TÜV Rheinland Strengthens Industry Confidence with Advanced SmartRBI Services for Optimized Asset Integrity Management

Data-Driven Risk Based Inspection Approach Helps Operators Enhance Safety, Reduce Costs, and Improve Reliability Across Complex Industrial Facilities.

DUBAI, UAE, Dec. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- TÜV Rheinland, a global leader in independent testing and certification, is enabling industrial operators to elevate their asset integrity programs through its advanced SmartRBI (Smart Risk Based Inspection) services - an analytics-driven methodology that transforms how organizations plan inspections, assess risk, and protect critical equipment.

SmartRBI has long been a cornerstone of TÜV Rheinland's asset-integrity portfolio, supporting companies in oil and gas, petrochemicals, power generation, manufacturing, metals and other process industries as they move from traditional, time-based inspections to predictive, risk-focused maintenance strategies. By combining engineering expertise with intelligent algorithms and detailed data models, SmartRBI empowers operators to shift from fixed inspection cycles to a dynamic, risk-aligned approach that prioritizes equipment based on actual operating conditions.

Full Suite of SmartRBI Services

TÜV Rheinland delivers a comprehensive portfolio of SmartRBI services tailored to each operator's asset base, regulatory requirements, and operational goals, including:

• Complete RBI studies for high-priority equipment and piping
• Screening and prioritization assessments to confirm RBI applicability
• Targeted inspection plans aligned with specific risk and degradation mechanisms
• Data gathering, validation, and resolution of design, operational, and maintenance gaps
• Integration support for RBI software and digital asset-management platforms
• Regular review and revalidation to ensure inspection plans evolve with facility changes

Collectively, these services help operators maintain a defensible, standards-aligned, and audit-ready integrity management program - ultimately improving safety, plant availability, and long-term asset performance.

"At TÜV Rheinland, we view SmartRBI as a proven methodology that enables organisations to take control of their asset integrity through data-driven intelligence," said Mr. Anselmann, Senior Vice President, Industrial Services & Cybersecurity IMEA. "By combining strong engineering knowledge with smart analytical tools, we help our clients optimise their inspection strategies, safeguard essential equipment and operate with greater confidence. Our goal is to ensure maintenance actions are timely, transparent, and aligned with global best practices - supporting the highest standards of safety and operational efficiency."
