A performance survey comprises a cold and hot survey of the
operational pipework to establish that the movement of the system is within the
design parameters. Cold surveys are conducted during the course of the unit
overhaul. Hot surveys are carried out when the unit is operating at full load
and has been in operation through a minimum of two thermal cycles or eight weeks
sustained operation.
The site inspection is completed by recording and reporting any
observed defects that are present with recommendations to correct the defect.
Minor faults can be repaired by a subcontractor under the supervision of the
Bennett Associates engineer. The engineer then records the final condition of
all the systems, supports and steelwork and the conformity to design and
standards. If supports do not fully comply with the standards, a ‘fitness for
purpose’ assessment is made and recommendations for modification are submitted.
A data set for all the pipework systems is created or updated as
required. This comprises all known data concerning the pipework systems and is
amended as a consequence of the audits, inspections, surveys and design
modifications performed.
