The Age of
Performance

Total’s operators manage expert, highly technical chemical processes, where incorrect decisions can be costly — and dangerous. Operators need to be highly trained, but it can be difficult to gain real-life experience in a safe and consequence-free environment.

We helped Total OLEUM create a realistic virtual learning program at its industry-scale process training facility in La Mède, France. The system uses six cloud-based AVEVA™ Operator Training Simulators, deployed in partnership with Microsoft Azure cloud, to create a fully simulated petrochemical facility, complete with fully realized control rooms and accurate responses.

Operators can train in a virtual environment, either remotely or in-classroom, gaining invaluable experience of how to optimize complex processes and respond to potentially dangerous incidents in safety. Now, programs that once took weeks can be completed in hours — helping Total to train more than 2,000 operators, safely and sustainably, every year.

Working with AVEVA has enabled Aker CC to grow and scale rapidly, quickly becoming a global leader in renewable technologies by using the power of the cloud to connect teams across the world and facilitate timely and cost-efficient working, with more efficient collaboration.

With so many business units, BP found it difficult to quickly adapt to market changes and take advantage of market opportunities. With a lack of insight into the supply chain and a number of outdated technologies that required specialized skills, analysts found it difficult to identify opportunities and act on them.

We deployed PI System operational data management together with AVEVA™ Unified Supply Chain in the Cloud to help streamline BP’s supply chain management process. With real-time data, decision-making time has been cut from two days to two hours and thousands of scenarios can be modelled in just minutes.

To reach their goal, the team needed to ensure they were optimizing every part of the value chain. But with multiple sites and more than 80 process units, cross-business coordination was challenging.

We helped them deploy AVEVA™ Unified Supply Chain in the Cloud, bringing together real-time intelligence, rapid analytics and decision-making tools in a single digital environment.

With easy access to shared, real-time information in the Cloud, the team is now able to automate much of their optimization and make fast and accurate decisions, informed by artificial intelligence. The result? Greater efficiency, less waste and faster progress towards their carbon neutral goal.
