PLASMA
Plant Simulation using Monte Carlo and Analytical Techniques

Reliability, Availability &Maintainability (RAM) analysis

Over the past ten years Grapheme has established an extensive
reliability and availability capability producing added value to a
wide rage of project areas.
. RAM analysis has been widely used by Grapheme to enable
operators to evolve production solutions which minimize impact
on revenue and expenditure. RAM analysis provides a valuable
design review technique to the following;
- Comparing alternative design options
- Establishing performance targets
- Evaluating the potential effects of design changes
