Reliability Centered Maintenance Implementation at CUF Kertih

The reliability of the equipment on the plan is the most important parameter to be considered and improve. This parameter will be determining the equipment operating performance and the maintenance cost efficiency for the plan. The most common method used in improve the reliability of equipment is Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM).

The main aims for this project are to study the concept of theoretical RCM analysis and RCM implementation at CUF Kertih. The main similarity and differences of these two concepts will be identified. The others aim is to assess the Equipment Criticality of the LOX process pump for 2007-2009 period. This analysis will determine the criticality of equipment in the pump and will prioritize the maintenance effort. The FMEA also implemented to identify the major failure causes for the equipment.

For this project, the theoretical RCM analysis and the RCM implementation at CUFK will be study and analyzed to make comparison between these two concepts. For the case study, there are two analysis that will perform, Equipment Criticality Analysis (ECA) and FMEA. For ECA, this analysis will identify the major pump equipment that are effect the plan in term of economic, health and safety, and environment. For FMEA, this analysis will identify the pump standard performance, the functional failure of the critical pump equipment and also will identify the failure cause of the equipment functional failure.
