Description:
Plant operators need deep training before the greenfield plant is started-up. Moreover, companies need to diminish potential operational problems related to the equipment sizing, control logic and safety systems by performing early analysis during the engineering design phases.
These objectives can be accomplished by developing dynamic simulation models of the future operating plant during the early stages (e.g. conceptual design or FEED) of the project and re-using them during all the stages of the project, including the analysis of the critical unit, equipment sizing, operational procedures development, ICSS virtual commissioning, operators training, support to plant start-up, and finally, as Digital Twin support Operations and even Maintenance.
