Corrosion and erosion present ongoing challenges to asset integrity in industrial plants, especially amid aging infrastructure, evolving feedstocks, and heightened environmental demands. This session explores how non-intrusive ultrasonic wall thickness monitoring systems can transform inspection strategies from reactive to predictive by trending corrosion rates in real time.

Attendees will learn how installed UT datalogger systems provide continuous, in-service wall loss data that supports more informed, risk-based inspection planning. Through real-world examples and case studies, the presentation will demonstrate how trending enables earlier detection of accelerated corrosion, optimized inspection intervals, and improved decision-making.

This session provides immediately applicable knowledge and tools, including system selection considerations, implementation challenges, and strategies for analyzing and interpreting thickness trend data. Participants will leave equipped to evaluate and apply UT trending solutions to improve plant safety, minimize unplanned outages, and extend equipment life.
