The first artificial intelligence (AI) programmed Expert Adviser for the corrosion control of a refinery process unit has been installed at the Sun Refining and Marketing Co. Yabucoa Refinery. The ''MOR or LES'' crude unit expert adviser is a resident part of the operating computer system and is available on a call basis to the chief operator through his CRT computer console in the control room. Other operations personnel also have access to the Adviser guidelines through their own operating system terminals. The Adviser provides real time analysis of the process conditions and is configured to become an automatic process control system. Details regarding the problem definition, system logic, and informational responses will be presented in this technical paper. An overview of the AI programming development and conversion to the operational computer system will be discussed in general terms.
