Digital twin oil and gas examples— Adigital twin in the oil and gas industrycan help streamline operations and reduce costs by simulating in real-time physical assets such as a refinery, offshore platforms or power plants. As a result, it gets easier to predict operational issues that lead ...
In process industries (e.g., the oil refining and petrochemical industries), process systems engineering and related digital twin solutions play a key role in processing towards a smart operation [90]. Precursors of digital twinsdigital siblings have been used in large continuous plants for decades...
Analysis and optimisation strategies implemented for a two-stage desalter processing light to medium API crude blends at a Southeast Asian refinery. Improving crude vacuum unit performance When simulating or designing an unconventional heavy oil/bitumen vacuum crude unit, the sharing of operating data ...
NASAbecame one of the first to formally use the digital twin concept in 2002 to assist in the operation, repair and maintenance of rockets. Similarly, digital twin technology can be used in an oil refinery. For example, pumps, compressors, heat exchangers and other pieces of equipment in a ...

The paper examines security problems related to the use of digital twins as part of promising industrial technologies for fuel and energy companies, such as digital oil field and the intelligent refinery. An industrial technology that uses a digital twin in its composition is decomposed into three ...
AVEVA announced a strategic partnership with Meridian Energy Group Inc. to develop a digital twin for the first full-conversion refinery built in the U.S. since 1976, and the first modern "greenfield" advanced technology refinery constructed in the U.S. ever...
“This is the beginning of an industry transformation,” Skryseth said. “And it will make all aspects of a production facility or refinery more efficient and ensure that you can have data-driven decision making.” In late August, Shell entered an enterprise agreement with the company t...
