FEED Solution

Building on continuous innovation over the past 10 years with Automatic Pipe Routing, ASD introduces the Stand-Alone and Integrated FEED solutions comprised of vastly improved and new software modules to provide a complete solution for FEED projects. Over 10 projects have been completed with these ASD Solutions, successfully, and implementations are growing in numbers.

OptiPlant (Improved)
A Stand-alone (no external Database or Graphics Package required), 3D Plant layout automation tool for conceptual / FEED stages of applications. Optiplant combines 3D conceptual modeling with automated pipe routing to develop a conceptual 3D model rapidly. With Optiplant, clients are delivering an accurate and interference checked 3D Piping and equipment layout for all types of Process and Power generation Plant facilities, within an extremely compressed schedule.

PlantDrafter (new)
A 2D automatic drawing generation tool, which takes the 3D data from Optiplant and generates all the required drawings. This includes 2D equipment GA's, piping GA's, and Isometrics.

Pipe Support Optimizer (PSO) (Improved)
A fully integrated stress analysis, support location, and design tool. With this product, users can eliminate the manual trial and error steps to determine optimal support locations PSO allows, concurrent engineering during the early piping design phase.

Web3D (new)
A web-based visualization tool of the OptiPlant 3D model. User can view real-time data from the Optiplant models to review project progress and design. Red line capability is provided for collaboration and design changes.

ASD's FEED solution package has been revamped keeping in mind the following:

• Information available during early concept and FEED is sufficient for ASD solution execution. A 3D model can be developed with the basic information available ( i.e. Plot Plan, Paper PFD's/P&ID's)
• Although standard routing rules and practices are built-in, User have the ability to change piping configuration based on their Company or project specific criteria through easy input templates
• Application is significantly broadened by our Global Clients to the following types of plant
  
  • Oil and Gas plants
    
  • Offshore Platforms and FPSO's
    
  • Pharmaceutical
    
  • Refinery and Chemical
    
  • Coal-based Ethanol
    

ASD's solution has also been packaged for other disciplines groups as follows:

• Optiplant Lite for the Business Development group- Standardized pre-assembled 3D Plants can be used for visual presentation of the scope and design by the BD group . ASD offers this through one time services or ASD/ Customer joint engagement in creating Optiplant based Pre-assembled 3D models
• Optiplant usage has expanded to Process Groups for quicker Process Flow finalization, considering layout re-arrangement impact
• Hand-off from FEED to Detail Design of the ASD developed models ( 70% of lines can be re-used in Detail Design)
