The refinery at Worsley, Collie.

Operating siteOngoing maintenance

The building or project condition

Operating industrial site, maintained on a continuing basis rather than as a single project.

What FRS delivered

  • Ongoing maintenance of the passive fire systems on site

What made it difficult

  • Continuous operation, so maintenance is planned around plant availability
  • A maintained asset base that changes between visits as the site changes

What was recorded at close-out

  • Records issued each cycle
  • Certification each cycle

Most of the passive fire work on this site is not installation. It is keeping an existing asset base described accurately while the site keeps changing around it — new services run, penetrations opened for other trades, doors altered to suit a change of use.

Maintenance here means finding those changes and bringing the record back into line with what is actually installed, cycle after cycle.
