De-commissioning Procedures

Creating decommissioning procedures is critical because it ensures the safe, efficient, and compliant retirement of equipment, systems, or facilities at the end of their lifecycle, minimizing risks and liabilities. These procedures detail steps like disposing of hazardous materials, restoring mechanical interfaces to their original condition, removing electrical infrastructure that powered the equipment, ensuring we meet regulatory requirements and ensuring it is all done while protecting the workers. Well-defined protocols also recover value from salvageable parts and document the process for audits. By planning the endgame, we close projects and operations responsibly, reduce future headaches, and uphold our commitment to safety and stewardship.
