In the petrochemical industry, several licensors possess the original design technology for producing the same products worldwide. Consequently, many companies import this technology and apply it similarly. However, companies may modify their operation process based on the feed stock, market demand, and business policy.
Operational efficiency, including consistency of quality, stability of the process, and efficiency of operation, significantly impacts the rate of return for oil refining and petrochemical companies. Nevertheless, rising labor costs, difficulties in supplying and deploying field engineers, and increasing competition from rival companies require higher operational competitiveness.
To address this challenge, understanding and predicting the operating conditions of the process and the real-time process situation is crucial. However, volatility in raw materials and fluctuation in market conditions result in significant errors in operation forecasts, causing serious losses. To minimize these errors, machine learning-based software for process prediction will be developed and provided as a solution for processes with highly volatile raw materials and operational instability.
