Refractories Inspection & Quality Assurance

REFRACTORY INSPECTION SERVICES

REBL’s refractory inspection and Quality Assurance (QA) services provide plant engineers and equipment integrity personnel with understanding needed to make decisions regarding refractory design, material selection, and installation methods. This insight allows them to make well-informed and timely decisions regarding planned and unplanned work, and new capital projects.

On-Site Expertise, Start to Finish.

REBL’s presence on-site during turnarounds and shutdowns provides refractory expertise at every stage of the project, from planning to final inspection. Each initial inspection is followed with the submission of a comprehensive report, documenting REBL’s observations and recommendations for refractory repair or replacement. During the refractory installation phase, REBL assures that all agreed-to quality control measures are followed by the installation contractor. These include review of material qualification test results, monitoring installer qualifications/mock-up, providing surveillance throughout the various steps of refractory installation, final inspection, and ITP sign-off. REBL’s final report details all refractory aspects of the project, including existing refractory condition, repairs completed, repair mapping, and recommendations for future repairs. REBL’s detailed documentation process provides clients with accurate records for planning of future refractory work.

All inspections are conducted by REBL’s API 936/982 certified refractory inspectors or engineers.
