QUOTES

“Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) is a systematic approach used in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, manufacturing, and utilities. Its primary purpose is to optimise inspection and maintenance efforts by identifying and prioritizing assets and equipment that pose the highest risk of failure. RBI helps organisations focus their resources where they are needed most, ensuring safety, reliability, and operational efficiency.”
“RBI is an integral part of AIM, providing the risk assessment and prioritisation necessary for effective asset integrity management.”
“An example of RBI's impact on sustainability is in the chemical industry, where it has reduced the risk of hazardous chemical leaks and spills, protecting the environment and neighbouring communities.”
