The process industries are now more than ever being reshaped through digital initiatives, with the intent to become more proficient in designing, building and operating process plants. In this executive brief, read how AspenTech and Hexagon are working together to help engineering firms and plant owners realize their digitalization journey.

Learn from Chevron's experience with Adaptive Process Control and how it can deliver continuous benefts throughtout the entire controller lifecycle.

Adaptive Process Control is primarily recognized for streamlining APC maintenance, however it is also very useful in new controller development. Eni shares their story on how they used Adaptive Process Control to build new APC applications faster and more efficiently than traditional methods, allowing them to achieve stable behavior in the presence of large model mismatch. "Seed" models were used to rapidly deploy controllers and accrue benefits immediately, all while minimizing disruption to operations.

Overview and demo from AT experts on Smart Tune- an enhanced optimization algorithm that simplifies the tuning and configuration workflow. Smart Tune allows users to directly specify objectives rather than enduring the complicated tuning process.

John Campbell (AspenTech) shares how to use seed models (less than perfect models based on historical data or similar processes) to shorten the time before a controller is turned on to accrue benefits earlier and potentially develop multiple controllers at once (in parallel).

With vertically integrated unified production optimization, you can dynamically optimize multiple process units in closed loop.

This infographic highlights the results from a survey to upstream industry executives on their use of data analytics, which was conducted by AspenTech and Petroleum Economist in April 2017.

Learn how AspenTech refining solutions improve profit margins and operations across the downstream industry value chain. This infographic provides an overview of the benefits many companies have realized.

What is a Digital Twin and what does it do? View this infographic to learn what a digital twin is and how it provides important insight on system performance enabling companies to optimize operations and reduce costs by maximizing uptime with real-time recommendations.

Compares the traditional method of tuning a controller to Smart Tune which allows users to directly specify operational objectives. Breaks down how the new algorithm works through animations and summarizes the benefits: reduce efforts and complexity, quickly adapt controller to changing economic conditions, process changes or model updates, easily simulate, troubleshoot and modify controller strategy online and increase operator acceptance and controller uptime.
