The objective of this EN document is to provide the RBI Framework (RBIF) and basic guideline for Risk-Based Inspection and Maintenance (RBIM) in process, power, steel and other industries.
Although RBIF encompasses both inspection and maintenance, this document focuses primarily on RBI and its applicability within the context of RBIM. The RBIF, thereby supports optimization of operations and maintenance as well as safety and asset integrity management.
The purpose of RBIF is to ensure that the targets (objectives) pertinent to:
Health,
Safety,
Environment and
Business continuity /production/operation
are achieved within the optimized intervals, scope and methods of risk based inspection and maintenance. The RBIF addresses primarily the static containment equipment (e.g. tanks, piping), dynamic/rotating containment equipment (e.g. pumps, turbines, valves) and pressure relief devices, but can be extended to other types of equipment if appropriate. It addresses primary the equipment and/or systems in the in-service phase of the operation, but can be applied also in the, e.g. design-phase for analysis and determination of maintenance/inspection strategies or life extension phases.
