Rotating Equipment Loss Prevention - An Insurer's Viewpoint.
Abstract
Accidents involving rotating equipment in chemical, petrochemical,
petroleum, and gas plants can result in damage to other
process equipment and catalysts along with lost production.
Conversely, process upsets, process instrumentation failure, or
failures of other process equipment can result in damage to rotating
equipment. An effective rotating equipment loss prevention
program will be an integral part of an effective plantwide loss prevention
program, since all aspects of plant operation and
maintenance affect rotating equipment.
Specific rotating equipment loss prevention recommendations of
the chemical, oil, and gas business unit of one insurance company
are presented. Rotating equipment loss statistics of one insurance
company are also presented.
