Our team works with clients to achieve design intention throughout the lifecycle of the asset, by providing a third-party, independent review of their Pipeline Integrity Management System (PIMS). This includes review of its:
- Development process - Ensure that all phases of the implementation process are included and in accordance with the PIMS development plan.
- Implementation – Confirmation that the PIMS is adopted in all levels of the organisation and includes all the critical assets to be managed by the system.
- System effectiveness – We conduct an assessment to confirm that critical assets are operated and maintained according to defined standards so that design intent and output are maintained.
- Modifications – We review any modifications required during operations, to ensure conformance and performance against existing system design criteria.
Ausenco provides operators with a multidisciplinary team that interacts with individuals from all levels of their organization to assess compliance to standards, procedures and best practices. Our team confirms that all plans and programs are followed and that critical assets are managed according to PIMS guidelines (design, operations, and maintenance processes, technologies and equipment). Our main objective is to ensure that mining processes are safe, productive, efficient and sustainable.
