From delivery to decommissioning: a strategic look at comprehensive testing for electrical assets

Asset owners and managers often wonder about the condition of their electrical assets, particularly medium voltage and high voltage equipment, which generally represent significant capital investments. Unlike people, electrical assets can’t tell us what’s wrong or which part is malfunctioning. However, we can borrow an idea from medicine: performing diagnostic tests. Electrical testing helps identify potential issues and better understand an asset's condition.

Methods and Tools for Mining Asset Optimization: Practical Solutions (Part 2)

Measuring and optimizing asset performance are a must in the mining and metals industry. Faced with the pressure to extend equipment lifespan, improve overall performance and the need to remain competitive, companies must revisit and adapt their strategies to align their operations with best practices. This series of three publications will present three strategic elements to optimize asset performance and improve operational efficiency: 1. Data governance for performance indicators (KPIs) 2. Equipment downtime management 3. Adoption of new technologies We’ll also explore the key steps required for success and highlight the risks of inaction.
