Study Guide for Source Inspectionand Quality Surveillance ofRotating EquipmentREVISION T 22OCTOBER 2018
ForewordThis guide has been developed to provide information for source inspectors for the purpose of providing a consistentmethod of Vendor quality surveillance for the oil, petrochemical and gas industries. It is intended as a resource forindividuals studying to take the API Source Inspector Certification examination. Other references contained hereinand in the published Body of Knowledge (BOK) will also be necessary for individuals to become familiar with in orderto pass the examination and to perform satisfactorily in the source inspection job. This study guide is also intended asa draft from which an API Recommended Practice for Source Inspection could eventually be formulated andpublished utilizing the ANSI standardization process.iii

Guide for Source Inspection andQuality Surveillance of Rotating Equipment1ScopeThis study guide covers the process of providing quality inspection of equipment used in the oil,petrochemical, and gas industry, including upstream, midstream, and downstream segments. This guide maybe used as the basis for providing a systematic approach to source inspection to ensure that mechanicalrotating equipment purchased meets the requirements specified in project documents and contracts. Theactivities outlined in this study guide are not intended to replace the manufacturer’s own quality system.This study guide focuses primarily on mechanical rotating equipment, including but not limited to pumps,gears, compressors, turbines, etc., and associated appurtenances. This document assumes that vendorshave been prequalified by a systematic quality review process of their facilities and quality process todetermine if the facility has the ability to meet the requirements of the contractual agreements. That processgenerally leads to a list of preapproved vendors deemed acceptable to the supply chain management of thepurchaser and capable of meeting the requirements of the contract prior to it being placed. Vendors on sucha list will normally have an acceptable quality process already in place that meets the requirements of thecontract. The purpose of source inspection in such a case is simply to verify that the vendor quality processis working as it should and to verify that certain vital steps in the inspection and test plan (ITP) have beensatisfactorily accomplished prior to manufacturing completion and/or shipping.The primary purpose of this study guide is to assist candidates intending to take the API source inspectorexamination to become certified source inspectors for mechanical rotating equipment. The study guideoutlines the fundamentals of source inspection and may be useful to all personnel conducting such activitiesto perform their jobs in a competent and ethical manner. For more information on how to apply for the APISource Inspector Rotating Equipment Certification, please visit the API website at www.api.org/icpprogramsand select “API SIRE – Source Inspector Rotating Equipment” to find out more.The Source Inspector (SI) exam contains 100 multiple-choice questions targeting the core knowledgenecessary to perform source inspection of mechanical rotating equipment. The focus of the exam is onsource inspection issues and activities rather than design or engineering knowledge contained in thereference standards. The exam is closed book and administered via computer-based testing (CBT). Thequestions address mechanical rotating equipment inspection/surveillance issues that could be encounteredby persons who have experience working as source inspectors or persons intending to work as sourceinspectors and who have studied the material in this study guide and the associated reference materials.2ReferencesThe following standards or other recommended practices are referenced in this study guide and are thedocuments from which the Source Inspector (SI) exam has been developed.API—American Petroleum InstituteNumberTitleAPI RP 578Material Verification Program for New and Existing Alloy Piping SystemsAPI 610Centrifugal Pumps for Petroleum, Petrochemical and Natural Gas IndustriesAPI 611General-Purpose Steam Turbines for Petroleum, Chemical, and Gas IndustryServicesAPI 612Petroleum, Petrochemical and Natural Gas Industries–Steam Turbines–Specialpurpose ApplicationsAPI 613Special Purpose Gear Units for Petroleum, Chemical and Gas Industry Services
