SLB Capturi, formerly called Aker Carbon Capture, accelerating the transition to net zero
Updated: Oct 9
See how SLB Capturi uses cloud-based engineering tools to accelerate carbon capture projects, improve collaboration, and dramatically reduce engineering costs.
“Using AVEVA E3D Design has been a super important part of our engineering process. We have found that it improves efficiency in terms of how we work together. It’s a modular process, so that makes it easy for us to adjust to client needs. There are also clear benefits in terms of cyber security.”
- David Phillips, former Head of UK & Investor Relations at Aker Carbon Capture
Challenges
The journey to effective carbon capture is not without its hurdles. Here are some key challenges faced by SLB Capturi:
Cost Reduction: There is a pressing need to reduce the overall cost of services to accelerate the uptake of carbon capture globally.
Engineering Efficiency: Engineering hours must be minimized. Increased transparency and collaboration are essential.
Concurrent Work: Engineers and designers need to work concurrently during facility design.
Global Collaboration: Teams separated by time zones and vast distances must collaborate effectively on projects.
Solution
To address these challenges, SLB Capturi deployed several innovative tools:
AVEVA Enterprise Resource Management: This tool streamlines project management and resource allocation.
AVEVA Unified Engineering: This platform enhances collaboration and design efficiency.
AVEVA E3D Design: This advanced design software is hosted on the CONNECT platform, enabling seamless integration and collaboration.
Results
The results of implementing these solutions have been remarkable:
Reduction in Engineering Hours: There has been a significant decrease in engineering hours.
Cost Efficiency: The cost of medium-sized offerings has been reduced by 90% compared to nine years ago.
AVEVA is working closely with SLB Capturi, formerly known as Aker Carbon Capture, to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions from industrial operations and accelerate the transition to net zero. SLB Capturi designs and builds facilities for companies in carbon-intensive industries, such as cement, steel, and oil and gas. AVEVA’s Unified Engineering in the cloud helps SLB Capturi create efficient and replicable designs for carbon capture units. Additionally, AVEVA’s cloud-based software allows teams to collaborate across time zones, resulting in an increase in operational efficiency and time to market by over 50%.
