will provide a free magnetic pull test kit with a minimum, qualifying
purchase resulting from the free plant audit, allowing the customer
the ability to self-monitor magnetic equipment on a regular basis.
The free plant audit is geared towards companies that are
interested in evaluating how magnetic equipment can improve
cycle times, reduce operating costs, purify products and protect
processing equipment from metal damage.
Trained representativesof IMI canperformobjectiveandmeasured
strength testing of existing magnetic equipment, test end product
for metal contaminant levels, identify key areas where magnets
could enhance operating performance and offer a comparative cost
analysis for new or upgraded magnetic equipment.
Recent advances in rare earth magnet material, magnetic
circuit design and enhanced product features allow significant
improvements in finemetal capture rates, magnet cleaning operation
and overall performance of magnetic separation equipment.

50km of duplex pipes
for the Middle East
AS part of a number of projects in the Middle East, Petroleum
Development Oman (PDO) has received stainless steel pipes from
Butting manufactured from various materials in different dimensions.
Butting said it is delighted that it has been able to produce 50km of
duplex pipes for PDO as part of the “well delivery programme 2009”.
The pipes, were made of LC65 – 2205 (UNS S31803), produced
– in accordance with API 5LC and project specifications, – a total of
around 1,500 tons. The longitudinally welded steel coil pipes were
produced by Butting in four different dimensions: 273.1 x 6.4mm,
273.1 x 5.1mm, 219.1 x 4.8mm as well as 219.1 x 5.2mm and
represent the customer’s annual requirement for 2009.
Thepipeswereusedas flow-lines for transportinggasunderground
from the various fields to the processing plants.
Following their production in Knesebeck, Germany the pipes
were coated with polypropylene at a partner company from
where they were sent directly to Oman by means of a container
ship. In this way, the pipes could be delivered to the PDO Work
Management Plant on time to the complete satisfaction of the
customer.
