Who should
attend?
Successful shutdowns, turnarounds and
outages require the disciplined application
of proven processes and interdepartmental
partnerships. It is important for departments
that are influenced and impacted by the
processes to understand them. People in
the following roles should participate in this
forum:
Maintenance Planner/Schedulers
Production Supervisors
Storeroom Managers

A letter from Fleming Gulf

The 4th annual Plant Shutdown and Turnaround forum will be an extraordinary opportunity
for you to gain specific, forward- thinking strategies and solutions to maximize results
during your next shutdown, turnaround or outage. It has been designed to deliver thoughtprovoking insight and in-depth content covering important aspects of these critical projects.
The event will ultimately introduce some innovative technologies that will help you improve
STO efficiencies and effectiveness, giving you a greater return on your shutdowwn investment.
What makes the 4th edition different is that it is not just another conference; rather it is a
community of maintenance, reliability, engineering, operations, production and financial
professionals, who are dedicated to coming together, sharing experiences, learning from one
another and exploring innovative solutions and technologies. We are confident that someone
in the community has the answer, right now, to your most difficult challenge.

INDUSTRY TRENDS
During these times of global uncertainty, fluctuating oil prices and reduced margins, it is more important
than ever to maintain existing plants and equipment with minimum investment. In todays environment, Oil,
Gas and Power plants face a unique problem when it comes to managing the work and costs associated with
Shutdowns, Turnarounds and Outages projects.
Historically, there was a tendency among operating companies to view turnarounds as an inevitable and
necessary evil, and to accept that they would cost what they cost and take as long as they take. However,
in recent years, there has been a growing recognition that this attitude leaves money on the table in the
form of the opportunity cost of lost production while the facility is shut down for longer than necessary;
and unnecessarily excessive expenditure of money during the turnaround, through running the turnaround
inefficiently.

What is NEXT GEN PLANT SHUTDOWNS AND TURNAROUNDS?

Next Gen Plant Shutdown and Turnarounds are SMARTER, SAFER, EFFICIENT & MONEY SAVING. This has been
possible with the application of technology. IT & Communication, project management, data management,
lean management principles and technologies have revolutionized theses critical projects thus saving time
and money while ensuring safe operations.

4th ANNUAL PLANT SHUTDOWNS AND TURNAROUND FORUM 2014

Turnaround projects are very time-critical, especially during periods of strong demand. However, schedules are
quite tricky and are all too often neglected by management.
DAY 1 (MAIN CONFERENCE) This day will address various scheduling issues in turnaround projects. This will
highlight to the decision-makers the enormous potential that optimized scheduling can have on influencing
the success of a turnaround project. Why focus on scheduling?

Conventional scheduling systems, methods and processes have many shortcomings when it comes to
handling the increasing complexity and demands of todays projects. Coming up with a good schedule is a
stern challenge in and of itself as it must provide a flexible navigation system to support the team throughout
the execution phase. Project managers need to know the upto- date project status at all times, warn against
threatening risks and find the ideal path, even though this changes from day to day. This requires tools that
enable an immediate response, and this is what a good schedule is for.
DAY 2 (MAIN CONFERENCE) This day of the event will highlight some path breaking technologies that are
driving the complete cycle of plant shutdowns and turnarounds towards safety and efficiency.

Thoughtfully designed to encourage you to look outside of your company and industry, Plant Shutdown and
Turnaround Forum will be a gathering where maintenance, reliability and shutdown professionals will engage
in important conversations, find answers to common challenges and inspire one another to explore future
opportunities

9.00 Workshop A: Preparing production equipment, process equipment, benzene, LEL and H2S
contaminated equipment for safer and faster maintenance

Explore a unique decontamination method for freeing refinery and petrochemical plants, vessels and lines of
several common hazardous materials in order to make these vessels safe for personnel entry
Examine why the ability to deal with so many contaminations as a part of one application
promotes both speed and safety and provides numerous benefits
Investigate how the method presented is able to reduce cost, reduce personnel risk, reduce pyrophoric risks
to vessels, reduce cleaning and decontamination time and promote environmentally-sensitive methods as
viable choices for hazard reduction
Discover that these goals can be achieved in greatly reduced time compared to conventional technologies,
providing significant cost benefits to the operator

18.00 Cocktails & Gala dinner~ Relax! Network! Do Business!

Business over dinner is an an extra-ordinary networking platform that Fleming

Gulf would like to provide to enable easy and more effective communication. This
will be a very encouraging and facilitating platform for the entire plant shutdown and
turnaround community to get together and create quality connections. This event is
the perfect place to join your fellow peers, industry thought-leaders and Fleming Gulf
staff for casual dinner and conversation before the event revs into high gear on the

risks to asset reliability and integrity
The objective of a turnaround is to improve or at least maintain
the state of the asset, but does that always happen? In fact the
condition of some pieces of equipment can actually deteriorate
as a result of turnaround activity. These risks to asset reliability
and integrity can originate from any of the turnaround phases:

Need of control valve diagnosis

Latest technologies for control valve diagnosis
User experiences and benefits

From the work identification and planning phase, such

as the failure to identify defects on critical equipment or
omitting to order key replacement components

issues such as poor procedures and poor checking
To help turnaround managers and engineers plot a path
through this minefield, this highly interactive workshop will:
Identify all the potential risks to asset reliability and integrity
presented by the turnaround process
Provide a series of tools and methods that, if applied
effectively, maximise the benefits to asset reliability and
integrity resulting from the turnaround

Organisations in hazardous industries have one

overriding objective; deliver performance in a
responsible and sustainable manner. Stakeholder
expectations of operational performance have
never been higher as the consequences of getting
it wrong are significant, so its understandable
operational performance is a board level challenge.
We provide scalable solutions and tools that
empower organisations in hazardous industries from the boardroom to the frontline to proactively
manage the organisation to a less risky and more optimised performance. Organisations can
standardise their approaches, improve how work is executed on a day to day basis and ensure
frontline work processes can be intelligently integrated, embedded, automated and managed, and
that the strategic intent of policies is delivered into operational practice. As work is being carried out
according to policy, contextual data and role specific metrics are automatically captured as part of
routine processes, providing meaningful insight and unparalleled operational intelligence. This
empowers structured decision making, improving competencies and capabilities to proactively
balance workload against risk and enhance overall performance. For the first time, operational
leaders can start to understand and proactively manage the relationship between performance and
risk, and drive continuous improvements across the enterprise.

AYTB is an integrated organization providing

industrial services that cover: Operation &
maintenance, construction, plant engineering
support, on-site/shop fabrication, equipment
