Asset Integrity Management for the Petroleum Industry

Offered by the American Institute of Oil & Gas Technology Arizona(AIOGT)

An Asset Integrity Management (AIM) system ensures that critical assets operate efficiently and safely throughout their lifecycle, protecting health, safety, the environment, and asset quality. It integrates design, maintenance, inspection, operations, and management processes to maximize return on investment (ROI).

This training course covers how to manage asset integrity for both new and existing assets, including setting up an AIM system. It begins with Asset Management (AM) concepts (ISO 55000), followed by AIM principles focusing on design, technical, and operational integrity. The course also covers Risk-Based Maintenance (RBM), Failure Mode Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), and Risk-Based Inspection (RBI), providing the tools to develop and implement an effective AIM system that mitigates asset integrity risks.
