Client Testimonials

“The dynamic production model (DPM) chosen for Snøhvit will supervise the flow of gas, condensate and water from the subsea field installations to the process plant at Melkøya. Keeping tabs on liquid volumes in the pipeline and managing this flow into the gas liquefaction plant is the Production Management System’s primary job.”

“It has been mostly a pleasure and I can honestly say I have been thoroughly impressed with the dedication and professionalism of all of your staff there at Kongsberg. I will have no hesitation in recommending your product/company for future projects and hope this will not be the last time we do business together ”.

“The Snøhvit simulator is probably Statoil’s most complex dynamic simulator and I am very satisfied with what the Kongsberg
team has delivered. I am sure that the simulator will be invaluable throughout the life of the project: In verifying the process design and control strategies, in troubleshooting the plant automation systems prior to start-up and as a high fidelity training system to develop our operators’ competence. Following start-up we intend to use the simulator to optimise plant operation and test advanced control applications.”

“D-SPICE® has been a truly pleasant experience among the process simulator tools I’ve used. It steps up to the complexity and great challenges of modelling a complete baseload LNG plant with elegant simplicity, great robustness and impressive level of detail. Our simulator is in daily use and is an invaluable tool for testing and reviewing operational procedures, testing process and control design and for Operator Training. Kongsberg’s training and support have been top-notch, which translates to user confidence and a noticeable improvement in productivity and added value for Hammerfest LNG Operation.”
