Development and Application of SSC-level Reliability / Availability Targets in Risk Management

This panel will focus on two complementary undertakings: (1) RAMI (Reliability Availability Maintainability Inspectability), and (2) RIM (Reliability Integrity Management). Both involve setting targets for their respective “ilities” and managing plants to meet those targets. Setting those targets to address multiple objectives (safety, availability, cost, …) is challenging, because to some extent those objectives compete. Panelists will focus on experience in meeting that challenge.
