Smart Digital Twin for Offshore Rig HVAC Energy Optimization
Project Type: Self-Initiated
Project Description
The project delivered a five-discipline integrated HVAC prototype with smart airflow, automated condenser self-cleaning, and real-time supervisory control, successfully meeting all defined specifications and constraints. It achieved at least 85% occupancy detection accuracy, maintained stable comfort conditions, met the required EER, restored comfort within 5 minutes of state changes, and integrated a live dashboard with SPC monitoring alongside an OR supervisory decision layer.
