Our detailed gamma scanning reports serve as invaluable tools for optimizing overall process performance. By pinpointing areas of concern, they enable targeted improvements, saving you from hours of exhaustive trending and troubleshooting.
Our Expertise:
Petromaster's non-invasive Gamma Scan technique is used to evaluate trayed columns for hydraulic performance and mechanical integrity. This critical knowledge is needed to optimize production and minimize plant downtime.
Immediate results delivered on site allow our customers to implement the appropriate solutions to increase production, reduce shut down time and lower their operating costs.
We specialize in providing these services within Tower Scanning.
- Verify tray placement any damage.
- Determine froth height and levels.
- Locate flooding and foaming.
- Diagnose entrainment and weeping
- Detect process related problems
Petromaster grid scan is one of the most cost effective ways to identify maldistribution in packed towers. Using a geometric pattern of scan orientations the density profiles will overlay with an even flow distribution. If variations are detected between the scans, then deviations are present in the liquid or vapor flow pattern within the packing.
Within grid scanning, we provide these services.
- Verify the position of packed beds
- Evaluate the distribution of liquid and vapor.
- Confirm distributors and collector trays
- Detect crushed and fouled packing
- Locate foaming and flooding
Deposits and blockages inside your process piping can be difficult and costly to locate. ScanTech personnel use portable equipment to quickly and accurately determine the location of deposits in above ground piping. Our technique is non- invasive and can be used on almost any piping contents.
In Pipe Scanning, we offer these services.
- Position and extent of solids buildup
- Hydrate location within gas lines
- Access liquid carryover in separators
- Monitor liquid/ gas interface in pipeline purge
- Measure the extent and duration of slugging
- Locate lost refractory or lining.
- Determine deposit cross sectional profiles.
