Root cause analysis for oil and gas
Critical rotating equipment fails rarely but expensively, and spare units can hide repeat problems. RapidRCA gives each failure a structured analysis, and Repeat Finder can look across a longer period to show what keeps coming back.
Typical problems
- Rotating equipment failures on pumps and compressors
- Standby equipment hiding repeat problems
- A regulated setting that needs a clear record
- Long gaps between repeats make patterns hard to see
How RapidRCA helps
- Repeat Finder can look back over many months, and group equipment by tag prefix.
- Repeat Finder sorts your work orders by cause and ranks what keeps repeating by how often it repeats and how much downtime it causes.
- Build a 5 Whys and fishbone from a short description, photo or file in minutes.
- Give every action an owner, a due date and a status, and track it until it is closed.
Try it with an example
