Abstract

Factors in Turnaround Refinery (TAR) Project Management Process

Highlights

  • Maintenance of production facilities with the minimum budget and with as many demands for the quality of the performed works carried out is a collection of complex activities of several different disciplines that often overlap

  • The maintenance of refinery plants is based on multidisciplinarity that must be implemented through a quality management system at all levels of maintenance management

  • The purpose of the research is to scientifically identify the factors in turnaround refinery project management process, which can result in greater performance of such projects in practice and a greater level of relevance in the Tehnički vjesnik 27, 5(2020), 1367-1377 scientific field of managing complex maintenance projects

Summary

Introduction

Maintenance of production facilities with the minimum budget and with as many demands for the quality of the performed works carried out is a collection of complex activities of several different disciplines that often overlap. With regard to the aspect of refinery plants maintenance, the most significant undertaking is the turnaround (TAR) carried out through a project task with a long duration of planning and a very short duration of realisation period, which makes it one of the most complex maintenance projects in general. Turnaround is the most significant planned periodic halt in which the most important planned maintenance activities are carried out in the form of a project task. The process industry, such as oil refining, which is designed with the requirements of continuous work and with the greatest mechanical availability, requires that halts must be minimal and as planned as possible. Available literature deals with the subject in the field of project management, quality and maintenance, but very rarely all three scientific disciplines are united in the TAR project research
