Engineering Assessments & Fitness-for-Service

Assessments & FFS

A defensible technical basis for safe continued operation — from threat evaluation to tiered API 579 assessment.

Engineering Assessments

Complete assessments that help operators identify, evaluate and mitigate integrity risks across the asset lifecycle — from threat extent and severity analysis to inspection-strategy selection and technical plans for safe continued operation.

Fitness-for-Service (FFS)

Tiered fitness-for-service assessments to API RP 579 / ASME FFS-1, with remaining-life evaluation for active integrity threats:

Level 1 — conservative screening
Level 2 — detailed assessment with refined criteria
Level 3 — advanced numerical (FEA) assessment

Dent & Mechanical Damage

Dent, wrinkle and gouge assessment to API 1183 and strain-based criteria — distinguishing benign geometry from features that need repair, and setting monitoring intervals for the ones in between.

Fittings, Cover & Crossings

Pressure design verification of fittings, depth-of-cover compliance checks, material qualification, and integrity evaluation of uncased road, rail and watercourse crossings on existing lines.

Integrity Programs & Audit Readiness

Integrity management program (IMP) development, pressure-testing planning and support, and regulatory compliance and audit readiness — a practical, risk-informed approach that helps you prioritize where to spend and what to defer, grounded in API 1160, ASME B31.8S and CSA Z662 Annex N.

ILI Assessment & POE

In-line inspection (ILI) data assessment — anomaly review, feature matching between runs and corrosion-growth analysis — with probability-of-exceedance (POE) analysis that turns inspection data into defensible re-inspection intervals and dig programs, so excavation spend goes to the features that matter most. Findings are delivered as Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 assessment reports, escalating from conservative screening to detailed finite-element evaluation as the feature demands.

Risk Analysis

Pipeline and facility risk analysis — likelihood and consequence assessment, risk ranking and risk-based prioritization aligned with CSA Z662 Annex B and your integrity management program — giving operators a defensible basis for decisions on inspection, repair and capital allocation.
