By Integrated Global Services Inc IGS
Repair and outage costs of refinery Crude Distillation Units (CDUs) can be significant, involving the complexity of shell replacement or weld overlay and associated PWHT. High-velocity Thermal Spray (HVTS) cladding technology has a well-documented history of shell protection in sour conditions where low, or locally low, pH results in material wastage.
