Petrochemical Machinery Insights

As the author of this purposefully structured up-to-date text, I wanted to mention that I graduated from the New Jersey Institute of Technology over 54 years ago. I had a very rewarding career in machinery reliability improvement, although I've only had two employers (J&J and Exxon) since 1962. My 20th (and no doubt last) book relates to every one of the many job functions found in modern process plants. The text qualifies as the culmination of my work in industry. It consolidates findings which have been alluded to in a variety of releases but, for all kinds of reasons, were never described elsewhere in the best-detailed, updated, or most relevant manner. As of 2016, every one of the book's hundreds of failure avoidance topics and examples has been successfully implemented by acknowledged Best-of-Class (BoC) companies. Consider this a plea to incorporate these BoCs' successes in your company's improvement strategies. Track your progress: You will find it easy to demonstrate rapid payback as you capture, cost-justify, and lock-in results that greatly exceed your expectations.
