Refinery Scheduling
Maximize margins
with better collaboration and decision making. Increase visibility for a comprehensive, refinery-wide view of the schedule by simultaneously scheduling all key activities from within a single platform.
Reduced
operational target changes by up to 70%
Increased refinery margin by about 10 cents per barrel, about 8.5 M$ per year
Reduce operating costs
by distributing feedstock and products to the right location at the best price
Minimizes cost of supply and helps make strategic business decisions
Reduce off-spec blends and quality giveaway
by simultaneously optimizing
multi-period blends for short and
long-term campaigns.
Reduced quality
giveaway by 70%
Key Performance Indicator (KPIs)
monitoring in real-time through a set of predefined dashboards and alerting. Improved visibility and real-time monitoring of important business KPIs to drive performanceimprovements.
2% reduction
in energy costs through monitoring
Reduce operating costs
24-hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week, looking for exact patterns. Pattern recognition using machine learning allows provides warnings weeks or months earlier, allowing time to schedule repairs and order parts, make production and inventory adjustments to prevent losses.
Executed a project in weeks that predicted equipment failures up to 45 days in advance, increasing revenue and reducing operating
