Solids production in the gas industry remains one of the main challenges that needs to be addressed to avoid integrity issues or loss of production. Implementing the appropriate monitoring technology helps improve maintenance routines and increase safety.
Monitoring for corrosion during retrieval is a cost-effective way to ensure safety while maintaining the high utilization demanded by the gas network. Operators can seamlessly gather, store, and share solids production risk and erosion impact across key decision makers to enhance future storage and retrieval operations.
In this Storage Terminal Reliability podcast, Emerson’s Dag Joraholmen joins podcast host Jim Cahill to discuss how corrosion monitoring can reduce the need for reactive maintenance and increase the overall reliability of storage terminal operations across the production lifecycle.
Maximize productivity and profitability while balancing the impact of corrosion on fixed assets by leveraging advanced wireless corrosion monitoring solutions. This technology combines reliable and continuous corrosion data with process data for a more comprehensive view of asset health.
Emerson’s Kevin Thomas discussed corrosion and erosion monitoring at the 4C Health, Safety & Environmental conference. Kevin opened citing some statistics.
In a Hydrocarbon Engineering article, A Fine Balance, Emerson’s Jake Davies describes ways to address the corrosion and erosion that can wear away piping, tanks, vessels and valves in the refining process.
At the Emerson Exchange Americas virtual series, Emerson’s David Macedonia and Ali Babakr describes methods of protecting final control elements in corrosive applications.
In a Hydrocarbon Engineering article, Emerson’s Jake Davies looks at corrosion monitoring from a cost/benefit standpoint. Imagine this situation, which probably won’t require too much effort to visualize. You have an eight-year-old car, and looking at your personal...
Lamar University’s Center for Midstream Management & Science, led by Thomas Kalb, will be hosting a November 10, 10-11am CST virtual roundtable discussion, Corrosion Issues in the Midstream Industry.
The roundtable features Emerson’s Dr. Christiane Lederer and other distinguished panelists from CorrPro-Aegion and Energy Transfer.
Alkylation units allow for the production of premium gasoline grades, adding significant economic value to the refinery operation. These units are extremely susceptible to aggressive corrosion. Corrosion can lead to an HF (Hydrogen Fluoride) release, which can cause significant production loss and place the health and safety personnel and local community at risk.
Overview The dangers of Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) aka Sour Gas in oil and gas production are well known. A highly toxic, corrosive, flammable and explosive gas. H2S is colourless and although characterised by it "rotten egg" smell, at high concentrations can also be...
Monitoring for corrosion in piping and vessels is critical in industries such as oil & gas and chemical production. Corrosion control is important in order to avoid damage and loss of integrity in a plant or production site. The traditional approach of periodic...
