Essar Oil UK (EET Fuels) – iPlanSTO

Essar Oil UK, now operating as EET Fuels, selected IAMTech’s iPlanSTO turnaround software to replace a legacy access database and modernise its planning systems at the Stanlow Refinery—one of Europe’s most advanced refining facilities.

The Brief

Essar needed a robust and scalable solution for managing shutdowns and turnarounds. The team required seamless integration with SAP and Primavera P6, improved scope control, and a reliable way to retain historical planning data without starting from scratch.

The objective was to implement a modern digital platform that could improve maintenance and repair planning, support end-to-end turnaround execution, and centralise data across disciplines.

The Solution

IAMTech deployed iPlanSTO, delivering a structured implementation process that included the successful migration of historic norms and event data from Essar’s legacy system.

The phased configuration included detailed scope setup, material management, team structures, and the customisation of import definitions for future ERP integration. Parallel to this, integration workshops for SAP and Primavera P6 ensured the system was aligned with Essar’s broader asset management ecosystem.

Since adopting iPlanSTO, Essar has successfully delivered two major events and is actively planning four more, supported by improved coordination, data continuity, and scalable turnaround workflows.

Since adopting iPlanSTO, the team at site delivered two major events and are in the process of planning a further four.
