Lewis’ 70 Years in Pipelines Honored

Ray Lewis, who has been sharing his wealth of knowledge and leadership in the areas of pipeline pressure testing technology and in-line inspection for an incredible seven decades, was honored at the Pigging Pipeline Integrity Management (PPIM) Conference on Jan. 31 in Houston.

Among his numerous accomplishments, Lewis spent more than 20 years on the ASME B31.8 Code Committee, for which he was presented with the ASME Certificate of Achievement for Meritorious Service by Robert Appleby at the event.

As a patriarch for the growth and mentorship of the ROSEN family of employees, and a building block for the industry, Mr. Lewis was instrumental in paving the way for ROSEN’s success in the U.S. market, a company spokesman said. In 2017, Lewis retired at 90 years of age.
