In Aspen HYSYS V10, experience added amine solvents, expanded glycol dehydration options, and new unit operations in the SRU. Empower decision making with the improved accuracy.

Hydrocarbon Processing editor-in-chief and associate publisher, Lee Nichols, spoke with Paul Donnelly, Industry Marketing Director, Aspentech, on the importance of FEED and critical steps and technologies that can help optimize capital projects.

Six tips are offered that speak to the strengths of ACCE: Eliminated manual tasks, automates repeated tasks, handles change management, leverages historical content and starts the estimating process leveraging conceptual engineering.

Repeatable designs are used increasingly in the process industry to minimize capital costs and reduce project risk and uncertainty. Using the highly integrated aspenONE® Engineering suite, engineering teams can easily capture best practice designs, and rapidly reuse them on new projects.

Learn how SES, one of the leading estimating organizations worldwide, saves 70% manhours using ACCE. SES is responsible for, estimating projects such as SADARA, Suncor Tar Sands, and Mozambique LNG using ACCE.

Refineries and olefin plants are constantly challenged by the gap between their plan and actual plant performance, leaving millions of dollars per year in lost margins on the table. ARC’s Contributing Analyst Peter Reynolds discusses this challenge and why it presents a big opportunity for refineries and chemical companies. In addition, AspenTech’s Henrik Terndrup, Sr. Director of Product Management, will explain how dynamic optimization technology - Aspen GDOT – is helping more than 15 companies meet or even exceed planned targets. View this on-demand webinar to discover how your refinery or olefins facility can improve margins by vertically integrating planning, scheduling and advanced process control in a closed loop.

Cut CAPEX and prevent issues by selecting optimal trays and packings with interactive plots built using correlations and process simulation data.

Shorten cycle time and focus attention on high-value problem areas by correlating performance, downtime and quality to products and equipment.

Increase efficiency and utilization to improve overall equipment effectiveness focus resources on opportunities for performance improvements with OEE.

This vertically integrated solution "unifies" planners, schedulers, operators and even plant engineers to create a fully aligned schedule to increase throughput and drive unprecedented levels of profitability.
