Table 1. Resolved Issues
NoteTracking ID(s)
Previously, when you were using a Risk Matrix other than Default or Standard Practice Risk Matrix, the categories defined in the MI_RISK_CATEGORY System Code Table had to be capitalized to correctly map RBI risk values. This issue has been resolved. Now, the values do not have to be capitalized.DE104014

When viewing an analysis in the RBI module, you can now make changes to the analysis only if it is in the Created state. When you change the state of the analysis to any other state, the analysis and related records cannot be modified, and the Save button () is not available.
Note:

The following fields in the Degradation Mechanism family are no longer editable:

  • Mitigated Risk
  • Mitigated Financial Risk
US304996
You can now use a utility to generate Risk Assessment records for active RBI Criticality Analyses and RBI 581 Risk Analyses that do not have Risk Assessment records. Also, for the active RBI Criticality Analyses, the utility will calculate and set Half-Life for any related Ext. Corr. Deg. Mech Evaluations where the value is blank.

After the utility is executed, the RBI 580 and RBI 581 analyses can be promoted to ASM, and RBI Recommendations can be generated for the active RBI 580 analyses with Ext. Corr. Deg. Mech Evaluations.

US272821
To reflect the changes in Addendum-1 of API-581 3rd Edition, the Component Damage and Personal Injury Area calculations for Type-1 flammable fluids have been modified as follows:
  • The Consequence Area is determined based on the combination of Release Type and if the Operating Temperature is greater than the Auto Ignition Temperature.
  • The Blending and the Autoignition Temperature factors are not considered in the calculations for Type-1 flammable fluids.
US322083
You can now promote an Asset to Asset Strategy Management if all the RBI Components within the Asset contain an RBI Analysis in any of the following states:
  • Pending Approval
  • Approved
  • Implemented
US272476
You can now show or hide the analyses that are in the Archived state in the Component Overview page. To facilitate this enhancement, a new option, Hide Archived Analyses has been added to the Component Overview page.F38674
Table 3. Resolved Issues
NoteTracking ID(s)
Previously, when you were using a Risk Matrix other than Default or Standard Practice Risk Matrix, the categories defined in the MI_RISK_CATEGORY System Code Table had to be capitalized to correctly map RBI risk values. This issue has been resolved. Now, the values do not have to be capitalized.DE103968
Previously, if the Asset Hierarchy was configured to use the Equipment Has Equipment relationship, the Asset Hierarchy navigation links could not differentiate between a parent Equipment and a child Equipment. This issue has been resolved. DE103536

Previously, when you attempted to select an RBI Component from the Asset Details page, an error occurred. This issue has been resolved.DE90981
Previously, in an RBI Component or RBI Analysis, in the Design Details section, the Stress Lookup Table field was not translated. This issue has been resolved. Now, the Stress Lookup Table field is populated by the MI_STRESS_LOOKUP_TABLE System Code Table, which is translated to the appropriate culture setting.DE90270
Previously, in an Oracle database, when you calculated multiple assets in bulk that had more than 500 collective analyses, a timeout error occurred. This issue has been resolved. DE88531
Previously, the allowable stress and flow stress values for a Pressure Vessel component were populated incorrectly if you used the following combination of values:
  • Stress Lookup Table: Pressure Vessels
  • Base Material Construction Code: ASME VIII DIV 1
  • Base Material Code Year: 2010
  • Base Material Spec: SA-387
  • Base Material Grade: Class 1 or Class 2 (for example, 11-CL2)

This issue has been resolved.

DE87370
Previously, if a component had an analysis in the Approved state and, in the same component, you changed the status of another analysis to make it active, the previously active analysis was not moved to the Archived state automatically. This issue has been resolved.DE92905
Previously, if your culture setting had a culture other than English, and you accessed the Risk Based Inspection Overview page, the following elements were not translated to the language based on your culture setting:
  • Names of the widgets
  • Column names in the widgets
This issue has been resolved.

You can now configure the calculation of RBI Criticality Analysis as per your requirement without modifying the baseline rules. You can configure the calculation in one or more of the following steps:
  • During analysis validation.
  • During validation and calculation of consequence evaluation (CE).
  • During validation and calculation of degradation mechanism evaluation (DME).
  • During roll-up of CoF values to Degradation Mechanism (DM) records.
  • During roll-up of PoF values to Analysis.
To facilitate this enhancement, following changes have been made:
  • The RBI 580 Flexible Calculation Preferences workspace has been added in RBI Application Settings to configure the flexible calculation, validation, and output preferences.
  • The RBI Overview Preferences workspace has been added in RBI Application Settings to configure the RBI Component Overview, Corrosion Loop Overview, Asset Overview, and Process Unit Overview pages.
  • The RBI Overview What-If Display Preference option has been added to RBI Overview Preferences workspace to enable the display of most recent What-If analysis risk on each component in the Asset and Corrosion Loop overview tables.
  • The None option has been added to the RBI Overview Graph Preference drop-down list box to disable the display of any type of graphs.
  • The following families have been renamed:

Table 5. Resolved Issues
NoteTracking ID(s)

Previously, when you calculated an RBI Criticality Analysis for a Heat Exchanger Bundle component, the following incorrect validations were performed:

  • The values in the Operating Pressure and Operating Temperature fields that were mapped from the shell side values on the RBI component were compared with the values in the Design Pressure and Design Temperature fields, respectively, which were mapped from the channel side values from the component.
  • The values in the Tube Operating Press Channel and Tube Operating Temp Channel fields were not compared with the design values.
These issues have been resolved. Now, the following validations are performed:
  • The values in the Operating Pressure and Operating Temperature fields that are mapped to the shell side values on the RBI Component are not compared with the design values.
  • The values in the Tube Operating Press Channel and Tube Operating Temp Channel fields are compared with the values in the Design Pressure and Design Temperature fields, respectively.
DE94278
Previously, in an RBI Consequence Evaluation, the Consequence field was not translated. This issue has been resolved. The Consequence field now displays the system code description of the MI_CONSEQUENCE_TYPES system code table and is translated to the appropriate culture setting.DE94112
Previously, in an RBI Component or RBI analysis, the Stress Lookup Table field was not translated. This issue has been resolved. Now, the Stress Lookup Table is populated with the MI_STRESS_LOOKUP_TABLE system code table description, which is translated to the appropriate culture setting.DE90270
Previously, the information on the valid values for the Selected Corrosion Rate field was incorrect in the Data Loaders section of the Risk Based Inspection (RBI) 580 user documentation. This issue has been resolved. DE98980
