3 Reasons to Audit Your Offshore Fluid System Mark Garvey, Field Engineer, Swagelok Scotland “Is that really the state of my rig?” If you are the operator of an offshore hydrocarbon platform, this is a phrase you do not want to find yourself saying. But in my work as a field engineer for Swagelo...

Why System Performance Depends on Proper Tube Preparation Quality tubing and highly engineered fittings form some of the most critical connections in any refinery. A number of variables must be considered when ensuring each of these connections is optimal—material type, tube size, wall thickness, ...

Calculating the ROI of a Process Analyzer It’s no secret that process analyzers are more expensive than other measuring devices within your sampling system. Some organizations and procurement managers require justification for such expensive equipment in the form of a return-on-investment (ROI) ana...

How to Calibrate an Analyzer in an Analytical Instrumentation System Tony Waters, Sampling Systems Expert and Instructor In many analytical instrumentation systems, the process analyzer does not provide an absolute measurement. Rather, it provides a relative response based on settings established ...
