In Fort Mcmurray, Alberta, APM Canada mobilized at Heartland Muskeg River for a hot gas path inspection. The outage lasted from March 27, 2024 until April 15th, 2024 and ended with approximately 4,000 manhours completed with ZERO recordable injuries or quality issues! The team’s dedication to the Live Outage initiative impressed the customer and aided their success.

The Live Outage initiative transitioned jobsites from paper and extensive behind the scenes preparations in an office to using tablets, productivity tooling, and technology on deck. This allows the jobsite team to be more responsive to changes that arise during an outage. Throughout the course of this outage, there were new sequencing changes that the team onsite had to work through, but by embracing the live outage they were able to impress the customer with their ability to adapt to new changes!

Here are some quotes from the customer:

Leading the outage of 40 total craftspeople was the Dayshift APM Superintendent, Tim Fisher, and the Nightshift APM Superintendent, Brad Reimer. We’d also like to recognize our APM Canada EHS Professionals, Neil Hamilton (dayshift) and Brendon Hewer (nightshift), as well as the rest of the APM Canada Team for their commitment to the Live Outage initiatives that are vital to the success of these programs. They followed sequencing and used Live Outage to its fullest capabilities because of their investment to reach the ultimate goal of an outage – 0 injuries, 0 quality issues, and a satisfied customer.
