Project summary
The Jiangsu Longteng special steel 60-megawatt project is the world’s first ultra-high-pressure, subcritical gas generator set with the smallest installed capacity. Capital Engineering & Research Corporation undertook design and construction and faced technical and coordination challenges compounded by a short timeline and limited space. To prevent clashes and simultaneously construct the physical factory and its digital twin, they needed to use open modeling applications in a connected data environment.They used Bentley applications to establish a collaborative design platform, reducing design errors, and perform construction simulation, optimizing construction. With Bentley’s openness, they built a digital model of the entire factory with an engineering data center to achieve digital delivery based on full lifecycle information, establishing the foundation for intelligent plant operations. They reduced the cost of steel while also reducing gas emissions by 1.4 million cubic meters.
