Startup Purge Credit Assessment

Tetra Engineering will be presenting our technical paper on "Impact of Startup Purge Credit on Combined Cycle Plant Operation" at the ASME Power and Energy Conversion 2015 Conference in San Diego, California, USA on June 30, 2015. It describes the technical basis for purge credit operation and provides an example of the impact on fatigue lifetime in key Heat Recovery Steam Generator components.

See the full program at the ASME website here.

Introducing PipeVue 2.0 KMS

ASME B31.1 places practice requirements on Operators for the maintenance of their Covered Piping Systems (CPSs).  Condition Assessments are required on a regular basis, associated with good record-keeping for traceability.  Over time this generates large volumes of documentation and inspection history data, therefore a coherent solution to knowledge management is needed.

PipeVue 2.0 was developed by Tetra Engineering to store and organize large amounts of inspection data in one network-based solution, easy accessible for both plant operators as well as engineers planning yearly inspections. PipeVue 2.0 has three modules covering:

  • Pipe Hangers & Supports;
  • Flow-accelerated Corrosion inspection data; and
  • Grade 91 Weld inspection data

The software stores hanger/support setting information (hot/cold), inspection notes, photos, NDT data and associated design documentation (PDF drawings & manuals) in a simple and categorized manner, with 3D-visualization of all components.

The user can add new data and save to a networked database, where it will be instantly accessible for other users. The software is available as a deliverable from Piping Inspections, or independently as a Knowledge Management System for Power Piping.  Engineering support from Tetra is available as an option, creating an instant channel between plant personnel and third party engineers.
