Can we compromise SAFETY to drive Productivity ?
CASE STUDY : Safety. Productivity. Profitability.
Can operators have the best of both worlds – to reduce Risk and
increase Profitability ?

Safety is Paramount
- Your Business is committed to Safety

Profitability is equally important !
- Your business depends on productivity
The cost of safety is tied directly to the profits of a company.
If it is an unsafe company - almost certainly pay out more in
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) fines, lawsuits
and attorney's fees and also for increased insurance premiums than
needed.
All of these payments directly affect the bottom line.
Owners / Operators constantly balancing between increase
profitability i.e. driving up plant productivity and yet not compromising
safety !
Today , every safety case must drive profitability.
4
Initial process design
Selection of reliable equipment
Implementation of the most efficient maintenance routines
What drives plant productivity and profitability?
5
Market demands & price level
Constant plant uptime
Controlling operating costs
Efficient operations
What drives plant productivity and profitability?
6
How can a safety system
improve your plant
productivity?
7
An “ideal” safety system must never be the cause of a
shutdown – for ANY reason.
FPSO Owners / Operators
become accustomed to
unnecessary shutdowns
as a result of
Spurious trips
Periodic proof tests
Hardware and software upgrades
Common cause failures
8
Save $$$ - only buy what is needed
-> system must be scalable
Save $$$ - reduce lifecycle costs
- > operating Nonstop
Save engineering $$$
- > using a flexible, intuitive and easy
adaptable platform
Already, FPSO Owner‟s expects suppliers to consider
Capital Cost and Operational Expense. Why?
9
What‟s needed NOW and in the future?
A safety system that will deliver
100% availability and never
affects plant uptime.
10
A safety system that will help you
to generate more revenue.
What‟s needed NOW and in the future?
11
What‟s needed?
A safety system which supports a
business case to reduce
PURCHASE COST ( CAPEX )
and
OPERATIONAL EXPENSES
(OPEX )
12
HIMA understands what is needed in the Future
Introducing HIMax:
The first safety system that improves
productivity and profit.

Improve business
performance

Why HIMax ? – Save you $$$$
Availability - 100% system availability for the life cycle of your
project
Flexibility - 100% on-line hardware, software and operating
system changes -> nonstop …no need to shutdown the plant
anymore !
Performance – Unrivaled performances with the latest state of the
art technology

The XMR® difference
XMR®:
Moving beyond TMR fault tolerance
and functionality
16
Never need to turn system off – for the life of the
plant
100% system and plant availability through:
Availability – HIMax stays on NON STOP
What is the financial impact of
an unwanted plant shutdown?
Perform mandatory On-line proof testing.
Allows user to carry out ANY Modification ONLINE when
plant is in operation :
- Operating System Upgrades
- Add or delete of ANY parts of User Program
- Add or delete of Communication Protocols
- Add or delete of CPU Modules
- Add or delete of IO modules
- Add or delete entire hardware, racks and cabinets
No-single-point-of-failure architecture design.
17
The XMR advantage
Always SIL 3 – no restrictions even in “simplex” configuration
Scalable availability with more levels of fault tolerance than any other architecture
CPU and I/O support 4-3-2-1 operation without “degraded” safety or time limits
Spurious trips eliminated
Highest availability – even with very long MTTR

Safety architecture for process
facilities which do not need

Most widely used safety architecture
providing absolute safety and
availability.

Traditional architecture (TMR) which
can provide similar safety and
availability characteristics as X=2. For
customers who „require‟ TMR

NONSTOP advantage
Typical plant experiences several days lost production over its lifetime due to
unplanned downtime to maintain SIS
HIMax gives you that production, revenue and PROFIT back
22
A system that future-proofs your initial investment:
Fully on-line expandable.
Buy only what is required at the start of the
project – CAPEX savings.
Expand your system as your plant or project
grows
Replace modules, software and OS on-line.
Flexibility - unrestricted on-line changes
What is the financial benefit
from the ability to make
unlimited on-line changes?
