Petrofac has adopted Intergraph SmartPlant Enterprise solutions to add to its portfolio of tools used in the execution of its global design and engineering projects.
Due to strong market conditions and increased global demand for the SmartPlant Enterprise solutions, Petrofac has entered into a substantial, multi-year agreement with the Process, power and marine division of Intergraph. Petrofac is embracing SmartPlant Enterprise to meet tight schedules and true demands for productivity increase.
ATHEEB Intergraph Middle East, Intergraph’s Middle East distributor, was highly instrumental in influencing Petrofac to adopt SmartPlant Enterprise by demonstrating its value for design and engineering projects.
“Our expanding project portfolio and the drive to continuously improve our service offering were major considerations in our choice of Intergraph’s SmartPlant Enterprise to complement our range of engineering tools,” said Nigel Paton, deputy managing director for Petrofac’s engineering services business. “SmartPlant Enterprise delivers a solution whereby we can be ever more responsive to the dynamics of our market.”
Gerhard Sallinger, Intergraph Process, Power and Marine president, said, “Petrofac’s decision to adopt Intergraph’s next-generation solutions is another example of how industry leaders more than ever recognise that our solutions enable them to become more productive and competitive. The addition of Petrofac to our major customer roster also reinforces Intergraph’s leadership in the oil and gas industry.”
SmartPlant Enterprise is an integrated solutions suite that provides full design, construction, materials and engineering data management capabilities needed for the creation, safe operation and maintenance, and Project Lifecycle Management (PLM) of large-scale process, power, marine and offshore projects. The software’s life cycle data management also enables a smoother handover for EPCs to owner operators and for owner operators to more easily maintain, refurbish or modify their plants.
