... based on number of factors such as; production handling, equipment integrity, impact on startup, redundancy, and environment risk etc. These alongside samples of the post-inspection findings of the equipment will be highlighted and discussed Chemical treatment CoF damage mechanism inspection KPI...

... this challenge and propose procedural applications to improve the repeatability and reliability of results. procedure NDE material verification grade yield strength determination sampling 192.607 INTRODUCTION The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) of the U.S. Department...

... metrics, in terms of sizing are presented in this paper. The application of methods and criteria described in API 1163 for rejection and acceptance of assumed tool tolerance are discussed. Methods for sampling in-line tool results for verification are also presented and compared. ILI tool performance API...

...Abstract The operators and managers of boiler systems must capture representative and valid samples if they are to judge their current operations and plan a meaningful course of improvement for the future. This paper addresses the questions of what to sample, where to sample, how to sample...

...The key to this dilemma, and the one expression everyone comes back to is the term "Requirements”. This is the only way to allocate resources designed to fit the need. There is no point spending a lot of money on samples that are not representative of the condition of interest - for operations...

...The intent of this paper is to present a perspective on the changes in sampling, storage, and handling of water and condensed steam from the time of exclusive grab sampling to the current methodology of on-line monitoring plus a look at the future emerging technologies for in-situ monitoring...

...EPRI Project RP 2712-2 prepared a report ¹ defining the state of the art in sampling, analysis, and control as applied to domestic fossil power plants. According to the report, specific guidelines should be followed to obtain representative samples: Use a constant and continuous sample...

... control program. SAMPLING There is another fast and easy method for obtaining samples which requires essentially no equipment other than deionized water and a calibrated collection vessel. The vessel is filled 90% with deionized water and the remaining 10% of the volume is filled with the produced brine...

... determined using a large analytical database. Copper in the feedwater, boiler water, and condensate revealed specific behavior depending on the type of industry and sample location. Proper sampling and analytical techniques developed for low-level copper allow accurate diagnoses of system problems, prior...
