LNG Facility Eliminated 70 Hours of Manual Reporting with Data Integration
Project Overview:
A $10B liquefaction and export facility adjacent to the existing liquified natural gas receiving terminal and associated pipeline connecting to existing US pipeline infrastructure.
Challenges:
Data on this project was managed in iDocs, CDMS, SPM, CSIM, P6, and Excel with as many as 10 different teams making updates. This created problems with data availability and accuracy.
Solutions:
O3 is built to act as a data repository: data from multiple systems is available to use and organized in a logical manner.
This immediately solved a major issue on this project – data availability, but it also added valuable reporting. With the added value of API integrations, the risk of data being out of date is drastically reduced. The API process automated work that would otherwise be done manually and brought to light several inconsistencies from one data source to another.
Results:
Saved an estimated 70 hours of reports by using automation.
