Effectively Using Risk-Based Inspection Results to Implement a Corrosion Under Insulation Program

This paper will discuss how to use Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) results to justify and manage a Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) program that can be validated by using key performance indicators. A step-by step methodology to provide guidance on how to recognize, develop, and implement a CUI remediation program will be shared based on experience from 19 plant sites. Recommendations, based on actual plant experience, are included to facilitate the sharing of best practices and prevention of common errors.
