Invensys Operations Management, a global provider of technology systems, software solutions and consulting services to the manufacturing and infrastructure operations industries, today announced that it has acquired Spiral Software, a privately held company headquartered in Cambridge, the United Kingdom.
Founded in 1998, Spiral Software provides integrated solutions ranging from crude assay management to refinery supply chain optimization, enabling clients to make the best possible choices in trading and refining crude oil. Spiral’s industry-leading crude oil knowledge management tools help companies track the quality of feedstocks and predict their refining behavior. Fully-integrated refinery planning and scheduling help optimize production plans based on real-time crude demand and market pricing, as well as the refinery’s own capacity and supply chain constraints.
“Acquiring Spiral Software strengthens our leadership position in the hydrocarbon processing industry and reinforces our commitment to helping our HPI customers optimize all aspects of their business operations,” said Mike Caliel, president and chief executive officer, Invensys Operations Management. “Spiral software further extends our refinery optimization solutions in support of our global installed base and gives us the most comprehensive portfolio in the refining and petrochemical industries. By continuing to expand our portfolio, we are well positioned to compete on global pursuits in these strong and growing markets.”
