Efficient Asset Management with Real-Time Monitoring

Event Driven Inspection

Event Driven Inspection

Event-Driven Inspection (EDI) is a proactive inspection strategy that leverages real-time data from sensors, condition monitoring systems, and operational parameters (the “events”) to trigger or adjust inspection activities. This approach shifts the focus from rigid, time-based, or even fixed-interval risk-based schedules to a dynamic, condition-based model.

The Gap: Why EDI is Needed

Despite the strengths of RBI and OSI, certain scenarios can lead to unexpected failures:

Rapidly Accelerating Damage

Some damage mechanisms (e.g., localized corrosion, stress corrosion cracking) can accelerate quickly and may not be detected by routine RBI intervals or continuous OSI unless specifically monitored.

Operational Changes/Upsets

Process changes, excursions, or upsets can introduce new stresses or accelerate existing degradation, necessitating immediate reassessment beyond scheduled plans.

Anomalous Sensor Readings

OSI might indicate an anomaly, but further investigation (an "event-driven" inspection) is often required to understand its root cause and severity.

Third-Party Information

Incidents at similar facilities or new industry findings can trigger the need for immediate localized inspections.

Unforeseen Circumstances

External events (e.g., seismic activity) or maintenance interventions can impact asset integrity.

Key Benefits

  • Optimized Maintenance Costs
  • Improved Asset Integrity Knowledge
  • Increased Operational Flexibility
  • Compliance and Due Diligence
  • Reduced Unscheduled Downtime

Real-Time Integrity Monitoring for Proactive Decision-Making and Inspection.

proactively identifying and addressing emerging threats, EDI reduces the likelihood of catastrophic failures, protecting personnel and the environment.


Early detection of degradation allows for planned interventions rather than reactive, emergency shutdowns, minimizing production losses.
