Maintenance Excellence Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia

Course details

This 5-day in depth course will give perspective on how to view maintenance as a business proposition. We directly relate maintenance activity to increased production, allowing everybody to understand the business case and benefits. We prove a dollar spent on maintenance has more return than a dollar spent on a Greenfield project.

What's Special About This Course?

This course is run by Howard Thomas, a highly accredited and professional chemical engineer who has worked on hydrocarbon installations globally and delivered multi-million dollar competency programs for the new LNG assets in Australia under the Clough AMEC banner. As well as designing the programs, Howard also delivered the foundational training from physics and chemistry to full scale LNG optimization. He is widely recognized in his field, and being pursued by many energy companies. You will have the chance to not only learn the fundamentals of practical process safety but have a chance to speak and network!

Also, remember that this course is operated by WorleyParsons, a key and widely recognized player in the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC).

Course Overview

Most companies consider maintenance as an expense or at worst a necessary evil. This course directly relates maintenance activity to increased production, allowing management to understand the business case and benefits, operations to understand why they should release the equipment and maintenance to be able to do their job effectively. Most importantly attendees will be able to quantify the return on carrying out a maintenance activity. This will prove whether the activity is worthwhile or not.

Since too many companies present Reliability Centered Maintenance as the answer to all the world's ills, attendees will become familiar with the reliability toolkit as no one tool is suitable for all purposes. There will be many maintenance reliability tools in the toolkit discussed in the course. By understanding the right tools, for the right job and the commercial benefits of that job, maintenance activity can be optimized.
