Structural Integrity Management
Retrieval of data/records, review and archive the SIM data systematically to enable easy access at a later stage.
Develop high level plans and schedule along with prioritisation of assets in consultation with operations.
Visual, NDT, Corrosion and erosion inspection programs, special inspection for vibration monitoring and surface protection.
Implementation and execution of planned activities, documentation and reporting of findings.
Risk based evaluation and prioritisation of the mitigation program; design assessment and fit for service rectification.
Deliver repair methods with drawings, specifications, material selection and application methodology.
Construction monitoring, MDR review, quarterly assurance, punch list and close out report.
Organisations that realise the benefits of having an integrity management plan always stay ahead in the overall game.
Unexpected and frequent show-stopping failures of equipment in service often impacts the bottom- line and this ends up derailing all IRR and ROI assumptions. Cash flow projections and projected current ratios become unpredictable if these failures happen too often. To avoid such situations, it is critical to maintaining the integrity of your assets.
Mechanical and structural failures in service can happen in aging and newer plants. Proper inspections and theoretical analyses are required, supported by mathematical modelling and numerical analyses.
Established procedures of failure analysis can predict the behaviour of a fracture process and evaluate the equipment or structure under the applied loading. This prevents the failure of large equipment to the smallest component and assures their functionality and reliability, in addition to safety.
Here is a structural integrity management plan which needs engineering support in terms of depth of knowledge, problem-solving, and decision-making, to provide fit-for-purpose solutions. Managing structural integrity is the key to ensuring engineered structure remains safe and productive during and beyond its design life.
