The annual losses due to corrosion and the cost of rectification run to several billion dollars in oil & gas exploration industries around the world.
High production under aggressive and extreme operational conditions necessitates the development of new materials which also have peculiar failure behaviours.
Thus, the industry operators are on continuous perusal with different corrosion management strategies. Yet unforeseen failures of top-side, sub-surface and sub-sea infrastructure due to corrosion not only entails in loss of production but loss of life as well.
The Successful corrosion management influences the economic outcome of the company by ensuring cost effective selection of materials, chemical treatments, coatings, cathodic protection systems and appropriate designs.
This course is designed for engineers and operators engaged in oil and gas exploration industry requiring an understanding of corrosion fundamentals: the causes and control of corrosion in oil and gas production and processing. This course will provide an overview of what corrosion is and what the major corrosion issues are in upstream oil and gas operations. The focus will be on understanding how materials corrode, what techniques are used to monitor corrosion and some basic corrosion control fundamentals. The participants will be introduced to inhibitors and how they work, corrosion monitoring in field applications and cathodic protection. The course content is presented from a practical production operations viewpoint and provides participants with the basic skills and understanding to control and solve corrosion issues.
At the end of this course the participants will be able to:
- Understand the causes and control of corrosion in oil and gas production and processing
- Provide an overview of what corrosion is and what the major corrosion issues are in upstream oil and gas operations
- Understand how the materials corrode
- Learn techniques to be used to monitor corrosion and some basic corrosion control fundamentals
- Get skills and understanding to control and solve corrosion issues
Corrosion Control Oil and Gas Exploration Industry Training course m is ideal for :
