“ Intergraph基于规则的3D设计解决方案与GEXCON FLACS爆炸分析软件之间的接口可以帮助设计师提高生产率并在工厂建设开始之前提高安全性,”行业分析公司ARC Advisory Group的高级分析师Tom Fiske说。

GEXCON是一家专门从事计算流体动力学的挪威软件开发人员和咨询公司,根据设计,设施中爆炸的机会和影响开发了FLACS。它开发了该工具,并提供了世界上10个最大的石油和天然气公司的指导和支持,该公司使用该工具来识别危害和后果。

Prior to the newly announced interface with Intergraph’s SmartPlant and SmartMarine 3D design products, using FLACS required remodeling the facility from scratch, which could take months. Intergraph’s rules-based design software enforces safety early in the designing process, ensuring compliance with safety standards from the industry and its organizations. The interface will make safe designing faster and more cost efficient, the companies claim.
