Powered by AVEVA NET – the Petrotech Preview

AVEVA announced that it will launch new solutions, powered by its AVEVA NET technology, in June this year. Pre-publicity for the new solutions will start at Petrotech 2008 in Bahrain, 26 - 28 May 2008, where AVEVA is exhibiting on stand 731.

AVEVA NET is an application-neutral store for operational, maintenance and safety data, no matter which program created it. It makes this data available and useful to a wide range of users, across all lifecycle phases.

This is a key concern for many businesses operating in the large engineering project market. They often use many different technologies to address multiple complex needs, but inevitably there is little or no communication between these technologies. The result of this is that often critical information simply does not arrive at the right place and is not acted upon.

Derek Middlemas, Executive Vice President Business Strategy at AVEVA, explained: "Up to 60% of all equipment downtime can be attributed to delays in finding the correct information. AVEVA NET solves this problem by creating one common ‘plant information model,' available to all users across all lifecycle phases. Added value is then created by automatic processes such as change management, security management, configuration management and workflow management."

The results: improved staff productivity, improved plant throughput, enhanced regulatory/safety compliance and more efficient management of change (MOC), amongst others. The new solutions, Powered by AVEVA NET, include:

AVEVA NET Portal - AVEVA NET Portal brings together information from disparate applications and data sources and provides a unified, web-based, digital profile of the physical plant that can be shared easily across offices and territories

AVEVA NET and ISOMET - This solution supports the planning and execution of pipe maintenance. Recent plant incidents have highlighted the importance of pipe maintenance; AVEVA NET and ISOMET delivers seamless integration of pipe maintenance with other types of operational data.

AVEVA NET Enterprise, the new, fully configurable version of the platform, which enables solutions to be developed as well as deployed, will also be launched at the same time.
