    Study Notes

    • The recommended practice (RP) focuses on Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) in the hydrocarbon and chemical process industry.
    • The RP allows for flexibility in application to accommodate unique local circumstances.
    • The document clarifies the minimum and recommended attributes of a quality risk assessment.
    • The RP is not intended to single out one specific approach as the recommended method for conducting an RBI effort.
    • The RBI process is focused on maintaining the mechanical integrity of pressure equipment items and minimizing the risk of loss of containment due to deterioration.
    • RBI is not a substitute for a process hazards analysis (PHA) or hazard and operability assessment (HAZOP).
    • The following types of equipment and associated components/internals are covered by this document: pressure vessels, process piping, storage tanks, rotating equipment, boilers and heaters, heat exchangers, and pressure-relief devices.
    • RBI complements the PHA by focusing on the mechanical integrity related damage mechanisms and risk management through inspection.
    • RBI is complementary to reliability centered maintenance (RCM) programs.
    • The RP is intended to promote consistency and quality in the identification, assessment, and management of risks pertaining to material deterioration that could lead to loss of containment.
