FE0700 : API 570: Piping Inspector (API Exam Preparation Training)

This practical and highly-interactive course includes
real-life case studies where participants will be
engaged in a series of interactive small groups and
class workshops.
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 re pair
guidance that is needed to determine and maintain the
on-going integrity of piping systems.
This course is designed to provide delegates with a comprehensive overview of the latest
API 570 certification program. It will prepare the inspectors to pass the API 570 examination
in order for them to be certified as API 570 Inspectors. Course participants will receive indepth
instruction on the applicable codes and standards (API and ASME). They will discuss
case studies, and solve homework & quizzes and gain the required knowledge for this highlevel
certification.
The next API 570 exam and have enough knowledge and skills to pass such exam in order
to get the API 570 certification; the inspection, repair, alteration and rerating of in-service
piping systems; the API 570 body of knowledge, scope, references, definitions, owner and
user inspection organization; the inspection and testing practices, frequency and extent of
inspection, inspection data evaluation, analysis and recording, repairs, alteration and
rerating of piping systems as well as inspection of buried piping.
The scope, piping components, reasons for inspection, inspecting for deterioration in piping,
frequency and time of inspection, and employ safety precautions and preparatory work as
well as inspection tools, inspection procedures, determination of retirement thickness and
records; 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, materials, fabrication, assembly and erection, inspection,
examination and testing as well as demonstrate nondestructive test methods; the welding
discontinuities and discuss 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.
