TCR Engineering Services has
partnership with PP SIMTECH (UK), to provide comprehensive Risk Based
Inspection (RBI) as well as Fitness for Service (FFS) assessments.
The reliable and proven Risk based Inspection (RBI)
technology process developed by PP SIMTECH (UK), with key guidance from
API 580/581 and UK HSE, has been accepted globally as good engineering
practice by leading international companies. PP SIMTECH has successfully
implemented RBI and FFS at global majors including BP, Dow Chemicals,
GPIC, ADNOC-Fertil, Norsk Hydro, BASF, INEOS.
Risk-based
approach to inspection provides immense benefits which includes an
increase in plant availability, cost saving, minimum shutdown durations,
change in inspection strategies and intervals and improved safety
compliance. The RBI team study also improves the team working and
communication between all the departments of the plant.
PP SIMTECH uses rbiAsyst™, a fully auditable &
transparent software system to facilitate the RBI team study and
successful implementation of RBI technology process at a plant site.
The RBI team study facilitated by TCR PP SIMTECH
and rbiAsyst™ software provides plant management and operations team a
reliable method to identify and resolve complex technical issues
associated with static equipment such as reactors, furnaces, strippers,
distillation columns, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, reformers,
boilers, fired heaters along with its associated items such as
interconnected piping and storage tanks.
Reliable assessment and calculation of risk profile
of an item, based on its "active" and "potential" Damage Mechanism
ensures that the resulting inspection interval for the item is reliably
optimized in a safe and cost-effective manner.
The TCR PP SIMTECH team includes Mechanical
Engineers, Metallurgists, Corrosion Engineers, NDT Experts, RBI Experts
and Project Managers and provides services in areas like RBI (API
580/581), Fitness-For-Service (API 579), Material Damage Mechanisms
Assessment, Metallurgical Investigation & Failure Analysis and
In-service Inspection.
Our approach to
risk-based inspection
is based on a strong co-operation between the plant personnel and TCR PP SIMTECH experts.
