Make Better Decisions in Complex, Constraint-HeavyOil & Gas Networks
When production, transport, and demand are tightly constrained, it’s hard to know how decisions will impact your network.
AIMMS helps you model your network end to end, understand flows, identify bottlenecks, and make confident decisions across complex oil and gas operations.
A tool to make the right decisions
“GMOS (Global Manufacturing and Logistics Optimization System) has helped us to optimize our supply chain and select the feedstock with the best commercial terms at any given time. The folks in the petrochemicals business really trust this tool to help them make the right decisions.”
Deciding how to move flows across your network
Routing decisions across pipelines, terminals, fuel depots, and customers are tightly interconnected. Decisions around capacity reservations, customer allocation, and product flows can create bottlenecks elsewhere in the network, making it difficult to understand the full operational impact.
With AIMMS, you can model your network end-to-end, understand how flows interact, and identify bottlenecks before they affect performance.
Aligning production output with demand and commitments
Decisions around crude and biofuel blending, fuel specifications, and balancing refined products against imports directly impact profitability and supply. These trade-offs must be managed while meeting demand and contractual commitments across the network.
With AIMMS, you can evaluate allocation strategies and balance production, demand, and network performance.
Working within fixed infrastructure and limited flexibility
Pipeline capacity, refinery operating modes, and tank farm limitations define what can move through the network and when. Production often cannot be reduced or stopped, forcing decisions within tight operational boundaries.
With AIMMS, you can determine how to route flows and allocate capacity within these limits to avoid bottlenecks and protect production.
Adapting decisions when conditions shift
Changes in demand, supply disruptions, transport availability, or market conditions require immediate adjustments to production, imports, and product flows. Understanding the impact of these changes across the network is difficult without scenario analysis.
With AIMMS, you can quickly test alternative scenarios and determine how to adjust flows, production, and supply in response.
