PIPING, PRESSURE VESSEL AND PSV DATA MANAGEMENT
Advanced information technologies allow us to track large volumes of data, but only after inputting their lengthy inspection histories into databases. As a consequence, IRISNDT has assisted our equipment owner-users by developing and inputting the data necessary in equipment integrity management programs such as MAXI-TRAK, Visions, UltraPIPE, PCMS and others. Our projects include:
- Developing the "as-built" piping and pressure vessel corrosion monitoring databases for a series of large new petrochemical plants. This entailed our personnel, in combination with our customer's personnel, developing /classifying the piping corrosion circuits system for the piping inspection program. The projects have required several years of work and are still progressing.
- Storing and maintaining the Canadian corrosion database for one of the world's largest energy companies. As part of this project we have been transferring the PSV and vessel visual reports into UltraPIPE for multiple facilities. To this end, we have developed programs that systematically can translate and transfer data from multiple types of computer programs to corrosion databases such as those named above.
Developing a reliability program for 40-year-old piping for a chemical processing and mining plant. Several of our piping inspectors have been assisting in the development and implementation of this program for the last 2 years.
- Assisting in the development of corrosion databases that encompass multiple production sites for several upstream and mid-stream piping and pressure vessel Oil and Gas Equipment Owners.
