WHY YOU SHOULD BE THERE the reliability of a product or system and associated spares will deteriorate over time with usage, environment, idleness, treatment and maintenance. loss of knowledge and experience through personnel movement can also affect reliability. unless appropriate action is taken to manage and alleviate these factors, overall reliability will suffer. this seminar will attempt to explain and expand upon such factors. delegates will hear the principles of reliability, and its importance. case studies will show examples of organisations successfully managing reliability and how monitoring their achievement can lead to improved products or services. Experts will offer methods and processes to help identify problems and provide solutions to overcome them. benefits Of AttENDANcE: understand the importance, what is meant by and the principles behind, the management of reliability see examples of where reliability has been successfully managed and where it has not Hear where reliability management has been successfully applied retrospectively to improve performance learn methods and processes to assess potential reliability and identify problems before they incur high costs of rectifi cation and compensation improve knowledge and understanding of the many aspects of reliability management and monitoring their achievement, thereby improving the product or service being provided when 14 november 2012 where one birdcage Walk, london, sw1h 9JJ book ONliNE www.imeche.org/events/s1727 SuPPORtiNG ORGANiSAtiONS SPONSORShiP & ExhibitiON OPPORtuNitiES GEt involved attending this event as either an exhibitor or sponsor will give you the opportunity to display your solutions, services and products to the right people at the right time. this is an excellent way to enhance your company profi le and communicate effectively to your target audience. benefits Of SPONSORiNG showcase new products raise awareness of your operation improve perception of your brand infl uence other organisations spending plans For sponsorship and exhibition enquiries, please contact Aman Duggal on +44 (0)20 7973 1309 or sponsorship@imeche.org

SPEAKERS AND CONTRIBUTORS PROGRAMME welcome WEDNESDAY 14/11 9:00 9:20 Registration Welcome and introduction Bob Wilson, Chairman Chris Macdonald-Bradley Principal Product Engineer, TRW Conekt In his 12 years with Conekt, Chris has been technical lead to several new-product development programmes which have required EMC, climatic and dynamic testing. Session 1 9:30 10:00 Keynote address: Designing for and maintaining reliability John Hopper, (Formerly) Rolls-Royce End users expect that a product or system will work and go on working over what they perceive to be its predicted life With the anticipated life of some products and systems being in decades, not years, designing for long life needs to be an even more fundamental part of the process In today s economic climate, the reduction of operational costs and continued operation of products and equipment beyond their design lives becomes even more vital The speaker will remind attendees of the underlying principles for achieving reliability, suggesting a number of methods whereby it may be monitored in service. From asset supplier to service provider Mark Norris, Director, Asset Reliability Consultants Ltd Revenue sources for the supplier and customer Service provider benefits for the supplier and customer Lifecycle reliability engineering and asset management Reliability centred maintenance Reliability growth planning Whole life cost modelling Mark Norris Director, Asset Reliability Consultants Ltd Mark has extensive experience in new product introduction, FMEA, design, development, testing, manufacturing, field failure resolution, problem solving and root cause analysis. 10:30 Asset performance management based on reliability engineering methods Mike McCarthy, Principal Reliability Engineer, Wilde Analysis UK Review the reliability methodologies that can deliver significant business benefit for asset performance management Discuss how these methods and tools can be used to manage asset risk and maintenance costs through life Show how methods such as RCM and FMECA link to quantitative tools such as life data analysis, accelerated testing, system modelling and standards based prediction Discuss how companies can tailor their own processes for asset performance management using modern reliability methods 11:00 Refreshments Session 2 11:30 12:00 12:30 Managing reliability growth of new technologies through environmental testing Chris Macdonald-Bradley, Principal Product Engineer, TRW Conekt Using environmental testing as a means for reliability growth and failure analysis What can test results tell us about reliability of products in the field? How test procedures evolve and develop and when to go beyond the test standards for new applications and technologies Devising new test strategies for new applications Managing ongoing reliability for products in the field with testing and validation Smarter asset management in the oil industry. improving the relationship between cost and performance Robert Garratt, Executive Partner, IBM Global Business Services How the oil industry has matured its processes from work management to reliability-centred maintenance management How the oil industry s approach to maintenance management differs from other industries How analytics can be used to take data from disparate systems and inform maintenance decisions How the global standardisation of maintenance processes drives consistency, reliability and safety Q&A session

SPEAKERS AND CONTRIBUTORS PROGRAMME (CONTINUED) 12:45 lunch break Mike McCarthy Principal Reliability Engineer, Wilde Analysis UK Mike uses reliability tools to gain insight into business and engineering issues and helps his clients make risk based decisions using limited data. Session 3 13:45 14:15 Oil and gas accommodation sizing for long term facilities integrity Dr. Neil Arthur, Director, XPD8 Solutions Ltd Accommodation sizing for offshore oil and gas facilities is critical as this impacts on capital and operational costs; facilities weights; the capacity to liquidate work and ultimately facility reliability and integrity Understanding the impacts of various accommodation sizes during the facility design stage is important as it allows decisions to be taken in the knowledge of their impacts over the lifecycle of the facility This work presents a detailed offshore model developed to assess the lifecycle impacts of changes to an offshore oil and gas facility design, with specific emphasis on facility accommodation Specific attention is paid to the facility reliability and asset management impacts of changes to the design The organic organisation - Letting people do what really needs to be done Derek Park, Consultant, Operations Excellence Ltd Our organisations are perfectly designed to give us the results we get Recognising the real value of our people Understanding how the work works Developing the organic organisation 14:45 Q&A session 15:00 Refreshments Derek Park Consultant, Operations Excellence Ltd Derek often works with front-line staff and specialises in engaging people in the process, recognising that sustainable cultural change can only happen when people are supportive and taking personal responsibility for transformation process itself. Session 4 15:30 16:30 Round-table discussions Offering delegates the opportunity to hold frank discussions involving case studies, these sessions will be led by a facilitator. Discussions will take place for a total of 60 minutes. As delegates will be invited to change tables if they wish every 30 minutes, they may sit at two different tables during the forum.
