Braskem is bringing Structural Performance Management (SPM) to its operations because its engineers need AI they can trust, and models trained only on historical data aren’t enough. SPM is built...
Did you know Wichita is the Air Capital of the World? The city earned that name by engineering aircraft to exact limits. Generations of local engineers, machinists and contractors built...
When the spread is this high, every refiner wants more barrels through the FCC, the crude unit, or shorter coker drum cycles. The Trading Economics Crack Spread index, which tracks...
The man who founded Uber has decided the next big thing is not an app. It is steel, concrete and machinery. Travis Kalanick now argues that mining, construction, heavy transport...
Akselos and UPTEC Solutions have signed a partnership to deploy Structural Performance Management (SPM) with petrochemical operators in Latin America, starting with a defined set of critical equipment in Brazil....
The industrial sector is moving toward structural twins that can inform real decisions during live operation. To get around the computational limits of traditional Finite Element Analysis (FEA), the industry...
A new technology category has taken shape in industrial operations. AI for Structural Integrity (AI4SI) is the application of physics AI to structural assets, connecting real-time operating conditions to structural...
APM and AIM have delivered real gains. Maintenance is tighter. Inspection is smarter. Reliability has improved. And yet the ceiling holds. Throughput stays flat. Asset life is managed by assumption....
Asset integrity management is widely trusted as the foundation of safe and reliable operations. It gives operators confidence that critical equipment can run without failure, within clearly defined boundaries. And...
CERAWeek 2026 showed a clear shift in the energy industry’s priorities. The discussion has moved beyond broad digital transformation narratives and toward a more immediate operational reality: how to run...
