Advanced Simulation

KBR's Advanced Simulation Services allow you to test your assumptions as early as the front end design phase of a plant's lifecycle.

Early implementation of Advanced Simulation and its component parts can help to answer critical questions such as:

The challenge for those tasked with designing process facilities is to understand all the variables, process dynamics and unit interactions that can occur in 'what if' situations. Then translate this knowledge into a design that optimizes the balance between production capacity and sustained operability, safety and reliability. As such, Advanced Simulation provides the critical link between a plant's design and its actual operation.

The Benefits of Advanced Simulation Include:

  • Reduced costs through installing accurate equipment sizing for relief systems
  • Improved safety and reliability through control system and operating procedure validation
  • Consistent execution
  • Field troubleshooting

KBR Advanced Simulation Services are provided through our Advanced Chemical Engineering (ACE) group. These specialty engineers possess best-in-class technical knowledge of — both KBR and third-party — process, machinery, control systems and deep domain expertise of production facility design and construction. Our implementation specialists are experts in the following fields:

Our implementation specialists are experts in Dynamic Simulation, Advanced Process Control, CFD, Discrete Simulation, Liquid Transient Analysis and Pinch Studies.

KBR's Advanced Simulation services take you beyond understanding plant behavior at the steady state and allow you to evaluate customized scenarios that model all manner of unanticipated events for both compressible and incompressible flows.
