Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes practical sessions and exercises where participants carryout welding inspection. Theory learnt in the class will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. The piping system is one of the major assets of any process facility. Maintaining the integrity of the piping system is very critical for the safety and efficiency of the facility. Piping inspection is the first line of defense for maintaining the facility integrity and minimizing the maintenance cost. API 570 Piping Inspection Code covers inspection, rating, repair, and alteration procedures for piping systems and their associated pressure relieving devices that have been placed in service. This inspection Code applies to all hydrocarbon and chemical process piping systems. The code specifies the in-service inspection and condition-monitoring program as well as repair guidance that is needed to determine and maintain the on-going integrity of piping systems. During this interactive course, participants will learn the various design conditions and criteria, pressure design of piping components, fluid service requirements for piping components, fluid service requirements for piping joints, piping flexibility and materials; the fabrication, assembly and erection, inspection, examination and testing; the nondestructive testing methods; the welding discontinuities; and the ASME section IX WPS and PQR. Quizzes are given at the end of each section; homework is handed out at the end of each class day, which consists of 30 questions per day and is reviewed at the beginning of the following day, and a ?practice? exam is administered at the end of the course. Haward Technology is proud of its 90% pass rate on all our API sponsored courses.
