How do you know when to be worried?
Vibration, Dynamics & Noise (VDN)3
How do you know when to be worried?
• Mixed approaches common in North America
– Acoustic and Flow induced vibration
• Not very rigorous in practice
– Small bore piping, usually not considered
• No impact of changing operating conditions considered
• Detailed design activities lost before commissioning
What is currently done today?
Vibration, Dynamics & Noise (VDN)4
New tool available free to Industry - Veridian

Vibration, Dynamics & Noise (VDN)7
Know where to focus your efforts
• Risk assessment of three LNG trains
• Over 2,200 main-line vibration assessments
• Veridian used in
– vibration risk assessment
– prioritize field inspection program
• Field anomalies identified & managed using
Veridian AM.
• 1000’s of hours saved with:
– efficient data management
– One location to managing
anomaly progress
Case Example: Middle East LNG – existing facility
Vibration, dynamics and noise8
• Consistent methodology recommended by industry:
– ASME B31.3
– API 571
– Energy Institute AVIFF 2nd Ed. 2008
