The project is a cooperation between:
  • SINTEF ICT
  • SINTEF Technology and society
  • NTNU Industrial economics and technology management: 
  • NTNU Engineering cybernetics
  • NTNU Chemical engineering

The objective of this project is to increase the value of natural gas produced offshoreby more efficient operations and improved design of processing plants for natural gas. This will be achieved by:

  • Improving production planning by advanced optimization and scheduling.

  • Incorporate market information into production planning and thereby achieving market focus on process control

  • Provide decision support tools to link process control and business operation

  • for use in the new emerging control centers

    •

  • Provide a framework within the Gas Technology Centre at NTNU/SINTEF for exchange and reuse of Process System Technology
