Tools

RFB Consult uses various software modules (mostly in Excel) for analyzing process engineering and process safety related issues. In today's engineering world many engineers are using complex modeling tools for analysis and design. Our experience is that usually important decisions are made on tacit knowledge  and understanding of technical risk rather than on extensive modeling and analysis. We therefore use simple calculations tools in order to understand the technical risk. Based on this information the critical areas for further review can be understood.

Process Modeling Simulation Software Package 'JOOP'

In 2010 RFB Consult acquired the rights of the 'JOOP' process simulation software package for analyzing process problems in the E&P industry. The software has been developed by a retired Shell engineer with considerable experience in the upstream industry. This software gives accurate results for most E&P process systems.
