Abstract
Goliat is an offshore oil field, operated by Vår Energi, in the Norwegian sector of the Barents Sea. The Arctic is considered environmentally sensitive and continued focus on safety is of utmost importance. The Goliat field has implemented a state-of-the-art web-based barrier status panel (BSP) for real-time status monitoring of technical safety-related equipment on the facility. Data is collected from the computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) and the safety and automation system (SAS) to provide operations an in-depth understanding of the risk picture on the facility. Since its roll-out in the summer of 2018, the BSP has been in use offshore, enabling operations to apply a risk-based approach to prioritize and execute maintenance work. This paper presents the BSP as a tool and reflects on the experience and learning gained from first-hand implementation of the same.
