Types of Plant Shutdowns

1. Planned Shutdowns: These are scheduled shutdowns that are part of routine maintenance or operational cycles. Planned shutdowns are typically less disruptive and give the plant ample time to prepare for the necessary work.
2. Unplanned Shutdowns: Also known as emergency shutdowns, these occur due to equipment failures, safety concerns, or unforeseen issues. They require immediate action and can lead to longer downtimes, which may impact production.

3. Turnaround Shutdowns: These are comprehensive, large-scale maintenance events that typically happen every few years. They involve a full review of the plant’s equipment, often requiring extended downtime (sometimes weeks or even months) to carry out major repairs, replacements, or upgrades.
