Operations And Maintenance (o & M) Of Oil And Gas Facilities

Operations And Maintenance (o & M) Of Oil And Gas Facilities

Operation & Maintenance is a comprehensive, specialized package of services that starts with understanding the plant and its processes, together with the objectives of the owner. Effective maintenance increases the ‘up-time’ of the facilities – the time the plant is available for production. This increases operating revenue and also extends the asset’s productive lifetime thus reducing both the client’s capital expenditure and
environmental risks. Maintenance is an essential tool to optimize production without compromising operating safety. OBOD not only strives to fully master the technology of maintenance, but also to integrate it seamlessly into the designated production objectives.

IOM is a comprehensive, full-service package that allows asset owners to fully or partly outsource the Operation & Maintenance of their assets, without compromising operating safety or losing control of their assets, even –and particularly– in the world’s most challenging environments.

OBOD Integrated Operation & Maintenance services reduce exposure in remote regions and significantly reduce management time input. The concept allows for  a multi-level independent maintenance review followed by clear interfaces between OBOD and the client’s management.

OBOD’s IOM concept is based on partnership principles, which include:
1. An integrated project team that includes both Obod and client personnel.
2. An incentive scheme to align the objectives of Obod and its client, including:

  • HSEQ management.
  • Reliability and availability.
  •  Plant integrity.
  • Production objectives.
  • Cost reduction.

In short, OBOD  specializes in maintaining clients' production facilities so that they do what they should at minimum cost while upholding the highest safety and environment standards in the industry.
