Ensure smooth, efficient site start-up

When we take charge of a site’s startup, our mission is to guarantee a smooth and efficient production launch, ensuring that your site runs optimally from day one.

We start with a complete check of all installed systems and equipment, ensuring that every component is correctly configured and ready for use. This includes validating electrical connections, calibrating measuring instruments, and confirming that all control loops are working as intended.

CIRA site start-up, step by step

1. Calibration and functional testing01

Calibration and functional testing

Functional testing verifies that every component or system in a plant, unit or skid is operating correctly. Conducted in conjunction with design engineers or operators, these tests involve creating every conceivable operational condition and ensuring that equipment reacts as expected, even under extreme conditions. They also identify and correct unexpected behavior, such as an unexpected valve opening, to ensure system reliability.

Our priorities are compliance with standardized procedures, and accurate documentation of results. For functional testing, we simulate real-life operating conditions to verify all possible usage scenarios, and document results to ensure traceability and compliance with technical specifications.

2. On-call duty 3x8h - 2x8h02

On-call duty 3x8h – 2x8h

On-call means ensuring that technical staff are always available to intervene rapidly in the event of a problem or breakdown, on or off working days and hours. This ensures continuity of operations and minimizes interruptions.

We work 3x8h and 2x8h shifts to ensure that our on-site services are available for the full duration of operations, particularly during site shutdowns and restarts, which can take place over a relatively long continuous period, but are strategic in terms of productivity and safety.

Our priorities are absolute compliance with regulations, to guarantee our customers and employees the best possible availability and working conditions.

3. Training03

Training

Industrial instrumentation training aims to enhance technical skills and optimize equipment operation. This includes teaching the fundamental and advanced principles of instrumentation, providing practical advice on the use and maintenance of equipment, and ensuring optimum use of systems.

Our priorities are the adaptability and relevance of training programs to meet the needs of industrial instrumentation professions and the specificities of different industries. Clear documentation and well-defined assessment procedures are developed.

CIRA is at the heart of energy, instrumentation and measurement, today and tomorrow.
