Inspection Specification & Scope Development

Development of inspection specifications, scope documents, and inspection procedures for pressure equipment, piping, and structural assets — ensuring that inspection activities are technically justified, risk-informed, and aligned with applicable codes.

Effective inspection depends on clearly defined scope, appropriate methods, and technically sound acceptance criteria. TES Canada develops inspection specifications and scope documents that translate integrity management requirements, RBI priorities, and damage mechanism assessments into practical inspection instructions for field execution.

Services include development of equipment-specific and system-level inspection scope documents, selection of inspection methods appropriate to the damage mechanisms and equipment types involved, definition of coverage requirements and acceptance criteria, and preparation of inspection procedures where specialised methods or techniques are required. TES Canada ensures that inspection specifications are aligned with applicable codes — including API 510, API 570, API 653, and relevant NDE standards — and reflect current understanding of the equipment's damage threats and condition.

The output provides inspection teams with clear, actionable instructions that support consistent inspection quality, defensible inspection records, and effective use of inspection resources. Inspection scope documents integrate with the facility's broader inspection planning, turnaround preparation, and integrity management activities.
