MEDIA RELEASE PR35252
Interoperability a Key Enhancement of AVEVA Marine
CAMBRIDGE, July 2 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
AVEVA (LSE:AVV) announced today that it has made further enhancements
to its AVEVA Marine portfolio.
With a main focus on interoperability, this new release of the AVEVA
Marine portfolio now offers AVEVA's marine customers extended possibilities
for data exchange between various sources.
AVEVA Marine users will now be able to integrate P&IDs and schematic
diagrams coming from various systems, including the AVEVA P&ID solution.
This brings a real benefit to customers as they are now free to select
their P&ID system from various sources and even to integrate P&IDs from
other authoring systems into a complete model of their project.
AVEVA Marine now also offers a completely new Mechanical Equipment
Interface product using the Step AP203 format. This allows AVEVA Marine
users to easily import mechanical equipments from various sources -
generally generic or mechanical CAD systems - and utilize them in the model
as any Outfitting component. Equipment models, like main engines,
compressors or pumps can now be directly supplied by the manufacturer and
placed with great accuracy in the 3D model, thus reducing the risk of
errors.
Finally, more interoperability between Plant and Marine Outfitting can
be achieved as data in both databases is now made fully exchangeable. This
will allow customers using AVEVA's solutions both in the plant and the
marine sectors to share their models in a much easier way. As an example,
FPSO designers and builders will now be able to share the same data model
for the Outfitting part of the vessel and the top-side. This leads to
reduced design time and better consistency between top-side and floating
platform design.
Bruce Douglas, Vice President of Marketing and Product Strategy at
AVEVA said:
"AVEVA Marine is an integrated solution for shipbuilders, ship
designers and ship operators. It allows engineers and designers on multiple
sites to concurrently create, control and manage change to engineering,
design and production data as a project is developed, in the most
productive and risk-free way."
Richard Longdon, CEO of AVEVA said:
"Earlier this year, we announced the introduction of AVEVA
Instrumentation and AVEVA Diagrams to the plant and marine portfolios.
These products, plus the latest enhancements, have further strengthened the
AVEVA Integrated Design and Engineering offer both to our ship operators
and shipyards clients.
"For ship operators we have an Operations Information Integrity
solution that delivers real cost savings. And for ship builders and ship
design agents, our Integrated Project Execution solution saves time and
money during the project."
