| Abstract | This paper provides a synopsis of a MS AccessTM, Asset Management System (AMS) for tabulating and managing results of a Risk Based Inspection (RBI) programme for geothermal Fluid Collection and Reinjection Systems (FCRS). Demonstration results are given for FCRS operated by PNOC Energy Development Corporation, The Philippines. The software programme provides methodologies for predicting corrosion and metallurgical damage processes encountered in geothermal process fluids as used in energy plant and equipment. The AMS provides opportunity for risk minimisation through optimisation of inspection and maintenance practices by identifying critical and at-risk components. This allows planned maintenance and targeted process or plant configuration changes that minimise the consequences of failure. |
