Modernising Oil Rig Maintenance with Fusion Maintenance Cloud

Modernising Oil Rig Maintenance with Fusion Maintenance Cloud

Challenges

About the Client

The customer is a Kuwait-based oil drilling company operating multiple onshore rigs across the region, where uptime, safety, and disciplined execution are critical to daily operations. As maintenance complexity increased across rig locations, the organisation faced limited end-to-end visibility and growing reliance on manual, site-specific processes.

The customer engaged InspireXT to lead a centralised digital maintenance transformation, bringing standardisation, control, and real-time insight across rigs while improving the speed and reliability of maintenance execution.

Business Challenges

  1. Manual, site-led maintenance executions
    Paper-based and Excel-driven maintenance tracking reduced agility, increased errors, and limited standardisation across rig locations.
  2. Inconsistent preventive maintenance compliance
    The absence of a system-driven maintenance framework led to inconsistent scheduling, increasing the risk of equipment failures and downtime.
  3. Spare parts delays impacting rig uptime
    Manual warehouse requests caused delays in material availability, directly affecting maintenance turnaround times.
  4. Limited real-time operational visibility
    Leadership had limited insight into work orders, asset performance, and maintenance KPIs, restricting proactive decision-making.
  5. Operational complexity and scalability constraints
    Heavy manual coordination made it difficult to respond to ad hoc issues and scale maintenance operations efficiently.

Solution

Business Solution

  • Oracle Fusion Cloud Maintenance deployed as a central platform
    Implemented a centralised, cloud-based maintenance platform to standardise and digitise maintenance operations across rigs.
  • Automated preventive maintenance planning
    System-driven schedules ensured timely maintenance execution and reduced unplanned asset downtime.
  • Integrated work orders with inventory management
    Automated spare parts demand generation ensured faster material availability from warehouses.
  • Enabled centralised governance and control
    Single-click maintenance execution provided consistent oversight across multiple rig locations.
  • Delivered real-time operational insights
    Intelligent dashboards enabled management to monitor work orders, resource utilisation, and KPIs from a single view.
  • Online and offline execution support
    Ensured uninterrupted maintenance execution even in low-connectivity rig environments.

Results

Results and Impact

  • Standardised digital maintenance execution
    Eliminated fragmented paper- and Excel-based processes, enabling consistent maintenance execution across all rigs.
  • High-volume maintenance execution at scale
    Successfully managing 100+ work orders per month, 120 preventive maintenance schedules, 460+ work requirements, and 200+ assets per rig with improved control and reliability.
  • Reduced planning and coordination effort
    Removed manual forecasting and planning, significantly reducing coordination effort and planning delays.
  • Automated spare parts provisioning
    Improved material availability from warehouses, minimising maintenance delays and reducing rig downtime risk.
  • Real-time, single-view operational visibility
    Enabled leadership to monitor maintenance performance, asset utilisation, and KPIs across all rigs for faster, data-driven decisions.
  • Scalable foundation for expansion
    Supporting a planned rollout across 18 rigs in Kuwait, ensuring long-term operational efficiency and digital maturity.
