Flange Integrity Management Toolbox

“If you do it right, each flange is tight.”

Might sound strange, but it is true. Always.

Flange leaks result in start-up losses. To prevent this from happening, PDM has developed a complete improvement program: Flange Integrity Management (FIM). With this approach, we guarantee our customers that they do not suffer any start-up losses due to flange leaks and no leaks during the first year as a result of the activities in the turnaround (TA).

Our FIM Toolbox contains all tools your organization needs before, during, and after a turnaround. The FIM approach has proven itself in recent years. Based on these experiences we have created a new version of our FIM Toolbox, in which management and steering information is available even quicker. Possible quality threats can be managed more efficiently by applying a special app for registering FIM inspections.

On the total budget of a turnaround the costs of applying FIM are minimal. Especially compared to the considerable savings potential that can be achieved (no start-up delays, substantially less re-work, no unplanned stops…). Based on the specifics of your organization and the planned maintenance efforts, we can discuss the positive business case to see which potential FIM can achieve. FIM improves quality and safety, and by doing so also saves money.
