Refinery scheduling is a high-stress job, with many demands on time and attention due to unexpected events. Schedulers often struggle even to maintain operationally feasibility, let alone optimise throughput, align with production plans, or meet environmental or emissions targets. However, there is a better way that uses Artificial Intelligence! It is called AVEVA Schedule AI Assistant!...
There are three key questions that every Owner Operator and their Engineering, Procurement, and Construction contractors (EPCs) should ask before embarking on their next capital project. Start preparing for your next greenfield project with some guidance from this blog. ...
It is already exceedingly difficult to manage both efficiency and operational agility, especially with distributed operations and a workforce generation shift. The key is to maintain and enhance practices for systematically reducing process and quality losses, while continuously improving operational effectiveness and productivity. ...
Chances are that you have some form of training and knowledge capture program. In some cases, the training program was established when your plant was first commissioned. You may even feel your training program is adequate for you, but how do you make sure you are fulfilling your plant’s and employee’s need?...

These core solutions provide all the necessary tools for plant/field, control room, and enterprise teams to drive actionable information, collaborate effectively, and accelerate operational excellence. ...
Whether it’s optimizing quality or production, material yields, or energy consumption, artificial intelligence adds another set of “eyes” when our focus may be elsewhere. AI adds another lens with which to optimize our process....
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud computing blend in diverse ways to accomplish better, faster, more efficient engineering and operations capabilities for Oil and Gas. Beyond failures anticipation, with the initiative of Net Zero Carbon, AI can assist in improvements, including reductions in flaring and fuel consumption for compression, facilities, and company vehicles....
AVEVA has committed to set 1.5°C-aligned emission reduction targets across all scopes and reach science-based net-zero emissions by 2050. In addition to leading by example on emissions mitigation, we are speeding up the realization of a net-zero future by enhancing the suite of software solutions we offer our customers to enable them to reduce their carbon footprints....
What can your business do to recruit and retain top talent on the plant floor? AVEVA has some ideas for how you can identify your challenges and find solutions to the problem of workforce attrition. ...
A hybrid architecture for operations control goes beyond a simple on-premise HMI/SCADA system to expand operations control across an entire enterprise rather than a single site. It distributes applications better suited for the cloud, in addition to data gathering and local control on the plant floor to expand accessibility to information, provide disaster recovery, and reduce hardware footprint....
