Zest Automation has successfully completed a challenging shutdown for an offshore oil platform in Bohai Bay, China. The shutdown involved the cold cutover of the Emergency Shutdown System (ESD), executed in a constrained timeframe in order to minimise downtime. The success of this project can be attributed to careful and meticulous planning, a close working relationship with the customer and a flexible, proactive engineering team.
Zest delivered true value to the customer by minimising their offshore footprint and personnel on board, during a busy shutdown. Additionally, the shutdown scope was completed with no HSE issues and the new system started up without incident.
