Mechanical Integrity & Inspections

Our philosophy and approach ensure that our program implementations are comprehensive, accurate, and of the highest quality. Our emphasis is on long-term projects and client partnerships.

Trinity supports all aspects of implementing and executing a fixed equipment Mechanical Integrity (MI) and Inspection program. A complete MI program should account for the entire equipment lifecycle, and each stage of the equipment lifecycle requires specific activities that should be performed from a MI perspective. This ensures the safe operation and reliability of the equipment.

Pre-Operation

Equipment Design Validation
Vendor Shop Audits and Quality Assurance Inspection during Fabrication
Field Inspection to Confirm Proper Installation and Document Initial (Baseline) Equipment Condition
