Performance Based Testing in Use at Russian Facilities for System Improvement and Operations Assurance
Integration of MPC and A systems at Russian facilities has moved beyond the project end dates and the systems have been operational for some time at a number of Russian sites. At some of these sites, system of performance testing is resulting in data that is being analyzed to determine the health and operability of the system. Naturally, as the systems are young, a number of operational problems are being discovered and solved by Russian scientists and technicians. This paper explains the performance testing program including the types of systems being analyzed. It also discusses the tools and process used to analyze the data and the actions taken. It will discuss the organizations that support this activity and their success in establishing this function at the referenced sites.
