Mechanical Integrity
Mechanical integrity programs keep pressure equipment operating safely between turnarounds. SIS supports API 510 vessel, API 570 piping, and API 653 tank integrity work, STI SP001 aboveground storage tank assessments, and isometric/CAD documentation that gives your engineering team accurate as-built records.
Mechanical integrity services at Superior Integrity Services support API 510 pressure vessel, API 570 piping, and API 653 storage tank inspection programs, plus STI SP001 aboveground storage tank assessments and isometric/CAD documentation. The work keeps pressure equipment compliant between turnarounds and gives engineering teams accurate as-built records and IMP-ready summary packages.

Common questions
Mechanical Integrity FAQs
What API inspection codes does SIS mechanical integrity cover?
SIS supports API 510 pressure vessel inspection, API 570 piping circuit inspection, and API 653 storage tank integrity assessments, plus STI SP001 for small shop-built tanks — all performed to code and client procedures.
What does an API 570 piping inspection include?
API 570 work covers piping circuit inspection, corrosion monitoring points, and turnaround scope support, with thickness and corrosion records delivered for engineering disposition.
Does SIS provide isometric and CAD drawings?
Yes. SIS produces isometric piping documentation, as-built updates, and CAD deliverables so your engineering team has accurate records after inspections or modification projects.
What is STI SP001 and when does it apply?
STI SP001 is the inspection standard for small shop-built aboveground storage tanks. SIS performs SP001 inspections as part of routine maintenance programs alongside API 653 work on larger field-erected tanks.
What deliverables come with a mechanical integrity scope?
Deliverables include inspection reports aligned to API codes, thickness and corrosion records, isometric and CAD documentation, and RBI and IMP-ready summary packages.
