API 16C Choke Kill Line

This specialized training course is designed to provide a detailed understanding of the API 16C standards for Choke and Kill lines, which are critical components in oil and gas drilling operations. The training course is essential for engineers, designers, and maintenance personnel involved with the high-pressure piping systems that are integral to drilling operations.

Over the training course of five days, participants will be guided through the comprehensive aspects of choke and kill line systems as per API 16C standards. Starting with an introduction to API 16C, the first day covers the scope, normative references, and essential terminology. The following days delve deeper into the specific requirements, starting with design requirements on Day Two, where topics like service conditions, product specifications, and design methods are discussed. Day Three focuses on material requirements including details on drilling chokes and closure bolting, while Day Four emphasizes welding techniques, quality control measures, and marking requirements necessary for compliance and safety. The final day addresses equipment-specific requirements and provides crucial guidance on storing and shipping these critical components. By the end of the API 16C Choke Kill Line training course, attendees will gain a robust understanding of the design, implementation, and maintenance of choke and kill lines in compliance with API 16C standards, ensuring operational safety and efficiency.
