Issue Date: | Jan-2019 | Journal: | Journal of Multidisciplinary Approaches in Science | Abstract: | The above ground storage tanks (AST's) in the refinery is experiencing an extensive damaged bottom plate of an above ground vertical storage tank. This has resulted in the 12mm elliptical hole failure of 1 tank since its commissioning (1982). This report summarizes the results of the non-destructive evaluation (NDE) carried out to investigate the root cause of damaged bottom plate removed from an above ground vertical storage tank bottom plate. The NDE techniques used for the root cause analysis (RCA) included Visual and Low-Power Optical Microscopic Examination, hardness testing, Metallographic Examination and surface roughness examination. Based on concluding facts, | URI: | http://dspace.uniten.edu.my/jspui/handle/123456789/15108 |
