Overview of Corrosion Loop
Defined at the Process Flow Diagram (PFD) level, a Corrosion Loop is typically shown in a document as part of a corrosion materials diagram (CMD) or as part of a damage mechanisms review (DMR) diagram. The loop represents the common process, corrosion environment, and materials of construction, and includes all equipment within that loop susceptible to the same corrosion/damage mechanisms and at approximately the same rates of deterioration. It may require making breaks in equipment like columns, for example, that may have vastly different conditions and metallurgies at different elevations. This is done at a higher or more coarse level than a corrosion circuit. It may be quite helpful as input and understanding for a Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) study and for a better understanding of damage mechanisms in that unit and affected equipment.

January/February 2017 Inspectioneering JournalBy Israel D. Martinez at ORPIC
Evaluating remaining wall thickness of an asset is not enough to ensure its continued safe operation. Proactive strategies should be implemented to assess the entire environment affecting an asset’s condition, including the development of more effective inspection plans.

Seasoned and knowledgeable inspectors are becoming harder and harder to keep. But using some of the industry documents in a smart way, inspectors with less experience can perform like an inspector with many more years of experience and even develop a great materials specialty with practice.

November/December 2014 Inspectioneering JournalBy Alphonse W. Hegger Jr., P.E. at Stress Engineering Services
Today, more than ever, refinery operators are focused on maintaining safe operations for their employees and extending the life cycle of valuable operating equipment to optimize efficiencies and avoid expensive unforeseen shutdowns. When process unit corrosion assessments, RBI methodologies, and IOWs are properly integrated into refining operations, the result is improved safety and longer run times.

Due to increasing market demands for stabilized crude, it is a high priority for oil handling and processing facilities to avoid production interruption. One optimization opportunity is to review our approach for scheduled facility Test and Inspection (T&I) during turnarounds or outages.
