Visual MESA Real Time Energy Management System

Refining References:

In general, refineries exhibit a very good potential for real time monitoring and optimization using Visual MESA Energy Management System.

Based on our extensive experience, overall benefit in the range of 2% to 5% of the total energy cost can be achieved. Expected project payback is always less than one year.

Visual MESA was successfully applied to more than 50 Refineries worldwide, several of them with capacity, steam, fuels and power generation networks of different complexity but all with energy cost savings.

Several published references reported Visual MESA application success:

1. Kuwait National Petroleum Company (KNPC), Mina Al-Ahmadi (MAA), Mina Abdullah (MAB) and Shuaiba (SHU) Refineries, Kuwait

4.4 MM USD per year and CO2 emission reduction of 27,600 tons per year were reported for MAA Refinery. In addition, What-If case example with 2 MM USD per year of potential savings is presented.

24.8 klb/h of steam excess reduction example are reported for MAB Refinery.

SHU Refinery reported also very good results.

    Chemical plants rely on continuous and batch production processes, each posing different requirements for a control system. A continuous process calls for a robust and stable control system that will not fail and cause the shutdown of a production line, whereas the emphasis with a batch process is on having a control system that allows great flexibility in making adjustments to formulas, procedures, and the like. Both kinds of systems need to be managed in available quality history of product, and to be able to execute non-routine operations. With its extensive product portfolio, experienced systems engineers, and global sales and service network, Yokogawa has a solution for every plant process.
