Field execution followed a set sequence. First, *temporary* cables were tagged. Then the existing cables were disconnected and the old panels dismantled, followed by installation of the new panels. Once the panels were in place, the cables were terminated according to the *I/O list* drawings. The work ended with signal validation through a *loop check* together with the instrumentation team, and operational handover through the *Site Acceptance Test* (SAT). **Challenges** - **Risk of I/O mismatch:** Dismantling old panels and re-terminating carries a high risk of swapped cables, lost cable identity, or *wiring* errors, which could have serious consequences for the refinery control system. - **Cut-over time:** The transition from disconnecting cables and *dismantling* panels to having the new panel ready for use had to be managed tightly in time, to avoid long *downtime* in the KPC, RFCC, and IGB areas. - **Field signal synchronization:** Making sure the field instruments communicate correctly with the new control panel was often held back by the condition of the existing cables and instruments, which are old. **Solutions** - **Strict tagging procedure:** A thorough and orderly *temporary cable tagging* procedure was carried out before the cables were disconnected. This gave every cable a clear identity when it was terminated again at the new panel. - **Work based on the I/O list:** The latest *I/O list* drawing was the single source of truth for technicians during termination, to ensure 100% accuracy. - **Cross-discipline collaboration:** The instrumentation team worked side by side with us during the *loop check*. This sped up *troubleshooting* whenever a signal anomaly appeared before the SAT stage. **Lessons learned** - Spending more time on early preparation, especially *cable tagging* and documentation of the existing cables, sped up the installation phase and kept *rework* during termination to a minimum. - Involving the instrumentation team directly from the *loop check* phase is essential. Good communication between field teams meant every *punchlist* item was closed quickly, so the *Site Acceptance Test* (SAT) could be approved without obstacles. ## Contact - Company: PT Citia Engineering Indonesia - Email: services@citiaengineering.com - Telephone: +62 21 278 20286 - Office: Jl.
