Course Description
API RP 580 introduces the principles and presents minimum general guidelines for developing a RBI program for fixed equipment and piping. API RP 581 provides quantitative RBI methods to establish an inspection program. Together, these two documents comprise a widely-recognized standard for industry-accepted RBI practices. This training course helps attendees understand and use RBI technology, develop a program and learn which RBI procedures and working processes comply with industry standards.
