Leading chemical companies across the globe face more competitive pressures with volatile market conditions and a rapidly changing workforce pushing the demand for increased sustainability and profitability. Digital twin software offers new levels of operational excellence through enterprise-wide insights that drive improved business operations.

Oil & gas, petrochemical and chemical companies face the dual challenge of maximizing profitability while achieving aggressive decarbonization objectives for 2030 and beyond.

As one of Europe’s most complex refineries, Heide Refinery looked to optimize its entire middle distillate system to maximize product quality and reduce giveaway. Given recent market volatility, Heide planned to further improve its operational agility to respond faster to changing conditions.

Hydrogen is an essential yet often limited resource for refiners, with demand increasing due to processing of renewable feedstocks. In addition, hydrogen production is very expensive, particularly with the recent rise in natural gas prices and the significant, costly CO2 emissions it generates. Now more than ever before, refiners need an effective way to manage the hydrogen supply-and-demand balance.
