Web-based Operator Training System
Producing plants must be safe and reliable. Plant Safety is strongly dependent on how well people responsible for running the facility (control room operators, CRO) are aware of its operation.

The definition of a Control System in Chemical and Petrochemical Plants requires specific know-how with the target of optimizing and improving existing systems and designing new ones. When designing a system, it is necessary to follow some basic steps such as modelling the system, analysing such model, designing the system/controller and finally
During this project, Inprocess developed a complete flare network revalidation study according to API520 and API521. The common relief scenarios were analysed for all the affected units and the sizing cases were determined in order to perform the revalidation study using dynamic simulation methods.
The oil and gas industry has witnessed seismic downward shifts in barrel prices and uplifts in market competitiveness.
Miquel Angel Alós, explains how dynamic simulation can help maximise plant performance and deliver cost savings on new plant projects.
Inprocess’ experts detailed in this Oral Contribution how it is possible to save OpEx by minimizing the amount of hydrogen that is sent to the fuel network. An advisory tool, based on an optimizer put on top of a simulation model, is used by operating companies to send the correct amount of hydrogen, at the correct purity,
Miquel Angel Alós, PhD, Inprocess, explains how operations teams in the oil and gas industry can use dynamic simulation to avoid disruptions and minimise the impact of unnecessary costs on real plant operations.
Joint oral contribution to the 16th AIChE Spring Meeting, in Houston (TX, USA) in May 2016
The Client had an OTS installed for the FCC unit and was interested in extending the OTS capability to two additional units: ICR and HPU units.
Safety and productivity in processing plants highly depend on the accurate performance of the control and safety systems, normally centralized in control rooms, through the distributed control systems and safety instrumented systems (DCS, SIS). In order to ensure the plant production, it is key to have staff perfectly trained in the operation of such automated systems.
