Because of the flexibility of our MP-5 Data Management system, it has found application in a variety of other circumstances as shown below. Please contact us for further information on how our systems can help you manage your data.

Refinery loss management system

Loss of hydrocarbons from refinery operations means needless loss of profit. We have adapted our data management system for one of our clients to manage the collection of data from refineries worldwide. For the first time this customer can compare in real time the performance of all refineries and performance against target on one single page.

Contaminated Land

Frequently the management of data around land contamination arrives from laboratories in spreadsheets which consultants then translate into paper reports, The value in the data is frequently lost as a consequence. We have provided our system to a number of clients who use it to manage data associated with land contamination. Logs can be associated with boreholes and trial pits and data can be collected over long period of time. Compliance values can be set for different location (e.g. different groundwater boreholes) and data can be viewed spatially through GIS and contour plots. Reports can be prepared and data shared with others in a variety of formats including AGS.

Energy

Working together with our partner Honeywell UK, we have provided our software tools, to a variety of clients (including Park Cakes and Allied Glass) to better manage their energy use.

Without purpose built tools energy managers are frequently forced to scour data in spreadsheets trying to understand how they are performing. Our tools help clients to draw out trends quickly and easily helping companies understand patterns in their energy use and focus on areas where savings can be made.

Pollution Inventories

Many countries publish pollution inventory data which provides the public with information on the national and regional release of pollutants to the environment. These are obligate requirements on industry and exist as a result of particular regional legislation and includes:

• The National Pollution Inventory in Australia
• The Canadian National Pollution Release Inventory
• The Toxics Release Inventory in the USA, borne out of the Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know legislation.
• The Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR) in Europe

We have provided particular report formats for customers, who already use our systems for compliance management, to enable them to produce data to be included in such inventories. Most notable among these are the discharge monitoring reports produced for clients in North America who can then use data in the DMR for Toxics release inventory reporting.
