Fitness-for-Service:
Thielsch Engineering conducts
fitness-for-service assessments of storage tanks, pressure vessels, piping
systems, rotating equipment, relief devices, valves, alarms, trips and interlocks.
Our engineers and technicians can provide complete fitness for service, mechanical
integrity and remaining-life analyses, including field inspections and data
collection, laboratory mechanical and chemical testing and cost-effective
engineering solutions.

Fitness-for-Service assessments
are quantitative engineering evaluations which are performed
to demonstrate the structural integrity of systems or an
in-service component containing a flaw or damage. The assessments
are useful economic and safety benefits for companies which
help ensure the safety of plant personnel and the public
as older equipment continues to operate. The evaluations
also help plant managers to optimize maintenance and operation
of existing facilities and enhance long-term viability.
Thielsch Engineering provides evaluation and re-rating of
pressure vessels designed and constructed to the ASME Boiler
and Pressure Vessel Code, piping systems designed and constructed
to the ASME B31.3 Piping Code and aboveground storage tanks
designed and constructed to API 650 and API 620.
Our R Stamp program for plants includes our own welding
technicians who can perform any R stamp work. R Stamp
repairs are staffed with a qualified engineer who is a decision
maker.
