values are used for model variables.

Case Study
Taking Oil and Gas Exploration to the Next Level
DownUnder GeoSolutions (DUG) wanted to increase computing performance by 5 to 10 times to improve seismic processing. The solution must build on current architecture software investments without sacrificing existing software and scale computing without scaling IT infrastructure costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.
Case Study
Refinery Saves Over $700,000 with Smart Wireless
One of the largest petroleum refineries in the world is equipped to refine various types of crude oil and manufacture various grades of fuel from motor gasoline to Aviation Turbine Fuel. Due to wear and tear, eight hydrogen valves in each refinery were leaking, and each cost $1800 per ton of hydrogen vented. The plant also had leakage on nearly 30 flare control hydrocarbon valves. The refinery wanted a continuous, online monitoring system that could catch leaks early, minimize hydrogen and hydrocarbon production losses, and improve safety for maintenance.
Case Study
Honeywell - Tata Chemicals Improves Data Accessibility with OneWireless
Tata was facing data accessibility challenges in the cement plant control room tapping signals from remote process control areas and other distant locations, including the gas scrubber. Tata needed a wireless solution to extend its control network securely to remote locations that would also provide seamless communication with existing control applications.
