Why Choose this Training Course?
This Process Equipment & Piping Systems training course is designed to provide practical aspects of the mechanical design of pressure vessels, storage tanks, thermal equipment, piping systems and fluid transport machinery. The course will discuss the performance of these components under various operating conditions including in-depth explanation on the process of material degradation such as corrosion, erosion, fatigue and others that may lead to component failure.
Several examples and case studies included in the workshops and will demonstrate the application of Fitness for Service (FFS) assessment method that enables quantitative evaluation of the remaining life in service of any component of equipment. Failure prevention methods will also be discussed and explained.
The Process Equipment & Piping Systems training course will feature:
- Explanation of mechanical design of pressurized equipment according to ASME Code
- Consideration of best operating conditions: Integrity Operating Window and MOC
- Analysis of damage and degradation mechanisms that affect process equipment and piping
- Guidance for selecting the most appropriate inspection method based on API code guidelines
- Procedure for assessing the existing flaws and defects in the given component
What are the Goals?
By the end of this Process Equipment & Piping Systems training course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the safe design and operation of pressurized process equipment
- Follow the procedure for inspection and testing of process equipment
- Apply the fundamental concepts and strategies to prevent failures
- Use the best practices of FFS to estimate the remaining life of operating equipment
- Select the methods of repair and alteration of pressurized process equipment
Who is this Training Course for?
This Process Equipment & Piping Systems training course is designed to benefit all levels of Technical Personnel in the oil and gas industry as well as in chemical and process industries but will greatly benefit:
- Process, Mechanical and Chemical Engineers
