RLA / RLE & Fitness-for-Service (FFS).

By proactively evaluating the health of your heavy machinery and processing facilities, we identify potential failures before they happen. Our structural integrity assessments help you maintain secure, dependable operations, lower operational risks, and significantly boost equipment uptime, ultimately saving your facility from the massive costs associated with unplanned downtime and catastrophic failures.

A Level-3 Fitness for Service (FFS) assessment is a highly sophisticated, data-driven analysis used to evaluate the structural soundness of aging or degraded machinery. You need this assessment when standard inspections reveal wear, and you require precise, data-backed engineering intelligence to determine permissible stress thresholds and confirm overall structural stability under various load conditions.

As industrial infrastructure matures, replacing equipment prematurely can be a massive capital expense. Our RLA services evaluate high-temperature, high-pressure piping systems and other critical assets to accurately determine their remnant life. We provide actionable, customized life extension advisory services that allow operators to safely maximize their equipment's lifespan while fully complying with regulatory codes.

We don't just provide data; we provide conclusive engineering verdicts through detailed Engineering Critical Analyses (ECA). When your equipment shows signs of structural damage, we give clear, practical guidance so you can confidently choose to safely repair the equipment, prolong its working life through ongoing FFS monitoring, or safely retire it to avoid failure.

Strict adherence to industry regulations is foundational to our services. Our structural integrity and remnant life studies seamlessly integrate physical inspection findings with stringent code evaluations, including the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (B&PV), API 579, DNVGL, IS, and ASME B31.2/B31.3 frameworks.

We tailor our structural health evaluations specifically for heavy machinery, processing facilities, and the broader energy industry. Our core specializations include offshore facilities, oil and gas infrastructure, thermal and nuclear power generation components, complex piping networks, stationary machinery, and static equipment.

To help our clients future-proof their operations, we are leading the digital transformation in asset management. We integrate Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) Digital Twins, Cloud computing, and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to upgrade your monitoring capabilities, allowing for smarter, real-time tracking of structural integrity.

Our seasoned project managers and engineers utilize cutting-edge computational methods to understand material degradation. This includes advanced multi-physics modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and non-linear Finite Element Analysis (FEA). By accounting for the impacts of pitting, erosion, crack propagation, and creep-fatigue interaction, we can definitively determine the remaining strength of your assets.

Yes. We are highly skilled in conducting targeted RLA programs and Level-3 FFS for complex piping networks across both onshore and offshore environments. Our engineers utilize advanced FEA sub-modeling techniques — flawlessly integrating 1D pipe elements with intricate 3D models — to achieve exceptionally precise stress evaluations for piping systems.

ProSIM stands at the forefront of the industry by combining cutting-edge computational methods with profound materials science knowledge. We partner with energy sector owners not just to run tests, but to streamline asset management, boost productivity, and maximize ROI. We deliver top-tier engineering judgments that empower executives and procurement teams to make confident, safe, and highly cost-effective lifecycle decisions.
