As tariffs, refinery closures and shifting trade conditions reshape traditional feedstock flows, refineries are investing in infrastructure improvements that allow for more flexible crude processing. Feedstock flexibility can be a practical strategy for facilities working to navigate cost pressures, supply variability and operational uncertainty. Explore how integrating infrastructure planning, engineering and construction supports efficient, resilient solutions designed and built for the future. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.li/Q03ycgnm0 #OilandGas #Refining

As grid demands grow, the tools to manage them must evolve. Developed to standardize communication within substations, IEC 61850 allows protection and control systems to shift from hardware-heavy builds to software-driven designs. It simplifies interoperability, supports remote diagnostics and enables early issue detection, all of which are critical for utilities facing growing demand and constrained resources. Learn why this two-decades-old standard is gaining new traction. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.li/Q03wH6vc0 #Power #Telecom

What if you could see invisible hazards before they become real problems? Augmented reality is making that possible on construction sites, helping teams visualize complex work sequences, flag safety concerns and make faster, smarter decisions. By blending 3D models with real-world environments, AR tools are improving planning, enhancing safety and reducing risks. Learn how we’re applying such innovation across a range of projects and field conditions to create safer, more efficient outcomes for project teams. https://xmrrwallet.com/cmx.phubs.li/Q03vNwkl0 #Power #Construction #Technology
