ENI expands usage of AspenTech APC technology to improve asset optimization

Aspen Technology, Inc, a leading provider of software and services to the process industries, today announced that ENI S.p.A., a global supermajor headquartered in Rome, Italy, with operations in 79 countries and the world’s 11th largest industrial company, has successfully leveraged Aspen DMC3™ technology to achieve superior performance across multiple sites with Adaptive Process Control.

ENI implemented Aspen DMC3 with Adaptive Process Control technology in its Sannazzaro Refinery, achieving millions of dollars per year in advanced process control (APC) benefits while reducing deployment and lifecycle maintenance costs. When ENI introduced a significant new piece of equipment, the ENI EST Slurry Unit, at the Sannazzaro site, impacting all refinery operations, Aspen DMC3 quickly brought back all APC applications to peak performance, with limited resources. ENI was able to expand its APC footprint to secondary units to maximize benefits at all refineries.

Adaptive Process Control, compared to traditional APC technology, allows for background testing without disturbing operations. As a result, highly accurate models are easier to maintain as plants change over time, helping companies meet operational targets, eliminate complex & costly controller revamp projects as well as reduce new projects cost and increase benefits.

AspenTech’s industry-leading APC technology is used by major Oil & Gas companies such as ExxonMobil, Chevron, Valero, and ENI. With aspenONE® Advanced Process Control solutions, customers can significantly increase capacity, reduce energy costs, improve yields, maintain tight control and reduce quality variance.
