Valero Energy Corporation, the largest refiner in North America, has signed a contract with SKF for integrated maintenance services (IMS) at its Valero Paulsboro Refinery in Greenwich Township, NJ.
Valero’s objectives are to reduce the cost of spare parts for pump repairs and the associated inventory and carrying costs, as well as increasing pump availability and uptime and freeing company engineering resources. SKF will staff the Paulsboro Refinery on-site with one full-time reliability engineer and two full-time reliability technicians. SKF will also provide “on-demand” resources for reliability-related projects, such as training, engineering, root cause failure analysis, and reliability centered maintenance, and will supply condition monitoring hardware and software technology.
