Solomon Develops Tool to Identify Energy Reduction Opportunities

Solomon’s new Energy Diagnostic tool is designed to assist with identifying energy performance improvement opportunities in electric power and fuel consumption, as well as steam system utilization, based on the most efficient energy performers in Solomon’s extensive database. In addition to analyzing crude unit preheat exchanger trains and comparing them to the best performing units in our worldwide database, Energy Diagnostic calculates compressor  and steam turbine efficiencies, furnace and boiler efficiencies, and other parameters, then compares them to established realistic targets based on sound engineering parameters or your equipment’s specific design parameters..

According to Charles Reith, Consulting Vice-President, “These are not just theoretical values, but the best you can achieve based on your refinery’s configuration. With Energy Diagnostic, you will know in which specific areas you are less efficient than better-performing peers and where you should concentrate your resources to improve your facility’s energy efficiency.”

Companies interested in taking advantage of quickly diagnosing their refinery’s energy consumption through Energy Diagnostic should contact Solomon here.


Since 1980, Solomon has provided benchmarking and performance improvement consulting services to the energy industry to help clients identify and close their performance gaps to realize the full margin potential of their assets. To do this, we rely on experienced and innovative industry-specific teams to apply their knowledge to evaluate and improve upon each operation we analyze.
