Unfolding the Details

Goals:

• Maximized Data Utilization: OKG sought to leverage its data more effectively to ensure timely insights into critical equipment and improve the visibility of non-critical devices.
• Preventative Maintenance: By detecting faults early, the goal was to prevent downtime and improve maintenance planning.
• Strict Safety Compliance: The solution needed to comply with rigorous safety and information security standards essential for nuclear power plant operations.

Solution:

• Prexello at the Core: Prexello’s AI algorithms and advanced machine learning models drive the Caverion Intelligence solution. By analyzing real-time data, Prexello predicts equipment failures, ensuring early detection of deviations before they develop into critical failures.
• Anomaly Detection Service: Prexello’s powerful AI models, integrated within Caverion Intelligence, track the plant’s operations using existing process data. By understanding various operational modes and identifying relationships between data points, it accurately spots anomalies and predicts disturbances, enabling proactive management.
• Expert Collaboration: While Prexello provides the technological backbone, Caverion’s industry experts work closely with OKG through regular status meetings. This collaboration ensures that the system is continuously optimized, while maintaining high levels of security by restricting external access.
• User-Friendly Design: Prexello’s web-based interface is intuitive, enabling OKG’s plant staff to easily use the system for daily operations. Data analysis is a collaborative effort between the plant’s experts, fostering knowledge sharing and enhanced understanding of plant conditions.
• Early Detection of Disturbances: Prexello’s AI allows the plant to detect disturbances early, providing additional time for plant operators to take action before any set safety thresholds are reached, ensuring smooth and safe operations.

Conclusion

By adopting Prexello-powered Caverion Intelligence, OKG has significantly improved its ability to predict and prevent equipment failures. Prexello’s cutting-edge AI, combined with Caverion’s expert input, enables OKG to maximize data usage, enhance maintenance strategies, and meet strict safety standards, all while ensuring the ongoing reliability of the Oskarshamn nuclear power plant.
