Approximately 95% of the hydrogen in the US is generated via steam methane reforming, which is used predominantly for petroleum refining and in the production of industrial commodities such as ammonia. Several tubes are connected at the top and bottom of the furnace, containing a catalyst that causes the methane in natural gas to react with water vapor in order to form hydrogen and other gases. High operating temperatures makes these tubes susceptible to cracking at the welds, so maintenance is needed often. They can be obstructed by catwalks, roofing, supports, refractory, other ducts, or even the furnace itself, which create limited clearances to make conventional welding repairs. WSI’s solutions are anything but conventional, with a low-profile, remotely operated approach that condenses the repair schedule, eliminates manpower and achieves first-time quality. #WSI #AvailEnergy #Welding #AutomatedWelding #LifeExtension #GTAW #SteamMethaneReforming #WorldLeader #NeverCompromise #ReadyWhenYouAre https://hubs.li/Q02V4Rbx0

WSI’s proprietary gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process – also known as metal inert gas (MIG) – is ideal for repairing the inside diameter of pressure vessels, particularly digesters, because of the attractive economics versus other methods. This process is considered to exceed the needs of even the most aggressively operated units’ corrosive environments. #WSI #AvailEnergy #Welding #WeldOverlay #Digester #Corrision #CorrosionPrevention #WorldLeader #NeverCompromise #ReadyWhenYouAre https://hubs.li/Q02Tw0ZG0

Product heaters and furnaces are some of the most common components in any refinery. Many refiners are in the process of upgrading the metallurgy of these components to reduce degradation and maintenance costs. https://hubs.li/Q02TgxWg0 #availenergy #nevercompromise #readywhenyouare #overlayreimagined

Upper furnace components in boilers experience some of the most challenging erosive/corrosive environments in any industry. Exposed to flue gas corrosion products, their operating temperature is typically higher than other components, such as waterwalls. In addition, these critical components are also exposed to flue gas particulates traveling at high velocities because of the area reduction typically designed into the units. WSI has over 30 years of experience in the protection of upper furnace components using our patented Unifuse360® technology. This unique product features a fully fused welded bond between the corrosion resistant overlay material and the tube base material. The patented welding process utilized provides a fully tempered heat affected zone that allows the tube to be bent to final product configuration after the application of the coating. The bond quality of these tubes is significantly better than other approaches, such as coextruded tubes and tubes that have been heat treated after overlay is applied.

"Ready when you are" has been WSI's slogan for decades, but where does it come from? Loosely translating from the Latin phrase semper paratus, it's used to describe someone who is willing and eager to do something, and prepared and ready for anything. WSI is ready, willing, and able to mobilize on a moment's notice when a customer needs to repair critical assets suffering from erosion, corrosion, abrasion, impact, and wear damage as part of a planned turnaround or during an emergency. When WSI answers the call, we immediately activate resources and deploy our certified team of experts where needed.
