Abstract: Systems and methods manage unit operating data of a customer. A customer may be a refinery or any other entity that utilizes unit operating data. Unit operating data may include feed stock data, operations data, yield data, and catalyst data. An analysis service provider analyzes the unit operating data and makes results of the analysis accessible to the customer. The analysis may be based on historical data, industry-wide data, or changes in feed stock data, operations data, yield data, and catalyst data.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide information to a customer via a network. In one embodiment, the information may include test results that are stored in a database, and customers may access the test results via a website. Accordingly, a customer may submit a sample of a substance to an analysis service provider for testing. After conducting tests on the substance sample, the analysis service provider may post the test results on the website. In one embodiment, the test results may pertain, for example, to the analysis of substances related to petrochemical products, such as catalysts, with refineries as the customers. The way in which information is presented to a customer may be customized according to customer preferences. To protect sensitive data, security procedures may include identification of the customer based on his location in the network, such as an IP address of a computer. Customized reports may be generated based on customer-specific needs or industry standards.
