Horse · 发表于 2014-6-19 19:29:01

Enables concurrent basic engineering, produces basic engineering deliverables, and supports lifecycle process engineering.

Aspen Basic Engineering is a scalable, global process engineering platform, tying together all elements of front-end design.With a focus on the basic engineering function, Aspen Basic Engineering provides tight integration with the latest releases of all major process simulation, cost estimation, and equipment design programs—whether they’re commercially available or developed in-house.

                              （一）、The Challenge: DoMore with Fewer Engineers

With capital project investments in an upward cycle across the process power, generation and mining industries, design work on these projects faces a global shortage of experienced engineers.More specifically, Aspen Basic Engineering addresses these key business issues in the process engineering function:

Need to perform concurrent basic engineering across several disciplines and by teams located in different geographies or at different subcontractor firms, working on one accurate design database.
Requirement to manage process information consistently—throughout the engineering and asset lifecycles—improving design quality, as-built accuracy, and ability to recycle operating information for future designs.
Imperative to deliver accurate cost estimation earlier into the concept design and basic design stages.
Need to impose standard practices and methods enterprise-wide to ensure design quality, reduce maintenance costs, and ensure safety compliance.
Capture best practices and design knowledge to improve the ability of less experienced engineers in delivering high-quality designs.

（二）、The Solution: Integrated Process Engineering for Fast, Accurate, Consistent Results

Aspen Basic Engineering is an industry-leading process engineering solution that enables global organizations to seamlessly and accurately tie together all aspects of front-end design and basic engineering. Powerful and comprehensive, it integrates all major process simulation programs, equipment design programs, cost estimation and in-house design tools.

Flexible out-of-the-box Datasheet and PFD and P&ID creation tools . help streamline engineering workflows, enabling faster, more efficient collaboration across the organization.

Aspen Basic Engineering

In addition to providing an accurate and constantly updated information source for process design, Aspen Basic Engineering offers a robust set of out-of-the-box design deliverables, such as multi-disciplinary datasheets, PFDs, P&IDs, and equipment lists. To support downstream engineering workflows, Aspen Basic Engineering enables the expansion of simulations to process flow diagrams and process flow diagram to P&IDs, maintaining design information and consistent connectivity. Aspen Basic Engineering also supports the transmittal of basic design data to detailed design, providing an interface to Intergraph and AVEVA systems. Aspen Basic Engineering further manages process design information throughout the lifecycle of a facility. This enables engineering teams to share process and equipment information in a secure, access-controlled environment while debottlenecking the process.
