Industrial plant optimization in reduced dimensional spacesCapstone
This document summarizes an industrial plant optimization lecture given in Toronto. It discusses the history of optimization in oil refining from early adoption in the 1950s to modern real-time optimization (RTO). RTO aims to capture opportunities from changing plant conditions by modeling the plant with engineering equations and optimizing the model in parallel with plant operation. While RTO provides benefits, reconciling measurements, non-linear constraints, and operator acceptance present technical and behavioral challenges. New approaches using projection methods to model plants from historical operating data in reduced dimensional spaces are discussed as alternatives to traditional modeling that may better represent operator preferences and familiarity.
Nicole Bowen has experience leading change through creating and delegating strategic plans and goals both internally and externally at the Department of Children and Families. She is flexible, adaptable, and able to shift between projects as priorities change. Bowen evaluates needs, prepares strategic plans and objectives, and delegates tasks to others to complete while monitoring their progress. She is dedicated to organizational visions and encourages others to understand and follow through on visions.

- PROC TABULATE creates customized tables that display descriptive statistics from SAS data. It allows users to classify and analyze variables to produce one, two, or three-dimensional tables.
- The procedure uses CLASS, VAR, and TABLE statements to specify how variables should be classified, analyzed, and presented in the table. Common statistics like frequency, mean, sum can be calculated and displayed.
- Two-way and multi-dimensional tables can be created to examine relationships between multiple variables. Formatting and summary options provide flexibility in customizing table output.
Oil 101 - A Free Introduction to Oil and Gas
What is Downstream Oil and Gas?
Processing, transporting and selling refined products made from crude oil is the business of the downstream segment of the oil and gas industry.
Key downstream business sectors include:
Oil Refining
Supply and Trading
Product Marketing and Retail
The downstream industry provides thousands of products to end-user customers around the globe.
Many products are familiar such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, heating oil and asphalt for roads. Others are not as familiar such as lubricants, synthetic rubber, plastics, fertilizers and pesticides.
Oil 101 - A Free Introduction to Oil and Gas
Introduction to Supply, Trading, Transportation
This Supply, Trading, and Transportation (S&T) overview includes discussions on What is S&T, what are some of the major risks associated with trading, and some historical perspective on the evolution of S&T.
The complete S&T Module includes lessons on crude oil and products supply fundamentals, derivative contracts and exchanges, as well as key business drivers in physical trading and financial hedging. Natural gas trading is beyond our scope though it has a similar commercial function, closely tied to the utility and power consumer market.
What is Supply and Trading?
To help answer that question, let’s look briefly at how Chevron defines S&T on their website.
“Chevron Supply and Trading (S&T) provides a critical link between the market and Chevron's upstream, downstream and chemicals companies. S&T provides commercial support to Chevron's crude oil and natural gas production operations as well as to the company's refining and marketing network.”
Programmable logic controllers (PLCs) are digital electronic devices used to automate industrial processes. A PLC consists of a central processing unit, input/output modules, and a programming device. PLCs scan their program continuously and cyclically to monitor inputs and control outputs. They are programmed using ladder logic to perform functions like timing, counting, and controlling relays. PLCs are used widely in applications like process control, machinery control, and some CNC machine functions. Factors like the number of I/O points, memory, and scan time are considered when selecting a suitable PLC for an application.

Ethan and his family stayed on Green Island for two days. On the first day, they went snorkeling and Ethan saw many beautiful fish swimming in the sea, which made him happy. The next day, they went to a famous saltwater hot spring called Asahi Hot Spring. They soaked in the hot spring and enjoyed watching the sunrise.
An acrostic poem is a poem where the first letter of each line spells out a word or phrase when read vertically. The word or phrase can be a name or thing. Acrostics are easy to write because they don't need to rhyme and lines can be different lengths. To create an acrostic, decide the topic, write the word vertically, brainstorm words for each letter line, and fill in the rest of the lines to complete the poem. Examples of acrostics about ice cream and Easter are provided.
The poem describes an Easter egg hunt from the perspective of a child. It details the excitement of searching for colorful, hidden eggs all over the yard and environment, from behind trees to inside bushes and hats. However, the child expresses frustration as other kids find more eggs. In the end, another child sees the main character was heading for an egg and allows them to have it, bringing the poem to a happy conclusion on Easter day.
The document discusses the use of "local plus" compensation packages for expatriates in Asia. Local plus packages pay expatriates according to the host country's salary structure and benefits, plus some additional expatriate benefits. They are increasingly common in Asia as a lower-cost alternative to traditional expatriate packages. The key points discussed include:
- Local plus packages are more common in Singapore and Hong Kong than China due to challenges in China like high taxes and inability for foreigners to access social programs.
- Benefits provided under local plus packages vary between locations and employers - for example, dependent education assistance and housing assistance are more commonly offered in China while pension plans often utilize host country schemes in Singapore and Hong Kong.
