API

The document discusses the qualifications and responsibilities of various API inspectors and professionals. It outlines topics like corrosion rates, inspection intervals, joint efficiencies, pressure testing, impact testing, welding procedures, non-destructive examination, damage mechanisms, and inspection of pressure vessels, piping, aboveground tanks, pipelines, and other refinery equipment. It also covers risk-based inspection concepts like data collection, failure analysis, risk assessment, mitigation activities, and documentation. The qualifications are designed to ensure inspectors have the required expertise to properly examine refinery and petrochemical equipment, identify issues, and help facilitate maintenance, repair and risk management.
