Main uses of API Inspection Testing:

API 510: Certified API 510 Pressure Vessel inspectors have a broad knowledge base relating to maintenance, inspection, repair, and alteration of pressure vessels. The inspection and analysis of examination data is an important part of the API 510 inspectors job. Knowing what to inspect for and what is critical sets the API 510 inspector apart and establishes their high value to the mechanical integrity program.

API 570: Certified API 570 Piping inspectors have a broad knowledge base relating to maintenance, inspection, alteration and repair of in-service metallic piping systems. The ability to analyze problems, oversee the inspection, testing and perform calculations regarding minimum wall thickness and operating pressures makes the API 570 inspector an important member of your maintenance and inspection team.

API 580: RBI has quickly become one of the industry’s premiere instruments and preferred methods of inspection. The API 580 certification adds significant value to our professional credentials, demonstrating that we have obtained a high level of proficiency and understanding in this very important field. Risk based inspection is a very integral part of a mechanical integrity program.

API 653: The inspection of above ground storage tanks (AST) is the primary function of the API 653 inspector. This individual typically leads a team of personnel performing nondestructive testing and data analysis pertaining to AST inspection. The API 653 is trained in performing calculations in accordance with the API Standard and will oversee any necessary repairs as directed by the Owner.
