ONSTREAM

At SIS, we offer comprehensive Onstream Inspection Services designed to ensure the continued safe and efficient operation of refinery equipment without the need for costly shutdowns. Our experienced team uses the latest technologies and industry best practices to monitor and assess the condition of critical equipment while it remains in operation, minimizing downtime and optimizing operational efficiency. Our service includes:

​

1. Equipment Condition Monitoring:

   • Regular inspections of pressure vessels, piping systems, heat exchangers, and reactors to detect early signs of wear, corrosion, or damage using visual inspections, ultrasonic testing, and other non-destructive testing (NDT) methods.

2. Corrosion Monitoring:

   • Implementation of advanced corrosion monitoring techniques, such as ultrasonic thickness measurements and corrosion probes, to assess material degradation and prevent potential failures, including Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) and internal corrosion.

3. Integrity Assessments:

   • Conducting Fitness for Service (FFS) evaluations to assess the structural integrity of equipment, ensuring it meets operational requirements without compromising safety or efficiency.

4. Fatigue and Stress Monitoring:

   • Monitoring for mechanical stress damage, including fatigue and creep, particularly in critical components like pressure vessels and piping exposed to high temperatures or cyclical loading.

5. Leak Detection:

   • Utilizing advanced leak detection methods such as helium leak testing, dye penetrant testing, and electromagnetic testing to identify leaks in equipment, preventing hazardous material releases and maintaining environmental compliance.

6. Process Safety Monitoring:

   • Assessing the functionality of safety-critical systems like emergency shutdown valves, relief valves, and instrumentation to ensure they are operational and ready to respond in an emergency.

7. Risk-Based Inspection (RBI):

   • Utilizing Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) methodologies to prioritize inspections and maintenance efforts based on the likelihood and impact of potential failures, optimizing resource allocation and minimizing downtime.
