Abstract

Maintaining the asset in the industry today is becoming increasingly critical, which is particularly true for the capital-intensive process industry (oil sector) in Libya. The purpose of this paper is to select or extract the key performance indicators (KPI’s) that can be used for describing the maintenance work in the plant and evaluate its effectiveness. It is believed that KPI’s are useful for managing the maintenance function, however currently there are no standardized KPI’s available for assessing maintenance performance.

The selected KPI’s are tested and analyzed through a case study carried out in one of the major oil companies, from which the input data are collected to represent the most capital - intensive process industry. The results show that the average of breakdown maintenance represents 31% and the average cost of preventive maintenance is equal to 44 % of the total maintenance costs with a labor productivity of 98% during the studied period.

It is also noticed that the company is highly considering and remain using the contractor's requirements and recommendations for most of the critical equipment, with regard to the type of maintenance, spare parts, maintenance work execution and any other technical assistance. This prevents the company from having to have an inline maintenance control program for budget,
