Case Studies
Inspectioneering contributors and authors have published numerous mechanical integrity case studies in Inspectioneering Journal and throughout our online resources. This page brings all of these case studies into one location to better help you learn from the experience of others.
A detailed analysis revealed the weaknesses of an existing gasket seating design and bolt tensioning effectiveness to be the root cause of a chronic leak issue.
Both strategic and tactical thinking are needed within the FEMI work process, and we’ll show how important each aspect of the program is relative to the whole.
Software advances in laser scanning allow for examining noncylindrical equipment common in a plant environment. We’ll give six examples of how this is done.
A proven methodology is required to measure accurate temperatures in a repeatable process to capture the full capability of IR thermometry.
A comparative analysis of robotic nondestructive inspection tools used to locate floor defects in aboveground storage tanks.
This article presents a risk-based inspection (RBI) approach for the assessment of offshore subsea pipelines, accompanied by a practical case study.
Failure of internal attachment welds became a chronic issue for an NGL plant. Identifying design discrepancies was key to eliminating repeated failures.
A case study of insulation-drying technology that reduces the wetness time of thermal insulation and pipes.
The capabilities of automated radiographic testing (ART) make it the preferred method to manual techniques for detecting piping corrosion defects in the field.
With class-leading thermal performance, superior CUI defense, and complimentary engineering support, our aerogel insulation solutions are a top choice in helping facilities drive energy efficiency, improve safety, increase yields, and reduce downtime
A look into how complications due to low diameter, geometry, procedure, and qualification of welders resulted in flaws that were overlooked.
This article describes a storage tank built in a permafrost area and how FFS and FEA were used to address the challenges of foundation instability.
A review of the plan one site put in place to upgrade their performance from the fourth quartile to the first quartile and keep it there.
Common pitfalls in gathering inspection data using a case study where additional data gathering resulted in a significant improvement in FFS results.
A look at common reliability issues to help give perspective on where issues may be waiting and how to handle them when they arise.
Explore how more advanced modeling addresses the challenges of quantifying uncertainty and probability of failure to drive valuable inspections.
