Optimizing your chemical processing costs and maintaining high-quality outputs requires that you capture representative, timely samples of process fluid for later analysis. Yet, finding the right sampling system requires you to understand sampling system design principles and many process factors, including sample pressure, temperature, phase, compatibility, and chemical composition. Swagelok helps chemical processing companies build, maintain, and operate reliable sampling systems every day, and their engineers have designed standardized, locally configurable grab sampling solutions to make sampling simpler and safer. Join this webinar to hear from one of these engineers, learning what it takes to develop high-performing grab sampling systems and what you should consider to find a gas grab sampling solution that works for you.
Learnings: After attending this webinar, you will walk away better understanding:
- Grab sampling and online analyzer differences
- Benefits of grab sampling
- Basic design principles
- Sample container selection
- Standard cylinder panels
- Cylinder design options

Characterization and evaluation of corrosion damage in refineries has gained importance due to the need for safety, reliability, throughput and operational integrity for unit facilities. Corrosion affects a variety of areas, from direct damage to pipeline and equipment, unplanned downtime and loss of process efficiency, to hazardous operational conditions for the personnel and the community, the equipment and facilities and the environment. An advanced continuous corrosion monitoring and analysis solution is required to detect and prevent corrosion damages and enable timely decision making to improve overall asset integrity.
This webinar presents an innovative approach for continuous corrosion monitoring and predictive analytics that enables a comprehensive asset integrity analysis. This approach includes the ability to:
- Continuously estimate corrosion rates for multiples materials and damage mechanisms
- Calculate average corrosion rates and quantify cumulative corrosion damage
- Evaluate the impact of operating conditions on corrosion rates
- Validate the effectiveness of Integrity Operating Windows (IOWs) to keep corrosion rates within limits
- Estimate future wall thicknesses, corrosion allowances and dates where thresholds are reached
Please join our Industry Experts for a discussion about the industry challenges related to corrosion damages and its effects in asset integrity and to learn about Honeywell innovative solutions for continuous corrosion monitoring and predictive analytics.

Data complexity has been an ongoing often unanswered challenge for petrochemical companies since the dawn of digitalization. It is a challenge for which a well-defined Digital Transformation initiative that enables efficient data management, visualization and activity orchestration can guarantee maximum levels of cross-functional collaboration and performance. The current environment has brought a new sense of urgency for improving plant performance while providing added levels of agility and resiliency. Siemens and Sinclair will discuss during this Webinar the key role Operations Intelligence plays in an overall Industrial IT ecosystem to leverage existing systems and capabilities to achieve incremental benefits and enable overall organizational performance improvements.

The pandemic dramatically brought down the worldwide demand of gasoline and jet fuel; diesel demand dropped less to keep trucking and freight trains running. Hydrocracking units remained in production because of their ability to make high-quality diesel and/or naphtha. With the demand for transportation fuels growing far slower than the demand for petrochemicals, hydrocracking remains an essential building block in the conversion of crude to chemicals. Implementation of IMO Fuel Oil sulfur specifications from 2020 will accelerate the need to hydrocrack residue-derived barrels. Chevron was the first to commercialize modern hydrocracking in 1959, and CLG has designed and commissioned most of the world’s largest hydrocrackers. This webcast highlights the versatility of the hydrocracking process and catalyst technology in adapting to the changing product demand patterns and changing feed diets. The audience will hear from our experts about tailored solutions for transportation fuels, lube oil base stocks, and petrochemical feedstocks.

With carbon dioxide costs at $25–35/t, blue hydrogen is already competitive against grey and, according to the International Energy Agency, green hydrogen will remain more expensive beyond 2030. For greenfield projects, oxygen-based hydrogen production systems offer advantages over steam methane reforming. In a recent example, the Shell Blue Hydrogen Process cut the levelized cost of hydrogen by 22% compared with autothermal reforming through reducing capital expenditure by 17% and operating expenditure by 34%.
Register to learn about the economic advantages of blue hydrogen production using the highly integrated Shell Blue Hydrogen Process based on mature Shell partial oxidation and pre-combustion carbon dioxide adsorption technologies.
We will:
- Explain why the world needs blue hydrogen;
- Examine which technologies are best for greenfield applications;
- Show how the Shell Blue Hydrogen Process can reduce the levelized cost of hydrogen by 10–25%; and
- Demonstrate the technologies’ maturity with reference to case studies.
