ProSched featuresSeveral modules available which cover

feedstock, operations, product scheduling and blend optimization

Low cost and practical scheduling toolConvenient and user-friendly data entryProSched uses dynamic data entry and

reporting tools, as well as interactive Gantt charts and an advanced graphical user interface all in one user-friendly application.

The logic incorporates standard rules and constraints for obtaining a feasible schedule.

11

Data IntegrationThe user can enter data directly into

ProSched through the user-friendly data entry form in the same application.

This data is entered before the schedule is generated in ProSched. Data can be changed at any time by the user.

ProSched is OPC compliant (OLE for Process Control) and hence can effectively exchange information with any OPC programs such as DCS, SCADA, ERP etc.

Schedule generationProSched is designed to produce

schedules that meet user-specified physical and operational constraints.

Operational constraints include Min./max. tank heels, inventory levels, Min. blender run lengths, time for blender setup, tank line-up, blending recipe, testing etc.

Detailed schedule for each operation is generated.

Models include built-in algorithms containing predetermined rules, logic and infeasibilities.

Built-in algorithms are rigorous and incorporate real events and scenarios in an operating plant

Schedule Optimization

Schedule is optimized based on the algorithms, logic, rules, and constraints in the model including factors such as cost, availability, quantity, capacity, quality, etc.

A report is generated for each operation, indicating key variables such as inventory, capacity, output/input rate, description, service etc.

Developed models include tanks, pipelines, tankers, ships, berths, blenders, unit operations etc. Additional custom models can be easily developed.

In case of infeasibilities, an error message will pop up in the execution log indicating the error.

ProSched will indicate the specific area of the infeasibility, such as unavailable tank or berth, and direct the user to obtain a revised feasible schedule.

17

Gantt Charts ProSched graphically displays the final feasible

schedule. Production run is determined by its start date and time, end date and time, time runs and throughput.

User can modify production runs, properties of selected run and any changes will be updated on the Gantt chart.

Gantt chart uses color coding to illustrate the loading and unloading of equipment, testing and settling times etc. The dynamic chart automatically updates any changes in the schedule.

Gantt chart display can be obtained for a specified time frame, and also allows users to zoom in/out for preferred display
