Industry: Refining
Application: Laboratory Information System (LIS)
Background: A large Asian refining major planned for LIS covering Design, Implementation, Training & Integration with:
- Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
- Refinery Scheduling & Oil Movement Application
- Geographical Information System (GIS)
- Analytical Instruments
- Bar Coding System
The refinery lab handled:
- 350+sample points
- 500+analysis codes
- 1000+ analytical parameters
- Custom COA reports
- Test & Executive Management reports
Business Objective:
Increase the Lab efficiency & data quality through the provision of a lab automation system to automate key laboratory tasks & enable real-time information exchange of laboratory analytical result information to other stakeholders in manufacturing & executive management. The project requirements included automatic & on-demand reports, Laboratory Key Performance Indicator (KPI) reports & 5+ years of legacy data transfer.
Solution:
- PerkinElmer’s LABWorks@ application soGware based solution implemented with integrations o AspenTech’s 21 based Manufacturing Execution System (through OPC)
- AspenTech’s Orion Refinery Scheduler Application
- Honeywell Oil Movement System Application
- ESRI’sArc View-based Geographical Information System
- Multiple Instruments from various vendors (through instrument PC)
- Lab Process Scheduling
- Multiple Complex reports
Approach:
Fully integrated system mapped with business processes went live & adopted by users, incorporating customer’s IT security policy & other unique requirements.
