Plenary Speaker the approach used by Ontario Power Generation, the largest utility on the Province
of Ontario, Canada, to meeting this challenge. The approach is based upon main-
taining diverse energy supply sources, including major nuclear, hydraulic and ther-
mal generating stations. To meet the future energy need, it will be necessary to
optimizing each element of the mix. This involves three main elements:
maximizing the current life of the existing facilities through advanced Ageing
Management Programs,
investing in renewing facilities to provide extended life, for example through
major refurbishments of nuclear facilities, and re-powering some formerly
coal-fired stations
adding new generating assets to the fleet.

components. He began his engineering career at Rockwell Manufacturing Com-
pany in Barberton, Ohio. There he rose quickly from a valve Design Engineer for
the power industry to a Project Engineer on valve applications before advancing
to the position of a Research Engineer within the Valve Engineering Research
(VER) department. Rockwell International subsequently moved him to the corpo-
rate headquarters research center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. At VER, Dr.
Ezekoye explored innovative valve design concepts and performed flow testing
to determine their performance characteristics. His research also included simu-
lating the behavior of check valves in postulated pipe break events in sodium re-
actors. His work caught the attention of his Westinghouse collaborators which
resulted in him joining the Westinghouse Water Reactor Division, where he spent
the vast majority of his professional career that spanned more than 30 years ad-
vancing the design and application of valves in nuclear power plants and the eval-
uation of valve failures.
In retirement from Westinghouse, Dr. Ezekoye has been providing valve consulting
services to Westinghouse Electric Company in valve design and applications as-
sociated with launching of AP1000 nuclear power plants worldwide, supporting
existing commercial nuclear power plant upgrades and supporting the resolution
of equipment reliability issues. In this context, Dr. Ezekoye has supported the
Pressurized Water Reactor Owners Group (PWROG) projects in the resolution of
several Nuclear Regulatory Commission Generic Letters (GLs) such as GL 96-
05, covering age related degradation of safety related motor operated valves, GL
95-07, covering pressure locking and thermal binding of safety related gate valves,
Generic Safety Issue (GSI) 191, covering downstream effects of safety related
components ingesting debris following postulated pipe break in nuclear power
plants, and GL 08-01, covering gas intrusion in safety related piping.
A longtime member of the ASME, Dr. Ezekoye has served as Secretary, Vice Chair
and Chair of the Operations, Applications and Components (OAC) committee of
the ASME Pressure Vessels & Piping Division (PVPD). He has organized, chaired
and co-chaired many technical sessions, and conducted a PVPD tutorial. He was
a member of the PVPD Honors and Awards Committee. He was an Associate Ed-
itor of the Journal of Pressure Vessel Technology. Currently, Dr. Ezekoye is a
member of PVPD Professional Development Committee. A licensed professional
engineer, Dr. Ezekoye has been an ASME Fellow since 2000 and became an
ASME Life Fellow in 2007. He has been recognized by the ASME with several
awards for his contribution to the organization including the ASME Dedicated Serv-
ice Award (2004). He has published over 100 technical papers and one book chap-
ter and conducted seminars nationally and internationally. Dr. Ezekoye has over
11 US patents and numerous invention disclosures.

Process and Benefits of ASME Pressure Technology Codes & Standards
Development
Bill Bees, Consulting Engineer, and Mahendra Rana, Praxair, Inc.
Have you ever wondered how all of the Codes & Standards stuff that ASME pro-
duces happens? In addition to the advantages and benefits that ASME members
gain from membership in the PVP Division and attendance and participation in
the ASME Pressure Vessel & Piping Conference, ASME can also offer additional
benefits to folks with these interests in the area of Codes & Standards develop-
ment. In this special tutorial, we will:
Explain the overall process used in development of ASME Codes & Stan-
dards, and specifically those in the area of Pressure Technology Codes &
Standards;
Describe the consensus process used in the Codes & Standards develop-
ment process and the ANSI approval process;
Explore the benefits to participants in ASME Codes & Standards develop-
ment activities;
Discuss the various types of participation in the Codes & Standards Com-
mittees, qualifications, and the expectations of the participants;
Explore the relationship between the ASME Pressure Vessels & Piping Di-
vision and ASME Codes & Standards;
Explain the overall Committee Structure under the Board on Pressure Tech-
nology Codes & Standards and their areas of responsibilities; and
Discuss some of the emerging areas in Pressure Technology and the ones
currently seeking participants.
One of ASMEs most valuable assets is our relationships with the volunteer mem-
bers who serve on our Codes & Standards committees. It is ASMEs policy to af-
ford all persons with direct and material interest, without regard to country of
citizenship or residency, the opportunity to participate in the ASME Codes & Stan-
dards development process. Membership on a committee normally represents
you as an individual, rather than as a representative of your employer or another
organization.
The last part of the Special Tutorial will be an open question and answer session
to discuss any questions you may have. So come and ask the experts about an-
other way to get involved with ASME.

Piping Probabilistic Fracture MechanicsApproaches and Applications
Xinjian Duan, Candu Energy Inc.; Dilip Dedhia, Structural Integrity Associ-
ates, Inc.; David Rudland, US Nuclear Regulatory Commission; Remi Din-
greville, Sandia National Laboratory
This technical tutorial provides an overview of the fundamental probabilistic frac-
ture mechanics (PFM) concepts. Probabilistic fracture mechanics has been in-
creasingly used in Fitness-for-Service assessment of aging piping, reactor
vessels, and steam generator tubing in recent years. Probabilistic fracture me-
chanics has also been used to provide the technical justification for the perform-
ance demonstration of Non Destructive Examination (NDE) systems, to rank the
locations for Risk Informed In-Service Inspection (RI-ISI), and to enhance the
technical basis of Probabilistic Risk Assessment (PRA). A number of PFM codes
have been developed since the early 1980s, such as: PRAISE, PRO-LOCA,
SRRA, xLPR and PRAISE-CANDU.

Overview of ASME Post Construction Standards PCC2,3: Repair of Pres-
sure Equipment and Piping
John L. Arnold, Niantic Bay Engineering, LLC; Jaan Taagepera, Chevron En-
ergy Technology Co.; Steven Roberts, Shell Oil Co.
This technical tutorial provides an overview of each of the five Parts in the stan-
dard, with some specific Articles receiving more focused attention. Originally pub-
lished in 2007 as a 2006 edition, PCC-2 is still a relatively young and rapidly
developing standard. Engineers working in facilities which incorporate vessels
and piping inevitably must repair these sooner or later. This standard provides
guidance on how to accomplish such repairs. By the end of the tutorial, the audi-
ence will have an in depth understanding of the scope and coverage of PCC-2,
as well as some insight into particular Articles.

Assessment/Design of Petrochemical Piping Systems and Components Lo-
cated in Earthquake-Prone Zones
Oreste S. Bursi, University of Trento, Italy; Fabrizio Paolacci, University of
Rome, Italy
Seismic assessment/evaluation has become an imperative for the proper design
of structures to safeguard them against earthquakes. This tutorial provides an in-
sight into the seismic design/assessment of industrial piping systems and com-
ponents typical of petrochemical plants. In particular, the current code-based
approach defined by American and European standardse.g., ASME, ASCE and
Euro codeswill be illustrated along with more modern approaches derived from
Nuclear Power Plants codes. Case studies focusing on support structures, piping
networks and componentsi.e., elbows, flange joints and Tee jointswill be an-
alyzed and the results will be illustrated and commented in the light of the above
framework.

CONFERENCE INFORMATION
Technical Sessions and Programs
All technical sessions will be held in the Hotel. Each room will be equipped with
an LCD projector that can be connected to a personal computer for electronic pre-
sentations (e.g., Microsoft PowerPoint). Please note that ASME will not provide
personal computers, 35-mm slide projectors, VCRs, or overhead projectors. Per-
sonal computers are the responsibility of the session developer, or presenter. It is
strongly recommended that authors provide their materials to the session devel-
oper at, or before, the Authors Breakfast, so that all the papers in a session can
be loaded onto a single computer. Authors are recommended to have their pre-
sentations on a flash (pen) drive, in the event that compatibility problems occur
between their computers and the LCD.
The location of the session rooms is shown in the Hotel Floor Plan on the back
cover of this program.
