AVEVA announced that the Vice Presidency of Projects VP at Chile’s state run Corporación Nacional del Cobre are using AVEVA NET as its information management solution for the execution of important capital projects in Chile. This follows an extensive evaluation against several competitors.
AVEVA NET is enabling CODELCO, for the first time to bring together and analyse crucial engineering data from different systems involved in the execution of the projects into a single view. This gives the mining company improved efficiency, greater information control and thereby improves data access, accuracy and consistency throughout the operation. The company expects to achieve increased productivity, improved decision making capabilities and to reduce costly rework.
Mr Eugenio Gómez Retamal Technology Platform Director for CODELCO VP said that “AVEVA NET serves as our centralized portal in which all the information created by the contractors may be visualized and reported on. Although this is a fraction of what the system can do it already addresses one of CODELCO’s crucial pain points: allowing several people in different locations to visualize and perform markups on the engineering documents and 3D Models regardless of its source. In addition, AVEVA NET enables CODELCO to more quickly understand the data it receives from contractors, allowing rapid decisions that enhance all of VP’s existing procedures.”
Mr Luis Maturana Leighton Functional Specialist Engineer of CODELCO VP said that “AVEVA NET delivered excellent results on a very tight schedule, and in a scenario where most of the software involved came from third party companies.”
Mr Santiago Pena senior VP of Latin America AVEVA said that “This solution will allow CODELCO to accurately and efficiently manage very large amounts of data with total interoperability between several different and previously incompatible systems. AVEVA NET’s abilities will prove beneficial in every phase of their operations from FEED to commissioning.”
