While a standard DCS allows operators to see what is happening right now , AspenOne Process Explorer allows engineers to understand what happened, why it happened, and what will likely happen next . It acts as a sophisticated client interface that retrieves archived process data, enabling users to view trends, analyze batch processes, and create comprehensive process diagrams.
AspenOne Process Explorer is a designed to bridge the gap between process simulation (Aspen Plus/HYSYS) and enterprise-wide data. Unlike typical simulation viewers, it is built to aggregate, compare, and distribute simulation cases, plant data, and design specifications across an organization without requiring end-users to own or learn simulation software. aspenone process explorer
Think of it as the "Google Maps" for your refinery, chemical plant, or pharmaceutical facility. Just as a map shows traffic jams (alarms), alternate routes (optimization), and points of interest (key performance indicators), the Process Explorer gives you a high-fidelity, interactive graphical view of your process. While a standard DCS allows operators to see
Data
Built on modern web architecture (HTML5/JavaScript), is accessible via any standard browser—no thick client installation required on the operator’s workstation. It supports OAuth 2.0 and LDAP integration, ensuring that role-based access control (RBAC) is enforced. A control room operator might see write-access to setpoints, while a manager sees only read-only dashboards. Unlike typical simulation viewers, it is built to
