How smarter desalter operations drive efficiencies and sustainability

If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it.” This insight from Lord Kelvin highlights a fundamental principle of industrial processes, especially in refining: accurate measurement is the cornerstone of any improvement. H. James Harrington expanded on this idea, stating, “Measurement is the first step that leads to control and, ultimately, to improvement. If you can’t measure something, you can’t understand it. If you can’t understand it, you can’t control it. And if you can’t control it, you can’t improve it.
