Midstream Damage Mechanism Review – Fundamentals of Amine Treating Units
Across the midstream industry, most of the active corrosion is typically found in amine units. Often material selection, operating conditions, and amine quality are contributing factors that affect corrosion. During this webinar, the presenters will discuss how to identify the regions where active corrosion will most likely be found and why this information is important […]
Updating Structural Minimum Thickness Values per API 574
To manage piping systems for safe operation, an active mechanical integrity program needs to focus on piping inspection and provide guidance on acceptable limits for the piping thickness readings being obtained. Unlike vessels, piping required structural minimum thickness is not solely governed by stress due to pressure only but can also be governed by external […]

From Process Safety Management to Pressure Relief Devices – Do We Ever Connect the Two?
Two groups within a processing plant rarely interact, but each has a vested interest in the reliability of pressure relief devices. The PSM group performs process hazards analyses (PHAs) to determine the required safeguards a process needs to meet the company’s risk target. A major safeguard for reducing risk is the pressure relief device (PRD), […]
