Re: PSSR System

What kind of system is already existing for PSSR?
Paper based, how the review & approval signatures are taken?
Is some part already digitized in all this or everything is just paper based?

Re: Failure of piping sockolet /weldolet

Inherent weld defect obviously could have contributed to this failure.
Some failure analysis should actually take you to that conclusion.
However, at the start of all this investigation, keep all the causes in front.
Design deficiency sure can contribute very well as these connections upon certain ...

Re: Abnormal noise from Pressure Vessel with Internals

Just check if such sound has already been reported before (operators may confirm you this), and after that was there any internal inspection performed with any findings?
This would provide you some confidence.
The most common cause would be an internal component vibration which may include loose ...

Re: Failure of piping sockolet /weldolet

I believe Even with no vibration that even when there is no vibration, excessive loading due to unsupported branch piping weight, valve weight hanging from the branch, instrument manifold weight, thermal expansion loads, settlement of supports, misalignment during installation can cause the o-let ...

Re: Common failure of Finfan Coolers

Internal corrosion in air cooled fin fan heat exchanger tubes usually develops when the process fluid becomes chemically aggressive, contaminated, stagnant, or operates in conditions favoring corrosion mechanisms. In hydrocarbon service, the problem is often a combination of water presence ...

TCG & DAC in Pulse Echo Testing

While performing pulse echo testing what is TCG and how it is different from DAC?
Is it something related to fixed gain & the one which can be changed in TCG?
