A method for enhancing a LNG production train that includes connected train components. The method may include steps of: constructing an integrated surveillance system for monitoring operation of the train components; using the integrated surveillance system to measure and record operational data and event data related to, respectively, the operation and a failure event of the train components over a historical operating period; performing a correlation analysis that calculates a correlation between the occurrences of the failure event and the operational data; given results of the correlation analysis, deriving a prognostic rule that indicates a likelihood of the failure event occurring based on values of the operating parameters of the operational data; applying the prognostic rule to current values of the operating parameters and determining therefrom the likelihood of the failure event occurring; determining an advisory related to the determined likelihood of the failure event occurring; and issuing the advisory.
