BQCIS

Safeguarding Assets Across Their Entire Lifecycle

Industrial assets such as pipelines, refineries, offshore platforms, and power plants face aging, corrosion, and fatigue risks that can compromise safety and uptime. BQCIS Asset Integrity Verification provides independent, engineering-based assessments to help operators maintain asset performance and regulatory compliance.

Our inspection engineers use advanced techniques including ultrasonic testing, radiography, thermography, and risk-based inspection (RBI) methodologies to evaluate critical components and ensure continued serviceability.

From design validation to in-service inspection and decommissioning review, we deliver data-driven reports that enable proactive maintenance and extend asset lifespan.

Our Asset Integrity Verification Activities

Design & Fabrication Review

Validate materials, drawings, and weld specifications during design and manufacturing stages.

Non-Destructive Testing (NDT)

Perform ultrasonic, magnetic particle, dye-penetrant, and radiographic examinations to detect hidden flaws.

Corrosion & Coating Assessment

Inspect and quantify corrosion rates, coating degradation, and cathodic protection performance.

Risk-Based Inspection (RBI)

Prioritize inspection activities using API 580/581 methodologies to optimize maintenance schedules.

Structural Integrity Evaluation

Use finite element analysis (FEA) and load testing to confirm stability under operating conditions.

Pressure Equipment Verification

Verify compliance with ASME, PED, and ISO 11120 for pressure vessels, boilers, and piping systems.

Operational Readiness Audit

Ensure safety systems, documentation, and process controls are in place before startup or recommissioning.

Decommissioning & Asset Disposal Review

Inspect and document end-of-life condition to ensure environmentally responsible decommissioning.

Fitness-for-Service (FFS) Analysis

Quantitative engineering evaluation to assess the structural integrity of equipment containing flaws or damage.

Success Story

BQCIS Integrity Assessment Prevents Major Refinery Shutdown

The Challenge:

A downstream refinery in Asia faced recurring leaks in a high-pressure heat exchanger, threatening an unplanned shutdown.

Our Solution:

BQCIS deployed NDT experts and corrosion engineers, performed ultrasonic mapping and metallurgical analysis, and identified localized thinning in key areas.

The Result:

Targeted repairs avoided a total shutdown, saving over $1.2 million in lost production and improving plant safety index scores by 27 %.
