Internal Corrosion for Pipelines

Internal Corrosion for Pipelines

INTRODUCTION

This course was designed to provide participants with the implementing, monitoring, and maintaining an internal corrosion control program as part of an overall Pipeline Integrity Management program. It is an introductory level course focusing on internal corrosion of liquid and natural gas pipelines used for transmissions, storage, and gathering systems. The course includes exercise OQ Covered Task Assessments for the following tasks: (1) Insert and remove internal corrosion coupons, (2) Measurement of corroded area and pit depth measurement (with pit gauge), (3) Measure wall thickness using handheld ultrasonic meter.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This course is geared toward individuals at the technologist level who have some background and experience in corrosion and are familiar with pipeline operations.
