Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) Methodology
A RBI analysis helps determine the required effort by two key parameters: the likelihood of failure of an item and the consequence of its failure of its item. Risk is a combination of the likelihood of failure and the consequence of failure. The purpose of a RBI analysis is to focus inspection activities on those pieces of equipment where failure risks associated with an active damage mechanism are highest. • RBI uses risk as the basis for prioritizing and managing the
efforts of an inspection program. • An effective risk-based program results in a reduced level
of risk for a given level of inspection activity. • RBI methodology permits the allocation of inspection and
maintenance to ◊ provide a high level of coverage on the higher risk
equipment and ◊ an appropriate effort on lower risk equipment
DNV Applies RBI to Produce Timely Results
DNV employs RBI philosophy to determine the level of RISK for the tank and associated piping components • Follows the intent of API RP 580/581 methodology • Utilizes DNV tools: ORBIT™ RBI software • The DNV assessment route is more rigorous and takes into
account more parameters than other tools • Extensive database: ammonia modeled as inventory • Detailed stress and fracture-mechanics modeling • Detailed consequence modeling is based on the DNV
PHAST™ software for evaluating business interruption, damage area, and potential loss of life
Being risk-based, the method considers • Probability of failure (PoF) as well as • Consequences of failure (CoF) The need for RBI is increased by aging equipment, changing and more demanding operating conditions, code revisions, and economic factors.
DNV provides risk-based inspection (RBI) and engineering critical assessment (ECA) of ammonia storage tanks

RBI of Ammonia Storage Tanks
Advantage of RBI for Above Storage Tanks (AST)
Under normal circumstances the AST operator is faced with two methods • API 653 procedure or • A jurisdiction regulated time-based inspection frequency
The 1999 addendum to API 653 introduces a third option • RBI provides a basis for better and more pertinent inspection plans
◊ Systematic categorization (risk-based) ◊ Detailed assessment of tank ◊ Focus inspection effort to reduce risk ◊ Improved record keeping ◊ Enables long-term planning
