CALGARY, AB. Canada – ARMS Reliability has been engaged by a major Canadian energy company to help an offshore operation identify current maintenance gaps, develop optimized maintenance strategies for nearly 48,000 assets, and standardize strategies across like equipment.
“The company’s maintenance costs are higher than average for the region,” affirms Matt Hueste, ARMS Reliability Account Manager. “Therefore, they are looking to revamp their maintenance procedures and assess where they need to focus to keep producing efficiently, safely, and reliably.”
The energy leader chose ARMS Reliability based on their technical capabilities and proven experience completing maintenance builds and maintenance strategy optimization on new and existing projects in the oil and gas and petrochem industries.
“The maintenance strategy recommendations will be created following the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) process using ARMS Reliability’s Cordant™ Asset Strategy® solution,” explains Hueste. “Cordant™ Asset Strategy has capability to define criticality, materials and bills of materials (BoMs), and manages the development and deployment of generic maintenance strategy templates for asset classes and sub-classes. Using Cordant™ Asset Strategy for maintenance task development has been shown to be 3-4 times more efficient than traditional approaches whilst maintaining an ability to ensure operating context is considered in the mitigation of failure modes.”
The ARMS team will hand over risk and cost-optimized maintenance strategies directly into SAP ready for execution. This project will help the energy company meet their need to run safe, reliable and environmentally responsible operations in the most cost-effective manner.
Hueste concludes, “We’re proud to be partnering with yet another leading energy company and to be part of their asset-management journey.”
