Facility Maintenance
Use this job to schedule maintenance for a given facility. Facilities subject to maintenance stop processing fluids and incurring OpEx (other than the OpEx defined for the maintenance job itself) until this job ends.
- Stop production while subject to intervention: Uncheck this option to let the facility continue processing normally (and having OpEx) even during the maintenance period. In this case the only effect of the job is to allocate maintenance costs and resource requirements.
Maintenance vs. Downtime
Compare a Facility Maintenance job with the Downtime input you can enter when defining a facility in the Facility Operation Options: the Maintenance job may be regarded as a 100% downtime while the job lasts, without incurring OpEx. See further under Downtime Simulation.
