Ana Benz will present ” In-Service Damage Mechanisms and the Non-destructive Examinations that Aid in their Identification” during the 2024 IPEIA Conference on Tuesday, February 27, from 1:00 until 1:45 PM in Ballroom B. If you’re at the event and can participate in the presentation, Ana would be happy to discuss the topic further. Also, visit Booth #53 from February
IRISNDT are pleased to be sponsors and exhibitors at the EEMUA Inspection Seminar in Aberdeen on Non-Conventional Techniques. We are exhibiting our CEMS service for continuous UT Thickness measurements, QSR1 and QSR Axial for quantifying Corrosion Under Pipe Supports (CUPS), Handheld Laser scanning for accurate measurements of external corrosion and the HoloGrid mixed reality for grid UT scanning of piping
Only the fittings in the intermittent service steel piping developed pits, and the straight pipe sections were unblemished. Why? The fittings had lower “residual elements” than the pipe. Seemingly minimal compositional differences can result in the preferential attack of steel components in services with acids – including in somewhat acidified water, like the pitted line shown. In some lines, the
IRISNDT CEMS continuous wall thickness measurements ideal for corrosion/erosion monitoring of critical assets across refining, oil & gas, power generation, utilities, renewables and mining industries. Powered by Ionix Advanced Technologies Ltd Hotsense technology, IRISNDT CEMS provides:– Frequent data collection to reduce operational costs and increase production revenues– Consistent and accurate data; fixed point removes variables of equipmentand personnel– Prevents loss
One hundred twenty pigtails required radiography during a turnaround. Inspections and testing must always be performed while minimizing site disruptions. During turnarounds, however, the stakes are even higher than during normal operations. So, how was the task accomplished? As a first step, the customer provided IRISNDT with mock-ups of the pigtail welds. IRISNDT personnel then experimented with different setups such
Important Code Changes. Our IRISNDT Engineering group highlights changes to the 2020 edition of ASME B31.3 Process Piping Code, to be enforced in the next year, which will impact fabricators and owners of existing piping: Until now, weld metal deposits needed impact test qualifications at minimum design metal temperature (MDMT) of -29°C (-20°F) or lower. In the 2020 edition, the
To the eye, metal surfaces restored after removing coatings or paint with laser appear to be as good as sandblasted surfaces. Are they? To assess this, IRISNDT performed comparative tests all on one plate which had been originally media blasted and coated. Some sections of the originally coated plate were laser cleaned while others were media blasted before being recoated.
Join us for our next Live Event, titled “Overcoming the Challenge of P91 Steam Piping Cracks”. P91 is a common material used in components that run at high temperatures and pressure in modern power plants and refineries. It has been a very successful material, but there are issues with it that need to be understood to ensure safe and reliable operation.
Condition monitoring Locations (CMLs) are used in plant process piping to provide long term metal loss trends in support of asset integrity programs. This presentation overviews the various ways these CMLs can be optimized to ensure that the condition monitoring program is effective for the process conditions, damage mechanisms, and risk. It is important that you have confidence that you
