Capabilities
Productivity
A percentage drop in product yield can cost millions to the company bottom line.
- Improve Reactor loop conditions to extend catalyst run lengths and yield maximizations.
- Extend Furnace run lengths by predicting the right de-coking cycle thus improve productivity.
Quality
Missed anomaly detection leads to production re-runs & product downgrades.
- With varying feed qualities/supplies, proactively plan the impact on the downstream units.
- Minimize over fractionation in distillation columns to meet the quality of products while compromising on product recovery.
Cost Saving
Any 5% improvement in efficiency can lead to millions in energy cost alone
- Improve distillation train operation to match with changing feed qualities to bring down the specific energy consumption of steam& utilities.
- Predict the fouling rate of critical exchangers and save millions in compressor power.
Reliability
Detection of early deterioration of efficiency is the key to reliability
- Extend uptime, reduce unplanned shutdown of exchangers by predicting fouling rate.
- Proactively assess cracking/reforming severity to prevent downstream costly compressor & exchangers fouling.
- Timely detect rapid coking or inefficient decoking process and prevent unexpected tube failures.
Safety
Predicting Potential Failure is far more important than costly system shutdowns
- Process alarms get lost in the vast flood of data; use of AI can bring insights with dynamic operations to prevent costly safety shutdowns.
- Combine insights from condition monitoring systems, operation severity to decipher asset heath and prevent breakdowns and plant shutdowns.
