According to the company’s website news release on May 4, 2023, in line with global best practices and its commitment to upholding high maintenance standards at its plants, Yansab has successfully undertaken a major turnaround in full compliance with the company’s strict health, safety and reliability protocols.
During the mega 52-day turnaround, Yansab, a manufacturing affiliate of SABIC, carried out critical asset-integrity inspections and repairs which are critical for the safety and integrity of its plants to ensure long-term safe and sustainable operations.
Commenting on this landmark maintenance exercise carried out for the first time on such a large scale since Yansab began commercial operations in 2010, Mohammed Ali Bazaid, CEO, said, “Yansab has invested considerable amount of time and effort in planning, preparing and implementing this essential turnaround. With over 5 million working hours spent in this effort, involving more than 10,000 workers during peak times that included a large number of local and international contractors, the maintenance program was concluded safely and successfully as planned.”
He added, “We have always been committed to living up to our Environmental, Health, and Safety principles. In fact, we were recognized for this commitment when we recently received the 2022 Energy Management Insight Award. We are now even aspiring to reduce our CO2 emissions at least by 20% by 2030 as aligned with the Saudi Green Initiative.”
The turnaround was timed in accordance with a set of data that also took into account global price fluctuations for end products. During this phase, the company implemented new projects aimed at enhancing safety, improving plant reliability and efficiency, and future-proof its assets.
