How to use this calculator
- Select one or more use cases by checking the boxes. Keep in mind, deploying all four together will maximize greater gains. The "standard private network connectivity" use case is pre-selected and cannot be unselected.
- Enter your refinery's area (in sq km for network coverage), production throughput (in BPD), engineer costs, total employees using the network, and the number of technical/safety inspectors.
- Watch the ROI update in real-time. Hover over the value buildup chart to see the percentage benefits for each use case.
