4. SAFETY MOMENT
This Hub Connector passed a Nitrogen Helium Leak test but leaked 3 years
later causing an explosion. The cause -fitting a Carbon Steel Seal Ring
instead of a Stainless one.

5. SAFETY MOMENT
Explosion At Chevron Refinery, Mississippi
The Root Cause was Identified as Loose Bolts at Inlet Flange on PSV

6. Joint Integrity Philosophy
All leaks from bolted joints are avoidable
We have a moral and legal obligation to protect safety
of employees in the industry
The true cost of leaks from bolted connections is far
greater than the cost of avoiding them
We also have to minimise the impact of our activities
on the environment

7. Joint Integrity Solutions
"The final, essential creator of the force is the mechanic, and
the time of creation is during assembly. So it's very important for
us to understand this process".
-John Bickford, "Handbook of Bolts and Bolted Joints"
Joint Integrity Solutions (JIS) by WCM Brunei Sdn Bhd were offered to the
industry as the most comprehensive and sophisticated service to cater all
service and work related to bolted joint integrity and asset reliability. JIS is in
accordance and compliance with most recent requirements by ASME PCC-1
and 'Guidelines for The Management of The Integrity of Bolted Joint For
Pressurised System' by Energy Institute UK.

8. Joint Integrity Solutions
Joint Integrity Solutions (JIS) by WCM Brunei Sdn.Bhd is considered as the
key elements to achieving prime objectives of flange joint integrity which is to
assure leak-free integrity of the bolted flange joint. An integrated approach
has been adopted to ensure success of the process of joint integrity.
This process shall begin with;
i) understanding of the operating environment
ii) continues with design
iii) selection of the flange components
iv) setting of assembly specifications
v) establishment of best procedures
vi) appointment of competent personnel
vii) quality assurance traceability through complete documentation (using
sophisticated and systematic software for database)
viii)  finishes with meeting the goal of leak prevention.

- Real time condition based monitoring (Live monitoring on
critical joint)
- Pipeline related works

10. INTRODUCTIONTO FLANGE
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
WHY do we need a Flange Management program?
The program will help improve Plant Safety and Reliability, the Cost of a Leak is enormous in terms of People, Plant
and Environment.
WHAT do we need to control?
The process used in the construction and operating environment, the components, the assembly and tightening
processes.
WHO do we need to control?
Anyone who may have an influence on a flanged joint, engineers, supervision, field operatives
HOW do we control?
Improve awareness of Best Practice, train personnel to on site based on their role on the project. Adopt best
practices for assembly and tightening of flanged joints. Implement a quality assurance database and program that
provides traceability and ensures compliance to all Project specifications.

11. What is Flange Management?
 The easiest comparison is to look at a welded joint, if we compare what is required for a welded joint
then its easy to see similar requirements for a flanged joint
 Materials management and controls
 Training and competency – look at what qualifications a coded welder needs
 Process and procedure
 Documentation and records

13. Client Ownership
An owner within the Client organization must be appointed.
WCM works with all tiers in the supply chain implementing Flange Management.
WCM can assist clients to implement Flange Management throughout the organization,
through assistance with:
• Gap Analysis
• Procedures
• Risk Assessments

14. Best Industry Practices & Procedures

Best Practice

15. Assess Criticality, Set Rules
Determine Joint Criticalities
Risk Assessment process; consider process media, temp and pressure
Based on Leak and Loss potential as well as local factors
Joint analysis, bolt loads, rules for use of torque and tension
Leads into Risk Based Inspection
TIGHTENING METHOD BOLT DIAMETER
1 Torque tighten <1 ½”
2 Bolt tension >1 ½”
Low-risk Within alignment tolerances, existing controls are in place, eg procedures,
vendor information, competent personnel; safe to proceed
Medium-risk Additional controls need to be identified, consider the use of specialist
contractors, limit personnel in the area during testing and initial operation,
improve access, re-check after completion.
High-risk Engineering review of piping design and configuration, consider the use of a
specialist contractor or vendor.

16. TRAINING & COMPETANCY
SpecificTraining courses for all roles:
 WCM training schemes is based on standard training
program stated in Energy Institute – Guidelines for the
management of the integrity of bolted joints for pressurised
systems (Chapter 4).
Personnel Role Includes: Training Course

19. Inspection Compliance
In-service Inspection of bolted joints
is an integral activity to ensure the
continued integrity of the joints and
as such should be built in to all
relevant inspection programmes.
This section looks at the possible
damage that can occur, the
inspection methods available for
detection of defects and mitigation
measures that can be put in place to
minimise such degradation.

20. Leak Management
“The objective of a correctly
designed and installed bolted joint is
to provide a long-term tight seal and
prevent ingress or egress of fluids
through the joint.
However, leaks can occur and
managing the investigation and
repair of the leak is essential to avoid
recurrence.
It can also provide useful data for
prevention on other projects.”
A defined process is in place for
Leak Management Investigation
shown on the right

21. KPI’s, Analyze, Improve
Analysis of leakage and inspection data coupled with
formal reviews of the management system should
occur at agreed intervals by the owner and users.
The results obtained from commissioning, incident
analysis and in-service inspections should be used
to generate ideas for continuous improvement.
Easily monitored but meaningful performance
standards should be put in place at launch to
quantify the contribution being made by the
management system and evaluate user satisfaction.
Feedback on good practice in integrity issues and
causes and solutions to incidents should be provided
both internally and to industry to contribute to
continuous improvement.
