Application of Similar-data Retrieval System Using Case Based Reasoning to Petroleum Plant

Abstract

This paper reports an application of similar-data retrieval system using case based reasoning (CBR) in petroleum plant. The output of similar-data retrieval system is used in order to identify product properties in crude oil switching. The operational procedure of data-search in crude oil switching is simulated and implemented to the similar-data retrieval. To evaluate, the value of a certain product property by the retrieval system is compared with real operational value. Good results are obtained in the evaluation.
