Beyond the Bellows: How One Root Cause Failure Analysis Sparked Cultural Transformation in Refinery Reliability

Sometimes, technical problems are symptoms of deeper cultural and operational issues. This article explores how a deep dive into recurring fluid catalytic cracker (FCC) expansion joint failures led to far-reaching insights, not just about metallurgy and maintenance, but about a refinery's decision-making, communications and reliability culture. It’s a case where the root cause wasn’t just in the metal, but in the mindset.

Developing Reliable, Long-Term Maintenance Strategies for Large Diameter Water Pipelines

The Central Arizona Project (CAP) faces significant corrosion issues in two critical steel pipelines that transport nearly two billion gallons of water daily across Arizona. With limited maintenance windows, CAP explored three options: ongoing repairs, building a bypass for extended maintenance, or replacing the pipelines with low-maintenance concrete. After a thorough analysis, CAP chose to rehabilitate existing infrastructure and reline the steel pipelines, ensuring long-term reliability for Arizona’s water supply.
