Abstract
Petronas Carigali Peninsular Malaysia Asset (PMA) is currently operating more than 80 units of gasturbine comprises or Power Generation and Gas Compression system More than half of a gas turbinepopulation in PETRONAS resides in PMA It is a great challenge to Operate and Maintain these turbinesto achieve its intended reliability and performance To fulfil PETRONAS Corporate agenda ondigitalization, PMA has embarked on Machinery Remote Monitoring & Diagnostic (MRMD) A fullfledge MRMD Center has been established in PMA to monitor the performance and operations ofidentified Super Critical equipment The setup has significantly reduced equipment downtime andunplanned deferment with value creations and cost avoidance for more than RM5 million a year Onthe other hands, PMA has a dedicated team called ‘Roving Gang’ who maintain turbomachineryequipment in PMA operations PMA has institutionalized internal capability building and competencywhich resulted in reduction of vendor Field Service Representative (FSR) utilization to more than 500%within 4 years This paper shall elaborate the best practices and ways to achieve World ClassMaintenance Practitioner which resulted in good Reliability and Performance of rotating equipmentbased on a case study in Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd
