Exapilot Operation efficiency improvement package
Overview
What is Exapilot?
Exapilot is an online navigation tool that guides operators step by step through plant operating procedures.
Even though production control systems automate most of an industrial plant’s operations, operators are still required to manually intervene for non-routine processes such as plant start-ups/shutdowns and product load/grade/recipe changes. Start-ups and shutdowns may occur very infrequently, even just once in a few years. Product switchovers, on the other hand, can be an everyday occurrence.
Experienced operators know every step of these procedures, but what happens if no one like that is immediately available on site? Will other less experienced operators be able to cope when the unexpected occurs?
Exapilot solves this problem. Exapilot takes the know-how of your best operators and transforms this into standardized procedural flowcharts that your operators can use to navigate flawlessly through an entire process.
Exapilot navigates operators through each step of an operation and prevents them from making mistakes, and even issues timely alarms when a hazardous abnormality is detected in a process. The standardization of operations improves product quality, shortens production cycle time, and reduces transient product. This results in reduced utility costs and enables plants to operate with smaller inventories.
By eliminating operator errors and production losses, efficiency is improved and total operating costs are reduced.
Since Exapilot was first released, over 1,000 licenses have been sold to companies all over the world, and the majority of users have come from the chemical, petrochemical, and oil & gas industries.
