Here i am trying to explaining about the role of Opercom® in oil and gas
commission activity
1. What is OPERCOM® ?
A: One week.
Conformity checks.
Static/de-energized tests.
Piping tests.
Commissioning engineering should start early in the project with some input
already during Basic Engineering and during the Call For Tender preparation.
The Commissioning competencies of the selected EPCC contractor, and of its
specialized sub-contractor are crucial and must be combined with a
mobilization plan well suited to both the contractor and the company.
Feedback at the end of the project is essential to help us improve our
knowledge and our technical standards.
Dynamic verification.
Testing with substitute fluids,
The preparation of the piping and vessels for start-up.
We can say:
5. Features of OPERCOM®
A multi-discipline methodology:
The Opercom® methodology spans all the activities and every branch of
discipline: Mechanics, Piping, Process, Electricity, Instrumentation
Designed in the late 80s to test Oil & Gas installations, Opercom® is now
recognized for the breadth of its industrial spectrum: Agro-industry, building
and civil engineering…Used for over twenty years now, the method has
benefited from the feedback very many projects which has further enhanced
its reliability. Any installation in any sector of activity can be tested using the
Opercom® methodology.
After the key step of breakdown into Systems and Sub-systems, Specification
GS EP EXP 103 organizes the Engineering of Pre-commissioning and
Commissioning, detailing how the tasks on the equipment to be tested are
allocated.This comprises three main parts:
This set of some 400 test sheets indicates in detail all the verification’s and all
the tests to be carried out as part of Pre-commissioning.
This set of some 100 test sheets indicates in detail all the verification’s and all
the tests to be carried out as part of Commissioning.
