Energy, Geothermal and Industrial Plant Operations

In energy and industrial plant operations, continuous operation, maintenance planning, and regulatory compliance are the most critical issues. Lack of digital infrastructure leads to both production loss and safety risks. This example describes the digital transformation process of an energy production plant.

Client Profile

Geothermal energy production plant. 24/7 operation, 40 employees, tracking 50+ maintenance plans annually.

Challenges Faced

• Unplanned Downtime: Equipment maintenance was performed based on failures rather than a schedule. Sudden shutdowns caused production loss.
• Regulations and Reporting: Reports required by energy market regulatory bodies were prepared manually, leading to a high risk of error.
• Energy Efficiency: The conditions under which the plant operated at optimum efficiency were not systematically monitored.

Solution Approach: Plant Management and Maintenance System

• Preventive Maintenance Planning: Equipment-based maintenance schedules, automatic work order generation, and spare parts inventory management.
• Automated Reporting: Automatic generation of reports for regulatory bodies using system data.
• Efficiency Monitoring: Real-time tracking of plant performance with sensor data, and automatic alerts in case of deviations.

Achieved Results

• Unplanned downtime decreased by 60%
• Maintenance costs decreased by 25%
• Reporting preparation time reduced from days to minutes
• Energy efficiency increased by 12%
