Quest Integrity provides high-level engineering consulting and advanced inspection services, and is the industry leader in fitness-for-service assessments.Fitness-for-service (FFS) assessment is a multi-disciplinary approach to determine whether equipment is fit for continued operation. The equipment or system in question may contains flaws or other damage, or may be subjected to more severe operating conditions than anticipated by the original design. The outcome of a fitness-for-service assessment is a decision to run as is, repair, re-rate, alter or retire the equipment. A remaining life analysis may also be performed as part of the assessment, which is used to set future inspection intervals and to budget for capital expenditures when retiring existing equipment.Quest Integrity’s analysis capabilities include:Stress analyses of vessels with complex geometriesRemaining life assessment for fatigue, creep, creep crack growth and corrosionFracture analyses including 3D crack meshing and automatic mesh generation for corrosion damageModal analyses, including random vibration analyses combined with vibration measurementsDetermination of weld residual stresses, per API 579/ASME FFS-1 or using FEA simulations of welding processesCoupled heat transfer-mechanical simulations with temperature dependent material propertiesNon-linear material behavior including plasticity and creep,Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to calculate temperatures and pressuresMetallurgical examinations and analyses, including root cause and failure analysis
