Imperial Corporate Training Institute has created a comprehensive professional training course for Corrosion Engineering and Materials Protection in the Petrochemical Industry as a way to address a major challenge within the industry; Material Degradation and Asset Integrity. Petrochemical plants face environmental conditions which can be described as aggressive, with extreme temperature and pressure combined with Chemically Reactive Environments which increase the likelihood of corrosion failures. This course offers a detailed understanding of corrosion mechanisms and their effect on refinery equipment as well as offering practical opportunities to manage and to control and prevent the corrosion that occurs to industrial assets over their lifecycle. Participants of the course will acquire an understanding of Corrosion Engineering principles and how different chemical processing environments affect the behaviour of materials.
This Petrochemical training course seeks to draw a direct connection between the science of Corrosion and its application in a real world industrial setting. Topics covered include corrosion control methods, coatings, and other maintenance techniques which are used to maintain the integrity of pipelines, prolong the life of equipment, and ultimately develop a safe process. Through structured modules, participants will develop the skills necessary to assess corrosion risks, evaluate compatibility between chemicals, and to implement corrosion protection solutions for Refineries and Petrochemical Plants. A major focus of this course is preventive Corrosion Management, helping organisations to minimise the amount of downtime due to corrosion-related failures, to lower the cost of failure and to ensure compliance with safety and operational standards.
