Details :
The course explains feasible means and alternatives for
achieving a successful RBI program without undue complications. This course
deals with RBI framework and methodology in a simple straightforward manner to
establish and implement a risk-based inspection program best suited for the
company objectives. Its utility is based on the premise that a few vital
equipment in a process plant contributes a majority of the risk. Consequently,
if these few equipment can be identified, then testing and inspection can be
focused on them rather than several low-risk items.
RBI helps to prioritize their equipment for inspection,
optimize inspection methods and frequencies, and develop effective inspection
plan commensurate with the risk contribution and equipment condition
The course focus on methodology of actual implementation of
RBI in Oil and Gas industry. It covers advanced knowledge of RBI implementation
in addition to the knowledge required for passing the Certification
Examination.

The API 580 course methodology typically follows a
structured framework to ensure participants gain a comprehensive understanding
of RBI principles and practices. Here are the key components typically covered
in an API 580 course:
- Introduction
to Risk-Based Inspection: The course starts with an overview of RBI
principles, its objectives, and the benefits it provides to
asset-intensive industries. It introduces the participants to the concept
of risk assessment and how it is applied to determine inspection
strategies.
- RBI
Framework: The course covers the fundamental framework and methodology
used in RBI, including risk assessment techniques, inspection planning,
and decision-making processes. Participants learn about different risk
models and how to select the most appropriate model for their specific
industry and equipment.
- Risk
Analysis: The course dives into the risk analysis phase, which involves
identifying and assessing risks associated with equipment failures.
Participants learn how to identify failure mechanisms, estimate the
probability of failure, and quantify the consequences of failure.
- Inspection
Planning: This part of the course focuses on developing effective
inspection plans based on the identified risks. Participants learn about
various inspection techniques, such as non-destructive testing (NDT), and
how to determine the appropriate inspection intervals and methods based on
risk levels.
- RBI
Implementation: The course covers the practical aspects of implementing
RBI within an organization. Participants learn about data management,
documentation requirements, and how to integrate RBI with other asset
management systems, such as integrity management and maintenance planning.
- Case
Studies and Exercises: Throughout the course, participants are presented
with real-life case studies and practical exercises to reinforce their
understanding of RBI principles. These activities provide an opportunity
to apply the acquired knowledge to solve practical problems and make
informed decisions.
- Exam
Preparation: The course concludes with exam preparation sessions to help
participants review the key concepts covered in the course and ensure they
are ready for the API 580 certification exam.
