Safer Offshore Operations with Smart Maintenance

How Aker BP uses real-time CBM to reduce downtime, risk, and failures offshore

Condition Based Maintenance at Aker BP: Unlocking Safer, Smarter Offshore Operations

Aker BP is transforming offshore maintenance operations through the implementation of Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) strategies supported by Honeywell Forge Asset Performance Management.

By leveraging real-time equipment monitoring and predictive analytics, Aker BP is improving operational visibility, enhancing worker safety, and reducing unnecessary maintenance activities across offshore assets on the Norwegian Continental Shelf.

Traditional maintenance programs often rely on scheduled inspections or reactive maintenance approaches. Condition Based Maintenance enables operators to continuously assess equipment health and prioritize maintenance activities based on actual operating conditions and performance data.

The approach helps organizations:

• Improve operational reliability through continuous asset monitoring
• Reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance costs
• Enhance worker safety by minimizing unnecessary field inspections
• Support more efficient maintenance planning and execution
• Increase visibility into offshore asset performance

Using Honeywell Forge Asset Performance Management, Aker BP is able to identify anomalies earlier, optimize maintenance workflows, and make more informed operational decisions.

The case study highlights how digital technologies and advanced asset performance strategies are helping offshore operators modernize maintenance operations while supporting safer, smarter and more efficient production environments.
