Abstract
To supply the steam and electricity demands of the Shell Oil Company Deer Park Manufacturing Complex takes a large Utilities installation. In managing this system, the aim is to achieve an optimum balance between efficiency and reliability.
This paper examines some of the areas which need to be managed, suggests how to resolve the conflict between efficiency and reliability, looks at the management techniques in use at Deer Park, and comments upon benefits arising out of an energy management program.
