SimSci-Esscor joins Petris’ ASP Service

Posted: 5 December 2003

PetrisWINDS NOW! to provide process simulation software applications via the internet

SimSci-Esscor, an operating unit of Invensys, announced today it will provide solutions from its Upstream Optimization Suite and its Process Engineering Suite (PES) via the Internet. These products will be offered on a monthly trial and subscription basis via PetrisWINDS NOW!, a premier application services provider (ASP) to the oil & gas and energy industries.

“The alliance with Petris provides our user community of process, facility, reservoir and production engineers with an innovative and time-efficient way to access SimSci-Esscor software,” said Marty Kurowski, Vice President of Marketing for SimSci-Esscor. “This simple means of distribution will also help us reach a much broader market.”

SimSci-Esscor's upstream optimization suite combines the modeling needs of the upstream sector with the company’s simulation and optimization expertise to deliver best-in-class solutions to oil and gas asset management problems. PES improves engineering productivity and increases plant profitability through process engineering design and operational analysis.

Engineers can now have immediate access to these process simulation applications with only one PetrisWINDS NOW! contract. These Web-based applications can help reduce the internal support requirements and significantly extend the life of existing hardware. The low-entry pricing structure also helps to reduce a company’s capital expenditures and makes using these products a part of a more efficient operational process. In making these programs available via the Internet, engineering and producing companies also can benefit by having anywhere, anytime access to critical information.

SimSci-Esscor joins a growing list of best-in-class independent software vendors offering their software to the energy industry through PetrisWINDS NOW! This Web-based work environment features vendor neutral, on-demand software to meet the different business needs of a user organization. Petris can provide ASP services via the Internet or create and manage a similar solution behind a company’s firewall.

“The process simulation applications that SimSci-Esscor provides greatly enhance the solution set we can provide our clients,” says Jim Pritchett, Petris CEO. “SimSci-Esscor is an excellent complement to our growing body of software and services offered to the energy industry. Their software will benefit production technologists and reservoir planning engineers or those working in process engineering and pipeline design by helping them perform with greater efficiency and significantly lower costs.”
