The aim would be: To bring Design and Operations stage into closer alignment- including critical handover period. With Operations having greater input and control over the design process To develop guidance on management practices and to assess, optimise, manage and meet Safety, Environment and Production goals The primary motive for this is greater safety and environmental protection combined with cost effective production created through the integration of best practices in reliability engineering, technical risk management and Operational integrity Management. The key areas and principles that would be brought together could be addressed under the following headings: Reliability and Integrity Management Leadership and Direction Coherence and consistency of process and assessment between design and operation Data Management, feed back and organizational learning System Integrity Scope (TBD): Reliability Engineering and Integrity Management Systems (building on API RP 17N and other RP and standards) Including Operations input at design stage Handover to Operations Reliability Management of operating assets Practical reliability and integrity assessment tools and management tools Application to Subsea production systems subsea HIPPS Drilling completions including BOP systems Inspection, failure data collection and on-line/in-service condition monitoring of subsea systems Etc. Note: The role of Quality Control and Management, especially during manufacture is important and should logically be integrated into the S-RIMS systems. However, this make the task too difficult to achieve in the short term. John Strutt June 2010
