Abstract


Sasol is represented in more than 4 continents and more than a dozen regions with differing time zones. Monitoring activities from these sites was very tedious. Through the “Global View” web interface, a human element at Sasol in Sasolburg can for the first time be able to efficiently monitor Sasol sites in these different geographical locations. As a consequence, from an operational perspective, relevant information is brought together from multiple systems. The interface linking the human element at Sasolburg with other Sasol sites is a combination of geographical views and system information. It thus orients the user geographically by displaying information about a specific site locally, regionally, nationally and internationally in a global fashion.
