Course Overview

Maintenance shutdowns and outages are one of the most challenging periods in the industry, covering technical challenges, legislation, and financial and logistical issues on a large scale, and this is before the consideration of managing people with large teams, motivating, and bringing them together. Shutdowns are the most costly and time-consuming maintenance projects, leading to loss of production and expenses. In reality, the risk to equipment reliability, production integrity and operation efficiency increases due to machinery failure and unscheduled outages. To avoid production delays and costly maintenance repairs, companies strive to execute shutdown projects as effectively and efficiently as possible during the first time.
