6 Engineering competence in the oil and gas industry has a name: EPLAN Software & Service Advantages that will impress you: Uniform bill of materials for each discipline Standardised, current and correct data Combination of component management and revision management Intelligent documentation over the entire life cycle High level of transparency Time savings throughout the entire process from to maintenance Reduction of error and project risks Exemplary workflow 1 Efficient material management Consistency is the key and speed and accuracy are of the essence Whether providing advanced solutions to help improve performance, solve complex challenges or making oil fields more productive consistency is always the key. Integrated component management systems are able to identify and order the correct materials as early as possible. This way, orders can be rapidly executed, with less risk of design or purchasing errors. Using EPLAN bi-directional functionality with a PDM link, all design work can be done in-house and you have the ability to create a centralised component database within a PDM system. P&ID describe processes PROCESS TECHNOLOGY Fluid power construct pneumatics ENGINEERING PDM/ERP Standardisation is the foundation EPLAN PPE is used to install a process control strategy and accelerate the creation of Process and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID). Standardising P&ID development with EPLAN PPE results in vastly improved internal coordination, and makes it possible to get quicker approvals for P&ID layouts, which in turn has added procurement benefits. You can therefore order the main components more quickly. Because you have an overview of the material requirements much sooner, you can shorten the turnaround time considerably. Consistent and centralised solution for Centralising component management has many customer benefits. Among these is the ability to give accurate project quotes sooner, as well as to generate clear and complete documentation in a consistent format, whether it is the P&ID, the EIP list and bill of materials, or the comprehensive suite of documents that accompanies the completed job. Such standardised, high-quality documentation helps maintenance staff on a service call make the right diagnosis quickly to resolve problems as efficiently as possible. Linking EPLAN, ERP and PDM saves time and minimises errors Using an integrated system to correct errors and inconsistencies as early as possible, departments can begin turning orders around more quickly, with a lower risk of design or purchasing errors. The connection between the ERP, PDM and EPLAN prevents miscommunication and unnecessary paper flows. This gives an overview of available parts and enables the use of a single bill of materials rather, than using separate ones for each discipline. The use of a single BOM reduces ordering errors, assists purchasing to recognise and troubleshoot delays before they become serious.
