oxygen pitting
oxygen pitting
(OP)
We have a small boiler that has developed oxygen pitting. The boiler is of carbon steel construction and is 6 years old. I need to determine what the remaining life of the boiler is and the probability of its failure over time. It is difficult to do a ultra sound thickness test due to the size of the boiler. Can anybody recommend a method to determine the remaining life of the boiler and the probability of failure over the next few years?
Thanks
Thanks

Hopefully, for you, I'm wrong.
