Project Objective:<\/strong> To help the client construct a gas plant that is designed to operate safely, efficiently, and effectively<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Client:<\/strong> Arran Energy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asset:<\/strong> Natural Gas Plant Producer<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location:<\/strong> Stanley liquids project in Papua New Guinea<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

The challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To determine what aspects of the design would impact the reliability, availability and maintainability of the equipment and processes on the plant, and how to mitigate these to help assure plant safety and productivity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why we were contracted<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To assure the goals of the study were achieved, Arran Energy outsourced the project to ABL\u2019s asset management specialists who were tasked with conducting a high-level qualitative assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This provided an independent review, identifying risks and recommendations for design improvements ahead of Detailed Design, purchase of long lead equipment and construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What we did<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Review basis of design, relevant data, and available information.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Analysis by modules in the form of block diagrams and process relationships.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Identification of raw risks, and initial mitigations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Probability and consequence analysis of raw risks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Evaluation of priorities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Provide recommendations for design improvements.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
