Level :Skilled
Prerequisite :
Provide evidence of a professional experience of at least 1 month, related to the concerned field.
Course Content
METALLURGY USED FOR PRESSURE EQUIPMENT & PIPING MANUFACTURING
-
Duration : 1 Day
Ferrous and non-ferrous material: microstructure, composition, mechanical properties.
Plates, forging, castings, piping, rolling, welding, post weld heat treatment.
Pressure equipment design and manufacturing.
USUAL TYPES OF CORROSION & DETERIORATIONS
-
Duration : 1 Day
Different types of industrial corrosion: uniform, pitting, crevice, intergranular, hydrogen embrittlement stress corrosion cracking, corrosion-erosion, galvanic, selective.
Definitions and basic mechanism: wet corrosion, dry corrosion.
TYPES OF CORROSION IN OIL & GAS INDUSTRIES & PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS - API 571
-
Duration : 1.5 Days
Use API 571 to study each type of corrosion along with possible prevention for pressurized vessel and piping.
Application to old plants already in service, or during design of new plants.
Specific corrosion occurring in industrial installations:
Hydrogen induced cracking, high temperature hydrogen attack, high temperature sulfur corrosion, oxidation, flue gas corrosion, naphthenic acid corrosion, polythionic acid corrosion, caustic soda stress cracking, Amines corrosion, CO2 corrosion.
Specific corrosion existing in chemical industry: corrosion by mineral acids, bases, nitrates, ammonia or chlorine.
Many corrosion case studies observed in process industry units: identification of corrosion root cause and mitigation to apply.
CORROSION PREVENTION & INSPECTION - API 510
-
Duration : 1.5 Days
Material selection and detailed engineering design to avoid corrosion based on API 510 principles.
Identification of operating windows.
Corrosion control by means of sampling, use of corrosion coupons and probes.
Cathodic protection with sacrificial anodes or imposed current.
Anticorrosion coatings and cladding.
Non-destructive testing.
Risk Based Inspection according to API 581.
Learning Objectives
Attendees will be able to implement the following skills:
Recognize the different forms of deterioration affecting industrial equipment,
Specify the elements to be taken into account to prevent corrosion,
Specify the elements to be taken into account to predict and control the evolution of an installed corrosion.
Ways & Means
Active teaching methods are used to promote a pooling of experience, under the lead of inspection specialist.
Actual accidents in refineries and chemical plants are analyzed to be aware of the risks.
Wide use of samples, videos and pictures to develop practical case studies for pressure equipment such as piping, heat exchanger, reactor, distillation column, boiler, etc.
Learning assessment
Knowledge assessment according IFP Training Certificate specific standards.
