🔧 Planning a Tank Shutdown: Key Activities to Ensure Success 🔧 Successfully executing a tank shutdown involves meticulous planning and coordination. Here are the main activities involved: Planning and Preparation: Define objectives, assemble a shutdown team, and develop a detailed work plan. Risk Assessment and Safety Planning: Identify potential hazards and implement risk mitigation strategies. Permits and Approvals: Secure necessary permits and internal approvals. Pre-Shutdown Activities: Ensure all materials, tools, and contractors are ready and the site is prepared. Tank Emptying and Cleaning: Safely remove residual material and clean the tank thoroughly. Inspection and Testing: Perform structural inspections, NDT, and leak tests. Maintenance and Repairs: Conduct routine maintenance, repairs, and upgrades. Final Inspection and Documentation: Conduct quality control inspections and document all activities. Restart Preparation: Perform system checks, refill the tank, and conduct commissioning procedures. Post-Shutdown Review: Monitor performance, review lessons learned, and prepare a detailed report. By following these structured steps, you can ensure a safe, efficient, and successful tank shutdown. 🛠️💼 #TankShutdown #Maintenance #Construction #ProjectManagement #SafetyFirst #IndustrialMaintenance

Hello 🙋♂️ ...! Let's talk about Precomm-Comm activities. Before a plant or facility is handed over for normal operation, it should be inspected, checked, cleaned, flushed, verified and tested. This process is called commissioning and involves both the contractor and operator of a facility. The transition from construction to operation is the commissioning and startup. A schedule must be established with benchmarks and monitoring activities in order to keep track of progress. Commissioning can be divided into three main activities: - Commissioning preparation - Commissioning execution - Commissioning documentation and handover to operation Commissioning Preparation commissioning preparation required to maintain two types of records 1. Commissioning Preparation Check Record Valves and equipment flow direction correct. Orifice plates installed check plate tab and its description. All instruments hooked up. 2. Instrument Installation and Inspection Installation check Check the instrument against the datasheet. Check calibration certificates. Installation check. Leakage test. Flushing carried out. Commissioning Execution Calibration and testing of instruments prior to installation. Visual inspection for complete and correct installation. Insulation and continuity testing of cables. Cleaning, flushing, pressure and leak testing of pneumatic and hydraulic tubing. Adjustment of control, alarm and shutdown settings. Loop testing. Function testing of control systems. +++ others relevants Commissioning Documentation Preparation & Handover Following are the documentation is prepared before the startup or at the end of commissioning and to be handed over once the commissioning process has been completed. Engineering Documentation Cable Diagrams/Schedules Instrument Indexes System & Marshalling cabinet cable schedules and Junction Box cable Schedules Vendor Lists Vendor Manuals including all vendor documents/drawings, Contractor Commissioning and Start-Up plans (CSU) and Operating Manuals Commissioning Spares Lists Valve Lists Cause and Effects Charts Trip Register/Schedule System P&IDs Punch points list. Also Read: Fire Alarm System Commissioning Final Documents for Commissioning After the successful completion of all pre-commissioning activities, the following list of final documents should be available readily for the commissioning activities, such us.

Good post with some basic and selfexplanatories points about precomm-comm activites.

Equipment Commissioning Checklist Equipment Commissioning Checklist An Equipment Commissioning Checklist created for eAuditor Audits & Inspections ensures that all steps and procedures for equipment commissioning […] The post Equipment Commissioning Checklist first appeared on eAuditor Audits & Inspections.

To foster a standardized approach post pre-commissioning, the next steps should involve crafting a comprehensive Commissioning Strategy. This strategy outlines the overarching methodology and primary objectives for the commissioning phase. Subsequently, a detailed Commissioning Management Plan should be developed, providing specific guidelines and procedures to be rigorously followed during the commissioning process.

For me, 'pre-commissioning' encompasses the Concept-of-Operations (ConOps), the Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP), and the Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP). These crucial elements lay the groundwork before entering the planning and commissioning lifecycle phases.

Are you familiar with the critical process of commissioning punch listing? It involves ensuring that all installed plant components are thoroughly checked and any unfinished work is documented and agreed upon. This meticulous process guarantees that the plant is ready to be handed over to the commissioning team. this document illustrates how to check and list the punches and prioritizes the same. #Commissioning #QualityAssurance

✅ NEW RESOURCE: Energization Checklist Great work to the Electrical Safety and BOP Committees! Let me know if you are interested in joining us or have any feedback. - Electrical testing and QA/QC checks are complete, but there's still a risk of component failure during energization. - To protect personnel, multiple safety controls are in place. - The checklist ensures critical safety areas are addressed and sets clear expectations for all site staff. - The site is now considered energized, with potential energy flow between the substation and site. - Any work on components must follow Lock Out Tag Out (LOTO) procedures or energized electrical work practices. #ElectricalSafety #LOTO #QAQC #WorkplaceSafety #Energization Grayling Vander Velde https://lnkd.in/eNHuJYfM
