PROCESS PLANT CHALLENGES


ALARM LIMITS

How do you reduce false alarms displaying throughout your manufacturing process?
How do you properly position alarm limits to increase safety, efficiency and
throughput whilst reducing operator costs?


REDUCING DOWNTIME

How are you identifying the frequency of events that lead to downtime? Do you
have the best early warning detection for your operators? Are you making
informed changes to your process to reduce the frequency of downtime?


RUNNING COSTS

Can you identify methods of improving the overall performance of your
organization's production that will reduce the energy consumption and your
overall expenses? How do you monitor live data to identify early warnings?


PLANT MAINTENANCE

Not being able to predict plant maintenance issues can be very expensive. Do you
have early warnings in place to plan preventive maintenance?




ENERGY REDUCTION

With global pressures to meet lower emissions targets and significantly
increasing energy prices, do you know how to use your plant historian data to
quickly and effectively reduce your process energy usage?


PRODUCT QUALITY

Maintaining high product quality standards is a constant challenge. How do you
detect a manufacturing process starting to deviate from the golden batch
envelope?




ACCELERATE YOUR DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION


YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO WAIT

When your plant needs are complex, the solutions can be overwhelming.

Our software will get you the roadmap you need:

01


ASSESS YOUR PLANT HISTORIAN

Starting with your organization's existing plant historian, we can identify the
optimal next steps to improve your most challenging issues.

02


OPTIMISE & DEVELOP AN INTELLIGENT OPERATING ENVELOPE FOR ALL YOUR PRODUCTION
LINES

Our experts can work with your engineers to explore and interrogate large
datasets, meet with your subject matter experts and engineers to teach practices
to visualise real-time process modelling, create operating envelopes and
optimise your plant’s transformation processes.

03


HARNESS ALL THE BENEFITS OF OUR MODERN TECHNOLOGY

Utilise the power of CVE & CPM and see how your plant harnesses the power of
this unique technology to meet KPI's, increase efficiency and improve plant
safety.

THE MOST POWERFUL INTERROGATION & VISUALISATION TECHNOLOGY

Our two software tools. CVE & CPM, combine unique powerful technologies, to
offer industry-leading interrogation tools for subject experts to fulfil their
insatiable curiosity across process plant operations and visualise real-time
process modelling to predict & manage future plant performance.

DISCOVER HOW TO RUN OPTIMISED INTELLIGENT
PROCESS PLANT OPERATIONS:


ANALYZE

Explore, Interrogate and identify areas of improvement from your plant's past
performance. See your entire plant process in one visualization tool. What makes
CVE unique is the thousands of variants from multiple datasets brought together
to be analysed at the same time. With advanced filtering options, you can
discover new insights and patterns that can truly make a difference.


IMPROVE

Once you identify actionable improvements in your process, you can begin
optimising your operating envelope and set new alarm limits. Using CVE to
visualize each and every part of the production process, enables actionable
behaviours or small corrections to be made at all levels of the plant.




MONITOR

Get real-time alerts through CPM to keep your process in-line. The software
monitors your process 24/7 and visually updates all operating variables within
our visualisation tool to alert and prevent production issues. Control engineers
have access to a display that tells, at a glance, whether the process is under
control and operating within set operating envelopes. In alarm systems, CPM
generates alerts that have the objective of keeping the process inside the fixed
HiLo Alarm Limits found by CVE, allowing an increased level of process safety.


CONTROL

Manage your plants ongoing performance with full operational insights by
combining CVE & CPM. Utilising these powerful technologies on a daily basis,
allows control engineers to run intelligent operations that maximise performance
output, meet many KPI's and minimise safety risks. As the digitization of
process plant continues, PPCL offer solutions and techniques that enable true
data-driven decisions for improving all areas of your plant's production.

TESTIMONIALS

“CVE improved our process efficiency by 2% in the first 3 weeks of operation.
Reduced plant start-up time by a factor of 6.”

Plant Systems Manager
“The PPCL team, led by Dr Alan Mahoney, demonstratined outstanding expertise in
understanding our processes and the complexities of our alarm system issues. CVE
proved an invaluable tool in analysing multiple variables and setting alarm and
operating limits across our four trains. It significantly reduced the
preparation time for alarm rationalization and provided the team with an
additional technical assurance on the alarm values selected.”

S, N - Project Lead and EI&C Engineer II
“I spotted CVE five or six years ago and thought it might be just the tool I
needed to tease a fine (but very valuable) optimisation out of a noisy process.
We knew simulation couldn’t do it – there’s a “black box” in the process that we
can’t model with sufficient accuracy – but the answer was there in the data
somewhere. We eventually convinced our organisation to try this tool late one
year and used it in the first half of the next year to analyse our process. It
worked! We expect that within 12 months we will have paid back the investment in
CVE by over 100 fold!”

D, H - Principal Process Engineer
“C Visual Explorer showed us the real performance different between two
identical process units in a way that everyone could understand – and then told
us how to change our operations to correct it.”

B, D - Production Manager
“CVE improved our process efficiency by 2% in the first 3 weeks of operation.
Reduced plant start-up time by a factor of 6.”
