 Hello, my name is David Barry. I work for ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company. Today I'd like to share with you some of the news around the world about industrial prototypes and testbed activities associated with open process automation. So I'll start with a slide that sort of shows you where ExxonMobil is at. As you can see at the arrows across the bottom, we started with our proof of concept back in 2016. We have progressed through prototype activities at one of our research facilities and currently we're working on testbed activities. All of this is directed towards someday being in a field trial. We are going to go ask for permission to do that here in a few months. And then we're hoping to have a fully commercially available design and systems available later. We estimate around the 2025-2026 timeframe. As you can see from the pictures, we have a research facility in New Jersey and we set up a system. We took out a legacy DCS system. We upgraded it with the OPA-based architecture. And you can see the second picture on the right is of our testbed, which is located in the Woodlands, Texas, which is just a few miles north of our headquarters campus here in Houston. As you can see, the vision, our goal is standards-based, open, secure, and inoperable DCS architecture. So I want to tell you a little more about our prototype. So in the proof of concept, we were working on the art of the possible. And of course, the next step is, can you run a real process with this system? There's a system built of heterogeneous parts. We picked a pilot facility because of the ease of access as well as it's our first try at running a real process. We found one that is a hydrocarbon catalyst processing facility. It produces data since it's a research facility, but you can see we actually had hydrocarbons, hydrogen crude oil. We did run it at temperature and at pressure. The system size is about 130 real I.O. And we used our friends at Lockheed Martin and Wood to help us with this activity. The proof of concept and the prototype really was put together so that we could demonstrate live examples of interoperability, interchangeability, configuration portability, and application portability. And so when we were done, we effectively reached what we call a TRL-4 level and we were ready to move to the prototype with a TRL-6. And this comes from the NASA TRL levels of readiness. And you can see from the pictures, we used a number of vendor's products. So this is a mixed heterogeneous world. The middle picture in the bottom is actually our whole control cabinet, 34 inch by 34 inch for tall cabinet. And the picture to the bottom right is actually the process. It stands about 12 feet tall and is probably 15 feet long and 8 feet wide. It is truly a pilot facility. We ran it for approximately 12 weeks. Sadly, COVID impacted the schedule of our operator and we had to shut down a little early. We thought we would get to about four months operation, but we did have three months successful operation. And we did demonstrate that this OPA architecture could actually operate this facility as well as the legacy DCS system we migrated from. So moving to today. So that ended in about April of 2020 as we all know what was going on then. So we started working on a test bed facility, which is the next step past the prototype. And we started working with our friends at Yokogawa. We selected them to be the system integrator for the test bed. You can see from the pictures, we started with a facility and had to build our lab room. And as you follow the arrows, you can see it going from warehouse to lab room to equipment installed to actually people working in it. And as I said before, it's really close to our campus facility, which is nice and convenient. We get a lot of chance to go over there and run our experiments. So we have been actually running our experiments since probably about February of 2020. And we are still running them getting ready for our field trial activity. As you can see, it's a bunch of racks that are put together with the various components from various suppliers. The focus of OPA really is to be able to create a system out of heterogeneous parts. We use the test bed to demonstrate the capabilities of the parts, qualify the vendors and their components for usage in the field trial at some point, and then sort of work out our design and our architecture details and questions we may have. Again, the test bed's goal is to get us ready for field trials. So at this point, I'd like to turn it over to one of my teammates, Mohan, and he'll tell you some more. My name is Mohan Kalyan-Raman. I work in ExxonMobil Research and Engineering. And I am part of the business working group of the Open Process Automation Forum. I co-chair the marketing and outreach subcommittee. I'm going to be talking about the demonstration systems and prototyping activities from OPA forum end users, members. So as end users, we firmly believe that open process control systems based on open architecture and defined standards would allow us to use the best-in-class components. It will simplify integration problems and make it easier to insert new technology and drive innovation in the system, deploy control at the right levels, and have complete transparency to data and fully complete the picture on digital transformation. The implementation of a standard has to be tested out in a real system. And in order to accelerate the adoption of the OPA standard, end user companies are actually taking the lead in taking the available components and assembling them to real systems to test against the standard. So in 2019, ExxonMobil and a group of end user companies joined together to test and to accelerate the development of OPA space systems. So we have a total of nine collaboration partner companies. And you can see the list here which includes Aramco, VASF, Panacoflips, DAO, of course ExxonMobil, Georgia Pacific, Lindy, Reliance and Shell. So the companies will actually start their own testbed activities. They will share non-competitive learnings for the testbed systems. The collaboration partner companies plan to develop and conduct testbed experiments. Each partner will select their own simulator and evaluate the, according to their latest OPA standards. And in addition, the companies plan to progress to parallel field trials to test out real systems and actual operations. So this slide really shows you the various announced and demonstrated testbed systems put together both by the ExxonMobil collaboration partners and other end user companies. So in the top left panel, you'll see the demonstrator shown by VASF and they call it the OPAS demonstrator. They showed it off at the Nemo General Assembly in 2019. So the system really consisted of pumps, tanks, and they used water as a medium. They showed the pumping action, controlling the set point for heating and cooling, as well as level control. It used distributed control node DCN from Phoenix Contact. It used the advanced computing platform from Wind River Titanium and software from ABB. The communication was done using OPC UA. The interoperability of heterogeneous components was shown and illustrated principles of open process architecture, open process automation, information models using MTP and principles of Namur open architecture. In the middle and in the top middle, you'll see the announced system by Georgia Pacific. Georgia Pacific is building a demo display board. The unit is meant to be skid mount and portable and it will use Siemens as a systems integrator. The gateway is provided by Rockwell and DCNs from various other vendors and business. They plan to take this unit to various operation locations and use it for awareness and training of open process architecture. On the top right, you see the announcement of a test facility in Daftan by Arango. They're planning to use Schneider Electric as a systems integrator. This test facility will be used to validate technology based on OPACS. It will serve as a place for collaboration partners to conduct experiments and they also plan to use this to interact and collaborate with leading academic institutions. Ultimately, Arango plans to use this facility to test and prepare for a field trial deployment of an open process system. In the bottom left, you see the announcement by Petronas. Petronas, they've announced a test facility built OPA capabilities in Malaysia and they plan to demonstrate OPA and OPA capabilities into their facilities and prepare for a field trial. In the bottom middle, you see the proof of concept that was talked about. So ExxonMobil have talked about it before. This was using Lockheed Mart as a systems integrator to show the various quality attributes by using heterogeneous components from various suppliers, the quality attributes of interoperability, interchangeability, configuration portability, and application portability. In the bottom right, you see the work done by DAO chemicals. DAO has worked as part of the MXT initiative with ADI and University of Michigan and their intent in this was to actually show the plug-and-play interoperability across various vendor components. They also demonstrate the OPA computing framework and deployment of open automation digital twin functionality. So the takeaway really is that the operating companies are investing in and proving out open architect systems built to the OPA standard. So the idea behind this is really to accelerate development, to learn from each other, and to conduct field trials and drive the open process automation towards commercialization. So finally, let me conclude with a call to action. So there is a growing movement towards open automation led by end users and leading system indicators, leading hardware suppliers and software suppliers. So you can learn more about the open process automation forum at the website shown or just Google open process automation forum. You can also download the version 2.1 of the standard that was just published in May and at the open group site. Our call to you is to join the growing movement of 100 plus companies that are all moving to open process automation. If you want to add your voice, be an early mover and reap the benefits of open architecture, whether you're a hardware supplier, a software supplier, a system integrator or an end user. There is a growing marketplace waiting to be tapped and value available for the take. So join us on this undertaking. Thank you.
