Improving Machinery Reliability: Practical Machinery Management for Process Plants

10-06-2024 - 14-06-2024 3800 اسطنبول

 

Course Introduction:

 

The course is designed to bridge the gap between the rather theoretical subject of Reliability Engineering and day-to-day equipment maintenance practice by emphasizing the common goals of RE and Maintenance.

 

It will be shown how various indices allow reliability performance tracking but are of little use when it comes to the identification of reliability improvement strategies. By using practical, real world examples, it will be demonstrated that the application of these techniques will provide a basis for improved equipment management and reduced maintenance costs. Participants are encouraged to bring their failure statistics (motors, pumps, machinery components, etc.) for manual (plotting) or computerized analysis. Similarly, equipment replacement decisions based on RE principles will be examined together with practical operating and maintenance strategies leading to the improvement of plant reliability.

 

The course explores reliability assessment techniques, such as Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), of the equipment presently installed in the participants' plants. It will be shown how the results of these analyses can provide input into maintenance strategies and operating procedures and thus increase overall equipment availability. Through examples dealing with compression equipment, guidance is given on reliability assurance pertaining to new equipment purchases by means of design audits, reviews, and checklists.

 

Finally, generating and using equipment availability indices will be investigate and discussed.

 

 

Course Objectives:

 

Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:

  • Recognize the practical use of "Reliability Engineering" (RE) as it pertains to process plant equipment maintenance
  • Understand the importance of equipment failure and/or repair data collecting
  • Apply statistical techniques for the analysis of this data, enabling them to formulate maintenance and operating strategies designed to increase their plant equipment availability
  • Perform maintenance cost saving Failure Mode and Effect Analyses (FMEA) and understand the principles of Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)
  • Apply several techniques to improve equipment maintenance, operating, commissioning, installation and purchase
