Joint Integrity Program

Leaking joints are one of the main causes of fluid release from petrochemical, chemical and offshore plants. The consequence in terms of safety, downtime, environment and cost can be severe.
Novus Sealing has a world class reputation in the prevention and elimination of leaking joints on site. Our reputation is based upon success in providing innovative and practical solutions to petrochemical plants throughout the world.
Our joint integrity programs are designed to assist companies in the control of joint leakage from plant. We offer a range of programs and services to suit your needs; from detailed joint integrity procedures tailored to plant requirements to simple but effective tools designed to improve the efficiency of the assembly of flanged joints.
Control of Flanged Joints

It is estimated that around 30% of heat exchangers will leak in a refinery at some point often at huge cost to the plant, both in terms of business loss and also in damage to plant and environment.
Root cause analysis shows that failures of flanged joints can be traced to one of the following three factors:
  • Design issues, particularly associated with the loading of the joint or material selection
  • The condition of the gasket, bolt or flange face or piping system
  • Improper assembly, including inadequate loading or installation
Of the three, flange design itself is rarely the root cause of the problem, and it is rare for failures to result in a flange redesign. Analysis shows that most joint failures are associated with component selection, damaged or defective components or improper assembly.
