Engineering & Design
Jump to the next level of IT productivity
Applying the same ROI requirement for every dollar spent on IT that is used on non-IT spending, management can dramatically turn potentially huge capital drains into great gains
Minimize flaring with flare gas recovery
To reduce facility-wide air emission, a refinery retrofitted the flare system and reuses waste gas as fuel gas
Increase plant productivity through online performance monitoring
The technology can increase production by 1 - 3% and reduce unplanned maintenance costs by 10 - 30%
Consider comprehensive CPD efforts to cut costs
With performance real-time field data, designers can devise process retrofits at the conceptual stage that control project scope and minimize engineering revisions during FEED and detailed engineering
