Webinar Overview
The most valuable unit of measure within a turnaround is not money but time. Reducing the time required to complete the activities of a planned turnaround – without reducing scope – returns dividends several times more than the cost of the activity itself. These dividends are further enhanced through the utilization of certified inspection personnel. Additionally, compliance with the PSM Mechanical Integrity requirements is fully met.
Join us as Inspectioneering teams up with Pro-Surve Technical Services to present our webinar, "Utilizing Certified Inspection Personnel to Improve Turnaround Performance and PSM Compliance." This webinar presents the case that shutdown/turnaround departments should benefit from utilizing certified inspection personnel instead of conventional planners when performing shutdown/turnaround planning. Furthermore, we discuss the need for an industry-wide turnaround planning certification – something that does not exist at present.
