AN EXAMPLE ON ETHICS IN ENGINEERING

Nowadays, integrity is one of the key roles in ethics engineering.
So what integrity really is ?
Technical Integrity Engineering is a term applied to the engineering
disciplines associated with the design, assurance, and verification functions
that ensure a product, process, or system meets its appropriate and intended
requirements under stated operating conditions. Application of these
disciplines minimizes the cost, schedule, technical, and legal risks of a
program and improves the overall life cycle cost.
Integrity Engineers may be required to manage, develop, or conduct the
following
 A high-level integrity management philosophy which includes
verification and assurance of facilities (Basic repair methods and
strategies, Static equipment repair and temporary repairs, Fabric
maintenance, Corrosion Engineering, Inspection Engineering,
Chemical management, and Maintenance Management)
 A Competency Management scheme
 An RBI analysis
 Integrity processes. i.e. Write Risk-Based Inspection methodologies,
Temporary Repair methodologies, Maintenance Strategies,
Mechanical Integrity Management Strategy (MIMS), Structural
Integrity Management Strategy (SIMS), Pipeline Integrity
Management Strategy (PIMS), Well Integrity Management System
(WIMS), and create corrosion circuits for the plant process
 Verification Schemes and performance Standards management
 Conduct Life extension studies
 A Fitness-for-service review
 Supervise, witness, and participate in the certification process of
hydro tests and load tests of lifting devices and cylinders
  Supervise, witness, and participate in the certification process of
hydro tests and load tests of lifting devices and cylinders
 So on …
Integrity Engineering encompasses the concept of:
 Organize, review, analyze, improve and control cycle

 Consistency of actions, values, methods, measures, principles,

expectations, and outcomes
 An undivided or unbroken completeness or totality with nothing
wanting
 Knowledge of many interfaces of technology
 Balancing and countering the materials degradation process during
the in-service life cycle of equipment
 Ensuring the recommended risk mitigation actions derived from
the RBI study are implemented
 Ensuring inspection intervals are not exceeded
 Ensuring resources are available for RBI Assessments
This may be applied to management, machines, devices, systems,
materials, and processes that safely realize improvements to the lives of
assets.
