Reliability Challenges Across Chemical Operations

Chemical processing facilities must maintain safe, compliant, and cost-effective production while protecting critical assets in demanding operating environments. Reliability gaps can increase energy waste, unplanned downtime, fire and explosion risk, maintenance expense, and pressure on capital budgets.

  • High asset risk when maintenance is not aligned to failure modes and operating context.
  • Electrical safety and arc flash hazards that require disciplined risk management.
  • Pressure to improve sustainability, reduce waste, and lower energy consumption.
  • Production losses when compressors, pumps, turbines, engines, or gearboxes underperform
  • Aging rotating equipment and lubrication challenges that can shorten asset life.

FEATURED CASE STUDY

From Reactive Maintenance to Proactive Asset Health Management

A U.S. chemical manufacturer worked with Allied Reliability to address reduced CO₂ compressor output and broader rotating equipment reliability issues. Allied guided the organization through a two-year Reliability Journey focused on root cause analysis, asset health monitoring, maintenance planning, governance, change management, and skills development.

Identified the root cause of failing equipment and broader reliability gaps, including unplanned downtime, unclear roles, and knowledge gaps.

Developed a comprehensive maintenance plan for rotating equipment, including asset health monitoring and a Bad Actors program

Supported implementation through governance, change management, precision skills training, and action item review meetings.

Completed 91% of action items to date and generated approximately $3.1 million in savings from the Bad Actors program alone.
