Sim Energy - About Sim Energy

Condition-Based Monitoring or Condition-Based Maintenance as it is sometimes known consists of a number of well established inspection tasks carried out using some form of objective measuring instrument.

The rationale of CBM is to carry out performance measurement tasks while the asset is still in use and using the minimum of intrusiveness. This methodology achieves the following outcomes:

Reduced plant down-time
Minimalisation of intrusiveness and subsequent introduced failures
Up-skilling of maintenance technicians
Reduced inspection duration

CBM is most cost-effectively delivered once the maintenance requirements have been properly understood through an RCM process although quick fixes are often possible on simple pieces of equipment.

Sim Energy consultants have been involved in implementing various CBM technologies and maintenance programmes and have used these for:

Improvement in equipment performance
Reduction in maintenance duration
Reduction in introduced failures
Improvement in energy efficiency

Through implementation of CBM we have achieved up to 75% reductions in maintenance resource requirements and seen CBM equipment pay for itself within 3 months.
