Lummus to provide digitalisation solutions to India's HPL

Lummus Technology, a global provider of process technologies and energy solutions, has been awarded a contract by Haldia Petrochemicals Ltd (HPL) for digitalisation services at HPL’s ethylene plant in West Bengal, India.
 
“For more than two decades, we have collaborated with HPL and provided them with best-in-class process technologies,” said Ujjal Mukherjee, Chief Technology Officer, Lummus Technology. 
 
“This latest award showcases our integrated offering where we provide technologies and other solutions throughout the life cycle of a plant. HPL will be able to leverage Lummus’ proprietary know-how, process expertise and digital solutions to enhance the plant for peak performance and optimise OPEX.”
 
First O3STM award in India
The award is Lummus’ first O3STM award in India. Lummus will provide its digitalisation, training and knowledge transfer services for HPL’s ethylene plant. Previously, Lummus was awarded a contract for the license and basic engineering for the same unit, which builds on the 25-plus years HPL has licensed Lummus’ technologies for its operations.
 
O3STM is part of a broad array of training and digitalisation services Lummus provides to licensees to meet specific and individual requirements. These services include hands-on opportunities to simulate plant operation, which enables operational teams to run the plant in a safer, more productive way, leading to better performance, higher efficiency and less waste.--TradeArabia News Service
