These guidelines assess all those concerned with minimising the risk of incurring
loss of containment from vibration induced fatigue failures of process plant
pipework.
The document is an enhanced and expanded version of the former MTD
Guidelines document which was first issued in 1999 which has been a key element
in maintaining integrity in the design and maintenance of process pipework within
the oil, gas and petro-chemical industries.
Since the first issue, years of practical experience have been gained in its use
which has now been incorporated to good effect. The opportunity has also been
taken to widen the documents technical scope, remove ambiguities and make
its use more user-friendly and more accessible to a wider range of operation and
maintenance personnel.
These guidelines are designed to provide guidance, assessment methods and
advice on control and mitigation measures when a new process system is being
designed, when undertaking an assessment of an existing plant or process
system, when changes to an existing plant or process system are being
considered (such as operational, process or equipment changes), and when a
vibration issue is identified on an existing plant.
An errata has been issued for this document referring to pages 61 and 68, which is
freely available in the sample pages. These changes have been incorporated into
the main PDF and are sent out as a loose-leaf sheet with any hard copy
purchased.
