Infor EAM offers a proven and cost-effective system for petrochemical facilities to manage assets to increase efficiency, reduce downtime, and increase compliance with industry regulations and safety rules.
The use of Infor EAM in petrochemical plants will provide the following benefits;
• Reducing operation, stock and material costs
• Ensuring the protection of fixed assets
• Compliance and traceability with sectoral regulations
• Management of security rules and procedures
• Increasing system reliability and minimizing losses
Some applications of Infor EAM specific to the petrochemical sector are as follows;
Asset Life Analysis: After examining the values of the fixtures such as reliability, maintenance costs and energy costs, investment planning is made for equipment that meets the system criteria.
Equipment for which investment planning requests are made are included in the purchasing plans after the necessary approvals.
Valve and Asset Tagging and Verification: While hundreds of thousands of equipment, valves and control operations in the field are of critical importance in the field, tagging, tracking and knowing their required positions are difficult processes to follow. With Infor EAM mobile solutions and equipment configuration capabilities, it is possible to define valves and critical controls, to keep configuration information and logs, to verify that the valve or control related to the work to be performed is correct with the help of RFID tag controls, and to log and monitor the process.
Mobile Solutions and Approval Systems: With the mobile solutions used in the field, many functions such as valve opening and closing follow-ups, work order management and approval activities, measurement and control orders, configuration controls and shift log books can be tracked.
Maintenance Reliability Analysis (Maintenance Rel.): International reliability analysis of the maintenance system can be made with maintenance reliability analysis.
Shift Operations Management: The shift management system developed for the solution of shift operations can be used in the following situations:
• Who should be the least number of people in which positions in which shifts at various times,
• Who can be planned for the next days at the facility,
• Whichever personnel is selected creates the least overtime cost
Asset Hierarchy: For companies that carry out petrochemical processes, the actual cost of the assets can be followed by creating a hierarchy on the basis of system and position.
Warehouse Management: With real-time warehouse management, inventory and material costs are reduced by increasing control and efficiency over purchasing.
Maintenance Management and Scheduling: By reducing overtime and spare time, efficient use of maintenance workforce and efficient planning of maintenance activities are ensured.
Inspection Management: The planning and control of inspection routes and inspection points are provided.
Compliance with Safety Rules and Sectoral Regulations: With Infor EAM, all compliances are defined on business plans, equipment and locations, and coordination is established between operation and maintenance teams in an electronic environment.
The right people are assigned to the jobs, and since the established workflows are insurmountable, possible accidents that may occur in the field are prevented. In addition, security measures come out of the initiative of individuals.
Warranty Management: Users are ensured to follow up the warranties of assets and process their warranty claims. In this way, it is possible to benefit from the warranty to the maximum extent.
Asset Analysis: Manufacturers are provided with continuous access to detailed analysis such as asset failures, asset costs, maintenance team performance.
Budget Management: It automates the budget planning of maintenance operations, the determination and recording of actual expenditures, control and analysis. In this way, an effective maintenance operation budget management is provided.
Energy Efficiency Management: Continuous data is collected from energy monitoring units, especially in companies with high energy costs in Petrochemicals, and these data are reported in international standards (Co2 reports, GAS indexes, etc.).
Infor EAM ASE offers a management system that evaluates this data and achieves results such as automatic work orders, alarms, and equipment replacement.
