Turnaround Planning
Over time, performance of valves and actuators will decrease due to degradation which leads to failure and so there are shutdowns (planned or unplanned) in which improved performance must be addressed. Improvements will come from three areas:
- Minimizing the total downtime during a turnaround. Knowing what to do before the turnaround is an essential piece for improved reliability.
- Maximizing the elapsed time between turnarounds will impact the up-time and profitability of the unit.
- Maintaining reliable performance of the equipment by reducing or eliminating unscheduled downtime.
Our Field Service Group provides a variety of services that are uniquely designed to achieve minimal downtime, maximum run time and maintain reliable performance.
Condition Evaluation & Work Scope Definition
Our team will conduct an on-site evaluation of component conditions to ensure the scope of work is properly defined prior to any turnaround.

Turnaround Planning & Scheduling
Prior to your shutdown, our team is available to help minimize your downtime by:
- Review in detail the report from last turnaround.
- Conduct a “hands on” inspection of the spare parts held in inventory and record their existing condition.
- Walk through the unit and determine necessary manpower and equipment required.
- Perform a risk assessment and develop a safety plan.
