The Future of Hot Tapping Software with Matt Boring and Stuart Guest

Welcome to our insightful webinar where we embark on a journey into the future of pipeline welding software, with a primary focus on Technical Toolboxes PRCI Hot Tap solutions for pipelines. We are delighted to introduce our two distinguished speakers, Matt Boring, a welding engineer from DNV, and Stuart Guest from BMT, both actively involved in conducting studies and tests for PRCI (Pipeline Research Council International).

In this webinar, Matt Boring takes us on a fascinating journey through the history and development of the PRCI model for Thermal Analysis, a Hot Tap software. We’ll also delve into the exciting updates and enhancements in the latest Technical Toolboxes PRCI Hot Tap software version, V5. Discover the new features and benefits that have been incorporated to empower pipeline professionals and streamline their workflows. To make it even more engaging, we’ll showcase a live demo, providing you with a firsthand look at the software’s capabilities.

But that’s not all! Stuart Guest introduces an innovative addition to our arsenal: the Sleeve End Fillet Weld software, a collaborative effort with PRCI. This tool is designed to provide stress intensity factors for various defects associated with fillet welds, enabling a fitness for service assessment before deciding on immediate repairs. This approach can lead to significant cost savings without compromising safety.
