Driving equipment and production optimisation through advanced engineering maintenance strategies

Maintenance engineering has been known to add increased throughput, lower working capital requirements, increased labour productivity, improved safety, and lower costs; all measuring and contributing to bottom lines for organisations.

It is crucial that equipment is well maintained to avoid costly failures, planned and unplanned shutdowns. Engineering maintenance strategically approaches these areas of potential failure, applying innovative solutions in order to maintain equipment’s fitness for service.

IQPC is proud to announce the 2nd Annual Process Industry Engineering Maintenance Summit India 2012. The latest in IQPC’s maintenance events will bring together regional and international industry experts to discuss the pressing challenges and developments in maintenance and engineering technologies.

Key issues to be discussed at the 2nd Annual Process Industry Engineering Maintenance Summit India 2012 include:

  • Employing strategies to ensure effective and economical maintenance for plants and equipment
  • Outlining best-practices for planning effective shutdowns
  • Building expertise amongst professionals to grow maintenance into a top support function
  • Using the latest technologies to aid maintenance strategies across the process industry
  • Balancing production targets with maintenance cost and downtime

Testimonials from previous IQPC Summits

Making the most of what we have is becoming more and more relevant as significant new hydrocarbon discoveries are a thing of the past and improved well and reservoir management extends the life of existing facilities. For most mature E&P companies the key challenges are to improve uptime and assure integrity at the lowest possible lifecycle cost. Maintenance plays a key role in dealing with those challenges. Hearing from other companies about their individual maintenance challenges and how they deal with them will help move the maintenance game forward.
