OVERVIEW
Direct Assessment (DA) Expert performs an accurate, fast and reproducible External Corrosion Direct Assessment (ECDA) of your unpiggable pipelines based on NACE Standard RP0502-2002.
Handling Uncertainty
Structural Reliability Analysis
Direct Assessment (DA) Expert includes a Structural Reliability Analysis (SRA) Model, based on Bayesian techniques, to handle the many uncertainties inherent in the input data used to calculate the probability of failure of defects and pipeline and a range of associated statistics. Estimates of the failure rate of your pipeline due to external corrosion are output at the end of the process.
Further Information
Direct Assessment (DA) Expert enables computerised storage, retrieval and processing of all appropriate pipeline data and so guarantees highly accurate, reproducible and fast ECDA of a pipeline grid.
The complete database of all pipelines is used to pre-assess the integrity of any particular pipeline. This automated retrieval of data from pipelines with similar characteristics and/or environmental conditions significantly increases the data available so improving the reliability of applied statistics throughout the process. Consequently, the overall cost of future inspections and excavations can be greatly reduced.
Direct Assessment (DA) Expert is fully integrated with PiMSGlobe allowing any location along the pipeline associated with a data item displayed in a table or chart to be shown on the map.
