turnaround/shutdown inspection planning — scope-of-work definition, critical-path schedule, contractor selection, inspector roster, alignment with the owner's RBI plan. ASNT NDT Level III + code-expert authored. This guide decodes the topic step by step.
\nturnaround/shutdown inspection planning — scope-of-work definition, critical-path schedule, contractor selection, inspector roster, alignment with the owner's RBI plan. Provides systematic approach to inspection + maintenance + integrity management.
\nDraws on API RP 571 damage mechanisms and the owner's in-service inspection programme under API 510, 570 and 653. Where the owner runs a risk-based inspection programme (API 580/581), the turnaround scope comes from its inspection plan; the RBI study itself is the owner's work. Atlantis NDT does not perform RBI or fitness-for-service assessments.
\nAtlantis NDT ERP + Atlantis Digital Twin platform + NDT reporting software integrated stack runs the workflow end-to-end. ASNT NDT Level III consultant facilitates setup + ongoing refresh.
\nA scope agreed before the shutdown starts; fewer late discoveries that extend the outage; complete, traceable inspection records for the owner's programme.
\nA: ASNT SNT-TC-1A only. Atlantis NDT does not offer API ICP, AWS CWI, NACE/AMPP, CSWIP, PCN or CGSB training or exam preparation. (The CGSB published the standard and ceased operations on 1 April 2026; certification under CAN/CGSB-48.9712 is issued by the NRCan NDT Certification Body or CWB Group.) Where a turnaround specification requires inspectors holding another scheme, that is confirmed per project.
