  • Accident Tracking

     Boiler and Pressure Vessel accidents are not a very published item.  In North America we have seen a big improvement  in safety thanks to

     organizations like the ASME the National Board and our Jursdictions.  We seldom see accidents listed in our day to day communications.  As

     such, this website is trying to keep this information readily available and in front of the public.  Whenever we hear of an event we will post it

     here.  You can help us by dropping us an email whenever you come in contact with new information. Pictures are welcome and encouraged.   

     Starting in  2012 the below will be linked to the story where the information came from. 

    If you become aware of an Accident during the year please drop an email to mkeenan@thewbia.com. 

    We will get it posted!

    We must remain vigilant!!
