Abstract

Reliability, availability, and maintainability (RAM) of quay cranes (QCs) are essential for an effective port operation. This study estimates operational RAM of QCs using the Stochastic Petri Net (SPN) modelling. Asset Performance Assessment (APA) was performed to conduct the study by a SPN model. Based on the operation and maintenance data, probability distributions of Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) and Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) is determined by Goodness of Fit Test of Anderson Darling. Subsequently, these distributions are applied in APA to determine the frequencies of failure/breakdowns, duration of downtimes, availability, and reliability with the assistance of the SPN model and Monte Carlo Simulation. The availability of the analysed QC is 0.97 or 97%. The results of this work are verified by the comparison with historical data. The outcomes of this paper contribute to reliability, availability, maintainability, and risk management of QCs.
