Pro. Sched features l Several modules available which cover feedstock, operations, product scheduling and blend optimization l Low cost and practical scheduling tool l Convenient and user-friendly data entry l Pro. Sched 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. l The logic incorporates standard rules and constraints for obtaining a feasible schedule. 10

Data Integration l The user can enter data directly into Pro. Sched through the user-friendly data entry form in the same application. l This data is entered before the schedule is generated in Pro. Sched. Data can be changed at any time by the user. l Pro. Sched is OPC compliant (OLE for Process Control) and hence can effectively exchange information with any OPC programs such as DCS, SCADA, ERP etc. 11

Schedule generation l Pro. Sched is designed to produce schedules that meet user-specified physical and operational constraints. l Operational constraints include Min. /max. tank heels, inventory levels, Min. blender run lengths, time for blender setup, tank line-up, blending recipe, testing etc. l Detailed schedule for each operation is generated. l Models include built-in algorithms containing predetermined rules, logic and infeasibilities. l Built-in algorithms are rigorous and incorporate real events and scenarios in an operating plant 14

Typical Tank Report 15

Schedule Optimization l Schedule is optimized based on the algorithms, logic, rules, and constraints in the model including factors such as cost, availability, quantity, capacity, quality, etc. l A report is generated for each operation, indicating key variables such as inventory, capacity, output/input rate, description, service etc. l Developed models include tanks, pipelines, tankers, ships, berths, blenders, unit operations etc. Additional custom models can be easily developed. l In case of infeasibilities, an error message will pop up in the execution log indicating the error. l Pro. Sched will indicate the specific area of the infeasibility, such as unavailable tank or berth, and direct the user to obtain a revised feasible schedule. 16

Gantt Charts l Pro. Sched graphically displays the final feasible schedule. Production run is determined by its start date and time, end date and time, time runs and throughput. l User can modify production runs, properties of selected run and any changes will be updated on the Gantt chart. l 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. l Gantt chart display can be obtained for a specified time frame, and also allows users to zoom in/out for preferred display 17
