Rotork to provide valve maintenance at VTTI Cyprus oil terminal

VTTI, a worldwide independent provider of energy storage solutions, has awarded a client support programme (CSP) contract to Rotork for the maintenance of critical valve actuation assets at the VTTI Vasiliko oil storage terminal in Cyprus.

Approximately 400 Rotork IQ3 actuators controlled by Rotork’s Pakscan two-wire digital networks that manage the flow of media throughout the terminal have been covered on the tailor-made CSP contract.

The programme exploits the functionality of intelligent IQ3 technology with remote diagnostics and monitoring via dataloggers, enabling preventative maintenance to be organised with little or no interruption to plant operations.

The Rotork CSP involves regularly monitoring the current health and operable status of every actuator, keeping a full history of all activities performed and any parts used since the previous report.

The information is analysed to provide a breakdown of critical, medium, and low priority scheduled work and any corresponding unexpected work activities.

Analysis also provides trending of actuator availability and reliability against agreed target costs and historical operating data as compared to agreed key performance indicators.

Ongoing technical support further contributes to increased availability, reliability, and improved performance.
