API 580 outlines the required contents of an inspection plan in Section 12.3 and also in the "Output" section:

“The RBI inspection plan should include:

b) inspection methods that should be used;

c) extent of inspection (percent of total area to be examined or specific locations);

d) inspection interval or next inspection date (timing).”​

Therefore, "examination methods to be used" is a fundamental part of the inspection plan, as explicitly stated. Probability and consequence of failure are inputs to the risk analysis but not part of the inspection plan structure itself.
