The document discusses the implementation of reliability engineering at Merisol RSA. It aims to inform the reader about reliability engineering and discuss tools like RCM, RCA and MTBF that can help improve equipment reliability. Areas investigated for reliability at Merisol include plant availability, critical equipment, preventative maintenance, predictive maintenance, spare parts management and equipment history. Recommendations are provided for setting availability goals, identifying critical equipment, and moving from reactive to preventative/predictive maintenance. Improved availability, reduced maintenance costs and increased uptime are expected results from a well-rounded reliability program.
