Preventative maintenance to avoid production equipment failures

Posted by Grand Lau on Feb 3, 2021 12:45:00 PM

 

 

Equipment failures are expected but can be avoided with a comprehensive preventive maintenance program. Preventive maintenance is simply planned maintenance that prolongs the lifespan of company assets.

An effective maintenance program needs to have three elements; it must be efficient, performed regularly, and reduce or minimize equipment failures. Consistent reminders and reliable systems help make preventative maintenance program manageable and effective.

How to easily keep track of assets

Posted by Community Contributor on Jun 25, 2020 11:58:00 AM

 

We tend to lose a lot of things around the house like the TV remote, keys, or phone making us add more stress to our lives as we tend to frantically search for these lost items. Fortunately, we live in an era when automation exists, and you can get key finders to locate items. These detectors can be easily attached to things such as keys, bags, wallets, or even your pet, allowing you to quickly find your lost item, saving you time and stress from searching for them. It's as easy as clicking a button and you know where they are.

For the oil and gas industry, tracking the location of assets can also be a challenge. Using Emerson's Zedi Roughneck, a fixed asset management software solution, allows you to track equipment like compressors for example. When a compressor is not used, it is sometimes moved to be utilized at a different site. In my experience, the only person who would have known about this relocation would be the area foreman.

Teamwork to assess and reduce risk

What kind of risk taker were you as a kid? Were you the one who built a rickety ramp out of plywood,Asset Management software for oil and gas production braced it up with some loose bricks you found in the yard and wheeled your bike bravely up to the top?

Hey, everybody, watch this!

At the top, you’re surveying the scene and doing a sort of primitive risk management—am I gonna have an exhilarating ride down this ramp, then shoot up toward the stars? Or will I fall off halfway down and smash every bone in my body?

Zedi Roughneck™ helps you track stuff

Posted by Grand Lau on Jan 11, 2018 2:30:00 PM

 

Have you seen the dashboards on today’s cars? The information they give you is amazing—you can almost get where you’re going by watching the dashboard alone.

The idea, of course, is to consolidate information you need in order to stay safe; what’s behind you, beside you and in front of you and when they get too close.

Zedi’s Roughneck™ software is a lot like that. It tells you the location of equipment like compressors, pumpjacks and other onsite equipment, along with pipeline inventory, preventative maintenance programs and more, so that’s what’s around you. It also lets you track moves of that equipment so your information stays current.

Preventative Maintenance: Forgotten Element of Efficiency

Posted by Community User on May 26, 2012 12:50:00 AM

The savings from properly maintaining assets like compressors can make the difference of whether an operation is profitable or not.

 

When it comes to achieving optimal production, it's common to focus your attention on the stuff coming out of the ground, and how to achieve every efficiency around the extraction side of your business. While production optimization at the wellhead is a key component to operational efficiency, it's easy to forget the role preventative maintenance plays toward achieving the same goal. If you're not regularly and properly maintaining the equipment you rely on throughout your operation, your overall expenses can overwhelm the profitability of a well or your operation.
