Export models from standard systems such as — AVEVA™, Navisworks™, AutoCAD™, SolidWorks™, Revit™, PDMS™ and E3D™ —
03
2D photographs
Standard photographs are transformed automatically into 3D models — no specialist capture equipment needed.
04
Other sources
Photogrammetry, drone imagery and neutral formats such as STEP, IFC, OBJ and glTF complete the picture.

Example 01
Material & design code
Cross-checks the material of construction against the governing design code. A designation the code does not recognise is flagged before it propagates into design.
ASME B31.3 · API 570 · API 581Example 02
Minimum allowable thickness
Calculates MAWT from design pressure, diameter and material properties — and flags thickness that does not reconcile with the recorded corrosion allowance and remaining life.
MAWT · tmin · remaining lifeExample 03
Corrosion rate
Sense-checks assigned corrosion rates against inspection history. A rate that is physically impossible — negative, or one that contradicts the recorded end-of-life — is caught.

07 · Monte Carlo Simulation
Monte Carlo Simulation
Taking API 581 to the next level by quantifying the true range of possible risk outcomes.
Monte Carlo Simulation
API 581 damage models, sampled thousands of times — the range of outcomes and the probability of each.
At a glance
Fast simulation based on the Credo Integrity data. Visualise results in a detailed dashboard. Control the simulation with a confidence level and a date range.
The method
The Monte Carlo simulation is a powerful data science tool that is used to quantify the uncertainty in the API 581 risk assessment.
01
Safety — the risk in the tail
Safety is a question about the tail of a distribution, not its middle — the mean serves the cost objective, the tail serves the safety constraint. Simulation reports the probability that a risk target or a thickness limit is crossed by a given date, held against a tolerance the company sets for itself.
02
Efficiency — the spending decision
An inspection interval is a spending decision. Simulation moves intervals in both directions, shows which inputs actually drive the answer, and sizes turnaround scope at a confidence the business can budget against.
03
A layer, not a programme
The method is mature and the framework already exists. Simulation runs the same API 581 engine the compliance result comes from — no second physics to maintain, and no second answer to reconcile.
| The question | Deterministic · API 581 | Probabilistic · Monte Carlo |
|---|---|---|
| When must we act? | A date | A date at a confidence we chose |
| How much risk are we carrying? | A band | The probability of each band |
| Where should the budget go? | A risk ranking | A ranking by value, not by severity alone |
In one line API 581 answers the standard’s question. Monte Carlo answers the operator’s.

10 · Path to Deployment
Path to Deployment
Thirty years of successful global deployments — hundreds of projects, from single plants to multinational enterprises.
01
Data migration is the core milestone
The system is only as good as the data it holds. Moving, merging and shaping the multi-year archive is the milestone every later capability depends on.
02
Merge the silos — or inherit the friction
Legacy data lives in spreadsheets, documents and disconnected database silos. If they are not genuinely merged, the new system relocates the fragmentation rather than removing it.
03
Speed de-risks the delivery
Long projects lose momentum, key people and executive support. Delivering a working core early, then enhancing incrementally, keeps the project alive and trusted.
