Honeywell UOP Launches Connected Performance Services to Boost Plant Efficiency & Reduce Downtime

Honeywell UOP has unveiled Connected Performance Services (CPS), a cloud‑enabled, data‑driven platform that empowers refineries, petrochemical plants, and gas processing facilities to elevate performance and cut costly downtime.

Built on advanced analytics and machine learning, CPS continuously ingests streaming plant data, compares it against proven process models and industry best practices, and surfaces latent inefficiencies before they evolve into costly failures. The system delivers real‑time alerts and actionable recommendations directly to operators, enabling faster, evidence‑based decision making.

Key capabilities include:

• Asset utilization optimization to ensure every unit runs at peak performance.
• Predictive monitoring that anticipates equipment degradation and prevents unplanned outages.
• Energy‑usage analytics that support compliance with tightening environmental regulations while driving measurable cost savings.
• Intuitive dashboards that provide plant‑wide context and are simultaneously shared with a dedicated process advisor for expert oversight.

“This cloud‑enabled service makes plants smarter and more responsive,” said Zak Alzein, Vice President of CPS. “By detecting performance issues that would otherwise remain hidden for weeks or months, we enable rapid, proactive action that can save millions of dollars per year.”

Alzein added that the unique strength of CPS lies in the fusion of customer operating data with UOP’s deep industry expertise, delivering early‑warning insights that drive continuous improvement. “Advancements in software, instrumentation, and Big Data have finally converged to enable the first truly cloud‑based IIoT solution for the oil and gas sector,” he said.
