Development of a Reliability-Based Maintenance Model for Liquefied Natural Gas Processing FacilitiesBy Des-Wosu Azubuike George, Chimezie O’gbuta
Abstract: The operational performance of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants is significantly influenced by equipment reliability, maintenance efficiency, and failure management. This study evaluates the reliability characteristics of major LNG process units using fault tree analysis and reliability engineering techniques to improve plant availability, minimize operational losses, and reduce maintenance costs. Reliability data covering a five-year operational period were obtained from LNG plant records and supplemented through interviews with plant personnel …
