Description
Bureau.Veritas.VeriSTAR.Optimise.v3.01.6
The new version of Optimise combines the detailed capabilities of
traditional RAM software with shipping simulation.
Software upgrades include a modern, custom user interface that is
intuitive making model building of complicated scenarios a simpler task.
Thus, key critical parameters for subsea development such as production
profile or failure modes are now easy to model. Development of
sensitivity cases with Optimise will allow to adapt the maintenance
strategy for the wells or other subsea process equipment in order to get
the best availability. It will also allow operators to plan the OPEX
related to the Inspection, Maintenance and Repair (IMR) Vessels or
drilling rig to be mobilised.
Only part of the solution to improve subsea equipment reliability while
optimising maintenance costs can be found in the international standards.
RAM analysis becomes one of the most powerful methods to assist companies
in Offshore field development optimisation. RAM studies will allow
understanding of the reliability based interactions within the subsea
field and will provide the design team with a tool for quantifying system
performance, identifying the critical aspects of the design and allow the
impact of varying design, operations and specially maintenance criteria
to be understood. It will ensure the process design is safe, reliable and
that production availability will not be impacted by specific bottleneck.
