Offshore Oil and Gas industries always operate in highly demanding environment. Materials Selection, Welding & Corrosion challenges are immense and require excellent knowledge and expertise.
This training is an extensive, in depth 5-day course on welding, metallurgy, and corrosion aspects of various materials used in Offshore Oil and gas Industries and is targeted to develop the skills in handling these underlined issues.
This training discusses in great details, various alloys, their metallurgical properties, design requirements as per the construction codes, welding practices, damage mechanisms, mitigation in offshore oil and gas production environments. It narrates materials selection criteria, welding problems, corrosion requirements and the best ways to achieve best results under most demanding offshore oil and gas production environments.
This training focuses on the best- and worst-case scenarios with respect to Oil and Gas, metallurgy, welding and corrosion issues and improves the attributes as listed below:
- This training is designed to increase knowledge base of the participants with respect to the above titled issues
- Make them aware of various materials used in Offshore O&G environments and associated welding engineering challenges
- Make them aware of corrosion issues in Offshore O&G environments and associated Life Cycle engineering challenges
- Get familiarized with the world class engineering standards. e.g., NACE, EEMUA, ASME / ASTM, Norsok, Various Leading Oil and Gas Design / Materials Selection Standards
- At the end, apply the right design, materials engineering to the best interest of the organization & projects related to O&G engineering
