Preventative Maintenance for Oil & Gas, Manufacturing, and Commercial Facilities

Preventative maintenance prevents failures from occurring on your job site. There are many different forms of preventative maintenance; however, the primary reason to conduct preventative maintenance is to maximize the value of your assets through the appropriate maintenance planning. This will ensure that your business or facility doesn’t lose out on productivity with costly shut downs.

Why You Need Preventative Maintenance

Preventative maintenance is the most critical part of a maintenance program in a plant, and it is the only way to ensure the most reliability.

Preventative maintenance leads to cost savings in the long run, as equipment is regularly checked for wear and tear. When facilities and equipment are left without regular, preventative maintenance, it can lead to shut downs, larger repairs, and injuries. Maintenance programs can take time to implement, but when done so correctly it will reduce failures and downtime, extend the lifespan of your equipment, reduce risks of harm to employees, and save you money in the long run.

We can perform preventative maintenance for a wide variety of Industries. The primary industries we serve are the oil and gas industry, manufacturing plants, and commercial facilities. We also have experience working with food manufacturing facilities and hospitals, and understand the specific requirements for these industries.

Types of Preventative Maintenance

There is no limit to the kind of preventative maintenance we provide. We utilize not only preventative maintenance but also predictive maintenance. We can help your facility build a complete maintenance program based around preventive and predictive maintenance. Our planning and execution programs include:

  • Condition monitoring
  • Time and usage based maintenance
  • Failure based maintenance
  • Criticality analysis
  • Failure root cause analysis


Common maintenance includes equipment alignments, belt shafts, inspections, and lubrication changes. Much like preventative maintenance for a vehicle, facilities need fluids and lubricants replaced, belts and materials aligned and potentially repaired, as well as general inspections to ensure nothing has gone awry. The construction of facilities will usually require precise installation and inspection of equipment. Improper alignments can be the cause or exacerbate a large array of issues that are found within plant equipment.
