Following incidents in industry there has been a renewed focus on asset integrity and process safety (AI-PS) in industry. Within Shell a new standard was issued setting out the AI-PS requirements for sites. The implementation of these requirements covers not only plant integrity, safe operations, process safety management and reliability but also changes in behaviour and culture. Learning from Shell’s upstream and downstream operations a framework was put together, named Gas-GAME (Global Asset Management Excellence for Gas Plants). Gas-GAME helps sites to implement the new AI-PS requirements. It aligns processes, people and tools to deliver top quartile performance w.r.t. AI-PS. The improvement program covers areas like competency framework, maintenance execution, equipment integrity (pressurized and electrical) , reliability centred maintenance, ensure safe production, site management systems, instrumented protective functions, asset information management and alike.
