Digital Exclusive: The biggest obstacle to the refinery of the future is a mindset shift
Barring a few exemplary cases, refineries continue to rely heavily on manual interventions, reactive maintenance and periodic optimization reviews, leaving enormous value trapped inside their own processes.
AMETEK Spectro Scientific introduces TruVu 360™ Fluid IQ analytics and intelligence solution
Onsite oil analysis is essential for keeping critical assets running reliably. However, traditional approaches often rely on delayed lab results, fixed sampling intervals and test data viewed in isolation. These constraints can obscure emerging issues and make it difficult to predict when change is coming.
