Corrosion Inspection, Diagnosis, Failure Analysis & Condition Assessment

Stationary equipment including pressure vessels, storage tanks and piping systems, as well as rotating machinery, i.e. pumps, compressors, turbines, in oil and gas and associated facilities, play important role in modern industrial operations. Due to extreme working conditions, they are exposed to material degradation and damage mechanisms throughout their service life, and Corrosion Problems have always presented a Severe Challenge to all Industrial Field Operations. Operators plan for long periods of continuous production with maintenance schedules for the prescribed shutdown periods.

All industrial problems which confronts the engineers, few can be economically more important than the prevention of metallic corrosion and mechanical failure. The corrosion failure of metallic materials causes billions of dollars globally every year. so This course aims to present the best practices regarding diagnosing the potential problems in operation in order to prevent failures and catastrophic accidents.

The course will  talk about two major aspects of industrial and governmental problems. The corrosion and fracture mechanics. Preventing or reducing the corrosion mechanism will increase the productivity and efficiency of any plant. in otherhand it will  emphasize that the diagnostics skills can be developed and explain the role of the multidisciplinary team approach. also it will introduce relevant API standards that provide guidelines for planning the scope and frequency of equipment inspection and condition monitoring.

It is deemed very important for the delegates to have a full understanding of the material degradation processes, risk analysis of equipment failures and available prevention and remedial technologies.

finally The course considers external protection using corrosion resistant materials, coatings, and cathodic protection. The importance of internal corrosion and its prevention will be examined with emphasis on material selection, coatings and use of corrosion inhibitors, and and it will highlights protection methods and fracture prevention methods. Alloy selection and material design is also considered from a practical angle… be with us
