Asset owners and operators continue to face increasing pressure to improve reliability while reducing maintenance costs and turnaround durations. IGS is hosting a joint webinar with Inspectioneering where industry experts will explore how high velocity thermal spray and weld overlay technologies can be applied as practical solutions to support asset integrity and long-term performance.

Advancements in automation, robotics, and on-site repair technologies are changing how facilities approach maintenance during turnarounds. By minimizing man-entry, enabling work in confined or hazardous environments, and allowing repairs to be executed in parallel with other activities, these solutions help facilities safely do more with less downtime.

The session will focus on real-world considerations for integrating these technologies into inspection and maintenance planning. The discussion will highlight proven solutions such as High Velocity Thermal Spray (HVTS) and automated weld overlay, which deliver repeatable, high-quality repairs that help extend asset life, mitigate damage mechanisms, and reduce the overall impact of turnarounds and outages.

Topic: Increasing Asset Life and Reducing Turnaround Durations Using High Velocity Thermal Spray and Weld Overlay
When: 12 February | 13:00 CT
Presenter: Colin Bateman, Greg Alvarado

The webinar will be presented by Colin Bateman, Asset Integrity Specialist at Integrated Global Services (IGS), alongside Greg Alvarado, Chief Editor of Inspectioneering, combining field experience with an inspection-focused perspective.

Attendees will learn how refineries and petrochemical plants are deploying corrosion- and erosion-mitigating technologies to reduce safety risks, minimize operational disruption, and extend asset life.
