To overcome such issues, this paper proposes a machine vision-based inspection system aimed at automating the oil leakage detection for improving...

The objective is to critically discuss the factors that contribute to the probability and consequence of failure...

...Andika Rachman; R.M. Chandima Ratnayake Purpose Corrosion loop development is an integral part of the risk-based inspection (RBI) methodology. The corrosion loop approach allows a group of piping to be analyzed simultaneously, thus reducing non-value adding activities by eliminating repetitive...

...Hamid Moakedi; Mohammad Seved Seyedhosseini; Kamran Shahanaghi Purpose The purpose of this paper is to model a block-based inspection policy for a multi-component system with stochastic dependence. Some components may develop a hidden failure, an occurrence of which neither stops the system nor...

...Efosa E. Uyiomendo; Markeset Tore Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose a multi-variable analysis (MVA) model for predicting potential delays in the delivery of subsea inspection, maintenance and repair (IMR) services. Design/methodology/approach – Based on data from 351 subsea...

Practical implications – Inspection tasks to measure the degradation level should be realized at least one time for each item of equipment at a specific time determined by the proposed methodology. Originality/value – The introduction of a criterion which helps...

Findings The paper identifies and discusses subsea petroleum production system failures, maintenance, inspection, modification and support practices. Findings from literature are validated, and new challenges are identified and discussed...

...Hiroaki Sandoh; Nobuko Igaki; Toshio Nakagawa The present study deals with an optimal inspection policy for a scale where the inspection for a scale is conducted when the elapsed time since the previous inspection or adjustment reaches T (> 0) for the purpose of detecting its...

...Hiroaki Sandoh; Nobuko Igaki The present study proposes two types of periodical inspection policies for a scale which weighs products in the final stage of manufacturing some specific products, such as chemical products. The scale is inspected at time iT(i=1,2, … ). Under...
