Preventative Maintenance and Reliability Study for the Central Heating and Power Plant at Fort Wainwright, Alaska
Abstract
The Technology Requirements Study for a new Central Heating and Power Plant (CHPP) at Fort Wainwright, Alaska (FWA) (Vavrin et al. 2006) recommended that if the option for a new CHPP were to be pursued, among the tasks suggested for further analysis was to determine predictive maintenance requirements and new technologies for the existing plant. This study was undertaken to develop a Preventative Maintenance (PM) assessment that includes a maintenance program overview for the major systems in the existing CHPP. The assessment entailed: (1) an identification of shortcomings and deficiencies of existing procedures and processes, (2) recommendations to overcome shortcomings and deficiencies, (3) development of a maintenance schedule, (4) development of an estimate of staffing requirements, and (5) development of a budget estimate for execution of the recommended PM program with breakout for costs, detailed annually for a period of 25 years. This study also identified, prioritized, and separately broke out new technologies and associated costs that would significantly improve the reliability of the existing CHPP.
