A continuación, le indicamos cómo puede manejar las responsabilidades clave de un ingeniero de planta.

Integrating specialized knowledge into plant operations, maintenance, and project management is essential. Understanding the impact of piping systems on overall plant operations, as well as the interdependence between different plant systems and designs. By combining your piping design skills with plant engineer responsibilities, you can ensure safety, efficiency, and regulatory compliance.

I totally agree! I was an Electrical Engineer from Drexel University, Graduated in 1979. I worked at Peach Bottom as a Co-Op student from 1975-1978. I obtained a Job from PECo before I graduated in 1979. I worked at Peach Bottom from 1979-1982. Then I went to Limerick and started up both Units starting in 1982. Being involved in System Operations and Operations was invaluable in improving performance of these Nuclear Units!

It is crucial for the PE to have a comprehensive understanding of any system that may directly impact operations. Lube oil systems for rotating equipment, heating and cooling medium systems, instrument air, and N2 systems are often disregarded and pose a risk. It is essential to monitor utility systems on a daily basis and perform routine maintenance in accordance with the OEM's specifications. In order to prevent bottlenecks or oversupply, the PE must comprehend downstream demands and any plans to expand or reduce upstream. This enables the process cycle to be optimally tuned, thereby maximizing efficiency, and the equipment to be placed on a routine maintenance schedule, thereby preventing costly failures and unplanned outages.

Absolutely true, an engineer that has come up through the ranks and possess intimate knowledge of operating systems can save your plant. The areas of savings being repair costs, staffing requirements, and training programs.

Es geht nicht nur darum, zu wissen was das für eine Anlage ist und was genau die macht. Vielmehr um das große ganze System. -Welchen Zweck erfüllt eine Anlage/ein System? -Wie wird die Anlage gesteuert? -Wie wird die Anlage ausgelöst oder wie ist der normale Betriebszustand? -Welche Bauteile/Baugruppen sind wo verbaut und welchen Zweck erfüllen diese? -Wie ist der Aufbau des Systemes, wo gibt es bekannte Probleme, wo kann es Probleme geben, was sollte man immer im Auge behalten? Eine Anlage funktioniert nur einwandfrei, wenn alle Bauteile in dieser Anlage Funktionieren und in Fehlerfreien Zustand sind.

The experience of having worked the job and having the knowledge from having worked on systems is key for an engineer. The engineer can now make crucial decisions in safety systems by being able to determine if process, PPE, or a physical change of the systems are required for optimum safety conditions for employees. These experienced decisions will result in a boost of morale and keep you from OSHA 300 log entries and lack of compliance.

Regardless of whether the system is being engineered for a newly sanctioned facility, an addition to a brownfield facility, or a refurbishing of a system that is nearing the end of its lifecycle, it is imperative to adhere to the most current laws and regulations when designing and engineering a process system. The current laws and regulations are based on actual incidents that resulted in personal injury, loss of life, and catastrophic events, such as the Deepwater Horizon and Piper Alpha. They should be considered seriously. Safety is a collaborative effort, and it is crucial that all individuals contribute to the protection of the people, environment, and company assets.

Sicherheit betrifft nicht nur die Anlage und die Menschen in der Umgebung, sondern auch die es Technikers/Arbeiters an der Anlage. Welche gefahren gehen von der Anlage aus? Es ist immer wichtig bei jeder Anlage die besonderen Gefahrenstellen zu kennen wie besonders Heiße Stellen, hohe Spannungen, besondere Kälte oder auch nur scharfe Kannten. Vor dem Arbeiten/reparieren an der Anlage ist es wichtig auf besondere Abschaltbetriebe zu achten um die Anlage zum Beispiel Fehlerfre7Beschädigungsfrei abzuschalten und vom Stromnetz zu trennen. Auch haben Anlagen Sicherheitsüberwachungen die zum Beispiel die Temperatur, Spannung, Durchflussrate überwachen damit die Anlage in den gegebenen Parametern arbeitet und keinen Schaden nimmt.

Industries are undergoing significant changes as a result of technological advancements in the methods used to conduct and monitor equipment overhauls and maintenance. For example, a centrifugal compressor wheel might take up to sixteen months to be delivered in today's market utilizing traditional methods of fabrication, which is one of the key factors driving equipment overhauls and scheduling maintenance. With the use of Metrology, 3d scanning, and 3d printing, I have seen this window shortened to just 6 weeks.

Don't be to distant from the employees on the front lines. Casual and relaxed meetings with maintenance crew AND supervisory together on a level field will yield results. If you want to find out what needs the most or the least attention in your systems the men an women working on them will show you the way, the key is to remain humble. There have been more than a few times the experienced have more knowledge than the educated.

Eine Anlage kann nur Störungsfrei funktionieren und für Sicherheit sorgen oder Gewinn einfahren, wenn diese Regelmäßig überprüft und gegebenenfalls repariert wird. Viele Anlagen haben Verschleißteile die eine begrenzte Lebensdauer haben. Bei solchen Teilen ist es besonders wichtig auf den Zustand zu achten um Frühzeitig einen Ausfall dieses Teils zu verhindern um Stillstandzeiten oder gar eine Schwere Beschädigung der Anlage zu vermeiden. Für den Betreiber ist es auch wichtig auf Unregelmäßigkeiten zu achten oder gar auf neue Gereusche die von der Anlage kommen, da diese eine Störung verursachen können.

Superviser la maintenance est obligatoire car toute équipements mécaniques d'un système de production à besoin d'un suivie constant afin de le maintenir en bon état de fonctionnement et prolonger sa durée de vie

We can scan equipment to .001” accuracy then develop models from the scan data to use in an interactive environment. Here you can track, replenish, and fabricate spare parts, conduct training exercises, plan turnarounds, develop overhaul procedures, virtual overhaul with crew members prior to the TAR for a clear understanding of project deliverables, prep parts pre turnaround such as internal interstage seals allowing us to shave DAYS off of the TAR (virtual assembly). This is only naming a handful of the various ways in which we put this technology to use. Jan 2024 we overhauled a Clark 3M for ExxonMobil that traditionally took 12 days and successfully executed the overhaul in just 5 days, proving our method. >60% Duration Reduction.

To be effective in this leadership role you must remember humility and that views from different ways of thinking and different departmental cultures can be a big obstacle. The desire to get people hopping and moving on a project can blind you. Stop slow down and if possible have lunch and LISTEN while these groups tell you their questions and concerns. If you do this with each distinct department the take aways will be considerable. Listen and learn equals a far less painful project.

La formation et la disponibilité à apprendre est de nos jour un fait qui s'impose à nous dans le milieu de l'industrie vue que les innovations technologiques ne font que se présenter il est donc crucial de se former continuellement afin d'être indispensable et bénéfique dans tous entreprise
