ANALYSIS OF SOFTWARE SYSTEMS AND PROBLEM STATEMENT OF INTEGRATED LOGISTIC SUPPORT OF PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS PIPELINES
In this paper, the results of analysis of software systems as a tool for the computerization of integrated logistic support of petrochemical plants pipelines are presented. It is shown that the considered software systems can be combined into three classes: general universal; applied universal; applied specialized. From the general universal software systems the complex of Microsoft Office programs was considered. From the applied universal - basic versions of software: «AutoCAD» (Autodesk, USA), «MicroStation» (Bentley Systems, USA), «Kompas-3D» (Ascon, Russian Federation); «T-Flex» (TOP Systems, Russian Federation). From the applied specialized program systems was considered: application to «Kompas-3D» - «Equipment: Pipelines» and «LOTSMAN:PLM» system; «Model Studio CS Troboprovody» (ZAO CSoft Development, Russian Federation); products of NTP «Truboprovod» (Russian Federation) including the «Start» program; «ASTRA-NOVA» (ZAO NITs «StaDiO», Russian Federation); «PLANT-4D Pipe» and «PLANT-4D Personal Isogen» (CEA Technology, Netherlands); «SolidWorks Routing» (SolidWorks Corporation, USA); «Isogen» (Alias Ltd, UK). «AVEVA Plant» and «AVEVA Enterprise» (AVEVA, UK); «Global-EAM» (Biznes Tehnologii, Russian Federation); «SAP R/3» (SAP AG, Germany); «PCMS» (PCMS, USA). The brief description of the considered software systems is given, their advantages and disadvantages as tools of computerization of the integrated logistical support of pipelines are shown. Based on the results of the analysis, a formalized formulation of the tasks of integrated logistics support of petrochemical plants pipeline systems is carried out. It is noted that the implementation of the tasks set will ensure prompt acceptance of scientifically-substantiated decisions on the logistical support of pipeline systems at all stages of the life cycle, which will optimize the costs of pipeline operation with simultaneous increase of reliability, industrial and environmental safety, and the economic efficiency of petrochemical enterprises.
