Processing and Manufacturing Plants like other industries have realised the benefits that remote visual inspections can offer in terms of reducing the time taken to carry out preventative or corrective works to plant and machinery. The time and costs involved in dismantling equipment before any work has even commenced is cut drastically by implementing a RVI prior to any work.
An example would be the internal inspection of pipe-work, which can be carried out using existing drain valves negating the need to cut open welded flanges. When you consider the scale of these sites this can represent a tangible benefit amounting to many saved man-hours.
