Annexure -

RELIABILITY CELL - SCOPE

RTF Guidelines & Compliance

• Structured monitoring of compliance to RTF Recommendations


pertaining to Mechanical/ Electrical/ Instrument/ Inspection

• Periodic Revisit of RTF Guidelines

• Structured Cross Refinery Audit of Compliance to RTF Guidelines

• RTF implementation in Projects/ Revamps

Improve Maintenance Strategies

• Implement Predictive Maintenance: Use IoT sensors and data


analytics to predict equipment failures before they occur.

• Optimize Preventive Maintenance: Ensure maintenance


schedules are aligned with operational needs and based on
equipment criticality.

• Focus on maintaining equipment based on its operational


importance and failure consequences.
Conduct Root Cause Analysis (RCA) of all Interruptions/ Failures

• Identify Patterns: Analyze historical data to identify common


causes of interruptions (e.g., equipment failure, supply chain
issues, human error, or process inefficiencies).

• Use RCA Tools: Employ tools like the 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagram
(Ishikawa), or Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) etc. to
drill down to the root causes.

• Prioritize Issues: Focus on the most frequent or impactful


interruptions first.

Reliability Monitoring of Equipment

• Monitoring System of capturing Low MTBF, MTTR, High


Expenditure etc. Equipment and Mitigation Plan & Compliance.

• Monitoring Timely compliance of overhauling schedule of all


Super Critical Equipment.

• Bad Actor identification & liquidation Monitoring.

• Obsolescence Removal Guidelines Compliance & Monitoring

• Timely compliance of Inspection Schedule of Static Equipment.

• Monitoring of critical recommendations through CIRMS

• Ensuring execution of Impact Assessment Study

• Monitoring of Impact Study Recommendations Compliance.

• Bad Actor identification & liquidation Monitoring.


Leverage Technology and Digitalization

• Data Analytics and Use of AI/ ML to identify trends, predict


issues, and improve decision-making.

• Development of Advanced Predictive Monitoring AI/ ML based


Tool for generation of Pro-active Alarms of early fault detection
before occurrence of any abnormality which may lead to failure.

• Advanced Monitoring & Generation of Reports and ensuring


system for liquidation of gaps.

• Benchmarking with Global Standards and Exploration &


Implementation of New Reliability Improvement Tools &
Techniques.

Coordination with Refinery Unit Reliability Improvement Cells

• Continuous Co-ordination with Unit Reliability Improvement Cell


for implementation, adoption and liquidation of all Reliability
Improvement Initiatives, activities & recommendations in a time
bound manner.

Skill Gap Identification & Upgradation

• Identification of Gaps of Existing Maintenance Team

• Recommendations for adequate Skill Development Program
