INTRODUCTION TO PLANT INSPECTION
Course Description
Plant Inspection includes a wide range of testing procedures aimed at finding the status of
the mechanical integrity of the plant equipment under given operating conditions. The focus
is primarily on stationary pressure equipment as well as on rotating equipment.
This practical course is designed to enable a understanding of the Inspector plays an
engineering knowledge required for in-service process plant inspection, important role in the
based on existing world accepted codes: API 510 / 570/ 574/ 576, etc. monitoring and safety
The course will explain the principles of Risk Based Inspection (RBI) assessment of
petrochemical and
based on API 580, which serves for handling various types of hazards
refinery plant
and the efficient measures of the risk mitigation.
Recognizing the need to ensure that engineers involved in asset
integrity management are suitably qualified to deliver optimized plant
inspection and assessment.
