Introduction:

This Effective Shutdown Planning and Turnaround Management workshop will walk you through key concepts and strategies to manage effective plant shutdowns and turnarounds. Individuals or teams will learn how to create a shutdown and turnaround roadmap and a clear assurance process plan, aligned with your organization’s key business objectives. Thorough understanding of the full equipment life cycle, you will be able to identify gaps in your preparation and execution and plan safe and productive turnarounds, with optimized scheduling and cost control that enable you to deliver both on time and on budget. Additionally, you will also learn to drive and navigate your shutdown, turnaround & outage events by using DSM (Dynamic Scheduling Methodology) and Primavera™ P6 tools.

Objective:

The course objective is to optimize and reduce the total cost of planned outages while maintaining and improving unplanned plant availability.

As mentioned above, half of all plant shutdowns are delayed by more than 20% and 80% go over budget by more than 10%. Frequently, the work scope increases unexpectedly by up to 50%. In industries that operate 24/7, where downtime can cost $100,000 per hour or more, these expensive, time-consuming projects must be treated like pit stops, with maximum preparation and minimal surprises. This requires a profound understanding of the critical elements, drivers, and constraints that shape the event.

With the guidance of global STO subject-matter expert, E. J. Lister, you will walk through in an interactive platform, the key concepts and strategies to manage effective plant shutdowns and turnarounds. You will learn how to create a shutdown and turnaround roadmap and a clear assurance process plan, aligned with your organization’s key business objectives. With an understanding of the full equipment life cycle, you will be able to identify gaps in your preparation and execution and plan safe and productive turnarounds. Then, with optimized scheduling and cost control, you will be able to deliver both on-time and on-budget events. Additionally, you will also learn to drive and navigate your shutdown, turnaround & outage events by using DSM (Dynamic Scheduling Methodology) and Primavera™ P6 tools.

Content:

Module 1 – Asset Management (Workscope & Budget Optimization)

In this session, participants will learn to establish the most optimized Scope of Work & Budget for their event using RBSR (Risk-based Scope Review) methodology and budgeting tools. The goal here is to focus on effectiveness and the 2 key indicators of Cost and Schedule Duration (timeline with minimal production loss). Participants will learn to:

  • Establish a 5- 10- 15-year STOp Plan for Sustainable & Profitable Operation
  • ERP/CMMS Data Management with Industrial Digitalization and Data Management
  • RBSR (Risk-based Scope Review)
  • Establishing a 3-Phase Budget
  • Establish STO Event Kick-off
  • Establish Goals & Objectives
  • Establish realistic KPI (Key Performance Indicators) & Targets
  • Establish Vision & Mission
  • Establish the STO Organization with Roles & Responsibilities
  • Establish WBS (Work Breakdown Structure)

Module 2 – Strategic Planning & Plan2Plan

In this session, participants will learn to facilitate Strategic Planning Workshops as part of the Plan2Plan (Milestone Schedule) from event kick-off to feed-out date (T-minus Zero). Methodology, Navigational Roadmap, and tools will be provided. Participants will learn to collaborate in a transparent manner, using MS Teams© or other digital solutions to ensure everyone contributes to the planning of the event with 3 key indicators in mind: Safety, Quality, Worker Wrench-time Efficiency. Participants will learn to:

  • Establish a Plan2Plan Milestone Schedule
  • Establish RACI Matrix and assign Responsibility and Accountability to key members of the STO Event Team (Steering Committee and Core Team)
  • Create and facilitate Strategic Planning Workshops for: Permitting, Tools & Materials, Planning, Inspection, Procurement/Contracting, HSE, Logistics, Mobilization, Communication & Meetings, Resource Management, Execution Management & Control, QA/QC, Shutdown/Start-up, LOTO, etc.
  • Learn to establish a Weekly Core Team Meeting (create an agenda)
  • Learn to create an Action Tracker (provided)
  • Establish Contract Types based on Work Type with Terms & Conditions
  • Perform a Readiness Assessment (tool provided)
  • Industrial Digitalization for web- and cloud-based transparent, secure and collaborative teams
  • Working remotely

Module 3 – Work Package Planning

In this session, participants will learn the best practices for creating Work Packages, estimating, assembly, and tracking to ensure each package has its contributors involved and adds to the value of the 3 key indicators above. This will include Planning, Estimating, Bill of Materials, Equipment, Drawings, Photos, and preparing to upload to Primavera™ P6 or MS Project©. An example of a Work Package will be provided, along with best-practices, templates, and tools. Participants will learn to:

  • Basis of Planning & Scheduling review (documents)
  • How to establish a Planning Team
  • Roles & Responsibilities of Planning Team
  • Create world-class Work Packages (examples provided)
  • Track Work Package Progress (tool provided)
  • Benchmark estimating standards
  • Understand PF (Productivity Factors) for non-productive time
  • ITP (Inspection & Test Plans)
  • MOC (Management of Change)

Module 4 – DSM (Dynamic Scheduling Methodology)

In this session, participants will learn the art of scheduling in Primavera™ P6 – also applies to MS Project© in order to produce the most optimized Project Plan: Lowest Cost, Shortest Duration, Least Amount of Resources. A manual for P6 will be provided, along with lessons and links to download Oracle P6 and XER lessons. Participants will learn to:

  • DSM (Dynamic Scheduling Methodology) in Primavera™ P6 (examples provided)
  • Schedulers’ Roles & Responsibilities
  • Scheduling techniques and best practices
  • How to produce the most optimized Project Plan: Lowest Cost, Shortest Duration, Least amount of Resource (Direct and Indirect)
  • Create Daily Shift Reports
  • How to Drive your STO Event
  • Receiving accurate and timely field updates

Module 5 – DEC (Dynamic Execution Control)

In this session, participants will learn how to Drive & Navigate their events using War Room Strategic Sessions and Execution Controls. This is the most important, valuable session to be presented. Demonstrations using Primavera ™ P6 and a simulation exercise will be included. Participants will learn to:

  • How to establish the War Room
  • War Room Strategy Sessions, attendance and agenda
