Why Choose this Training Course?

Why choose this online training course?

The latest edition of ASME BPVC, Section VIII, Division 1 (2019) deals with requirements applicable to the design, fabrication, and inspection and testing of pressure vessels operating internally or externally.

Based on the rules for pressure vessel design and construction, this PetroKnowledge online training course is a comprehensive introduction to the requirements of Section VIII, Division 1 including background, organization, design, materials, fabrication, inspection, testing and documentation of pressure vessels. The more commonly used subsections and paragraphs will be covered, and a discussion of individual problems or situations will be included.

Delegates attending this PetroKnowledge online training course will develop the following competencies:  

  • Understand the scope of the Code rules
  • Use of the Code rules to more common design and fabrication situations
  • Perform calculations for minimum required thickness
  • Prepare design specifications
