HOW COVID-19 AND THE DECLINE IN OIL PRICES HAVE AFFECTED MECHANICAL INTEGRITY PROGRAMS

摘要

In May, Inspectioneering and PinnacleART once again hosted our bi-annual "Meeting of the Minds" (MOTM) roundtable discussion with a select group of mechanical integrity (MI) experts from across industry. This was our 6th MOTM, and much like many of you, we were forced to adapt to the current Covid-19 environment and conduct our meeting virtually. Nonetheless, our panel of SMEs were able to carve out time to sit down and discuss numerous issues currently affecting the industry. As with previous meetings, participants come from various sectors of the industry, including refining/petrochemicals, offshore production, and chemical processing.
