In today’s asset-intensive industries, inspection strategies have become a core defense against operational, financial, and safety risks. As assets age and process conditions grow more variable, operators face increasing pressure to make faster, more informed decisions to maintain reliability and compliance.

Risk-based inspection (RBI) remains the foundation of mechanical integrity programs, guiding inspection priorities through proven API 580 and 581 principles. Yet traditional RBI models are often static, updated at long intervals, while the risks they represent continue to evolve.

Dynamic RBI—also known as “RBI on the Fly”—advances these established methods into the real-time, data-driven era. By embedding risk logic within live data environments, operators can continuously align inspection plans with current asset conditions. The result is a stronger, more proactive approach to mechanical integrity—one that improves safety, efficiency, and decision confidence.

You’ll learn:

• How dynamic RBI extends traditional RBI principles into real-time operations
• Why continuous recalculation improves inspection accuracy and responsiveness
• The role of integration, digital maturity, and visualization in enabling dynamic programs
• Practical steps for evolving static RBI models into modern, data-connected systems
