OLI Mission
To develop software solutions based upon state-of-the-art technological developments in the areas of prediction of thermophysical properties and corrosion for electrolyte processes
In the plant
In the environment
In the lab
In the oilfield

Mission deployment
Keep the focus at OLI on ■ Technology development■ Parameter development■ Software development
Locate partner companies and agents■ Sales■ Training■ Applications consulting
… OLI mission will further the science …
... Sales partner missions will deliver the solution

UI strategiesPart I
Reliance on in-place software■ Interfaces are already learned■ Partners have become essential ◊ AspenTech◊ Honeywell◊ SimSci
And let’s all meet in MS Excel

UI StrategiesPart II
For any new interface work■ “Don’t make me think” UI upgrades
◊ Analyzers / next generation ◊ OLI Pro
■ Embody standard practices within programs◊ Scale Analyzer plans

Software delivery changes
Keyless software access“Check out” copies from network sourceSoftware downloads area■ Media is always available upon request
Network pricing considers size as well as scope“One project” subscription pricing is available

Application screening
Determine feasibility■ Can OLI cover my chemistry?■ Can OLI address my process?Determine optimal solution■ Which software package?Determine optimal access■ Which type of lease? ■ Consulting instead?
Available from OLI Sales Partners

Turnkey leases
Case created for client■ Experienced electrolyte simulation experts ■ Questions on setup■ Review of resultsPurchase of a short- (or long-) term lease■ Ability to run “what-if” scenarios■ Ability to use program features to analyze results
