En un momento en el que las industrias se ven sometidas a una presión cada vez mayor para impulsar la eficiencia, reducir las emisiones y adaptarse a unas demandas que cambian rápidamente, AspenTech V15 se ha diseñado específicamente para afrontar estos retos críticos

Durante las primeras etapas de un proyecto, la precisión en la estimación de costos es fundamental para su éxito. Una estimación confiable permite comparar alternativas de diseño, evitar sobrecostos y optimizar el costo capital (CAPEX) desde las fases iniciales.

Concurrent Engineering tightly integrates with Process Simulation—connecting validated process models with equipment design, economics, engineering deliverables, risk assessments and even 3D layouts. This unified environment ensures that every discipline works from the same source of truth, reducing rework and accelerating project decisions. Explore this interactive infographic to see how integrated workflows create a truly multidisciplinary approach.

Sweco, Europe’s leading architecture and engineering consultancy, needed a more consistent and scalable approach to cost estimation across its Industry and Energy Division in Finland.

During the early stages of a project, cost estimate accuracy is critical for success. Accurate estimates prevent budget overruns and enable better decision-making during feasibility studies—optimizing CAPEX from the earliest stages.

Process simulation tools—such as steady-state and dynamic modeling platforms—provide value far beyond traditional design and analysis. When simulation models are connected to a broader digital engineering environment, validated process data can be seamlessly reused across disciplines, supporting integrated and efficient project execution.

Aspen Capital Cost Estimator (ACCE) empowers project teams to perform integrated cost risk analyses using Monte Carlo simulations, helping ensure budget reliability for capital projects.

Optimizing chemical processes requires input from multiple disciplines – engineering, costing, safety and environmental. Evaluating these factors early in the design lifecycle significantly improves the quality of the design and reduces time spent collaborating across teams.

The upstream industry is facing the daunting challenge of producing secure, sustainable and affordable energy for the world’s current and future needs.
