Mitigating corrosion in oil and gas exploration.
No upcoming event
In the global oil and gas exploration industry, the yearly losses resulting from corrosion and the associated rectification expenses amount to many billions of dollars. The need for innovative materials with unique failure behaviours arises from high production under harsh and demanding operating circumstances. As a result, industry operators are always reviewing various corrosion management techniques. However, unanticipated corrosion-related failures of top-side, subsurface, and subsea infrastructure result in both production loss and fatalities. For production wells and other facilities to operate safely and profitably, corrosion management techniques include corrosion preventive measures, prediction of failure behaviours, and remaining useful life. Effective corrosion control ensures cost-effective selection, which affects the business's financial performance.
The purpose of this course is to provide engineers and operators working in the oil and gas exploration sector with a fundamental understanding of corrosion, including its causes and controls in the production and processing of oil and gas. An overview of corrosion and the main problems with it in upstream oil and gas operations will be covered in this course. Understanding how materials corrode, how to monitor corrosion, and some basic principles of corrosion control will be the main topics of discussion. The concepts of cathodic protection, corrosion monitoring in field applications, and inhibitors will be presented to the participants. The course gives participants the fundamental knowledge and abilities to manage and resolve corrosion problems. It is delivered from the perspective of real-world manufacturing processes.
By using effective corrosion control techniques based on entire life cycle corrosion economy, the company will be able to improve its corrosion management system.
It will be easier for participants to actively contribute to lowering the likelihood of unanticipated failures in corrosion control strategies as a whole.
Through increased productivity and competency, participants will improve their performance and competence in the field of corrosion management systems, adding value to their organisations.
Personnel who deal directly or indirectly with corrosion monitoring and control while employed in technical fields relating to assets integrity management.
