Submission Criteria
The plant must adhere to a PlantWeb strategy:
-
digital-capable devices that provide field intelligence using onboard microprocessors, embedded software, and open-standard communications
-
open communication standards linking field intelligence, systems, and applications in a plant-wide network
-
DeltaV or Ovation automation systems that make the most of PlantWeb's predictive intelligence
-
consolidated valuable asset information collected using AMS Suite technologies
The plant must demonstrate some of the following PlantWeb benefits:
-
reduce project risk

reduce operations and maintenance costs
-
lower your project cost
-
improve product quality
-
shorten your overall project schedule
-
increase throughput
-
improve availability
-

The plant’s run time may be important:
-
If the plant is demonstrating only startup benefits, the plant must be commissioned and running
-
If the plant is demonstrating operational benefits, it must have been running long enough to quantify those benefits
-
No limit to run time – it could have been online for years
