Operations Readiness & Assurance

Petrolink Support provides assistance to field development, operations readiness and assurance for planned and ongoing projects.

We develop strategies, philosophies and plans for Preparation for Operations, Production Operations and Operations Support. Increased efficiency, reduced expenses and improved HSE&Q levels are the key drivers in our efforts to reach performance targets.

Operations strategies and philosophies
Master Plan and field development (FEED/PDO) preparation assistance
Operational Assurance (OA) and Ready for Operation (RFO) planning
Organisation analyses including resource management and recruitment
Work process and task analyses including operations procedures
Opex analyses to establish operations strategy and associated costs
Uncertainty and risk evaluation
Emergency and operational recovery planning

By combining our operations experience with our engineering capabilities we achieve cost/benefit tuned solutions for safe and high-performance operations.

Maintenance & Inspection Engineering

Our services are based on full recognition of client requirements, mandatory terms and best practices.

Solutions for improved operations regularity and reduced expenses through optimised maintenance and inspection programs.

We assist in complying with key performance and production targets, such as volume, schedule, regularity and HSE&Q requirements. This is achieved by paying attention to facilities from early project phase through development to start-up and continuously during operations. Strategies and basic terms need be established at project kick-off and during the course of development be converted to practical plans for field implementation and follow-up.

Overall maintenance and inspection philosophies
Maintenance and inspection strategies
Failure mode, Effect and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)
Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) analysis
Reliability, Availability & Maintainability (RAM) analysis
Solutions for Risk Based Inspection (RBI)
Cost analysis (LCC and Opex)
Maintenance programs presented as field-friendly work packages
Spare part stock for start-up and operations

Process Safety & Risk Assessment

Petrolink Support ensures that facilities and systems are designed and operated according to applicable safety and performance requirements for intended operations.

Management of safety and risk needs to be fully integrated with the overall management of organisations and facilities. The approach needs be compliant, rational and cost-effective and inviting innovative spirit for improved solutions.

Exposure to potential hazards needs to be managed so as to reduce the probability of losses through safety and risk oriented design, operating procedures and control measures. In addition, redundancy and shut-down systems need to be present to mitigate any undesired effects. Risk and safety issues need to be evaluated in a structured and calculated manner as part of an overall strategy.

Hazardous Areas Classification (HAC)
Barrier element design
Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRA)
Hazard & Operarability Analyses (HAZOP)
Hazard Identification Analyses (HAZID)
Crisis Intervention In Offshore Production (CRIOP) analysis
Technical audits

Our approach is supported by gap analysis through verification of design, operations and maintenance to follow-up and rectification of findings.

Process Technology

Our operational bias ensures high production rates with optimum regularity and throughput for any operational scenario. We use recognised methodologies and software tools in conducting our work.

Petrolink Support offers services extending from conceptual studies and field development to operational optimisation and support of planned and ongoing activities.

Our services have an operational bias and are built on our extensive operations experience from a variety of technical systems and application areas. We provide the core of services for process process and operations personnel, allowing experts to generate, verify and implement the design work for projects. We cover the complete range of activities from project inception and development through start-up and operations to tail-end production and abandonment:

Business case development
Concept and front-end studies
Processing and flow assurance studies
De-bottlenecking and production optimisation studies
Basic Engineering, Front End Engineering Design (FEED) and Detailed Design support
Design verification & technical integrity assessment
Pre-operational and operational support

Integrated Operations

Enhancement of operations performance by combining technical competence and field experience through system integration, information sharing and human collaboration.

We create solutions to master challenges and opportunities better by connecting people, organisations and technologies in a well structured manner. Thus, information is readily available across organisations and geographical sites for better decision making:

Operations and Collaboration Centres
Organisation Set-Up and Work Procedures
Operator, Contractor and Vendor Collaboration Models
Cross-site Collaboration Models
ICT Topology and Infrastructure

We improve execution of key tasks:
