Join us to explore how operators can move beyond inspection snapshots by connecting operational decisions to structural response. This gives teams clearer visibility into SMR behavior, remaining life, and turnaround confidence.
MEET AKSELOS AT
San Antonio, Texas
20–23 July 2026 | Booth 508
The API Inspection and Mechanical Integrity Summit brings together leaders focused on inspection, monitoring, NDE, corrosion, metallurgy, risk mitigation, standards, and regulatory alignment. As the industry evolves, operators need stronger ways to connect operating data to how the asset is actually responding.
Steam methane reformers operate under extreme temperatures and complex structural interactions. Headers, pigtails, tubes, hangers, and collectors do not behave as isolated components. Akselos Structural Performance Management (SPM) models the complete SMR system to understand how operating decisions—like firing intensity and throughput—affect creep damage and tube life across the entire asset.
SPM helps teams reconstruct asset behavior from existing process data, track tube-level creep, and calibrate models with inspection data. This turns structural understanding into better decisions about reliability, inspection focus, life assessment, and turnaround planning.
Featured Technical Engagement | Akselos’ Approach to SMR Thermal and Structural Modeling
David Knezevic will present Akselos’ approach to SMR thermal and structural modeling, covering tube heat transfer, SMR structural modeling, material modeling, temperature and creep tracking, and re-calibration through tube dilation inspection.
The session will show how physics-based AI uses existing process data to understand how physical systems behave, supporting continuous insight into SMR temperature, creep, and asset behavior.
