Solid Base

摘要

A petroleum and petrochemical plant consists of equipment such as pumps, valves, motors, flanges, pipes, turbines, tanks and pressure vessels. Typically, such plants rely on a global supplier base to procure such equipment. Having a global supplier base minimizes supply chain risks due to, for example, natural calamities and political disturbances, and helps to optimize cost while adhering to the highest standards of quality and delivery requirements. For petroleum and petrochemical plants, the operation's integrity, health, safety and environment are some of most important success factors. It's therefore necessary that suppliers of complex and critical equipment-for example, high-pressure and temperature-pressure vessels-are selected and added to the supplier base through a well-structured and rigorous assessment process.
