위험기반검사(RBI)는 석유화학, 정유, 가스 산업 등에서 압력설비를 위험도에 따라 검사주기, 검사방법 등의 검사계획을 제시하는 검사기법으로, RBI 기술을 사용하여 위험도가 높은 설비를 집중적이고, 비용-효과적으로 유지 보수 및 관리할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 RBI의 원리 및 수행절차, RBI에 의한 위험 및 설비 관리와 적용효과, RBI 기술현황 및 국내 적용현황을 소개하고, RBI의 발전방안을 제안하였다.

The RBI technique proposed by API is composed of three steps. The qualitative RBI method can be used for the purpose of screening the components with high risk. And the quantitative RBI method employs complex risk evaluation model for predicting component risk in a quantitative manner. The inspection program can be optimized based on the results obtained by these RBI technique. The forementioned RBI technique has been applied to a common hydrodesulfurizer unit and the technique is critically evaluated for studying its benefits and limitations, which is the main issue of this thesis. It's conducted that the RBI method can provide a method for defining and measuring the component risk, and also provide a powerful tool for managing many of the important elements of a process plant.

Recently, regulatory bodies quite often encourage to adopt risk-based inspection (RBI) and management programs because they can enhance safety simultaneously with deregulation in Korea. RBI is an integrated methodology that factors risk into inspection and maintenance decision making. This paper describes an example of how to use known risk assessment codes (API 580, API 581 BRD) to address such safety analysis requirements for risk management in the refining industry. Specifically, this paper reports the methodology and the results of implementation to the Crude Distillation Unit(CDU) plant of refinery units using the $KGS-RBI^{TM}$ program, developed by the Korea Gas Safety Corporation in reference of API Codes and ASME PC (Post Construction) with a suitable consideration of Korean situation. The results of the risk and reliability assessment using $KGS-RBI^{TM}$ program are useful in determining whether the detected defects are tolerable or required to be repaired. The subsequent decisions are to manage the future inspection, repair and maintenance planning in the risk reduction control.

During the last decade, effort has been made f3r reducing maintenance cost for aged equipments and ensuring safety, efficiency and profitability of petrochemical and refinery plants. Hence, it was required to develop advanced methods which meet this need. RBI(Risk Based Inspection) methodology is one of the most promising technology satisfying the requirements in the field of integrity management. In this study, a quantitative assessment algorithm fir RBI based on the API 581 code was reconstructed for developing an RBI software. The user-friendly realRBI software is developed with a module for evaluating quantitative risk md financial risk using the potential consequence and the likelihood. Also, inspection planning module for inspection time and inspection method are included in it.

To apply easily the K-RBI program in domestic industries, an implemental procedure for K-RBI program was prepared. The K-RBI program had been developed, based on API-581 BRD. Therefore, through the usage of the developed K-RBI program and the implemental procedure, industries would have a benefit from reduced costs by modifying a frequency of an inspection efficiently. Also, the reliability of facilities would be maximized through improvement of an inspection method for facilities, considering its risk.

Industrial facilities are becoming more complex and various with rapidly developing technologies. A number of installations and equipments are increased to improve productivity, and they are operated under the condition of high temperature and pressure. They are continuously repaired, replaced or abolished because of the deterioration with time, but their repair and replacement are not easy for economical and environmental concerns. If possible, the deteriorating equipments should be inspected and repaired effectively considering the state of maintenance and preservation, economic efficiency, and safety. That's where RBI(Risk Based Inspection) fits in. Even if RBI technology has been known among specialists, there were no tools readily available and it was hard to practice and apply RBI in industrial inspection and safety management. In the development of the qualitative RBI, the overall algorithm adopted API-581 BRD. The qualitative RBI program was developed to search the appling process.

냉각수, 수증기 등과 같은 유틸리티를 사용하는 설비에서는 장치손상지역에 의한 사고 피해크기(COF)가 0의 값을 나타내고, 이로 인해 위험도가 0으로 나타난다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 위험기반검사(RBI)에서 장치손상지역에 의한 COF로부터 위험도를 산출하는 방법을 개선하여 재정적 손실에 의한 COF로부터 위험도를 산출하는 RBI 절차를 개발하였다. 그리고 장치손상지역과 재정적 손실에 의한 위험도로부터 검사주기를 동시에 산정하는 RBI 프로그램(KS-RBI Ver 3.1)을 개발하여 석유화학공정에 적용하였다. 그 결과, 재정적 손실에 의한 COF로부터 산출한 위험도는 장치손상지역에 의한 COF로부터 산출한 위험도 결과와 거의 유사하였다. 그러나 유틸리티를 사용하거나 고가의 설비에서는 장치손상지역에 의한 경우보다 재정적 손실에 의한 COF로부터 설비의 위험도를 보다 정확하게 산출할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we describe a rule-based risk classification algorithm to perform Risk-based Inspection (RBI) on imported goods at customs. The RBI system is a method to automatically select which cargos have to be inspected and manage potential risks in boarder. In this study, we designed a rule-based risk classification algorithm for RBI solutions and implemented them using the Svelte web application framework. The risk classification algorithm proposed in this paper uses different indicative risk factors such as HS code, country of origin, importer's reliability, trade relationships, and logistics routes to classify cargos into Green, Yellow, and Red channels. To achieve this, we assigned risk categories to each risk factor and randomly generated risk scores within a specific range for each risk category. This system is expected to contribute to the increased efficiency of customs operations and protect public safety by minimizing the risk of imported hazardous materials.

최근 국내의 많은 에너지 플랜트가 10여년 이상 가동되면서 설비의 장수명화 및 노후설비에 대한 건전성 확보에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 플랜트의 RAM (reliability, availability and maintainability)에 대한 중요도가 높아지고 있다. 플랜트의 RAM을 높이기 위해 RBI (Risk Based Inspection)는 중요한 핵심 기술이다. RBI 기술은 주로 정류 플랜트 설비, 매설배관 설비, 원자력플랜트 설비 등의 에너지 플랜트 분야에서 개발이 진행되어 왔다. 하지만, 기 개발된 RBI 절차는 화력 발전플랜트 등 다른 에너지 플랜트에서의 적용이 어려웠다. 본 연구에서는 에너지 플랜트에서의 최적 예방점검을 위한 일반적인 RBI 표준 절차를 개발하여 보고하였다.

As a way of improving the safety of the chemical facilities, the risk based-inspection(RBI) was executed for the facilities of the applied petrochemical plant using KS-RBI Ver. 3.0 program developed based on the API-581 based resource document(BRD). From an evaluation result of KS-RBI program, we could find the evaluation of the process safety management(PSM) for the applied plant, risk of the applied process, risk of static facilities and pipes, and the demage mechanism of the facilities. Also, we could suggest a proper inspection plan(frequency and method of inspection) using the calculated risk and the status of the facilities. Therefore, the applied plant could be achieved a reduced inspection cost by an extension of inspection frequency, improved productivity, improved reliability of the facilities, and a computerized history management.
