Hello, my name is Andr%E9s Rivera, now I%B4m finishing my Bachelor degree on Mechanical Engineering and I chose as final project a study based in Risk Based Inspection for Centrifugal Pumps. I worked last year in RBI according to API 570 for Storage tanks, pipelines and PCEs in general (Process Containment Equipment), for that reason I know all kind of materials available for conducing this RBI probram, including specialized software. Now as I said before, I%B4m looking for RBI in centrifugal pumps, I haven%B4t found anything related directly with this subject, only some things about failure methods in these pumps and reliability maintenance. If some of yours knows something about conducing RBI for centrifugal pumps, I would appreciate all support you can give me. Greetings from Colombia!!!

Andres: The logic for conducting RBI for pumps is similar to that for fixed equipment and piping systems. It is based on a matrix of probability X consequence. The consequence rules should be similar to those for other equipment. The probability side of the equation should be based on pump specific failure mechanisms. For additional information regarding Risk Based Inspection, please browse to our sister company RBITech at http://www.rbitech.com. Hope this helps! David Hendrix The Hendrix Group Inc.
