As turnaround inspection specialists, we participate in scheduled unit outages at various owner/user facilities. Each of these facilities, having their own collection of procedures and practices with years spent meticulously planning and preparing for these events. Input has been collected from all major organizational entities of the site (operations, maintenance, mechanical integrity, et al) and step-by-step work plans have been generated, including detailed inspection plans and repair scopes for each piece of equipment that will be serviced. Also included in these plans are forecasted budget growths and float times for discovery-related inspection findings on each piece of equipment. Major factors for determining allocations for growth are the review of visual inspection histories, thickness data, and operating conditions since the last inspection or maintenance event.
