Optimizing Plant Functionality and Cost

Early Project Decisions

Bentley PlantWise enables rapid creation of automatically piped 3D plant concepts for immediate collaborative review well in advance of detailing.

Its automatic routing and immediate costing of piping and steel makes possible early and real time "what-if" analysis of unlimited plant layout scenarios for ultimate plant optimization.

Highlights

Reduced Lifecycle Costs
PlantWise can save lifecycle costs through early review of the 3D design for maintenance and operability concerns. Even before any detailed design has begun, operators and contractors can walk through the fully-piped 3D plant model, find operations access problems, and immediately make adjustments. PlantWise re-routes the model to test and validate the solution.

New Features for V8i Version

Drawing Obstacle Capture
PlantWise can capture 3D elements from the current design file or a referenced design file (.DGN or .DWG) as obstacles in the current model.

Drawing Equipment Capture
PlantWise can capture equipment graphics from a design file (.DGN or .DWG) as a PlantWise equipment class and immediately instantiate it in the current model.
