eVision’s digital Control of Work software reaches major milestone with global implementation of Permit Vision on all Total’s E&P sites and successful go-live on CLOV

As part of the global contract for the implementation of Permit Vision across all Total’s E&P sites, eVision has successfully deployed Permit Vision on Total’s CLOV FPSO. The Floating Production Storage and Offloading vessel has a capacity of producing 160,000 barrels per day and is located in the Cravo, Lirio, Orquidea and Violeta fields, 140 kilometres off the coast of Angola. Permit Vision allows for complete control of all permit activities and improves workers’ efficiency.

After Permit Vision was deployed on CLOV, it was run in parallel with the old system for a month. On 26 of July, Total switched over fully to eVision’s digital Control of Work system. Prior to the go-live, eVision’s Subject Matter Experts (SME), provided classroom-based training to all 150 users, followed by on-site and go-live support. This combination of training and on-site support ensures maximum user adoption and effectiveness of the system. During the go-live, a team consisting of CLOV super users, Total project resources and eVision SMEs were onsite and contributed to a successful go-live.

The agreement between Total and eVision for the global implementation of Permit Vision across Total’s E&P was signed in November 2015. The project award followed a successful pilot project that entailed the implementation of digital permit to work (Permit Vision) software across Total Netherlands’ North Sea assets.

Total E&P had high requirements on safety, and the implementation of high standards and fit-for-purpose technologies to their facilities. It required a single, optimal standard for their permit-to-work, isolation management, and risk assessment procedures, which, at the same time, allowed for compliance to local and affiliate-specific requirements to be incorporated. Using a single process for all assets means the solution offers more control, while information and knowledge can be shared across platforms and sites. This simplifies the decision-making processes in the organisation, creating efficiencies for higher productivity.

The go-live of CLOV is a major milestone in the project, says Simon Kennedy, eVision Chief Operating Officer: “After a long partnership with Total in the North Sea, we are delighted with the successful go-live of Permit Vision at Total’s flagship CLOV FPSO. This major milestone marks the start of the global rollout of Permit Vision at Total, and I look forward to many more successful go-lives in the coming months as the rollout progresses.”

Total expects a series of benefits to all operations across our E&P Branch after the implementation of Permit Vision says Sylvain Peytier, Field Operations Manager at Total E&P: “Using one digital system that combines all permitting, risk assessment, and isolations processes provides our frontline personnel with better, more easily accessible, and more up to date information. This allows them better access and overview, leading to significantly increased Hands on Tool Time. Rolling out eVision’s software across all assets, we expect both major harmonization of processes and safety benefits.”

The global rollout of Permit Vision across all Total’s E&P sites covers more than 26 Assets. New assets will be rolled out continuously over the upcoming year, starting with three additional assets to go live in Angola.
