Corrosion Control in the Oil & Gas & Process Industries



Introduction:


Corrosion costs the oil & gas and process industry millions of dollars every year in equipment maintenance and replacement, leaks and system failures. Join your peers at this course and gain a deep understanding of corrosion processes and monitoring, corrosion control and corrosion prevention techniques. With a specific focus on the oil & gas and process industry you will learn the latest developments and best practices in materials engineering as well as technologies to prevent and mitigate corrosion effects.

Course Objectives:


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

 

  • Understand the cost of corrosion in the oil & gas and process industry
  • Understand the importance of adopting an inspection strategy
  • Advantages and disadvantages of available corrosion monitoring techniques
