Refining and manufacturing facilities are responsible for producing various products, and their assets need to function safely and efficiently. ACTS is an asset management company that provides solutions for asset protection to refining and manufacturing facilities. Their approach involves identifying susceptible equipment, executing brittle fracture analysis, and evaluating and developing mitigation for at-risk vessels and piping.
Comprehensive Approach for Asset Protection:
ACTS uses a comprehensive approach to ensure the asset protection of refining and manufacturing facilities. This approach involves the following steps:
ACTS executes brittle fracture analysis on the equipment to identify the equipment's weakest points. This analysis helps in identifying equipment that is susceptible to brittle fracture due to low-temperature service.
Process Hazard Analysis is an essential step in identifying the equipment that needs to be evaluated. It helps in determining the equipment's potential hazards, and the criticality of the equipment is evaluated.
ACTS evaluates the equipment using Part 3 of API-579-1/ASME FFS-1 Fitness for Service methods to develop a minimum allowable temperature (MAT) curve. Based on the evaluation, mitigation strategies are developed to prevent any damage to the equipment.
Type of Equipment Analyse:
ACTS analyses various types of equipment such as FCCUs, power generation equipment and piping, heaters, pressure vessels, process piping, coke drums, and boilers. By analysing these types of equipment, ACTS ensures that refining and manufacturing facilities operate safely and efficiently.
