RBI Program Development

Development of structured risk-based inspection programs aligned with API 580/581 methodology, enabling operators to prioritize inspection resources based on assessed risk to fixed equipment and piping systems.

TES Canada develops Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) programs for pressure equipment, piping, tanks, and facility assets where inspection planning needs to be driven by risk, damage mechanisms, equipment criticality, and operating history rather than fixed time-based intervals alone. The program development process includes data review, equipment grouping, damage mechanism identification, likelihood and consequence evaluation, risk ranking, inspection effectiveness review, and development of inspection strategies. TES Canada can align the RBI framework with API 580, API 581 principles, owner-user requirements, jurisdictional expectations, and the client’s existing inspection and asset integrity systems. Deliverables may include RBI methodology, equipment risk registers, inspection interval recommendations, inspection scope, damage mechanism summaries, data gap registers, and implementation guidance. The objective is to create a practical, auditable RBI program that supports safer operation, optimized inspection planning, and defensible risk-informed decision-making.
