Systems and methods include a computer-implemented method for intermediate crude oil distillation product estimates. Field data for distillation column feed streams and associated processes of a crude distillation unit of an oil refinery are received. Maintenance history events and estimates per event of each distillation column are received. Mass and energy balance around each distillation column are performed. Reconciled data and thermodynamic properties for each distillation column are determined. Key performance indicators (KPIs) for each distillation column are determined. A decision support model modeling activity-based information for the oil refinery is executed using the KPIs. Information regarding operation of the oil refinery at a current performance level is determined. Proactive and reactive data for distillation column estimate performance of each of the distillation columns are determined. The proactive/reactive data and KPIs for distillation column estimate performance of the distillation columns are provided for display in a user interface.
