- 12:30 PM - 01:00 PM
James Haw: Vice President of Automation and Digital Strategy, Operations Technology Specialists, LLC
- If the lifecycle of a plant could be compressed into a single day, engineering, and constructing that plant would occur over breakfast. And as they say, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. To take this analogy a step further, what is eaten for breakfast can potentially a�ect how lunch and dinner goes. In other words, a terrible breakfast could lead to a terrible day - lunch and dinner are had through bad choices.
- This goes on, and eventually a transformation is needed. And like all digital transformations, they are painful and expensive. And this “breakfast” doesn’t have to be at The Four Seasons. It can be prepared in the average company’s own kitchen, using tools likely already owned and used
- Getting the digital twin right in the beginning and using it the way it is meant to be used - a key component in today’s Operations Technology - can prevent a costly digital transformation later. It has the capability to push the facility to first-quartile performance much faster than ever expected or envisioned.

Carlos Ruiz: Product Manager, Energy Management Visual MESA, KBC
- Process plants need to consider how the available energy vectors, either traditional or renewables sources, can be produced, distributed, mixed and used by integrating them within or reformulating existing energy systems. The objective is to reduce both costs, and GHGs emissions. Selecting which energy source should be used at any given time depends on having data related to all the possible options. Data values could fluctuate in time, depending on power price, weather conditions, renewable sources availability, etc.
- For large-scale O&G plants, energy normally accounts for 50% of operating expenses. Consequently, reducing energy use by 10% can often improve margins by 5%. As companies seek to maintain profits and reduce emissions, energy optimization is one of the first places to look.
- In a renewable dominated scenario, due to the variability of the climate factors impacting the power generation, energy storage mechanisms should be available to capture the surplus and be used as a backup when renewable generation is expected to decline. A decision is to be taken, in real-time, about when to fill or deplete the storage and when to activate internal power production. A great challenge for the person or group in charge of optimally managing the energy system is the change in traditional mind set and optimization objectives. This kind of analysis cannot be done manually to the extent and with the necessary speed for a large and complex facility, especially when renewables are involved. Using a real-time, model based, Digital Twin approach, can consider both the sources and uses of energy, making it possible to optimize selections well beyond conventional energy and emissions reduction efforts.
