Grants and Contributions

This International Co-Innovation Action Program (ICAP) project will prepare the firm to enter into future international co-innovation work.

Venturi is a pipeline engineering company offering real-time energy analytic solutions. The client is looking for innovation partners who are large crude oil pipeline operators in the Middle East market who would like to save operating cost by 10-20% annually while reducing GHG emissions

The expected outcomes of CSJ are: .• Youth are employed, in training or education, or in further employment services and interventions..

This Project is to complete crude pipeline hydraulic simulations and document the analysis in a technical report.
Technical Skills: E.I.T. with fundamental academic and work experience in computational fluid dynamics. They have desire to learn to build, maintain, and simulate various hydraulic models in an environment that will allow them to contribute meaningfully to the organization in a short time and learn from senior members of the operations team.
Tech Stack: Python, R, VBA, AFT Fathom, AFT Impulse, DNV Synergi Pipeline Simulator, ATMOS Leak Detection
Skills: Data Visualization, Algorithmic Problem Solving, Hydraulic Software Simulations, Process Control Loop Tuning, Statistical Analysis, Technical Writing, Technical Documentation

Through the application of national and local priorities, the CSJ program seeks to provide youth, particularly those who face barriers to employment with access to work opportunities. Funded employers must demonstrate that they are providing quality work experiences for youth that provide opportunities to develop and improve their skills.

The technology project being developed is an energy optimization platform that will recommend optimal pressure setpoints, pump configurations and manage DRA (Drag Reducing Agent) injections in real-time using SCADA / historical data for large scale pipeline operators.

The IRAP YEP Program will be used to enhance Venturi staffing for pipeline analysis and LDS testing / upgrades. The company is actively accelerating technology development in machine learning and mathematical optimization to tackle GHG emission reduction for the firm's industrial partners and customers. In addition, Venturi's domain knowledge with pipeline operations has positioned the company to provide safer operations to customers via enhanced performance of leak detection systems.

Develop a novel ML (machine learning) approach to help monitor and predict the performance of industrial centrifugal pumps.

Pumped systems account for more than 20% of electrical energy consumption; and it is vital to understand its performance to optimize their connected industrial systems and reduce GHG emissions

With our domain knowledge, we have identified a gap in large scale pipelines to monitor their centrifugal pumps and optimize their operations as equipment testing typically happens during initial factory acceptance and after equipment failure. Pump performance is not actively monitored during its life cycle, which over time, can lead to unnoticed degradation and unplanned outages.
