Hi NBray,

The plant I look after has only been operating since 2019, so quite young.
Our RBI hasn’t identified any cracking mechanisms as credible on the pipework carrying steam condensate from the ACCs back to a condensate tank, nor any pipework downstream (via pumps, back to deaerator). We’re on the look out for any pitting or wall loss mechanisms in that pipng.

Regards,
B
