Case Study: D2RT Engineering achieves faster, more efficient PPF splitter design with Hexagon

D2RT Engineering Gains Increased Standardization and Productivity in the Planning and Implementation of EPC Projects

D2RT Engineering, a Polish engineering services company, was challenged by its client to lower capital expenditure for a propane-propylene fraction splitter revamp project at an oil refinery. The project required reusing existing, decades-old equipment, which necessitated complex fitness-for-service reassessments that were too conservative and time-consuming using standard methods. To overcome this, the company turned to vendor Hexagon for its integrated suite of design and analysis software.

Hexagon's solutions, including CADWorx, CAESAR II, and PV Elite, provided an interoperable platform for 3D modeling, rigorous stress analysis, and equipment evaluation. This enabled D2RT Engineering to complete the detailed design in under a year, achieving greater efficiency, faster project execution, and significant time savings through seamless data transfer between applications. The Hexagon software allowed for a more accurate and safer analysis than standard formulas, optimizing work processes and ensuring error-free designs for the client.
