據世界石油2023年6月19日報道，霍尼韋爾(Honeywell)日前為油氣行業推出了新的“霍尼韋爾數字優化”解決方案（Honeywell Digital Prime），這是一種基于云的數字孿生解決方案，用于跟蹤、管理和測試過程控制變化和系統修改。這是一種具有成本效益的解決方案，允許用戶頻繁測試以獲得更準確的結果，同時總體上減少被動維護。

該方案通過高效的協作解決方案提供最高水平的質量控制，用于管理變更、進行工廠驗收測試、改進項目執行和培訓，避免中斷生產系統。這個平臺能夠用于油氣行業的企業在計劃停工期間測試修改情況，以減少返工。

大多數解決方案需要專用硬件，容易受到安全漏洞的攻擊，并且無法保持最新狀態以匹配實時操作。但該方案通過提供“實驗室系統即服務”解決了這些挑戰，該服務不斷更新以反映生產環境中發生的變化，提供一個可靠的數字孿生系統。

該方案是一個協作生態系統，具有安全的云連接、虛擬工程平臺和內置安全保護。全球用戶可以通過其使用多因素認證的訂閱服務訪問數字生態系統，從而使客戶能夠在整個企業中實現標準化操作。

霍尼韋爾過程解決方案總裁Pramesh Maheshwari表示：“這將為未來的數字孿生系統設定一個新的標準，它可以即時訪問持續更新的安全平臺，用于監控和測試操作。”

Honeywell introduces cloud-based digital twin for oil, gas industry

Honeywell introduced its new Honeywell Digital Prime solution, a cloud-based digital twin for tracking, managing, and testing process control changes and system modifications. Digital Prime is a cost-effective solution that allows users to test frequently for more accurate results while resulting in an overall reduction in reactive maintenance.

Digital Prime offers the highest level of quality control through an efficient and collaborative solution for managing changes, running factory acceptance tests and improving project execution and training without having to disrupt the production system. The platform can be used by companies in the oil abd gas industry to test modifications during planned shutdown periods to reduce rework.

Most solutions require dedicated hardware, can be vulnerable to security breaches and don't stay current to match live operations. Digital Prime addresses these challenges by providing a "lab system as a service" that continually updates to reflect changes that occur on the production environment, providing a dependable digital twin.

Digital Prime is a collaborative ecosystem with secure cloud-based connectivity, a virtual engineering platform, and built-in security protection. The digital ecosystem can be accessed by users across the globe through its subscription service using multi-factor authentication, enabling the customers to standardize across the enterprise.

"Honeywell Digital Prime will set a new standard for the future of digital twins with its instant access to a continuously updated, safe platform for monitoring and testing operations," said Pramesh Maheshwari, President of Honeywell Process Solutions.
