Turnarounds

Unlock value: Streamline turnarounds for competitive advantage

Overview

Turnarounds in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries are critical planned periods of maintenance, upgrades, and repairs that involve temporarily shutting down facilities. These complex operations are strategically vital for ensuring long-term operational efficiency, safety, and regulatory compliance.

Effective turnarounds can significantly impact a company’s bottom line. Well-executed turnarounds can significantly boost a company’s profitability, while poorly managed ones can result in costly delays, safety risks, and potential environmental incidents.

Renoir has broad expertise in optimising turnarounds, streamlining logistics, planning and maintenance processes, and enhancing safety protocols. We implement advanced project management techniques, optimise resource allocation and integrate new technologies and processes during turnarounds to improve operational efficiency and environmental compliance.

By employing data analytics and predictive maintenance techniques, we assist operators optimise resource allocation, mitigate risks, and extend intervals between turnarounds. We use industry best practices and innovative approaches to minimise downtime and maximise productivity and output during these critical periods.

We also advise on supply chain optimisation, ensuring that the materials and spare parts needed for the turnaround are available when required. We implement performance tracking systems that allow real-time monitoring, enabling turnaround schedules to stay on track and within budget, maximising long-term profitability and operational excellence.
