Summary: | Vibration induced fatigue failure in piping system is a critical yet common problem in the petrochemical industry. Root cause identification and severity assessment of these problems usually require specialist input. The objective of this study is to develop a spreadsheet based approach using guidelines published by Energy Institute to identify the likelihood of failure in a piping system. Test case for a Malaysian offshore was undertaken for the validation of the developed software. Such software allows vibration induced fatigue failure to be screened in the design of a new plant or modification of an existing plant. This software can also be used to analyze pipeline used in other industry. |
