Alternatives to Welding – Creative Solutions for Pressure and Strength Retention
Organised jointly by:
Technical Programme Available. Download here.
Non-welded mechanical connectors is becoming a growth area as platforms are decommissioned or modified. This conference will share knowledge, new technologies and provide clarity on industry guidelines, in line with the Regulatory requirements.
Important issues such as demonstrating integrity, achieving compliance approval, risk assurance and technical compliance will be addressed.
Themes include but are not limited to – vessel and flange repairs; composites; ice plugs; foam plugs; hot tapping; non welded piping connections; bolted joints; pressure systems; cold work solutions.
