Following Sulzer Wood’s previous contract as incumbent pump maintenance contractor for the Alba and Captain Assets, the new Managed Reliability Programme (MRP) contract means that Sulzer Wood is responsible for the improvement and overall reliability of all Alba, Captain and Erskine pumping equipment.

Sulzer Wood, working as part of an integrated Chevron North Sea operations team, and supported by Performance Improvement (PI) Group Ltd, is implementing a managed improvement programme involving a predictive and preventative strategy which will focus on the effectiveness of all installed pumping systems to optimise production and improve safety.

Graham Glen, General Manager of Sulzer Wood, said: “We are delighted that Chevron has chosen Sulzer Wood for this MRP contract. This is one of the first contracts of its kind in the North Sea and we look forward to delivering a new and challenging scope of work.”
