The production and maintenance KPIs modern process plants should use to measure success
Modern petrochemical processing facilities are blessed with overwhelming quantities of data, given the digital transformation taking place throughout the manufacturing industries.
A scalable mechanical integrity program to accelerate the energy transition—Mobile, visual and dynamic
As asset integrity and reliability managers, risk-based inspection (RBI) and corrosion analysts, and inspectors and contract inspection firms across asset-intensive industries look to optimize their mechanical integrity programs, there is a paradigm shift to implement a comprehensive, scalable and sustainable fixed-equipment reliability program to meet increasing reliability demands.
Efficient facilities embrace control system predictive maintenance
Hydrocarbon facilities are operating differently and managing more pressures than they did just 5 yr–10 yr ago.
Contextualize. Analyze. Optimize. Operationalize.
Uncertainty in global hydrocarbon markets has led to the tightening of belts on capital expenditures while new capacity comes online, driving prices lower and pinching profit margins.
