Aspen Fidelis helps decision-makers evaluate capital investments, maintenance strategies and operational improvements by forecasting performance, cost and risk across complex industrial systems.

Process simulation tools—such as steady-state and dynamic modeling platforms—provide value far beyond traditional design and analysis.

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.

Turnarounds are critical to ensuring safe operations and long-term plant reliability. However, they come at high capital and operational costs, and cause production downtime that results in opportunity losses.

As operational demands increase and margins tighten, it’s no longer enough to rely on traditional predictive maintenance practices. To stay competitive, companies must embrace a more integrated, proactive approach to Asset Performance Management (APM)—one that combines AI/ML, safety-first maintenance practices and smarter investment planning to transform asset management.

Advanced simulation tools are key to overcoming the challenges of the green hydrogen economy. Process engineers who leverage Aspen Plus® simulation software can optimize hydrogen production processes, boost efficiency and reduce costs.

A leading integrated oil and gas producer partnered with AspenTech to build a large system performance model using Aspen Fidelis™ for their hydrocarbon supply chain, drastically reducing analysis time from months to weeks. Previously reliant on slow, manual processes, the company now benefits from real-time forecasting, better bottleneck identification and improved decision-making on capital investments.

The World Refining Association (WRA) continues its discussion with Don Busiek, SVP of Asset Performance Management at AspenTech. They delve into the current talent recruitment challenges faced by the Energy industry and explore the role of digitalization in addressing this issue.

The World Refining Association (WRA) spoke with Don Busiek, SVP of Asset Performance Management at AspenTech, about how asset performance management solutions can help companies achieve their digitalization and sustainability goals.

In today's rapidly evolving industries with ever-changing dynamics, maintaining operational efficiency and reliability is crucial. Digitalization offers insights into facility capacities and capabilities across varying scenarios—short and long term. By understanding the potential effects of equipment downtime or changes in production plans, organizations can proactively manage risks and optimize resource allocation.
