A Prediction and Inspection Technology for Detecting the Corrosion Under Insulation

Product Number: MPWT19-15162

Author: Ayman Amer, Ali Al Shehri, Vincent Cunningham, Ihsan Taie

Publication Date: 2019

$0.00

Corrosion under insulation (CUI) is a critical challenge that affects the integrity of assets for which the oil and gas industry is not immune. Over the last few decades, both downstream and upstream industry segments have recognized the magnitude of CUI and challenges faced by the industry in its ability to handle CUI risk-based assessment, predictive detection and inspection of CUI. It is a concern that is hidden, invisible to inspectors and prompted mainly by moisture ingress between the insulation and the metallic pipe surface. The industry faces significant issues in the inspection of insulated assets, not only of pipes, but also tanks and vessels in terms of detection accuracy and precision. Currently, there is no reliable NDT detection tool that can predict the CUI spots in a safe and fast manner. In this study, a cyber physical-based approach is being presented to identify susceptible locations of CUI through a collection of infrared data overtime. The experimental results and data analysis demonstrates the feasibility of utilizing machine-learning techniques coupled with thermography to predict areas of concern. This is through a simplified clustering and classification model utilizing the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). This is a unique and innovative inspection technique in tackling complex challenges within the oil and gas industry, utilizing trending technologies such as big data analytics and artificial intelligence.

Advancement in Asset Integrity Management through Digitalized Eddy Current Testing Technology for Corrosion Cracking Inspections

Product Number: 51323-19049-SG

Author: Lutfallah, Muhammed H; Felemban, Tamim O; Alrashidi, Ahmed F; AlSubhi, Yasser S; Fandem, Qasem A; Batiste, Randal S

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

In the oil and gas industry, solid metal equipment such as pipelines, pressure vessels, heat exchangers and valves are susceptible to surface cracks and discontinuities attributed to cyclic loading, process environment and severe operating conditions. These anomalies affect the safety, structural functionality, reliability, integrity and life cycle of the equipment. They could lead to catastrophic incidents if not detected timely, evaluated, monitored and properly repaired.

Digital Generation of Eddy Current Testing (ECT) for Inspection of Surface and Near-Surface Defects

Product Number: MECC23-20114-SG

Author: Lutfallah, Muhammed H; Hammali, Ahmed Y; Felemban, Tamim O; Alismail, Mohannad A

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

In oil & gas industry, solid metal equipment such as pipelines, pressure vessels, heat exchangers and valves are susceptible to surface and sub-surface cracks and discontinuities attributed to cyclic loading and severe operating conditions. These anomalies affect the safety, structural functionality, reliability, integrity and life cycle of the equipment and if not detected timely, they could lead to catastrophic incidents. Consequently, this gave rise to the importance of different Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) methods and their abilities to detect and characterize surface discontinuity providing useful information to the structural integrity assessment.

Swarm S2 - A Wireless, Multi-Channel Ultrasonic Corrosion and Erosion Monitoring Tool

Product Number: 51324-21238-SG

Author: Ali Fatemi

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

A new EX certified (explosion proof) ultrasonic monitoring tool for integrity management of onshore assets which are subject to corrosion and erosion is presented in this paper. This tool makes it possible to wirelessly perform monitoring with a battery or solar power driven datalogger unit connected to one or several ultrasonic sensors. With internal processing of data in the datalogger, internal storage and wireless communication, the system provides the end user with real-time wall thickness data with micrometer accuracy. Up-to-date data can be directly sent to the control system for review by the decision makers. The datalogger has a modular design which consists of a main body for processing and storing data, a bottom part for transducer connection and a top part for communication. This gives a wide range of possibilities based on the number and type of transducers required and type of communication preferences. We will present different configurations of this product and will show the results of an installation in field and discuss thickness and wall loss data.
