2 Predictive Corrosion Management uses our groundbreaking package of: The future of inspections is here Rightrax PM UT installed sensors Today s refineries are spending millions of dollars each year to maintain piping integrity at their facilities, including identifying and managing corrosion before it impacts plant operation. Predictive Corrosion Management from Baker Hughes, a GE company, empowers you with the insights to: Proactively manage corrosion risk Predix cloud-based software Make data-driven decisions Reduce total cost of operations Expert services

Digital Inspection Digitizing your inspections Predictive Corrosion Management from BHGE is a holistic, powerful package designed for a wide range of applications.

3 Digital Inspection Digitizing your inspections Predictive Corrosion Management from BHGE is a holistic, powerful package designed for a wide range of applications. Upstream: Onshore Applications Downstream: Refineries, Petrochemical Power: Nuclear, Conventional Chemical, Fertilizer Upstream and downstream facilities face corrosion and erosion-related threats due to impurities in crude oil such as: Hydrogen sulfide Hydrochloric acid Carbon dioxide Water Solids like sand Chemicals used in processing Process conditions like pressure and temperature Controlling the production process and limiting corrosion is crucial to addressing these issues. Which means inspectors need to monitor a higher frequency and take more precise measurements. Predictive Corrosion Management meets those needs. Safety in Inspections Many assets that are susceptible to corrosion are difficult for NDT technicians to reach, due to a variety of safety hazards: Extreme temperatures Highly combustible gas Toxic or acidic vapors Radiation Oftentimes, such inspections can increase risk to your workforce. Predictive Corrosion Management s permanently installed sensors improve the safety environment across the entire facility and reduce the total cost of inspections for hard to reach or inaccessible locations. Accessibility To make assets accessible for inspections, most facility operators spend millions of dollars on: Rope access teams Scaffolding Insulation removal Transportation With permanently installed sensors as part of the Predictive Corrosion Management solution, operators can access inspection data on a regular basis for monitored assets, anytime, anywhere.

4 Predictive Corrosion Management Visibility and trending of interior piping wall loss enables better decisions Predictive Corrosion Management allows you to make better decisions about monitored asset life and reliability. Installed sensors providing inspection data combined with cloud-based software providing real-time trending, robust visualizations, and out-of-the-box analytics help to manage corrosion risk and proactively make disposition decisions. The result: reduced corrosion, and the costs that go with it. Manage and Reduce mitigate corrosion- inspectionrelated risk related costs Improve equipment performance Improve/optimize process and operations Improve personnel safety Optimize chemical inhibitor program

5 With accurate and reliable interior piping wall loss data collection, corrosion has nowhere to hide In the production, transportation, refining, and distribution industries, problems like Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC) and sand erosion are difficult to diagnose and can damage equipment quickly. Why? Because corrosion is hard to find in places like: Tanks Vessels Piping With Predictive Corrosion Management, companies can protect their critical assets from failure and reduce hardware-related inspection costs by using a constant stream of assethealth and risk-based data, along with permanently installed corrosion monitoring sensors.

6 Data Analysis Software, sensors, and services in one powerful package Software for the Digital Industrial world. Predictive Corrosion Management software is powered by Predix, GE Digital s cloud-based platform built for the Industrial Internet. With the sensors feeding continuous data to the cloud-based software, you are able to improve the reliability of inspections, eliminate manual inconsistencies, as well as see trends and predictions that can help improve operational awareness and decision making extending the run life of pipes across your facility. The software today provides the following capabilities: Geospatial analytics for simple, drill-down views of asset health where sensors are installed Real-time view of corrosion rates, temperature, and wall thickness Sensor equipment health monitoring Expert services. Working with your process and reliability experts and corrosion engineers, we will help you define the right solution for your application. Our services include the application assessment, site survey, deployment, configuration, installation, and setup. Sensors that go beyond the expected. Rightrax PM sensors operate virtually maintenance-free in the harshest environments. These permanently installed sensors can be installed in hard-to-reach areas, reducing the cost of scaffolding and rigging. Their low-profile design can be installed under insulation, reducing repeated and costly insulation removal and replacement. All of which means less manpower, and more reliable data. Ultrasonic wall thickness monitoring system for pipe corrosion and erosion Continuous monitoring of pipes, elbows, headers, even under insulation while in service Proprietary SolGel ultrasonic probe technology for dry coupling Inherently safe, ATEX Zone-0 certified components Installed without couplant, adhesives or welding, virtually maintenance-free Remotely access data via the web

7 Together, our groundbreaking combination of software, sensors, and services enables you to nonintrusively monitor interior piping wall thickness to determine the effects of corrosion
