ASPEN Technology, a leading provider of software and services to the process industries, announced the industry’s first web-based software for process modelling and manufacturing.

The new aspenONE features a web and mobile interface that allows process industry professionals to work with aspenONE software through web-enabled devices.

Users can now harness the industry’s most powerful optimization software through corporate network connections via tablets, laptops, or desktop computers and the simplicity of multi-touch gestures.

The new aspenONE web interface provides a single user interface that is common across multiple AspenTech products such as Aspen Plus, Aspen HYSYS, and InfoPlus.21. Now plant engineers and operators have a common reference point for easier exchange of information and data. The web-based user interface makes working with plant models and data in Aspen Plus, Aspen HYSYS, and Aspen InfoPlus.21 as easy as accessing a web page. Built on HTML5, the aspenONE web and mobile interface allows process engineers to interact with models and real-time plant information using touch-enabled devices.

With a simple user experience and easy access to information, enterprises can now empower the broadest range of users to tap the power of AspenTech software – all without specialised product training or desktop software installation.

The seamless user experience allows engineers and plant operators to change work locations without losing project work. This flexibility allows users to start a project in one location and continue it in a different location – via mobile device or desktop – without any loss of work.Powered by Aspen Search, AspenTech’s search engine designed for the process industries, the new aspenONE enables users to find specific process information from across their enterprise in seconds.

Phil Edwards, Staff Scientist, Sabic said: “The new aspenONE web interface is a big step towards ensuring that the right person can always access, select, and use the right model right when it is needed.”
