Análisis de la confiabilidad operacional en el sistema de inyección continua de químicos para los procesos de producción de petróleo en la Estación Secoya del activo Libertador Bloque 57 de Petroamazonas EP.

Abstract

The objective of this investigation is to analyze the operational reliability of the continuous injection system of chemical at the Secoya process plant and its oil producing wells. Secoya is part of the asset Liberator Block 57 of Petroamazonas EP, located in the Amazon región of Ecuador, Sucumbios province, is geographically located in a straight line with Quito between latitudes 00º 06’00 “N, 00º 04’ “S ang lengths 76º 33’ 00” E and 76º 35’29.65” W. In order to reach the goal of the investigation, the methologies proposed by Reliability Centered Manintenance were used, evaluation of criteria in the norm SAE JA 1011, elaboration of the form for registration of events and faults, evaluation of 32 systems of injections of chemical in Wells, these statistical results allowed to create a Pareto diagram, where 18 systems are considered as viatl ones and 14 systems as trival ones, from these results, maintenance indicators are determined, indicators such as the MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure), MTTR (Mean Time Total Reparation), availability and reliability of these sytems, between 14 and 92%, in a 729-hours operation period. Fort the improvement of the operational reliability of an asset, the determination and application of world-class indicators is recommended, as well as to pay attention to the behavior of the human being in the operation of any company is vital and important wich is known as Human Reliability.
