Chemical treatment of reservoir fluids within the wellbore is essential for the control of associated corrosion and scale deposition. The Wafra Risk Assessment was developed with the Likelihood of Failure (LoF) based on historical corrosion well workover failures and the Consequence of Failure (CoF) directly tied to oil daily oil production.

Over 5 years, 70 to 80 FGD scrubber units have exhibited corrosion problems. Many were after only a few months of service. This paper will provide an overview of readily available technical information in the published literature and past experience that could have been used to minimize corrosion problems in these FGD units.
Drill collars are thick-walled pipes that provide stiffness and concentration of mass at or near the bit and are among the main components of the bottom-hole assembly (BHA). The non-magnetic drill collars (NMDCs) represent a sub-category of proprietary drill collars that enable magnetic surveying and directional drilling. Due to their cross-section, NMDCs are inherently heavy and can convey a strong push on the drill bit itself, minimizing cutting instability problems, while their strength is sufficient to prevent buckling while drilling.
Although the form and function of a well-designed building are important, it is the long-term performance and durability of a building and its components that will be important to the owner(s) and occupants. Therefore, during the design of buildings, the selection of the appropriate materials and understanding the long-term performance of the specified materials exposed to various site-specific environmental conditions is critical in avoiding the potential “failure by design”. The case study presented will focus on the coating failure by design, that could have been avoided by the original design and construction team and resulted in costly litigation and eventually the complete removal of a key architectural element on two high-rise condominium buildings located along the Florida coastline
This paper will explore the process of conducting asset integrity management systems and the potential use for the existing facility data to analyze integrity status and predict any breach of integrity that would cause a direct major incident. In the dawn of the 4th industrial revolution and in the age of automation and artificial intelligence, asset integrity management systems are being integrated into a more sophisticated process of verification. Programs are being used to collect necessary risk-based data from inspection, maintenance programs and operational checklists in order to rationalize the integrity status and alert proponents of possible breach of integrity. These systems are more efficient than humans in predicting possible failures based on collective data from several critical elements from a facility and calculate the probability of failure based on the current integrity status. It is possible to optimize such systems to eliminate the human error factor and optimize inspection, maintenance and operation programs to better manage asset integrity. The result would be a software that would provide an overview of the plant’s integrity status and provide early alerts of any incoming incident event which allows the facility’s management to act accordingly and direct resources for effective prevention and mitigation.
