Refining & Petrochemical

Built For Refineries.
Proven At Scale.

Reliatic was designed in partnership with refiners running 150k+ bpd operations. We understand sour crude, HIC, high-temp creep, and the reality of 4-year turnarounds.

Refinery-Specific Challenges We Solve

Generic asset management doesn't cut it in high-temperature, corrosive environments.

Sour Service & HIC

The Problem

Hydrogen-induced cracking doesn't follow generic corrosion models. You need wet H2S partial pressure calculations, scheduled pH monitoring integration, and stress-oriented HIC projection.

How Reliatic Solves It

Our HIC model uses your actual crude sulfur content, operating temps, and historical UT data to project susceptibility. We've calibrated against 4,200 sour service failures.

Real Result

The HIC model helps identify susceptible assets earlier, enabling proactive inspection scheduling before damage propagates.

High-Temp Creep

The Problem

Generic RBI treats a 450°C reformer the same as a 200°C separator. But creep failure isn't linear. You need Larson-Miller parameter tracking and actual operating hour stress analysis.

How Reliatic Solves It

We pull real operating temps from your PI historian, calculate cumulative creep damage using API 579, and flag when units exceed safe operational envelopes.

Real Result

Continuous creep tracking enables metallurgical assessments to be scheduled based on actual cumulative damage, not arbitrary calendar intervals.

Turnaround Optimization

The Problem

Traditional approach: inspect everything on a 4-year cycle. Result: 60% of inspections find nothing, while critical items get deferred due to budget/time constraints.

How Reliatic Solves It

Risk-based turnaround scoping. We model which units MUST be inspected (high PoF × high CoF) vs. which can safely defer to next cycle. Includes budget optimization tool.

Real Result

Risk-based scoping typically shifts 30-50% of inspection effort from low-risk to high-risk items, improving coverage where it matters most.

Regulatory Compliance

The Problem

API 510, OSHA PSM, PER requirements—all require documented risk assessments. Manually maintaining compliance records across thousands of pressure boundaries is impossible.

How Reliatic Solves It

Structured compliance tracking. Every asset has a full audit trail: RBI calculations, inspection history, deviations, and documented risk justifications. One-click export for audits.

Real Result

Full traceability from risk calculation to inspection record enables efficient audit preparation and regulatory response.

Carbon Capture & Storage

CCUS Asset Integrity: A Different Risk Profile

Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) facilities run CO₂ streams at high pressure through pipelines, wells, and injection equipment designed for hydrocarbon service—but with fundamentally different corrosion and fracture mechanics.

Supercritical CO₂ Corrosion

Challenge

Wet CO₂ above 31°C and 74 bar enters supercritical phase. Carbon steel corrosion rates accelerate dramatically in the presence of free water. Standard hydrocarbon corrosion models do not apply.

Platform Approach

Reliatic supports CO₂-specific corrosion models with configurable water content thresholds, phase boundary tracking, and corrosion allowance recalculation as operating conditions shift across injection campaigns.

Impurity-Driven Damage

Challenge

Captured CO₂ streams from industrial sources contain SOₓ, NOₓ, H₂S, and O₂ impurities depending on the capture technology. Each shifts the dew point and accelerates localised corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking.

Platform Approach

Damage mechanism libraries include impurity-specific degradation pathways. Each asset can carry multiple active mechanisms with independent corrosion rates and inspection intervals driven by actual stream composition data.

Injection Well Integrity

Challenge

CO₂ injection wells experience pressure cycling, potential microannulus formation at the casing-cement interface, and long-term wellbore integrity challenges not covered by API 510 pressure vessel frameworks.

Platform Approach

Reliatic's asset hierarchy supports wellbore components with custom inspection templates aligned to ISO 16530 and well integrity management system (WIMS) requirements. Each barrier element carries its own risk score and inspection schedule.

Pilot & Emerging Projects

Running a CCUS pilot program?

Reliatic supports stage-gate governance for pilot projects—from Front-End Loading through commissioning and first injection. Each gate requires documented sign-off before the next phase unlocks.

Typical Implementation Journey

What to expect when transitioning from spreadsheets to a structured RBI platform.

Phase 1: Program Audit (Weeks 1-4)

We start by understanding your current RBI program state and identifying data gaps.

Review existing asset registers and inspection history
Identify assets with missing or outdated corrosion data
Assess current CMMS integration capabilities
Document damage mechanisms relevant to your process conditions

Phase 2: Data Migration (Weeks 5-8)

Historical inspection data is normalized and imported into the platform.

Import inspection records from various sources (PDFs, CMMS exports, contractor portals)
Flag assets requiring engineering review for data completion
Calibrate corrosion models using actual measured rates where available
Configure process-specific damage mechanisms

Phase 3: Go-Live (Weeks 9-12)

Platform goes live with guided risk assessments.

Generate initial risk rankings across all assets
Identify high-risk assets potentially missing from inspection schedules
Review low-risk assets for potential inspection deferral
Establish cadence for ongoing risk model updates

Phase 4: Continuous Improvement

Ongoing optimization as inspection data accumulates.

Refine corrosion rates based on new inspection findings
Optimize turnaround scope using risk-based prioritization
Generate audit-ready compliance documentation
Track value realization from risk-based decisions
