Background Pressure vessels subjected to improper or non-uniform post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) may experience permanent geometric distortions. These distortions commonly manifest as weld misalignment, ovality, or […]
Background Local Thin Area Fitness-For-Service Assessment, Localized thinning of pressure vessel shells is a common integrity concern, particularly in aging equipment exposed to corrosive process environments. […]
Background HIC Fitness-For-Service Assessment, A high-pressure separator vessel constructed in 1980 in accordance with ASME Section VIII, Division 2 was subjected to detailed inspection following concerns […]
Background General metal loss caused by long-term corrosion is one of the most common degradation mechanisms in carbon steel piping systems operating in refinery and petrochemical […]
Background Brittle Fracture Assessment of a Vertical Pressure Vessel. Older pressure vessels constructed before mandatory impact testing requirements often present an increased risk of brittle fracture, […]
ANALYZER was approached to evaluate the design of a newly developed pump assembly for a nuclear power plant to ensure its reliability according to the design parameters and seismic qualifications outlined in ASME BPVC Sec. III sub-sections NB, NC, ND & NF.
