Integrated Global Services Inc.From Corrosion Mechanisms to Field Reality – Inside WtE Boiler Integrity Waste-to-energy (WtE) boilers operate in some of the most aggressive environments in the power sector. High temperatures, corrosive flue gases, and unpredictable fuel compositions create a constant challenge for operators trying to maintain reliability and extend asset life. To better understand what drives damage […]
Structural Reinforcement Under Geographic and Regulatory Constraints At a remote South American refinery, inspection identified severe shell bulging and weld seam cracking across multiple coke drums. The structural concerns were significant, but the operating environment added a second layer of complexity. Limited infrastructure, extended supply chains, and local regulatory requirements elevated execution risk beyond typical […]
What Is Wet H2S Corrosion? Wet H₂S corrosion occurs when hydrogen sulfide is present in a process stream together with free water, creating a highly aggressive sour environment capable of rapid metal loss. In this condition, carbon steel and even some corrosion resistant alloys can suffer accelerated degradation through localized pitting, crevice corrosion, and general […]
Rising compressor pressure ratios in advanced-frame gas turbines – including platforms such as the GE 9HA, and comparable high-efficiency units – have pushed late-stage compressor temperatures beyond 930°F (500°C). While this improves overall efficiency, it also accelerates oxidation of low-chrome steel components in compressor discharge and combustion-adjacent sections, creating a growing fleet-wide reliability concern that […]
From Planning to Execution – Inside Automated Field Welding with Antoni Zarychta Automated field welding is often viewed as a technical process – equipment, parameters, procedures. But in reality, its success depends just as much on planning, adaptability, and experience as it does on technology. We spoke with Antoni Zarychta, Global Welding Operations Lead at […]
Across the petrochemical industry in Saudi Arabia, asset efficiency and integrity is under intense scrutiny, driven by major production targets, pressure on energy costs and the drive to improve equipment performance. While many are investing in new capacity to meet rising demand, there is an increasing imperative to also optimise existing, often aging assets, running […]
