API-510, API-570, and API-653 inspection of facilities generate massive
amounts of data which must be managed effectively to meet operational and
regulatory objectives. A 200,000 bdp refinery may have 500 tanks, 2,500 pressure vessels,
and 25,000 piping circuits. These may
in turn have a total of 200,000 SML’s,
approximately 35,000 visually observed conditions, and over 20,000 findings
requiring near-term remediation. In
addition, such a facility will generally have over 12,500 drawings, and
125,000 documents. Effective
management of the data requires that it be A) accurate, reflecting all of the
data collected; B) current, so that drawings and documents reflect all
modifications, and contain the most up to date information; and C) auditable,
readily retrievable and are complete to meet corporate and regulatory
requirements. Moving beyond the
reporting in standard corrosion monitoring software, the presentation will
identify which data is critical, how to prioritize the inspection and
maintenance efforts, methods and tools to organize the information, and how
to connect the mechanical integrity data, drawings, and documents. |
