"PCMS has been a valuable tool for us and was instrumental in helping us win the VPP award. Through PCMS, we have been able to get a handle on our corrosion rates, and we've been able to better plan our turnarounds. PCMS allows us to better forecast our corrosion and inspection needs, to better classify our pipes and has enabled us to track valve repairs and recommended inspection frequencies. We can now spend more time on our high-priority hydrocarbons. I am very happy with the PCMS crew here!"

- Hollis Wood, Chief Inspector for Valero at Texas City.

“The CONAM PCMS Implementation Team's hard work, actions and good judgment during our 2002 Reliability and Expansion Turnaround secured the future for years to come. You have made your everlasting mark on the plant. The expansion and complexity added during the almost 90 day outage raised the refinery to an elite status like only a few others in our nation can claim. Your perseverance and diligence to see the project through completion is very much appreciated. I look forward to such time that we are asked to work together again. A true heartfelt Thank you for all that you accomplished.”

- J.R. Cesarini, Reliability and Turnaround Manager, Valero Refining Corp.
