Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learned will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. Statistics shows that the total cost of corrosion control in the HC industry in the US alone is estimated at $3.692 billion. Of this total, maintenance-related expenses are estimated at $1.767 billion annually, vessel turnaround expenses account for $1.425 billion annually, and fouling costs are approximately $0.500 billion annually. Significant cost reduction can be achieved with timely and appropriate corrosion inspection. Asset integrity can be enhanced with corrosion monitoring and corrosion mitigation methods such as materials selection and chemical treatment. Some types or forms of corrosion can be prevented through good practices in materials selection and design, while others can be cured or controlled if diagnosed early. Corrosion diagnosis involves a number of destructive and non-destructive inspection and examination techniques. This course is designed to provide sufficient information for lab technicians to identify and apply corrosion control and materials selection procedures to overcome corrosion issues. An in-depth understanding of corrosion is not required to effectively prevent untoward corrosion in 80% of problem areas.
