Process and Operating Integrity

 At PinnacleAIS we help our clients by leveraging our equipment and process expertise to help facility personnel understand what issues are critical to long term asset integrity. With one of our asset integrity projects, we will review and provide assistance in establishing:

  • Control and Alarm Settings
    Set your control system to alarm or notify personnel when process excursions add additional risks of reduced asset life such as corrosion or fouling.
     
  • Start-up/Shut-down Parameters
    Ensure that your procedures limit the amount of impurities, such as air or water, left in the system due to shutdowns.
     
  • Operating Procedure Review
    Detailed review of operating procedures to ensure that opportunities to control the process to minimize equipment risks are realized.
     
  • Process Upgrade Impact Assessments
    Modifying your process? Our consultants can review the new process parameters and assist your personnel in identifying future potential areas of accelerated damage to equipment.


Critical to the integrity of equipment is the stability and management of its operations. Errors in shutdown or startup, process upsets, feedstock impurities, or modifications to operating conditions can have some of the most profound affects on equipment. Frequently, equipment failures are tied back to process issues. Controlling these issues is a primary goal in any operating facility.
