Cybernetica is a Norwegian provider of optimization solutions for the process industries. Founded in 2000, its core products and methodologies center on Cybernetica CENIT, model predictive control (MPC/NMPC), soft sensors, process simulators, and operator support systems. Its key target industries include metallurgy, energy, and polymer production. The company states that CENIT installations span 4 continents, 10 countries, 35 sites, and 670 applications.
Its technology focus is not general-purpose office SaaS, but advanced process control for industrial sites. CENIT supports nonlinear model predictive control, first-principles mathematical models, online model adaptation, fault detection and diagnosis, and the ability to reproduce historical or current operating conditions for analysis. Metallurgy use cases include aluminum electrolysis, smelting furnaces, metal refining, and thermal imaging. Energy use cases include oil and gas production, gas processing, CO2 capture, and district heating optimization. Polymer use cases cover continuous, batch, and semi-batch polymerization processes, with emphasis on endpoint prediction, quality control, and reducing transition time.
The website does not disclose standard plans, pricing, a free version, or a trial. Its main commercial model is to deliver and maintain turnkey MPC applications, with implementation based on either existing models or newly developed ones. For customers with in-house engineering capabilities, Cybernetica can also license its software for internal development, and offers training ranging from short webinars to one-week hands-on courses, as well as consulting and software development services.
Disclosed integration methods include Windows Server deployment, OPC communication, and use of the Modelica Oil & Gas model library via FMI together with estimation and control products. On security, the focus is more on industrial process safety: installing CENIT does not require changes to existing safety systems, and the company emphasizes fault detection, diagnosis, and maintaining safety integrity. The website does not disclose information about cloud deployment, account permissions, data encryption, compliance certifications, or a public API.
Its strengths are strong industry focus, deep engineering experience, and suitability for complex process industries with strong nonlinearities, difficult measurements, and strict quality constraints. It also provides a closed loop of implementation and maintenance. Limitations include a highly project-based product model, opaque pricing and evaluation paths, and limited information about self-service use, permission-based collaboration, and a general SaaS ecosystem. It is best suited to large metallurgy, oil and gas, chemical, and polymer companies, as well as plants with budgets for advanced control and a solid foundation of on-site data.
Access from mainland China cannot be determined from the available public information. Payment methods are also not disclosed, and procurement will likely require direct business discussions. For deployment in China, key factors to evaluate include network connectivity, interfaces with on-site systems, OPC compatibility, service responsiveness, and local compliance requirements. Comparable options include AspenTech, AVEVA, Honeywell, ABB, Siemens, Yokogawa, as well as local industrial automation and advanced control providers such as SUPCON and Hollysys.
