Practical Shutdown and Turnaround Management
Details :
Planning and managing shutdowns, turnarounds and outages in
the process plant environment is a complex and demanding function. If
turnarounds are not properly planned, managed and controlled, companies run the
risks of serious budget overruns, costly schedule delays and negative impacts
on customers.
In this seminar, you will learn:
• How to
develop a practical shutdown strategy?
• Management
of all stages of the shutdown process
• Develop
the management plan, work plans, resource plans and budget
• How to
management related issues such as risk and safety
By the end of this course, delegates will be able
to:
- To
enhance the company’s turnaround management capabilities, and to ensure a
team approach in the planning and execution of plant shutdowns and
turnarounds
- Provide
a comprehensive understanding of effective turnaround management
techniques and implementation
- Create
awareness of planning methods and an integrated organisational approach in
the execution of successful turnarounds
- Develop
an action plan to improve their own shutdown management techniques
- Have a
much clearer understanding of their own and every other team members role
in ensuring a successful turnaround
The course would undoubtedly be of immense value and
interest to:
- Shutdown
or turnaround professionals and coordinators
- Planning/scheduling
and cost control staff
- Construction
superintendents and supervisors
