Develop a best-in-class maintenance organization by selecting the right performance metrics. Edited by an author with over 30 years of experience in oil and gas maintenance, Oil and Gas Performance Maintenance Metrics provides the tools and methods to develop revolutionary proactive maintenance metrics that are guaranteed to save time and money and improve reliability. Oil and Gas Performance Maintenance Metrics provides maintenance managers with the metrics, calculations and indicators for measuring maintenance, reliability and availability performance. With this book in hand, maintenance supervisor learn to calculate a number of key performance indicators (KPIs), such as maintenance cost, maintenance man hours and availability performance that drive performance. Brief and readable, the book’s seven part treatment starts with a clear and rigorous exposition of the terminology and definitions in maintenance, followed by self-contained chapter on the indicators and how to improve the performance measured by the indicators/metrics. The book is accompanied by downloadable apps for calculating a number of key performance indicators. Downloadable apps for Calculating key performance indicators Tips and methods to disseminate knowledge and share best practices Methods for improving performance based on the indicators/metrics

To be able to compete successfully both at national and international levels, production systems and equipment must perform at levels not even thinkable a decade ago. Requirements for increased product quality, reduced throughput time and enhanced operating effectiveness within a rapidly changing customer demand environment continue to demand a high maintenance performance. In some cases, maintenance is required to increase operational effectiveness and revenues and customer satisfaction while reducing capital, operating and support costs. This may be the largest challenge facing production enterprises these days. For this, maintenance strategy is required to be aligned with the production logistics and also to keep updated with the current best practices. Maintenance has become a multidisciplinary activity and one may come across situations in which maintenance is the responsibility of people whose training is not engineering. This handbook aims to assist at different levels of understanding whether the manager is an engineer, a production manager, an experienced maintenance practitioner or a beginner. Topics selected to be included in this handbook cover a wide range of issues in the area of maintenance management and engineering to cater for all those interested in maintenance whether practitioners or researchers. This handbook is divided into 6 parts and contains 26 chapters covering a wide range of topics related to maintenance management and engineering.

Over recent years, many new technologies have been introduced to drive the digital transformation in the building maintenance industry. The current trend in digital evolution involves data-driven decision making which opens new opportunities for an energy centered maintenance model. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are helping the maintenance team to get to the next level of maintenance intelligence to provide real-time early warning of abnormal equipment performance. This edition follows the same methodology as the First. It provides detailed descriptions of the latest technologies associated with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning which enable data-driven decision-making processes about the equipment’s operation and maintenance. Technical topics discussed in the book include: Different Maintenance Types and The Need for Energy Centered Maintenance The Centered Maintenance Model Energy Centered Maintenance Process Measures of Equipment and Maintenance Efficiency and Effectiveness Data-Driven Energy Centered Maintenance Model: Digitally Enabled Energy Centered Maintenance Tasks Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Energy Centered Maintenance Model Capabilities and Analytics Rules Building Management System Schematics The book contains a detailed description of the digital transformation process of most of the maintenance inspection tasks as they move away from being manually triggered. The book is aimed at building operators as well as those building automation companies who are working continuously to digitalize building operation and maintenance procedures. The benefits are reductions in the equipment failure rate, improvements in equipment reliability, increases in equipment efficiency and extended equipment lifespan.
