Efficiency and Reliability Audio Case Studies

A multi-year case study of how HVTS cladding transformed a European biomass power station, from quarterly outages and recurring tube failures to predictable annual inspections and zero failures in protected zones.

An offshore platform faced pitting corrosion on stainless steel–clad slug catchers. HVTS was applied as a weld overlay alternative, achieving reliable corrosion protection under sour service conditions and delivering significant cost savings.

This episode explores a Gulf Coast refinery’s battle with severe H2S and HCl corrosion in critical stripper towers and a debutanizer. We cover the risks to reliability and safety, and how the refinery addressed these challenges during a major turnaround.

A refinery restored furnace efficiency and reduced stack temperatures through targeted maintenance solutions, avoiding costly operational downtime.

In this episode, we examine how a Middle Eastern petrochemical plant reduced costly shutdowns and improved reliability by applying IGS cladding technology inside a reactor for the first time. A practical look at implementation, challenges, and long-term results.
