Motiva’s 2.0 Tank Division journey leveraged time-tested technology that has consistently delivered success in our industry. Innovative robotic cleaning not only enhances safety compared to manual blasting but also boosts efficiency and reduces waste disposal costs. This means a safer, more cost-effective solution. To further elevate our tank maintenance process, we introduced “Pneumatic Roof Raising” technology, which significantly minimizes human exposure to negative ergonomics, pinch points, and the need for extensive scaffolding which translates to quicker project completion, reduced downtime, and enhanced overall safety.

In this session, we will present a case study on wash water reliability, examining the critical role a well-designed water wash plays in maintaining the mechanical integrity of a system. We will also discuss lessons learned from investigations into excessive accelerated corrosion in an overhead system.

In this session we will discuss different aspects related to the design, operation, troubleshooting and maintenance of different wash water systems operating in different units of a refinery. Since it is a critical application from the reliability point of view, different practices and criteria are applied based on experience.
Learn from an incident where a sand blast pot was opened under pressure. We will discuss how the site was effected by this incident and how Motiva partnered with onsite contractors to create an onboarding document and video to ensure this type of incident is not repeated.
