ROSEN Group to introduce integrity management solution

Every asset is unique in its mechanical characteristics, operational conditions, physical location, and applicable legislation and/or technical standards. Although the general methods and techniques of identifying and managing the various integrity threats have been normalised over the last decades, the interpretation of standards and regulations as well as their application still differs greatly between operators. A uniform approach to asset integrity management is therefore downright impossible.

Additionally, more and more regulations now require that all pipeline records be traceable, verifiable and complete. However, with the amounts of collected data steadily growing, the establishment of a system of record where all available data is readily accessible is becoming an increasingly critical issue for pipeline operators.

Fully integrated into ESRI ArcGIS Pro, and thus providing the full power of ArcGIS Pipeline Referencing, NIMA offers an intuitive and reliable way to keep pipeline records traceable, verifiable and complete. Furthermore, it is a platform that allows for the autonomous definition and modification of integrity management processes and integrated algorithms as needed. Not restricted to a set of predefined functionalities, it offers the user unlimited options in terms of adaptation to individual requirements as new process templates can be created and existing ones altered at any point in time.

NIMA comes with a certified standard set of templates for the most common integrity management processes. These processes are developed by ROSEN’s in-house integrity assessment engineers and have proven their practicability in numerous integrity assessments. Moreover, NIMA allows users to digitise their own processes and share them with colleagues and even with other operators, always allowing for individual adaptations. This way, users participate in an industry-wide knowledge exchange.

Backed by the expertise of ROSEN’s specialised, multidisciplinary integrity management team, NIMA provides customers with different levels of support, ranging from instant remote execution of tasks straight on their cloud platform instance to expert advice on a specific integrity issue to the training of their personnel.
