Phillips 66

Chad Ellis, Research Scientist and Former Chromatography Team Leader

How Phillips 66 researchers used DOE to make confident decisions and take action on a six-month project.

The Challenge

Team needed to identify the best model for a DOE application. There wasn't an obvious choice between two different approaches.

The Solution

After discussing pros and cons, they chose the approach with most potential and took action, running a six-month project.

The Results

Successfully completed the project and gained valuable and objective knowledge even with an imperfect model.

"The best way to go into the training is to have at least two specific projects in mind, and to use the training course as a time to evaluate the application of DOE. If you can, talk with your supervisor about how it could fit into your goals. Don't be afraid to take action."
