Integrated Refinery Intelligence Platform
The AI-native operating system for the modern refinery. Six service lines and a focused set of modules — crude planning, financials, market intelligence, assays, reconciliation, yield accounting and workforce — sharing one curated knowledge base, with more shipping through the year.
Refinium AI LLC is a Florida-based software company building the integrated refinery intelligence platform — a focused set of modules covering the economics and workforce of a refinery, plus six service lines spanning training, the Opus Academy LMS, hands-on implementation, AI-native decision support, and expert human review.
We come from inside the refinery — engineering, operations, planning and trading — and we write the tools we always wished we had: explainable, auditable, citation-grounded, and built around how the work actually gets done — in cases, in deliverables, in sign-offs, and in the basis behind every decision.
Bring AI-native, audit-grade decision support to every refinery professional — across process and operations, finance and planning, HR, lab, safety and environmental — so good decisions become faster, more transparent, and defensible.
A refining industry where every recommendation is grounded in the licensed basis, cited inline, and reviewed by a qualified expert — at the speed of conversation. Expert judgment, scaled.
Build the operating system for the decisions that run a refinery. A focused platform of modules, each addressing a specific workflow, all sharing the same knowledge base, audit trail, and decision-grade deliverables.
The Integrated Refinery Intelligence Platform spans the core workflows of a refinery — process simulation, crude planning, finance, market intelligence, production accounting and workforce. Each App is built around the way refinery teams actually work: in cases, with deliverables, under sign-off.
Every module shares the same domain knowledge base, citation engine, and audit trail. The assistant is not a chatbot tacked onto a screen — it is the substrate of every recommendation.
Citations are inline and traceable — engineering standards (API / ASME / NACE), regulations (OSHA / EPA), and financial, HR and environmental policy alike. Procurement, legal, finance and safety can defend every report.
Word / PDF reports with cover page, reviewer sign-off block, and a numbered references list. Professional typography — it looks like a professional deliverable, not a chat transcript.
Each App stands alone — use just REFI-VA AI as a refining advisor, or just REFI-PLAN AI for crude planning. Or compose them into the integrated platform with shared plant context and decision logs.
Our near-term release focuses on the disciplines where Refinium creates the most value today — engineering, planning and finance, and workforce. The rest of the catalog follows on the development roadmap.
Process and simulation engineers.
CFOs, controllers, LP economists and crude traders.
HR leaders, workforce planners and competency leads.
Refinium AI sells across six service lines. Training, the Opus Academy LMS platform, the Expert Network and Implementation Services are available today; the Virtual Advisor and the software modules are in testing and launching this year.

SEE THE MODULES ↓This is the near-term release, in two tiers. In Testing modules are built and completing final QA before going live this year. In Development modules follow on the roadmap. The remainder of the Refinium catalog will be announced per the development plan.
Daily LP optimization of the crude slate, unit balances and product mix. Built-in crude library, shadow prices, sensitivity studies and multi-period horizons, with the Market Intelligence price deck built in.
EBITDA, gross margin per barrel, product margin by slate, netback analysis and P10/P50/P90 scenarios. NPV, IRR, DSCR. Plan-vs-actual variance with drill-down to operating cause.
Four-layer AI price forecasting (ARIMA/GARCH + LSTM/XGBoost + fundamental signals + Monte Carlo). Crack-spread forecasting, P10/P50/P90 fan charts and a crude-selection optimizer. The price spine for planning and financials.
266 crudes. Crude assay library, blend builder, cargo tracking, TBP curves, contamination profiles, blend-compatibility scoring and netback economics. Feeds the Simulator and the Crude Diet Planner.
The data-quality foundation of the platform. Statistical reconciliation of raw DCS / meter / lab data against mass and energy balances. Gross-error detection, unmeasured-variable estimation and instrument-drift tracking.
System of record for what the refinery produced — when, from what feedstocks, at what yields and cost. The bridge between operational data and the financial ledger, and a compliance-driven retention anchor.
Consulting-grade workforce engineering — three-method manpower sizing, org-chart generation, knowledge-gap analysis, compensation intelligence (P10–P90) and predictive attrition and succession. Produces a board-level workforce study.
The transactional HR system of record — payroll, time and attendance, performance and disciplinary, and PSM competency and certification tracking. Refinery-specific and multi-jurisdiction.
Refinery-wide senior-engineer AI advisor grounded in the platform and a curated knowledge base. Explainable, citation-grounded, with calc sheets and Word / PDF deliverables.
Foundational first-principles process simulator — the engine every economics module draws on. Steady-state and dynamic, unit operations and kinetic models, calibrated against PRO/II. Built on a 45-year Fortran codebase, re-architected for Python / FastAPI + React.
Gasoline and diesel blend optimization — octane, cetane, RVP and sulfur giveaway. Recipe optimization against product specs and component economics, adjacent to the Crude Diet Planner.
Live gross refining margin and crack-spread dashboard — combines Market Intelligence prices with actual yields for a real-time, CEO-level view of the margin.
The full Refinium Training curriculum — 2,358 hours of proprietary petroleum-refining content, sold per-seat and per-course. Click a category to expand it, or search by title or code.
Real workflows from across the refinery — planning, finance and workforce. The same patterns play out in your refinery, with your data, your plant and your standards.
You're changing crudes. The planner needs the margin, the economist needs the netback, and the trader wants the assay fit. In minutes, the Virtual Advisor returns one integrated answer — crude compatibility, optimal cut points and the margin delta — with a Word + PDF deliverable for the meeting.
The CFO needs the EBITDA bridge for the board: plan versus actual, by unit and by product. The Financial Analyzer builds the variance with drill-down to operating cause, Yield Accounting supplies the reconciled production volumes, and the Crude Diet Planner shows the margin the slate left on the table.
A board operator's PSM qualification lapses in 30 days, and a unit restart needs three certified operators. Workforce Intelligence flags the gap and the attrition risk; the HR Administrator schedules requalification and tracks the certifications — before either becomes a finding.
