Case Study: Shell achieves greater plant efficiency and sustainability with FICO Xpress Optimization

Shell boosts plant processing efficiency and throughput with FICO Xpress Optimization

Shell, a global energy company, sought to enhance processing efficiency and support its decarbonization objectives across its LNG and chemical plants. To address this challenge, Shell collaborated with vendor FICO to utilize the FICO® Xpress Optimization Suite within its new Platform for Advanced Control and Estimation (PACE).

The solution implemented by FICO integrated their Xpress Solver for real-time optimization of these complex, large-scale processes. This resulted in reduced process variability, increased throughput, and improved operational reliability. By optimizing energy consumption, the solution also minimized greenhouse gas emissions, directly supporting Shell's sustainability targets while boosting overall economic performance.
