Scope Of Services
With increasing stringent health, safety and environmental requirements and coupled with commercial requirements of minimum downtime places significant challenge to the mechanical integrity of process equipment.
RBI is the most common study to be used as part of equipment mechanical integrity assessment. Mechanical Integrity Management (MIM) is a key element of the Process Safety Management (PSM) System.
RBI focuses on the risks caused by leakage due to material degradation of pressure vessels, pipelines, etc.
By understanding the corrosion mechanism expected with the equipment service, risk of loss of containment can be determined and an integrity management strategy can be formed.
Crude oil, natural gas, LNG, gas processing and export, oil refining, pharmaceutical plant, coal chemical processing, fertilizer and agriculture chemical processing, chemical refining, berth loading and unloading, nuclear, power plant, hazardous material storage, mining, etc.
RBI can be conducted as early as FEED (to ensure material selection for equipment is compatible with the process) periodic reviews in operational phase.
RBI has its greatest benefit when developed during design phase to ensure maximum mechanical integrity can be achieve with equipment with continuous implementation of the prescribed integrity management plan.
