Course Description
This course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive overview of the latest API 653 certification program. It will prepare the inspectors to pass the API 653 examination in order for them to be certified as API 653 Inspectors. The course covers the inspection, repair, alteration and reconstruction of steel aboveground storage tanks used in the petrochemical industry; the API 653 body of knowledge, scope, reference publications, definitions, suitability for service and brittle fracture considerations; the several aspects involved in the inspection, materials, design considerations for reconstructed tanks, tank repair and alteration, dismantling and reconstruction, welding, examination and testing, marking and recordkeeping; and the scope, materials, design, fabrication, erection, methods of inspecting joints,
The course will also discuss the selected nondestructive examination (NDE) methods, types of storage tanks, reasons for inspection, causes of deterioration, frequency of inspection and methods of inspection and inspection scheduling; the corrosion of aboveground steel storage tanks, determination of need for cathodic protection, methods of cathodic protection for corrosion control, design of cathodic protection systems, interference currents and the operation and maintenance of cathodic protection systems; the various corrosion mechanisms, the need for tank bottom lining, tank bottomlining selection, surface preparation, inspection and repair of tank bottom linings and safety; the general damage mechanisms and refining industry damage mechanisms; and the welding inspection, welding processes, refinery and petrochemical plant welding issues, nondestructive test methods, WPS and PQR requirements.
This comprehensive 40-hour course consists of five 8-hour teaching days. It is designed to accomplish a two-fold training agenda: (1) To train those individuals who are interested in obtaining the API 653 Tank Inspection Certification; and (2) To train those who require a working knowledge of the intricacies encountered in the working environment.
Quizzes are given at the end of each section; homework is handed out at the end of each class day, which consists of 25 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.
