  • Flow Blog: Why Continuous, Non-Intrusive Corrosion Monitoring is Fast Becoming a Refining Industry Best Practice

    William Fazackerley
    Corrosion risk is great, and incidents can be severe – potentially endangering lives, therefore there is increased need for corrosion control in refineries. Even slight changes to the process can affect corrosivity greatly. Changing crude diets, flow rates, yields or inhibition levels can impact negatively on asset integrity. Monitoring periodically through techniques such as manual inspection do not provide the granularity…
