Defect Elimination Management


Defect Elimination Management is an important process to prevent failures fro reoccurring, eliminate bad actors, making the journey from a reactive to a pro-active mode..
Practiced in Shell D/S and U/S facilities

Process

Tools

People

Defect Elimination contains the well known methodology of Root Cause Analysis but does not stop there DEM is a fact based and structured Problem Solving Process DEM includes the process steps that are needed to ensure that the failure does not repeat itself the effective designing out of the root cause Defect Elimination needs to be structured as Information sources are not always fully tapped Contributing/related circumstances are not always obvious and require a through investigation and understanding Root causes can go deeper than manifestations and can be located in equipment defects, organisational problems or have process related deficiencies People tend to jump to conclusions as many are close to problems and have though about possible solutions but usually in isolation without the benefit of a structured and multidisciplinary approach

How do we build Reliability? Each item of equipment performs a function.


A pump moves fluid around a system A heat exchanger exchanges heat between two fluids Pipes and vessels contain the fluids A motor powers rotating or moving equipment.

Maintenance re-establishes or preserves the function Unplanned Reactive or breakdown maintenance More of this has the potential to reduce reliability Proactive or preventative maintenance More of this improves reliability

Additional Input:
IIT-Madrs - Fractographic surface analysis of the crack initiation point showed brittle fracture and later stage of failure revealed ductile type of fracture surface. This indicates that failure is progressive with initial propagation of crack by sulphide stress cracking and subsequently failing due to tensile over load when the vibration levels have gone up. This further justifies the phenomena of multiple failures at the same intense. Fracture analysis revealed sulphide stress cracking due to presence of wet H2S. The gas is 12% H2S rich and presence of moisture is confirmed as the scales are visible in suction volume bottle, cylinder chamber and piston head.

Lessons learned
Healthiness of Gas detection and alarm systems are to be ensured positively at all time and calibration should be done at least once in a month involving Operating / Safety personal. Carrying of portable gas monitors and hand held radio is must for operating personnel in hazardous area. Pre-Commissioning Safety audit on new facilities should focus on compliance to all standards as per the requirement in Design, Supply, Erection and Commissioning. Operating parameters are to maintained as prescribed in the manual and any change shall be entertained only through MoC. In case of operation of an equipment away from the design conditions is warranted then the with close monitoring. Auto draining and other protection systems are to be checked periodically in compressors handling condensable gas, to avoid liquid entry.
