Lotovskyi, E., Teixeira, A.P. and Guedes Soares C. (2020), “Availability analysis of an offshore oil and gas production system subjected to age-based preventive maintenance by Petri Nets”, Maintenance and Reliability (Eksploatacja i Niezawodnoœæ), Vol. 22(4), pp. 627-637
The main objective of this paper is to model an offshore oil production system subjected to age-based preventive maintenance strategies by Petri Nets and to evaluate its availability by Monte Carlo Simulation. The oil processing and the separation equipment with their reliability and maintainability characteristics, the corrective and preventive maintenance policies and the operational dependencies that lead to the reconfiguration of the system after the failure are implemented. A special attention is given to the effect of age-based perfect and imperfect preventive maintenance strategies on the system availability. The maintenance actions consider the components’ age thresholds and an age reduction ratio. Moreover, the variation of the oil and gas flows from the well over the years is accounted by the model. As case study, an offshore production installation that operates in a Brazilian oilfield is adopted. An elasticity analysis on the model parameters is conducted to assess influence of the maintenance policy on the system availability and on the oil production.
