5 training days · 15 modules · hands-on workshops
Establish the scientific basis of corrosion and its occurrence in oil and gas environments.
Corrosion diagnosis exercise: groups classify corrosion types from inspection photographs and maintenance records for a series of real equipment failures.
Apply corrosion monitoring and inspection techniques within an RBI framework.
RBI workshop: teams apply the API 580 semi-quantitative method to a process unit equipment list, ranking by risk and proposing optimised inspection intervals.
Design and evaluate cathodic protection systems for buried and submerged metallic assets.
CP design exercise: groups design a 25-year CP system for a buried pipeline segment, specifying anode type, quantity, and placement to achieve the protection criterion.
Select and evaluate coating systems and chemical inhibition programmes for corrosion mitigation.
Coating specification task: teams write a complete coating specification for a process vessel in sour service, including surface prep, primer, intermediate, and topcoat selections.
Build a systematic corrosion management framework and apply fitness-for-service assessment.
Capstone corrosion management plan: groups develop an end-to-end corrosion management plan for a provided asset, covering threat identification, monitoring plan, mitigation strategy, and performance KPIs.
