Abstract:
Competition among global industrial companies has become feature of this
era; this has begun to emerge in the middle of the last century and during vigorous
and serious attempts to develop specific industrial criteria in order to be used as
standards, many renowned companies in the global market such as Ford Motor of
America (PM) and Japanese Toyota (TPM) has established foundations and systems
[4]
which later became the cornerstone in the management of maintenance . But,
implementation of these standards would not be easy in this turf without computers
aid, and have proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the computerized Maintenance
Management System was a real addition contributed to reduce maintenance
expenses, which in turn led to increase profits and this is the crux of the matter.
In this applied research, an attempt had been done to optimize the
computerized maintenance management system which already implemented in
Greater Nile Petroleum Operating Company – which is considered a pioneer in this
field – in Neem Field Processing Facilities after arise of some problems in the
system such as non-updated with the new projects, which was created later to
improve the field productivity, in which maintenance operations were conducted
randomly, and that in turn leads to more use of spare parts and lubricant oils. Also,
the company’s policy towards the maintenance of some units in the field has become
not possible due to the lack of requirements of this policy in the company, so
Cworks system was implemented to address these problems and to improve the
performance of maintenance in the field and to re-evaluated the real consumption of
the spare parts and lubricant for the maintenance planner.
Been taken into account that Cworks software is similar to the system which
is currently applied, and to be applied easily, free of complexity, it also contains a
record of the data entered previously for any equipment had been repaired, which
facilitates the process of analyzing the failures to apply maintenance strategies such
as reliability and availability that’s through Mean Time Between Failure, and Mean
Time To Repair standards. And has demonstrated program effectiveness after a
simple application of PM on chemical pumps after the company has been using a
maintenance system known as (Run To Failure), also consumption control is
increased for spare parts and oils by knowing the amounts specified for each job,
that is after submitting these amounts in the work permit.
