Preview Questions Maintenance Planner | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: How should a maintenance procedure for a pressure vessel be developed to ensure safe operation and compliance?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By limiting the procedure to visual inspections only, without detailed operational checks

By focusing only on external maintenance tasks without considering internal safety requirements

By including inspection intervals, operational limits, and guidelines for managing pressure-related incidents

By eliminating risk assessments to reduce maintenance time

Question 2: What is the most effective method for estimating spare parts costs in a chemical plant maintenance plan?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By estimating costs based solely on supplier quotes without considering past consumption

By relying only on vendor-provided cost estimates without internal verification

By reducing the spare parts inventory to save costs and estimating based on demand spikes

By analyzing historical usage data and aligning it with maintenance schedules and critical equipment needs

Question 3: How should maintenance procedures be tailored for high-risk equipment, such as reactors or pressure vessels, in a petrochemical plant?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By simplifying the procedure to ensure quick access to critical parts

By incorporating rigorous safety checks, emergency shutdown protocols, and detailed risk mitigation steps

By omitting safety checks to reduce time spent on maintenance tasks

By focusing solely on the mechanical aspects of the equipment without considering safety

Question 4: What is the role of failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) in the development of maintenance procedures?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

FMEA is irrelevant in procedure development and only applies to the design phase

FMEA increases the complexity of procedures unnecessarily

FMEA helps identify potential failure points, allowing procedures to be developed to mitigate risks associated with those failures

FMEA should only be applied to non-critical equipment to save time

Question 5: How can a Maintenance Planner account for safety and environmental compliance in cost estimates for maintenance?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By assuming that compliance costs will be negligible and can be addressed later

By including costs for safety measures, environmental compliance procedures, and necessary protective equipment

By incorporating only the direct costs of labor and materials, ignoring compliance needs

By excluding compliance costs, as they are not directly tied to the maintenance task

Question 6: How can a Maintenance Planner ensure that preventive maintenance schedules are flexible enough to adapt to unplanned events?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By scheduling maintenance during the busiest production periods to minimize downtime

By allowing buffer periods in the schedule for unexpected repairs, and reviewing the plan periodically

By focusing only on scheduled tasks and ignoring emergency needs

By keeping the schedule rigid and not allowing for any last-minute adjustments
