TOPICS:

  1. IT solution for risk management
  2. Risk Analysis (technical risk, politic risk, stake older risk, etc...)
  3. Change management
  4. Maintenance for Line 125/220/400 kV (the line network is coming old, and disponibility more short)
  5. What will be the future asset management challenge 
  6. Establishment of a Database under the AMforum on equipment mainly of new  technology which after installation proved to have operational and
       functional problems working under the specified conditions or even not  meeting the characteristics stated by its manufacturer such as outdoor GIS. 
    We would be in a position to add significant data on the new technology that have come with problems. Can I suggest that this be expanded to cover new generations of equipment also where the technology is not new. What I mean is that we have received new models of CBs that have performed very poorly from previously reliable manufacturers. A database listing these experiences would be beneficial to all.
  7. Experience gained on implementing communication networks including  wireless networks and protocols as the main means for protection,
       control and interlocking eliminating conventional methods in substations. How such technology could enhance the scope of Asset  Management
  8. Organization and exploitation of the field experience malfunction reports feedback.
  9. End of life of assets
  10. Compensation solution (FACTS, shunt capacitance,...).
  11. Life management: Transformer mid life refurbishment (economics and implementation)
  12. Organization of FORUM 2008
