SAN FRANCISCO and TAIPEI, Taiwan, Feb. 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ASD Global™, a leader in knowledge-based engineering software solutions for Front-End Loading (FEL), Front-End Engineering Design (FEED), early stage Detail Design, and Construction planning of projects for the Process, Power, and Marine industries is proud to announce that CTCI is now a customer.

CTCI is the national leader in the hydrocarbon processing industry and an active player in the international power, environmental, transportation and industrial markets. CTCI is implementing ASD’s OptiPlant™ as it supports their Smart Engineering initiatives and assists in their drive to become the world’s most reliable engineering services provider.  OptiPlant will improve project productivity and support automation and quality of their engineering and design services.

ASD’s OptiPlant is a 3D knowledge-based engineering automation application for developing and optimizing plant layouts, using parametric modeling and auto-routing of pipe and electrical components.  OptiPlant optimizes the plant layout through an iterative process that is fast, interactive, and involves multiple disciplines; including equipment, piping, process, electrical and civil/structural.  OptiPlant’s rule base is configured by users to bring greater accuracy to early estimates and costs, driving early procurement. OptiPlant also provides features to plan and generate Engineering and Construction Work Packages, schedules and sequences to support Automated Work Packaging (AWP) best practices.  Other deliverables include drawings, reports, and MTO’s.  All the data can be carried forward to the next stage of the project and is not thrown away.

ASD Global vice president of Strategy and Global Business Development, Rob Glasier, says, “We are pleased that CTCI has selected ASD, and are working collaboratively with them on the implementation of OptiPlant to support their Engineering initiatives.”
