Versatility through dynamic process simulation

Digital twins are emerging as an industry standard, driving innovation and operational excellence. Operators seek frameworks to digitise asset management, foster collaboration, optimise resource utilisation, and achieve autonomous operations. 

However, successful digital transformation requires a cultural shift alongside technological advancements. The new operating model must integrate these dimensions for optimal results. 

Leading heavy asset operators globally rely on K-Spice to drive efficiency, reduce costs, compress project schedules, improve safety, and create valuable learning opportunities.

    Customised operator training simulators

    K-Spice connects its dynamic process model to a replica of the plant’s actual Integrated Control and Safety System (ICSS), creating realistic operator training simulators (OTS). These OTS allow operators to safely train on all operational modes. K-Spice can also integrate with generic training simulators and includes robust assessment tools to ensure high-quality training.

    Real-time production assurance solutions

    Real-time models, powered by K-Spice and LedaFlow, integrate sensor data and predictive calculations for a complete production overview. This data and dynamic model support informed decision-making, preventing problems and optimizing production and performance. Look-ahead, planning, and what-if modes further enhance predictive capabilities.

See why industry leaders are adopting dynamic simulations.

    This new way of working will enable our teams to learn from past events, predict future events, and prescribe a path forward to optimise production and equipment performance automatically, maintaining safe and energy-efficient operating parameters without manual intervention. The Industrial Work Surface is the cornerstone to our future ambitions.

    With the mobile version of the twin we will at any time and place be able to access the 3D model showing real-time pressure, temperature, and flow on different systems directly on our phones. It also means we can take quicker actions as a result of improved on-site navigation.

    This provides a more efficient and safer work preparation process, leaner communication across teams and disciplines, reduction of meetings, faster ways to locate equipment in heights, less data crosschecks between applications, and less logistics and time spent on field inspections.

    In my first year of using the digital twin, the Nyhamna teams – together with our partner Kongsberg Digital – developed use cases with a full line of sight to reduce our operating cost by about three million US dollars, which actually beats the investment cost. And, this is just the start of our digital transformation journey.
