Energy Generation Industry

The asset-intensive energy industry faces mounting pressure from governments, society and consumers to transition to cleaner energy sources (solar, wind, hybrid and decentralized energy systems) to decarbonize. The industry is at varying levels of digital transformation - not all producers have made inroads in investing in solutions to improve asset reliability and performance. The industry still face various challenges such as aging infrastructure, low plant availability and reliability, and with rising demand for energy the pressure mounts to produce more at the lowest generation cost.

Challenges

Optimise performance of assets to:

• Reduce unplanned downtime
• Increase reliability
• Reduce operational and energy consumption costs
• Reduce operations and maintenance costs
• Reduce operational risks
• Reduce fugitive emissions through maintenance routines based on real-time data.
• Better staff utilization and efficiency.
• Automate processes.

Manufacturing Industry

Driven by globalization and advances in MES/MOM technologies, the manufacturing industry is expected to continue growing for the next few years. However, there are nuances such as ineffective or lack of proper asset maintenance plans that can lead to unplanned breakdowns and lost productivity, necessitating costly repairs that manufacturers are dealing with. Moreover, managing spares / inventory remains a challenge. Manufacturers have many different assets to keep track of.

Challenges

Poor inventory and supply chain management.

Ineffective planning & scheduling processes or lack of asset maintenance plans resulting in:

• Increased machine breakdowns
• Reduced OEE
• High maintenance & repair costs
• Reduce operating & maintenance costs

Keeping track of and monitor condition of a large family of assets.

Chemical Industry

Chemical manufacturing is a complex industry with a big impact on the world economy. However, the industry poses risks particularly relating to safety and environment, making it one of the highly regulated. Asset owners here are looking to optimise assets performance, process efficiencies, whilst ensuring people safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Safety is a top priority given the consequences of accidents or failures of safety instrumented systems.

Challenges

• Avoiding equipment failures and risks related to fixed assets.
• Lack of inventory visibility.
• Improving efficiency and reduce risk related to corrosion.
• Keeping track of equipment monitoring schedule in compliance to regulatory standards.
• Hazard analysis

Pulp & Paper Industry

Pulp and paper manufacturing is one of the capital-intensive, oldest and largest consumer of energy globally. The process of manufacturing paper consumes a significant number of resources: water, energy, and wood pulp. The environmental impacts for P&P are well documented and the industry needs to invest in sustainable manufacturing practices and technologies to minimize its environmental impact. The industry is facing increased competition from digital media which can impact its profitability, requiring that it find alternative ways to use paper products that are not replaced easily.

Challenges

• Keeping production costs down is one of the critical challenges facing the industry.
• Capital investment in newer technology also costly initially.
• Optimisation of manufacturing processes
• Effective supply chain management.
• Reduce energy usage.

Services & Utilities Industry

This industry provides wide range of services that are essential to the society's quality of life, like clean drinking water, waste management, drainage and flood protection. These services depend on physical infrastructure assets like water treatment plants, waster water retention ponds, roads, buses, buildings, and emergency vehicles.

Challenges

Competing pressures and need to make trade-offs between performance, cost and risk.

• Developing asset management system
• Reduce unplanned downtime
• Increase reliability
• Reduce operations and maintenance costs
• Reduce operational risks
• Integrate mechanical integrity and safety inspections across enterprise assets.
