Smarter Operations, Now and in the Future
As IIoT/Industrie 4.0 continues to enable smarter equipment that creates increasing amounts of data, chemical companies are faced with both the challenges and opportunities to leverage data to mitigate risk and improve productivity. With predictive analytics insights, personnel know and understand the actual and expected performance for an asset’s current ambient, loading and operating conditions. They know where inefficiencies are and their impact on financial performance and can use this information to understand the impact of performance deficiencies on current and future operations. This information helps users assess the risk and potential consequences associated with each monitored asset and can be used to better prioritize capital and operational expenditures.
