Abstract

An innovative methodology for managing repairs in distribution networks and power supply systems for oilfield facilities is proposed in this paper. The methodology makes it possible to select optimal solutions in accordance with the priority management goal by formalizing a risk-based model for planning maintenance and repair (M&R) of electrical equipment with a "condition-based maintenance" strategy. One of the main options in the complex of M&R management tasks is an adaptive model of the technological map for the repairs of power facilities, formed in compliance with a number of key principles. The developed model allows you to optimize the volume and complexity of repairs of electrical equipment of a certain type based on the minimum composition of technological operations necessary to eliminate the identified defects. Detection of defects in electrical equipment is achieved by using methods of technical diagnostics and non-destructive testing. In this case, each of the defects is recorded in the defect statement for the object, with the determination of the degree of criticality and fixing a specific type of corrective action. Optimal prioritization of electrical equipment repairs is performed in accordance with the minimum risk function under current restrictions on reliability (an equipment technical condition index) and available resources (total maintenance costs). The originality of the implementation of a key risk event – a power supply failure of an oilfield facility provides calculating the probability and severity of the consequences of an electrical equipment failure taking into account its technical condition and features of the power supply scheme. The given example illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach and emphasizes the validity of optimal decisions. The key components of the developed methodology have found practical application in the conditions of real operation of the equipment of oilfield facilities.
