Client Challenge
One of the largest fertilizer manufacturers globally needed to create a comprehensive inspection program, backed by historical data, aiming to reduce downtime and optimize their inspection costs. The client had selected GE APM as the software.
Vysus Group has extensive experience with all stages of the RBI Implementation process, from collecting the pertinent data, using our breadth of corrosion experience to identify the relevant damage mechanisms and creating targeted Inspection Test Plans.
How we helped
Vysus Group leveraged our experience across the Americas to deliver a successful RBI Implementation, during the challenges of COVID 19, utilizing both remote and onsite support. Our team of experienced consultants collected and organized the pertinent data for the equipment and piping in scope across multiple units.
Vysus Group then systemized and circuitized the PFDs and P&IDs, providing the client with a clear visual representation of similar processes and metallurgy. Our corrosion team conducted a Damage Mechanism Review, incorporating the identification of corrosion loops, allowing the client to get a clear understanding of the applicable damage mechanisms and specific areas of concern. Once complete and verified our team created the relevant Inspection Test Plans, identifying the method, the location and the frequency of inspections.
This provided a fully documented process, integrated within the software for ease of management. This documented, software enabled process has provided the client a cohesive Inspection Management Program with expected cost savings of 20% and an ability to integrate inspections with planned shutdowns and turnarounds.
Vysus Group's positive and professional interactions coupled with their technical abilities, delivering the project on schedule was instrumental in supporting our MI Program.
