Bringing treatments to a boil
The function of a boiler is simple. It boils water to produce steam, which, in turn, provides energy.
Considerations for not providing a dedicated spare pressure-relief device
Pressure-relief devices play a critical role in the hydrocarbon processing industry.
Managing complexity in engineering and construction projects
It is widely accepted that new management methods are needed to curb the frequent delays and cost overruns observed in engineering and construction projects.
Assessment protocol for nozzle loads on pressure vessels
From a historical perspective, the traditional approach to deal with “unknown magnitude of nozzle loads” can be summarized here.
