This training will provide the delegates with a complete theoretical and practical understanding in implementing asset integrity safeguard assets, people and environment.

Asset integrity management (AIM) focuses on the core elements of safety, environmental protection, reliability, regulatory compliance and data management. An effective Asset Integrity program provides assurance that a facility’s equipment and assets are designed, fabricated, procured, installed and maintained in a manner appropriate for its intended application, throughout the life of the operation.

• Explore the basic Assets Integrity Management Modules
• Clarify the organizational interfaces, duties, and responsibilities of the officers involved in the development, implementation, and roll-out of AIMS.
• Learn about major operators’ AIMS achievements and compare asset integrity management strategies with best-in-class operators.
• To ensure effective AIMS, increase employee involvement, empowerment, and leadership while also enhancing communications and cross-disciplinary teamwork.
• Recognize the various control methods and describe how successful mitigation can reduce risk exposure and be used to satisfy the life extension needs of aging facilities.
