Is your refinery LP model working for you—or against you? Your Linear Programming (LP) model is the backbone of decision-making in refining, but when was the last time it had a checkup? Over time, outdated constraints and inaccurate data can lead to misaligned strategies that cost millions. Darren York's new article explores why an annual health check is essential for ensuring accuracy, optimization, and profitability. 🔗 A simple check can reveal hidden value.

Will we see you in Milan? 👇 #MUGI2025
🛢️ Due to recent shifts in #crudesupply trends, #refineryoperators have the need to work with constantly shifting #crudequality with varying properties. 🧪 To ensure profitable and optimal infrastructure utilization, operators need to have the ability to not only identify appropriate #crudes to blend, but to also analyze impact of blends / fractions proactively and predictively quantify the #corrosion effects of these new blends on their existing #unitmetallurgy. 🌍 At #MUGI2025 in Milan in April, Sridhar Srinivasan of Becht will discuss how refiners can address future proofing infrastructure through appropriate blending and processing of crudes. By utilizing the ability of #Becht's CorrExpert®-Crude to communicate with cloud-enabled blending applications such as Haverly's #HCOMET, operators can not only quantify remaining life across their infrastructure asset base but also generate economically advantageous strategies for infrastructure metallurgical enhancements and market-driven #opportunitycrude acquisition for safe operations well into the future. 🔗 Register for MUGI Milan to hear this insightful presentation! https://lnkd.in/gNcEKX48

Can margin pressures threaten #energyefficiency and emission reduction goals for European refiners? At #ESFEurope in Vienna, Becht’s Andrew Last tackled this critical question, exploring how energy and crude optimization can be a crucial first step in improving refinery efficiency while also generating the cash flow needed to invest in decarbonization technologies—key to meeting 2030 and 2050 company and governmental goals. Andrew and Chris Van Der Beek also strengthened relationships with both existing and new clients, laying the groundwork to support them in their asset optimization and #energytransition journeys.
