ANABEEB SSD Saves Sipchem Unplanned Shutdown by Sealing Critical Leak
July 22, 2015
Sipchem had a serious leak on the channel flange joint of an extra large hydrocarbon heat exchanger, which if not stopped would have meant an unplanned shutdown.
Since the joint involved hydrocarbons, no hot work, drilling, or caulking was allowed.
ANABEEB SSD set to work and although initially it looked an impossible task as the existing bolts were not strong enough to take up combined load, we overcame the problem and designed and fabricated the largest leak sealing clamp we have ever produced: a 3-piece clamp with a weight of 1.6 tons.
Fitting the clamp was also a challenge as the heat exchanger was located on a high elevation so our technicians had to use crane, chain blocks for installation. Also we injected over 100 tins of leak sealant.
Thankfully the project was a success and through collective efforts of ANABEEB MFD and SSD departments Sipchem avoided a costly shutdown.
ANABEEB receives glowing praise from Sabic and Dragados for the Affiliate-wide EO rector replacement

According to them the ANABEEB team, led by Project Leader Firos, showed excellent dedication and commitment during the shutdown, particularly during the Unloading / Loading stage, and largely contributed to successfully completing the shutdown ahead of schedule.
We were praised for arranging the resources & site preparation with very tight time pressures, and for the way ANABEEB fully integrated with Yansab personnel to create a single, seamless team which allowed the Polymer TA to be finished safely and successfully.
ANABEEB management were also praised for their guidance and support in ensuring this critical project was executed according to the highest quality standards.

Un-piggable Flow Line Successfully Inspected at Aramco Qatif
April 6, 2015
ANABEEB and A.Hak have successfully completed the inspection of a 140 meter section of an 8" flow line in order to demonstrate and qualify our new technology with Aramco.
Aramco is very excited with this development because normally such lines are 'un-piggable' due to there being no entry points.
An incredible amount of scale was removed in preparation for the job, in excess of 500kg.
Feedback has been extremely positive, and Aramco commented they were impressed with our equipment and the attitude of our execution team.

Large Vertical Exchanger Cleaned in Super Record Time at Tasnee
September 20, 2014
The 4,000 tube vertical heat exchangers in Tasnee normally take our skilled HP Jetters twelve shifts to clean manually as the working conditions are so harsh they need to take frequent rest breaks.
During the September turnaround our HP Jetters did it in only two shifts with the semi-automated machines.
These meant the HP Jetters did not fatigue as qucikly and could work continuously with minimal breaks.
ANABEEB and Vermeer Eemhaven sign MOU

Bolting and On-site Machining Teams Save Ibn Baytar Weeks of Downtime
August 13, 2014
We supported IBB through an extremely challenging box up of an ammonia reactor. The manufacturer supplied a gasket with a new type of coating but refused to give a no-leak guarantee; a leak during start-up would be like detonating a hydrogen bomb! No other contractor would take the job so ANABEEB rose to the challenge.
The tools and procedure were supplied by the manufacturer and so were new to us, but there was no room for error. Over five consecutive shifts we tightened and opened the flange-joint bolts four times until IBB was satisfied. Thankfully the job was a success and the plant started up without incident.
Elsewhere on IBB a lens gasket leaked during start-up. This is the most difficult gasket to machine as it has a mirror finish. Even the manufacturer refused to machine it and chose to over tighten, but the leak grew worse. Again, ANABEEB stepped in to assist.
Within 24-hours we had precisely machined the lens gasket, the flange was boxed up, and the leak was successfully repaired; we saved IBB the time and expense of having to bring in equipment and a specialist team from Italy.
Equate awarded ANABEEB a four year Shutdown contract
July 14, 2014
ANABEEB is pleased to announce Equate has awarded us a four year contract covering various shutdown works on call-out basis.

New HP Jetting Systems Cut Duration by 60% at Aramco Yanbu.
May 15, 2014
ANABEEB deployed its newly acquired automated jetting machines and perfectly matched high volume pumps to clean 221 heat exchangers at Aramco Yanbu during the recent shutdown.
Previously ANABEEB would clean all these exchangers in 28 days manually using creeping hoses, but with the new semi-automated machines we cleaned all 221 heat exchangers in only 12 days and zero re-cleans were needed for eddy current inspection.
ANABEEB to Load Fresh Catalyst at All SABIC EO Reactors
March 10, 2014
Sabic is replacing all its Scietific Design Ethylene Oxide reactors over the next 18 months, and ANABEEB was awarded the contract by Dragados to load the fresh catalyst.
United EO1 and EO2 will be completed in 2014 and the remaining plants (Sharq, Saudi Kayan, and Yansab), will be finished in 2015.
Online Chemical Cleaning of Critical Heat Exchanger Saves SADAF $27m
March 01, 2014
ANABEEB has implemented a new technique for preventive maintenance of shell & tube heat exchangers, which removes waterside deposits and improves heat transfer capacity without shutting down production. A critical seawater surface condenser at SADAF regularly suffers from a high level of carbonate scale build up and is usually shutdown annually for 2-weeks and cleaned with a combination of acid circulation and HP Jetting.
In March 2014 ANABEEB successfully cleaned it online in only 24-hours and achieved the same cleaning result saving SADAF nearly US$ 27 million in unnecessary shutdown time.
