Integrating Risk Based Inspection into Plant Condition Monitoring Software	Time: 2:45 PM	Room A
J. Redmon, Mistras Group Inc. Risk Based Inspection Assessments are often used as a means to prioritize inspections for the next Turnaraound (T/A). Inspection history and NDT data from software such as PCMS are needed for the RBI study. Once the RBI study is complete, the results are used to determine the scope of the T/A. Typically upon completion of the T/A, the RBI results tend to just sit in a binder or on a CD, and are never used again. Thus, the real issue is to find a way to integrate traditional NDT data gathered on a daily basis with RBI analytical data gathered on a periodic basis. The introduction of RBI Integrator and RBI Calculator modules to PCMS merges these results into one database and addresses these issues. Within this framework, the paper demonstrates how the NDT and corrosion management data captured on a daily basis are integrated with RBI assessments to help create an “evergreen” inspection process that provides a current view of equipment integrity.
