tuan,
There has been a risk based inspection scheme which is applied starting from consequence ranking, moving to ranking the probability of failure and performing a risk evaluation with the product of these two, keeping that semi-quantitive or quantitative. Once this risk assessment is done ...

Re: Generation of AI based Written Schemes of Inspection
That is a good idea to use AI on enhancing existing written scheme of inspection however, care has to be taken on the content which is created.
Inspection written schemes are required to be based upon inspection plans normally created from RBI, and each new inspection depends upon what was picked ...

Re: Temporary Repair Failure
The thing is that we still applyvwraps every now and then when needed, that too on hydrocarbon lines. Temperature of the line contributes a lot to the installation of the wrap and then the applied pressure during installation.
I understand that any wrapping done to arrest a leak temporarily must be ...

Re: Fire Damage Assessment - API 579
What would be your role in all this?
Depends the level you would be engaged before anything is suggested.

Temporary Repair Failure
Copying from an incident reported in 2012;
What Happened:
Ice formation was reported on the 3rd stage relief line on the associated gas compressor. A
pinhole leak was found and a wrap temporary repair was effected, following Technical
Authroity approval. The wrap was applied by a specialist ...
