Bently Nevada Control System Optimization: 3 Strategies Saving $1.2M Annually
1. Modular Architecture Implementation
• Commissioning time reduced 35% using System 1™ templates (420 labor hours saved at Gulf Coast refinery)
• DCS downtime minimized to 6.2 hrs/month vs industry average 22 hrs through 3500/46M phased integration
2. AI-Driven Component Rationalization
• Machine learning identified 34 redundant PLC I/O points at BASF Ludwigshafen (€31k/year savings)
• Digital twins reduced control logic complexity by 29% across 12 pilot sites
3. Lifecycle Cost Analysis
• Hydro-Québec achieved €2.7M savings over 10 years via APM-optimized transducer inventories
• VFD right-sizing boosted pump efficiency 17% (€126k/year energy savings)
Quantified Results
▶ MTTR improvement: 31% (8.7 → 6.0 hours) at Canadian mining sites
▶ Compliance violations: 63% reduction across 45 EU facilities
▶ Predictive accuracy: 92% bearing failure detection in offshore drills
