Effectively managing the safety lifecycle requires teamwork between multiple disciplines, departments and companies, but it shouldn’t require multiple solutions. See how you can consolidate the entire safety lifecycle into a streamlined solution ensuring risk is reduced, instrumented systems are available and compliance requirements are met. The “cradle to grave” lifecycle approach that is enabled by the APM Safety work process provides visibility across the organization to what teams are doing, and how well their doing it.
In this third webinar in a series about APM, Stork, SOCAR Turkey and GE Digital share their insights on process safety best practices, from various perspectives: the process, the solution and the culture.
Energy Markets are at an inflection point: a flat global economy, pressure to grow revenue and profit, tighter regulations, and increased competition have significantly changed the way assets are operated. Internal inefficiencies, including lack of operationally relevant insight, still prevent companies from optimizing asset performance. Operators are challenged by a limited visibility into their assets’ data and often lack enhanced capabilities to quantitatively/qualitatively analyze the historical data and demonstrate value-added solutions.
In this second in a series of joint webinars on Asset Performance Management, GE Digital and Stork share the way they respond to the above challenges when it comes to Asset Reliability Management. They present a large scale case study practiced with a client active in the oil & gas industry and explain additional available solutions to the same questions.

Webinar decision-making - Part 3: KPI ManagementStork
Part 3 of the webinar Decision Making by Stork. In this third part we talk about KPI management:
Which KPI's are needed for the right interventions?
Making choices and making the right decisions is decisive for success, also in asset management. Postponing decisions or making incorrect decisions, for example due to complexity or lack of data, has a major impact on your team and your results. You too have to deal with this on a daily basis.
Timely making the right decisions is therefore the subject of a three-part webinar about decision-making in asset management.

A Keynote speech by Dr Domininc Cooper CFIOSH C.Psychol examining the 'true' success factors of Behavior-Based Safety from the 1970's to the present day.
Behavio-Based Safety is still evolving to the point where it is effective in all workplaces, all of the time. Many implementations have been successful, but many have failed or faded away over the years. What can we learn from the past and the present to optimize future BBS implementations for the good of all? This tour of BBS examines the evolution of BBS, implementation strategies, and remaining challenges. Issues to be addressed include (but are not limited to):
[1 Where BBS fits in an organizations Safety Culture
[2] Who owns BBS?
[3] The role of employees and managers
[4] BBS design Issues
[5] Integrating BBS into mainstream safety management systems
Implementation and application of a Process Safety Management System. This presentation will focus on the history, purpose and scope of a Process Safety Management (PSM) system. Topics covered include:
-Distinctions between personnel and process safety
-Framework and elements of PSM
-Importance of Safety Culture in the implementation and application of a PSM system
-Relevance and importance of regular audits and assessments of PSM systems
Optimize Safety and Profitability by Use of the ISO 14224 Standard and Big Da...Tony Ciliberti PE
This paper shows how the ISO 14224 standard, enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, and Big Data Analytics can be used to optimize safety and profitability in oil and gas, renewable energy, and in other asset-intensive industries. It also presents a logical approach for prioritizing application of digital capabilities for assets (e.g. equipment, systems and installations).
ISO 14224 promulgates a standard data structure for collection and exchange of reliability and maintenance data for equipment. This data structure also can be used effectively to document failure scenarios for operating facilities. When equipment reliability and maintenance (RM) data and failure scenarios are recorded as relational data in ERP software, they can be combined with other enterprise data and digital field data to give a real-time status for each risk control. Individual scenario risk can then be easily aggregated to present real-time risk status for global operations or any subset thereof. This helps companies set priorities based on their bottom-line: HSE, production throughput, and profitability.
Operating and producing companies have already completed risk assessments as part of operational preparedness/readiness for new facilities, in which equipment and system failure scenarios are included in various ways. These risk datasets typically require reformatting to make them relational, which is done by explicitly identifying equipment and risk control measures by their unique identifiers and by defining evaluation criteria for risk control measures. ERP data need to be made object-specific, e.g. inspection results and malfunction data should be recorded explicitly by technical tag. Reliability and Maintenance data quality management practices are a key consideration.
Additional topics pertaining to compliant use of ISO 14224 standards for risk management include its roles in (1) technology development and technology qualification, (2) improving design and condition monitoring for equipment by use of operational and failure data, with an example given for electric submersible pump (ESP) systems, and (3) improving equipment RM data quality and thus enabling better risk awareness and data-driven decision-making.
This paper shows how the international standard ISO 14224 can be applied in conjunction with digital technology and enterprise software to give oil and gas companies a global real real-time view of operational risk and a risk-based approach to optimizing safety and profitability.

In the process of software development, traceability is a key success factor as it ensures maintaining control over the development of products. With more and more complex devices that have software solutions integrated in them, ensuring control over the development process requires transparency and consistency. Spanning through the whole SDLC from requirements definition all the way to releasing the product, traceability ensures transparency and consistency across all artifacts.
codeBeamer's traceability features let you track all artifacts across the entire software development lifecycle, link them to the source code, and visualize dependencies across interrelated artifacts. The Traceability Browser and Matrix help identify, filter and visualize these dependencies between items across projects. All changes of artifacts can also be tracked, and versioning and baselining is available through version control systems (Git, Mercurial, SVN). codeBeamer lets you manage these items and relations across entities, projects, documents and Wikis, since all the data is based in a single repository.

As test managers, we face challenging situations that require us to draw on our past experiences, principles, and good practices in order to have any chance at all for success. Michael Wasielczyk faced this challenge immediately after joining T. Rowe Price. He started his new job, responsible for managing the testing effort on a mission-critical data warehouse, and he had no experience managing a data warehouse testing effort. In addition, Michael found there were no formal practices for software development or testing. In fact, the establishment of an independent test team was a foreign concept to the corporate culture. A team of on-shore and off-shore testers arrived at the same time as Michael. Development was underway. A delivery date for the project had been communicated and could not be missed. So, how did he possibly succeed? Michael describes the challenges he faced over the following 205 days, the guiding principles he used, and the key decisions he made along the way. He shares the value of management support, tailoring best practices to the situation at hand, and understanding what battles are worth fighting for. Join Michael to learn how you can better prepare yourself when faced with a similar situation.

AFITC 2018 - Using Process Maturity and Agile to Strengthen Cyber SecurityDjindo Lee
The premise of this innovative development effort is that the merging of process maturity (>CMMI 3) and agile DevSecOps can contribute to cyber hardness/resiliency without sacrificing responsiveness, capability and quality. The target of this case study was a federal agency that required increased feature delivery rates to better meet the demand for system updates (to include existing cyber threats), low production defect density and vulnerability forecasting/minimization. Using Discrete Event Simulation (DES) to model the entire Agile process provided a holistic approach to capturing and depicting the sprint lifecycle. The model accounted for the lifecycle including development of user stories, design, development and test within individual sprints. The payoff was a twenty percent increase in user stories per release than originally planned and a production defect density of only three percent. This approach may be applied to improve the security posture of the Air Force systems as they are being built.
By modeling subsea systems, including their control systems, and using a risk monitor software for simulating operations and visualizing results, the industry is able to define the real-time operational reliability level of the system, allowing us to include the possibility for faulty components into the model.
Application Risk Prioritization - Overview - Secure360 2015 - Part 1 of 2NetSPI
App Security? There’s a metric for that! (Part 1 of 2)
Over the past year, NetSPI has been working on a new approach to manage and measure application security. By combining OWASP’s Software Assurance Maturity Model, traditional risk assessment methodologies, and experience developing security metrics, NetSPI developed a methodology that may be used to help organizations improve the way they manage and prioritize their application security initiatives. Once fully developed, this approach will be donated to OWASP either as an add-on to the existing SAMM project or as a new project intended to improve application security management.
In this presentation, NetSPI provides a detailed walk-through of the overall methodology as well as OWASP’s SAMM project. We provide examples of the types of metrics and executive dashboards that can be generated by using this approach to managing application security and help highlight various ways this information can be used to further improve the overall maturity of application security programs.
Be sure to check out Part 2 of this presentation for a more "Hands On" approach.

Stork webinar | Voordelen van een deaerator retrofitStork
Veel bedrijven hebben tray-type ontgassers in bedrijf en weten niet dat de relatief eenvoudige ombouw naar spray-type ontgassers tot enorme besparingen kan leiden!
Het ombouwen van een tray-type naar een spray-type ontgasser resulteert in betere prestaties, lagere TCO (geen onderhoudsvereisten) en verbeterde duurzaamheid. Het leidt tot een lager energieverbruik, minder stoomverlies en de overbodigheid van zuurstofafvangers, wat milieuvervuiling tegen gaat. Dit ombouwproces is minder ingewikkeld en heeft een kortere terugverdientijd dan je zou denken.
In dit webinar bespreken Joyce Logman en Alex Heino de voordelen van de ontgasser ombouw op de bovengenoemde onderdelen. Zij leggen uit welk effect de overstap van tray-type naar spray-type heeft op duurzaamheid en potentiële kostenbesparingen. Daarnaast wordt er besproken hoe een retrofit er grofweg uitziet, van engineering tot inbedrijfstelling.
In December 2023 we started a series of three webinars about the theme "asset management enabling technologies". In these webinars, we discuss the different aspects of connectivity and the enabling technologies, which in our opinion is crucial for the successful operation of your assets.
In this third webinar, Johan Ferket and Pieter Wielemaker will focus on three important items in the Asset Performance Management (APM) journey: transformational planning, tool and software evaluation and performance tracking.
They will provide answer to the questions:
- What are the main stage gates in the APM Roadmap?
- Which tooling and software are best suited for your situation: how to evaluate and choose?
- How to close the loop: APM performance tracking?
Stork Webinar | Planning a successful APM journey - 6 March 2024Stork
In December 2023 we started a series of three webinars about the theme "enabling technologies". In these webinars, we'll discuss the different aspects of connectivity and its enabling technologies, which in our opinion is crucial for successful future operations.
In this second webinar we will explain the role of planning in a successful industrial digitization journey: Asset Performance Management (APM). We'll provide answers to the questions:
• What is the value of an APM roadmap?
• How to develop an APM roadmap?
• Who to involve and connect in roadmap construction: CIO, Inspection Management, Reliability Management, Process Safety, Production/Operations
• How to define your Asset Management objectives, prioritize and translate them into a Business case for an APM Implementation?
This webinar on connectivity has the topic: 'Asset Management Enabling Technologies'. During this webinar, Johan Ferket and Pieter Wielemaker discuss the connectivity between processes, people and technology. They answer the questions:
- What are EAM, APM and AIP and how do they relate to each other?
- How can these technologies facilitate people and processes?
- What are the best practices to connect the above?
- Why only good implementation ensures the right connectivity between people, processes and technology.
In dit webinar gaan we in op business ecosystemen: netwerken van mensen en organisaties met een gemeenschappelijk doel, zoals het faciliteren van de energietransitie. Bijvoorbeeld het ecosysteem voor de ontwikkeling van de waardeketen rondom waterstof. Met ecosystemen kun je producten en services van partners tot een unieke overkoepelende (ecosysteem) waardepropositie combineren. Hoe sterker het ecosysteem, hoe groter de mogelijke waarde en concurrentievoordeel.
In dit webinar geven Johan Ferket en Niels Meerdink antwoord op de vragen:
• Wat is een business ecosteem?
• Wat zijn de voordelen van werken met ecosystemen?
• Wat zijn uitdagingen en valkuilen?
• Welke succesvolle voorbeelden zijn er?
Na dit webinar weet je wat de waarde kan zijn van business ecosystemen in bijvoorbeeld de energietransitie.
Improving Asset Management performance using Balanced Scorecards
Managing the performance of an asset-intensive organization is a strategic activity. The crucial aspect of performance management is the alignment of the strategies at the corporate level with those at the functional/operational level. We also include asset management at this functional level. The purpose of using Balanced ScoreCards (BSC) is to effectively manage the mission, vision, purpose, goals and objectives within an organization.
In this webinar, Stork AMT provides an outline of how the effective use of Balanced Scorecards can help organizations align their asset management strategy with the organizational strategy and how the BSC can help translate asset management objectives into tangible , recognizable actions, where you maintain a balance between costs, risks and performance.
In dit derde webinar in deze serie over waterstof staan we stil bij de consequenties van de introductie van waterstof voor jou als asset manager en voor jouw organisatie.
Bram Hes en Martijn Holt gaan in dit webinar onder meer in op de volgende vragen:
- Wat zijn de voornaamste uitdagingen bij de introductie van waterstof, afhankelijk van de positie in de waardeketen?
- Wat is het tijdspad en wanneer moet je beginnen?
- Hoe bereid je je voor op de introductie van waterstof? Waar moet je aan denken?
- Hoe ziet een roadmap voor jouw type organisatie eruit?
In dit tweede webinar in een serie van drie over waterstof staan we stil bij competenties die noodzakelijk zijn om de waterstof-(r)evolutie waar te kunnen maken. Willem Hazenberg geeft in dit webinar onder meer antwoord op de volgende vragen:
- Wat is het effect van de groeiende waterstofindustrie op de werkgelegenheid?
- Welke functies zijn er nodig en momenteel beschikbaar in de waterstofindustrie en -netwerken?
- Wat zijn de vereisten voor deze functies qua opleidingsniveau?
- Wat zijn de essentiële basiskennis, vaardigheden en specifieke competenties en hoe kunnen deze het meest effectief worden aangeleerd?
- Tot welke diepte moet men kennis hebben over waterstoftechnologie om een effectieve bijdrage aan de industrie te kunnen leveren?
De laatste ontwikkelingen in de waterstofmarkt.Stork
De introductie van nieuwe energievormen leidt vrijwel altijd tot kip-ei discussies ten aanzien van vraag, aanbod, infrastructuur en benodigde competenties. Dit was en is het geval bij elektrisch rijden, en ook nu bij waterstof. Wat betekent dit voor u als asset owner of asset manager? Dit is een van de vragen die aan bod komen in onze serie webinars over waterstof.
In dit eerste webinar van de serie staan we stil bij de laatste stand van zaken rondom de waterstof initiatieven in de Benelux.
Grip krijgen op ongewenste emissies bij flensverbindingen.
Bij bijna 5% van de installatiecomponenten komen immers ongewenste emissies vrij. Als die emissies vluchtige koolwaterstoffen zijn, dan leveren ze, naast potentieel onveilige situaties, hoogstwaarschijnlijk ook schade op voor het milieu.
In dit webinar bespreken experts Sebastiaan Niessen en Quinten Hoven methoden en technieken die je kunnen helpen om onbedoelde lekkages bij flenzen te voorkomen en, wanneer er lekkage optreedt, deze zo snel mogelijk te ontdekken en te verhelpen. Dit alles met het doel om, met een structurele aanpak, ongewenste verliezen, onveilige situaties en milieuschade te voorkomen.
Webinar | Digitale transformatie in the praktijk: de pompskidStork
Pompskid: de praktijk van het gebruik van data voor inzicht in de prestaties van assets.
Dit derde webinar in een serie van drie over digitale transformatie kent een heel praktisch karakter. Tijdens de presentatie laten we in samenwerking met IBM zien wat er mogelijk is op het gebied van gebruik van data voor prestatieverbetering van assets.
In samenwerking met Corevision, ABB en IBM heeft Stork heeft een pompopstelling gebouwd. Op deze pompskid zijn slimme sensoren beschikbaar om innovaties te testen. Er wordt gebruik gemaakt van software van IBM om de gegevens te analyseren en te visualiseren en van hardware van CoreVision om gegevens naar het IBM-platform in bruikbaar formaat te sturen.
Ludolf Pijpker toont de mogelijkheden van dit platform met de pompskid. Hiernaast geeft hij een demo van een Holo-lens applicatie. Vervolgens licht Ronald Teijken een aantal use cases toe over Maximo Visual Inspection (MVI) aan de hand van de pompskid. Ook demonstreert hij hoe MVI met gebruik van Artificial Intelligence (AI) afwijkingen kan ontdekken en dus visuele inspecties kan vervangen.
Er zijn veel verschillende definities en interpretaties van een Digital Twin - een digitale tweeling - dus het kan zijn dat niet iedereen hetzelfde beeld heeft over wat het is, waar het voor wordt gebruikt, wat er mee mogelijk is en hoe het mogelijk voor jou werkt.
In dit Webinar maak je kennis met het begrip Digital Twin en de toegevoegde waarde ervan, met name in de Operate & Maintain fase van een levenscyclus van een Asset. We geven antwoord op vragen zoals:
- welke elementen zitten er in de Digital Twin
- wat is er op de markt
- welke voorbeelden van implementaties zijn er
- wat de link is met Industrie 4.0
- wat is de toegevoegde waarde.
Stork Webinar | Digital Transformation AssessmentStork
In dit webinar wordt aan de hand van voorbeelden uit de praktijk uitgelegd hoe een assessment kan helpen jouw positie op ladder van digitalisering binnen asset management te bepalen, om doelstellingen vast te leggen om tot een pragmatische aanpak te komen en hoe de gaten te overbruggen tussen doelstelling en praktijk met acties die reëel, praktisch en geprioriteerd zijn.
In this webinar, Alex Heino discusses the function of the deaerator and the different types of deaerators with their characteristics.
He explains the effect switching from tray type to spray type has on performance, sustainability and potential cost savings.
He also provides guidance on your business case for converting from a tray to a spray type deaerator.
Het derde en laatste webinar over in deze serie over decarbonisering staat in het teken van de financiën: budget en Return-on-Investment. Principal consultant Joris Grimbergen bespreekt hoe u bepaalt welke investeringen het meeste effect hebben op uw CO2-uitstoot en in welke mate zij ook bijdragen aan uw andere businessdrivers.
Stork webinar | Decarbonisering: aanpak en toolingStork
n dit tweede van drie webinars over decarbonisering van de industrie kijken we vanuit het Asset Management perspectief naar een aanpak en tooling die van pas komen bij decarbonisering.
Bram Hes en Bart Desmet, consultants bij Stork Asset Management Technology, schetsen de aanpak voor 'decarbonisering masterplanning' en verschillende tools die je in het Asset management proces rondom decarbonisering kunt gebruiken.
In dit eerste van drie webinars over decarbonisering van de industrie kijken we vanuit het Asset Management perspectief naar de ontwikkelingen die de energietransitie en circulaire economie met zich meebrengen. Bram Hes en Jack Doomernik, consultants bij Stork Asset Management Technology, schetsen de noodzaak en urgentie en hoe hiermee kan worden omgegaan.
De aanpassingen aan uw installaties zijn veelal ingrijpend. Een goed inzicht in de urgentie is noodzakelijk om draagvlak te creëren in uw organisatie en alle initiatieven vanuit verschillende afdelingen op één lijn kunnen te krijgen.
Future-proof industrial assets with circular strategiesStork
Bijna de helft van de koolstof emissies is product gerelateerd en de beschikbaarheid van grondstoffen wordt steeds kritischer. Op weg naar een duurzame samenleving is het onvermijdelijk om de lineaire economie van “take-make-dispose” te doorbreken door de toepassing van circulaire strategieën. Maar wat betekent dit voor de industrie, en welke bijdrage kan Asset Management hieraan leveren?
In dit webinar schetsen Jack Doomernik en Erika Kuo mogelijke rollen die Asset Management kan spelen in circulariteit. Zij presenteren een aanpak met vier oplossingsrichtingen waarmee u uw uitdagingen in circulariteit te lijf kunt gaan
Webinar | Omgaan snel met veranderende wetgeving in duurzaamheid.pptxStork
De ontwikkeling van normen en wetgeving met betrekking tot duurzaamheid gaat razendsnel. Om als bedrijf compliant te zijn en te blijven is dan ook een flinke uitdaging. In dit webinar schetsen Bart Desmet en Geert-Henk Wijnants, principal consultants bij Stork Asset management Technology, een overzicht van wat er op Europees niveau op ons af komt. Ook gaan zij in op een gestructureerde aanpak waarmee bedrijven kunnen werken aan hun compliancy en hoe men ook in de toekomst de license to operate zeker kan stellen.
Hoe lossen we het tekort aan reliability & maintenance engineers op?Stork
De industrie kampt met een structureel tekort aan goed geschoold technisch personeel. Dit probleem verergert als gevolg van de grote groep technici die de komende jaren met pensioen gaat. In het onderhoud manifesteert dit zich ook in de beschikbaarheid van Maintenance en Reliability engineers. Cruciale functies voor gedegen onderhouds- en asset management. Dit tekort overstijgt markten en sectoren en manifesteert zich zowel bij asset owners en asset managers als bij consultancy dienstverleners en onderhoudsservice bedrijven.
In dit interactieve webinar gaan we nader in op deze problematiek en op mogelijke oplossingen, waaronder het concept van de een Stork- RE/ME academie. Dit nieuwe concept willen we met de webinar deelnemers bespreken en valideren.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck

Identify all known equipment risks for their critical
production assets mechanisms by:
• Engage multiple departments in process safety
discussions, training and facilitation.
• Data gathering of equipment datasheets, process
P&ID, PFD, Equipment failure data, shift books,
maintenance and operation inputs.
• Link Process Safety Analysis, causes and safeguards
with SAP Common equipment database so the risk
analyses are always linked to equipment records.
• Align results with maintenance and reliability

DETERMINE SAFETY INTEGRITY LEVEL
• Should we use a qualitative or quantitative risk
analysis? We identified high risk scenarios from the
HAZOP analysis and then applied the LOPA methodology
to further quantify the risk and provided risk reduction
needed to close the risk gap.
• Utilizing LOPA tool by GE, it was possible to move from
HAZOP to LOPA without the need to re-do the analysis.
• Any HAZOP or LOPA recommendations? Following
HAZOP and LOPA studies, multiple redesign and loop
verifications recommendations came. These are
sometimes related to and MOC which needs an
engineering and design change, or sometimes a cronical
problem wihch can be a trigger for and RCA, or a simple
data update.

He explains the various roles in this process and the benefits of an integrated approach for APM solutions. As a prelude to best practices he describes the concepts behind the application examples.
Luciano Narcisi will guide you through two examples of successful APM implementation focused on mechanical integrity. At SOCAR in Turkey, Stork and GE Digital channeled a journey that enabled SOCAR to extend the mandatory inspections period by adjusting government inspection requirements through RBI. At Freeport LNG, Stork was selected to build the foundations for a Mechanical Integrity System. Together with GE Digital, we helped the client maintain the asset's integrity and ensure operational safety while extending government requirements for inspection intervals.
Insight into changing German legislation on inspection requirements.....
We have field proven practices for defining adding value asset strategies and we implement the strategy in your EAM maintenance management module. We support the execution of maintenance and inspection with knowledge about the behavior of equipment. And we support you with the evergreening process to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies. The GED APM software has all the functionalities in it to make these steps.
We use a basic workflow model called Asset Reliability & Integrity model which is used as a basis for training of APM building blocks. The model is based on the international standard NEN-EN16991-2018 Risk-base inspection framework.
There are two PDCA loops. Outer loop is designed to define and implement effective asset strategies which reduce the risk to the acceptable level. The innerloop is to define and evaluate efficient maintenance tasks to assure on time execution and first time right.
This is a bit more of a granular view of the GE Digital Continuous Improvement framework and how the entire suite of software holistically works together. This gives you an idea of all the different functions and work processes the Asset Performance Management solution can enable.
For today's discussion we will be focused on the maroon portions of this visualization specific to APM Strategy and APM Reliability
In subsequent seminars we will cover additional work processes and functions and how GE Digital’s solutions and stork best practices can be leveraged in your organization.
Today we will take you through several case studies that discuss how the GE Digital APM Strategy and Reliability modules and Stork best practices enable organizations to generate and execute optimized risk mitigating maintenance & inspection tasks, while streamlining auditability and compliance governance.
Today Keyvan and Yerem will discuss two appl
The process safety lifecycle can be divided into three phases with activities.
The IEC 61511 standard first depicts an Analysis phase.
In this slide shown by the green part with a “risk assessment”, “the allocation of safety functions to protection layers” and the “safety requirements specification”.
The Second phase, let’s call it the design phase, the yellow part in this slide, shows the activities where the safety loop is first “designed” and later on in the process is “installed and commissioned”.
In the operational phase maintenance tasks are executed and information of the performance must be gathered.
During operation data on proof test results, equipment failures and process excursions must be gathered.
When striving for an optimum level of process safety, applicable for your situation, some activities from the earlier phases need to be revisited.
For example lets take the frequency of events, a number you would use during the HAZOP.
If you experience a different number for frequency of events during operations.
Then the next time you revisit the HAZOP you will need to use your own statistics.
The HAZOP then represents the actual situation, based on your statistics.
Or in your case of failure numbers for certain instruments: If you find that your equipment failure numbers are different (better of worse) then the numbers you used before need to be adjusted. In your situation you should assimilate your actual operational statistics.
So although the process lifecycle is depicted as a flowchart with a beginning and an end it really should be a continuous process; More like a circle of activities. Activities like HAZOP, LOPA and SIL calculations should be updated when the necessity is there. With the renewed result your maintenance activities should adapt. Also de-bottle necking, revamping, projects or simple changes should initiate the process safety lifecycle.
For a modern green field situations the focus on process safety will be present. The activities for the relative short first two phases of the lifecycle are executed and documented very well. The documentation is stored mostly in a digital manner and is made available to those who need to have access. This makes it easy to perform your planned maintenance during the longer third phase according. Together with data from the operational phase, closing the loop on these installations takes less effort compared to Brown field installations.
For the Socar Turkey the project team was confronted with both situations. At the stat of our APM project the new oil refinery was installed and almost ready to go into operations. The petrochemical installations were more mature and experienced already decades of operational lifetime. The approach on process safety activities for the APM project for the Green field parts of the installation was different then for the Brownfield part.
For the new installation a HAZOP was already done, but there was no operational data present. The LOPA was revisited and existing SIL loops calculations were available. The maintenance activities needed to be defined and planned and communicated with the maintenance organization merged with all the other APM defined activities.
The mature installation part however has been commissioned before the safety standard (IEC 61511) was released. The HAZOP needed revisiting and the exact risk reduction for the layers of protection was not updated with operational data. The instrumented safety functions were in place and were being tested according to planning. But the planning was not reviewed recently. Maintenance activities on safety loops were assigned to certain departments but there was no overall planning of safety related activities. Documentation was present but not always in a digital format.
STORK advised to revisit the process safety activities according to the standard and process all activities with GE APM. The plan fro the petro chemical part was to start with a Re-HAZOP and follow the process safety activities for one unit. In such a way of work the organization would gain knowledge and experience on the installation and the process safety standard, while working on the improvements. In the continuous operational phase, data would be gathered and analyzed and the loop could be closed. Following this way of work STORK support would decrease until the activities could be handled without any support.
For all the activities a training was hosted before execution. As part of the overall APM project we knew we would have access to the GE APM so all data was documented in the system from the start. Some challenges we came across are:
The operational data was stored in several location in different formats.
Instrumented functions were in place but there was not a clear overview on the actual performance of any of the safety layers.
Of course there is a maintenance plan in which tasks are assigned to perform the necessary proof testing. But it is unclear if any adjustment is needed.
The project at Socar Turkey with GE meridium and STORK was a unique project because it was a mix of Greenfield and Brownfield installations. Also the practical adoption of process safety activities within the APM approach was unique. The process safety integration really became a group effort realized by mutual support between the departments.
With the execution of the APM project the focus was not only on the maintenance strategy and tasks, but it provided the opportunity to focus on getting process safety to a higher standard.
The level of process safety will improve over time with the growing availability of the operational data and the continuation of the process safety activities.
During the project, the implementation of the GE APM system provided support because the system more or less forces you to execute the process safety activities.
The HAZOP was executed and all results were documented in the system.
For those scenario’s applicable the LOPA reviewed if the present risk reduction was sufficient. Otherwise the required SIL was defined.
For the existing instrumented safety loops, the SIL calculation have been executed.
Define Proof Test and/or Calibration Strategy maintenance activities were defined and planned.
Recommendations, items which need additional attention to improve, have been made.
Were before the project the several departments executed their own assigned tasks and data was generated at multiple locations in different formats.
Now the information is stored within the APM tool automatically processed and easy accessible.
We experienced that by involving several engineers and technicians during the process the level of awareness has risen. Now common knowledge is that improving the level of process safety is a combined effort.
But better is to hear how the SOCAR Turkey has experienced the project, so I will hand over to Ömer
Where do you record your failure data of SIL loops? / How do you track the HAZOP and LOPA recommendations?
-CMMS (SAP, Maximo, etc)
-Excel worksheets
-Soft Copy (Shiftbooks, reports..)
-Software
-Not recorded
Do you have a Functional Safety Management plan?
-Yes, and up-to-date
-Yes, but needs to be revised
-No.
-Not sure what it is.
The two examples I just described are clear business cases for the client and demonstrate the value added by an Asset Performance Management System implementation, specifically related to Mechanical Integrity.
On the other hand, we need to be clear that RBI is not a tool designed to extend inspection intervals, but a methodology that aims to design value added inspection strategies on critical equipment, and appropriate scope for less critical ones.
