Houston, June 1, 2022:

Refining & Petrochemicals Middle East magazine published Jean-Paul Sacy’s (Vice President, Lummus Digital) article in their June 2022 edition. In his insightful article, “Redefining the ‘Technology Landscape’ in the Refining and Petrochemicals Sector”, he throws light on the process of digital transformation of the refining and petrochemicals sector by implementing advanced technologies like AI Cloud Computing, IOT, and Big Data.

His article elucidates the challenges that might lead to failure while implementing digital transformation and shares steps that can ensure avoidance of such failures. He, further, elaborates through a case study where he details about a giant petrochemical group’s digital transformation journey.

It is intriguing to know about the radical transformation of the petrochemical group – how it went from having a disjointed state of digital and analytical framework to having a holistic, well-integrated and a complete data management platform. The organization went on to have an embedded “AI Factory” that resulted in improved production optimization along with accurate prediction of feedstock and product prices.

Jean-Paul stresses in his article that it is also essential for downstream organizations, which are moving towards digital transformation, to be adept in areas of data analytics, technology, architecture, and cyber-security.
