Enhance rotating equipment reliability: Implementing a bad actor program in the oil and gas industry
Bad actor programs play a critical role in enhancing equipment reliability and optimizing maintenance costs within industrial plants. This article explores the implementation of such a program at Saudi Aramco’s Yanbu natural gas liquids Fractionation Department, focusing on rotating equipment such as pumps, compressors, turbines and motors.
Digital Exclusive: The future of gas turbines in the green revolution
With the rise of renewables wreaking dramatic changes to gas turbine operational modes, there is now an increased focus on minimizing operational costs. Gas turbines may be here to stay, but filter systems must remain relevant and efficient, as well. While today’s gas turbines run almost exclusively on fossil fuels like natural gas, it would be a misconception to consider them obsolete technology. Not only are gas turbines extremely efficient, but they possess qualities that are not just desirable but will remain essential even in a future energy system completely separated from the carbon-emitting fuels that presently dominate it.
