Oil and Gas Companies Prefer TabWare CMMS/EAM

Greenville, SC (PRWEB) May 31, 2012

AssetPoint’s TabWare CMMS/EAM (Computerized Maintenance Management System / Enterprise Asset Management) has achieved vast success in the Oil and Gas industry, with an impressive list of customers. Two recent examples include: Whiting Petroleum and Wyoming Refining. New customers are choosing TabWare because it is easy to learn and easy to use for the maintenance team leading to rapid user adoption and maximized wrench-time, minimized keyboard-time and improved regulatory and safety compliance. TabWare provides robust functionality specific to the Oil and Gas industry and its stringent regulations, and it helps exploration, drilling and refining companies maximize asset performance, increase uptime, and control costs, while facilitating regulatory compliance. TabWare was designed by maintenance professionals (whose roots were in the oil and gas industry) for maintenance professionals so it is easy to learn and easy to use, leading to rapid user adoption of the solution.

AssetPoint Vice President of Solutions Management Jay Ratliff said, “The oil and gas industry is constantly challenged with effectively maximizing asset performance, increasing uptime, controlling costs while at the same time maintaining high environmental and safety standards. Drilling and exploration operations have additional concerns due to their need to manage movable assets and supporting inventory, further complicating equipment tracking and maintenance. AssetPoint, in partnership with their Oil & Gas Drilling and Exploration customers, continues to provide specific functionality addressing the complex asset management needs of this industry. TabWare offers a robust solution that captures necessary asset data, manages maintenance activities and approvals for all asset transfers (including rig to rig, rig to yard, rig to vendor, and vendor to rig), while maintaining asset visibility, detailed history including location, work orders and current status. TabWare includes detailed tracking of rig cycle time with cascading metering and a parent/child relationship of all assets to ensure required inspections and maintenance is performed based on operating days as well as calendar days. TabWare also tracks make/model variations of all tubular inventory such as drill pipe, collars, and historical maintenance activity and costs.”

He continued, “Additionally, refineries, due to the high cost of downtime, cannot afford unplanned outages, and strive to manage planned shutdown projects with the least amount of time and cost. TabWare assists refinery operations in dealing with process safety management issues by delivering the functionality specific to the stringent regulatory requirements which refineries now face.”
