FPSO Case Study: SafeEx Cloud Assessment by Haztech Solutions

Haztech Solutions conducted an independent assessment of SafeEx Cloud following its implementation on an FPSO operated by a major Australian resource company.

Summary

An FPSO operated by a major Australian resource company introduced SafeEx Cloud as part of its ongoing approach to managing Ex inspection and reporting activities in an offshore environment. Haztech Solutions subsequently carried out an independent assessment of how the platform was used in practice, focusing on inspection workflows, reporting consistency, and visibility of inspection data across offshore and onshore teams.

The Challenge

The FPSO expects to achieve a full 3-year inspection cycle and ensure compliance is maintained. Meeting their goals requires efficiency. However, their process was inefficient, provided little transparency, and had long lead times from performing the inspection to reporting. These challenges caused concerns about Ex integrity and uncertainty in meeting their goals. 

A more efficient approach to utilising technology (SafeEx Cloud Solution) was implemented to meet the client’s requirements and cope with the fast-evolving industry.

The Solution

The digital EEHA management system, SafeEx Cloud, was rolled out aboard the FPSO in late 2017. Existing Ex Register and other supporting documentation (certificates of conformity, classification drawings, data sheets etc.) were uploaded into the selected system.
FPSO’s criteria for SafeEx Cloud
