Streamlined operations with Ultimo’s EAM solution
The company sought a solution to centralize asset information, reduce operational inefficiencies and pave the way for predictive maintenance. After evaluating various options, they selected Ultimo's EAM solution for its flexibility, mobile capabilities and rapid deployment.
Maintenance & data management challenges
Before implementing Ultimo's EAM, this oil and gas company encountered multiple challenges, including:
• Lack of centralized asset data management
• Reliance on spreadsheets for tracking equipment locations
• Inefficient maintenance processes leading to increased downtime
• Limited visibility into asset performance and maintenance history
Ultimo EAM software and mobile implementations
The implementation commenced in April 2024, with full deployment achieved by July 2024. Ultimo's EAM software, along with mobile capabilities, was rolled out across all major facilities. The project involved collaboration between the company's facilities management team and Ultimo's implementation partner, MaxGrip.
Key Objectives:
Centralize asset data into a unified system
Enhance maintenance scheduling and tracking
Enable mobile access for field technicians
Lay the groundwork for predictive maintenance strategies
Solutions & Results: Centralized asset data management
Ultimo helped the upstream oil and gas company to centralize data, streamline work orders and improve data reliability, laying the foundation for asset management and advancing them into the early stages of EAM maturity.
Key benefits realized include:
· Improved maintenance & decision making
· Enhanced efficiency & automation
· Financial ROI & compliance benefits
· Sustainability & ESG alignment
The Future for the upstream oil & gas company
The company plans to fully integrate preventive maintenance data into Ultimo, aiming to transition towards predictive maintenance strategies in the future. They are also very keen to explore further automation of work orders and deeper integration with inventory management systems to enhance operational efficiency. Finally, they’re considering expanding the implementation of IFS Ultimo to seven additional regions, with future plans to integrate SCADA and APM systems for advanced monitoring and analytics.
