Our Services

Process Simulation & Modeling

We develop steady-state process models to evaluate existing operations, new facilities, process modifications and alternative designs.

Software and modeling capabilities include:

• Aspen HYSYS

• Aspen Plus

• PRO/II

• DWSIM

Process models are used as engineering tools—not simply calculation outputs—to understand process behavior and support sound design decisions.

Services Include:

• Pipe sizing

• Pressure-drop calculations

• Pump system hydraulics

• Compressor system evaluations

• Control-valve hydraulic review

• Utility distribution systems

• Cooling-water systems

• Process transfer systems

• Gas gathering and compression systems

• Multiphase-flow evaluations

• Existing system capacity studies

• Debottlenecking

Equipment includes:

• Pressure vessels

• Separators

• Knockout drums

• Distillation and fractionation columns

• Heat exchangers

• Air coolers

• Pumps

• Compressors

• Blowers

• Storage tanks

• Reactors
