Commissioning -the process

• Commissioning starts when mechanical completion is

achieved

• Mechanical completion should therefore be designed

and managed to allow commissioning to commence in

the preferred sequence

• Before the process lets focus on the definitions.

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Mechanical Completion

• Definition

– The planned completion of the work [facility]

– Built/constructed in accordance with the design requirements

– Tested in accordance with the project standards andspecifications. [ANSI, BS, ISO etc]

– Typically this testing includes:

Mechanical Completion

• Non destructive testing of welded connections

• Strength testing of pipework systems (i.e. hydrotest)

• Proof load testing of lifting equipment

• Alignment (line,level position etc) of rotating equipment

• Tests to prove correct application of painting & coatings

• Leak testing of HVAC ductwork

• Continuity, resistance and insulation testing of cables

• Calibration of instruments

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Definition Summary

• All those tests necessary to prove the work has been built and

installed ‘properly’ in accordance with the design.

Commissioning

• Definition/Understanding

– Is multi-discipline

– The first energisation of the work

– Proves the interface between equipment and system – The commissioning process satisfies 3 objectives

– 1 Proves mechanical completion

– 2 Proves the systems functionality

– 3 Is planned to ensure the project objectives are achieved

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Commissioning-the process

• Define what you want to achieve

– identify the project milestones

• occupy living quarters, run gas compression system etc

– define the systems required

• design the subsystems

– produce the plan

– integrate with the construction plan

– Produce the procedures and method statements

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Commissioning-things to avoid

• Commissioning for ‘something to do’

• Start too early!

• Interfering with construction

• Defining subsystems without sympathy for

construction or practicality.

• Commissioning work to Commission again

• Ignoring the importance of planning

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Why Bother????

• If we specify what we want then we should know what

we will get.

– The work is completed in a planned manner allowing the

overall project goals to be realised – We will get ‘buy in’ and ‘ownership’

– Defines the level of documentation records required to satisfy

the contractor, client, company and interested third parties.

– To identify construction any constraints – To ensure a realistic plan

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Output

• By stating what you want (phased handover of the

work to suit the projects ultimate objectives) and

clearly defining it. You can:

– Have confidence in the contractors plans – Plan our own work

– Be sure of the condition of the completed work

• Minimise risks in decision making

– e.g. To go offshore or not

Traditional approach

• The work is completed as and when the fabricatordecides.

• Commissioning is something that ‘others do‘ whenconstruction is complete

• Re work is a natural result of this approach

– I.e. you find problems too late

• Documentation is hap-hazard

– test sheets etc are developed on the fly.• The overall project duration will be longer thannecessary

8/11/2019 Comms 2000



Close

• Know what you want

• Specify what you want

– if you leave it to others it won’t be what you expected!

• Know what it is going to cost

• Save costs (it’s cheaper in the long run)

• Get the work completed in the way you need it!!
