Corrosion Control by Materials Selection & Design



Introduction:


Proper selection of materials and design are most effective in cutting the cost of corrosion and achieving low cost reliability as corrosion can be designed out of the system. It is always easier and cheaper to erase lines on a drawing than to repair or replace failed equipment or components in service. The theme throughout the course is how to put the right material in the right place in the right way. Practical rules in selection of materials and design guidelines against many different types of corrosion will be presented. Numerous case histories of real-life problems and practical solutions will be discussed. The purpose of this course is to provide the attendees with an overview of corrosion concerns in downstream oil & gas industries specific to refinery process units. It aims to identify and examine corrosion and metallurgical failures that may occur in any process and utility units within the refinery. The attendees will have an opportunity to examine techniques and practices that can be used to control corrosion.

Course Objectives:


By the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

 

  • Develop a comprehensive understanding of materials selection and corrosion control strategy in the downstream oil and gas industries
  • Describe techniques that can be utilized for mitigation of each mechanism of corrosion
  • Identify and define the dominating categories of refining corrosion
  • Identify plants areas susceptible to high-temperature threat and materials that can be used for prevention
  • Identify and explain mechanical failure that may occur in equipment and utilize appropriate techniques for prevention
  • Describe additional types of corrosion occurs in utility units of petrochemical plants
  • Identify the influential parameters in corrosion processes of each unit
