Take Your Turnarounds to the Next Level
Plant turnarounds have never been known to be staff’s favorite projects, so few people were sad to see them slow or even stop altogether during the COVID pandemic. But now that the worst of the global pandemic appears to be in the rearview mirror, organizations have...
Lifecycle Maintenance Tools Usher in the Future of Reliability
Many maintenance teams are facing a two-pronged problem these days. As their organizations expand and acquire new plants across the country or even across the globe, teams are responsible for managing an ever-increasing number of tools and software packages to manage...
Continuing Innovations in Control Valve Noise Reduction
Here’s a brief 1:40 YouTube video, Treating control valve noise with Fisher Whisper technology, that shares how the bar continues to be raised for control valve noise reduction by reducing sound pressure levels to a manageable level with Fisher Whisper technology. More innovations to come!
Steam Turbine Electro-Hydraulic Control
Emerson’s Mark Stratton and Tori Winter presented Steam Turbine Electro-Hydraulic Control (EHC) Systems at the 2023 Ovation Users Group Conference.
Optimizing Pump Performance with Measurements and Analytics
Emerson’s Melanie Novacek presented Ovation Advanced Process Control Pump Performance Algorithm at the 2023 Ovation Users Group Conference.
Better Grid Reliability Starts with Analytics
As electrical grids get more complex, so too does the task of keeping them online. Grid operators have long had reliability programs, as they are essential to safe operation, but the most effective plants are updating those programs with modern technologies as they...
Successfully Bring Renewable Assets Into the Fold
One of the hottest topics of conversation at the 2023 Ovation Users’ Group conference has been renewables, and much of that conversation has been around the struggle to bring a wide array of disparate renewable assets together into a unified system of control,...
AMS Device Manager Data Server | Extended Intelligent Field Device Analytics Without the Aggravation
As process manufacturing scope and capabilities have grown over the decades, so, too, has the need to carefully deploy and monitor dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of automation assets. Plant personnel rely on measurement and analytical instrumentation, digital...
Designing & Specifying Process Automation Parameters to Drive Performance
A plant’s performance can be optimized at the intersection of capital equipment, production processes, and people. Done correctly from the start through the selection of technologies and how they are deployed can lead to higher levels of productivity, reliability, safety, and sustainability.
Data-Driven Culture Drives Maintenance and Reliability Results
Life sciences organizations are not short on data. Most plants already have many sensors in place to drive operational data to the control system so operators always know exactly what is happening at any given moment of production. Operations teams know that good data...
Driving Reliability Improvements
Aspen Mtell prescriptive maintenance software and Emerson AMS asset monitoring and health analysis software compile disparate data sources to make smarter decisions to drive top-quartile reliability performance. Register for one of the Thursday, June 22, 9am CDT, or Thursday, July 20, 9am GMT sessions. The presenters will be AspenTech’s John Campbell and Emerson’s Mani Nambiar.
