Introduction:
This training course on corrosion control in gas, oil, and water gives participants a thorough understanding of corrosion and focuses on methods for monitoring and minimizing damage as well as on the investigation and identification of metallurgical issues that arise in process units.
In the petrochemical and water industries, equipment expenses account for a sizeable portion of investment. For long-distance, large-diameter pipelines, these prices may become unaffordable if the fluid’s corrosively requires the use of corrosion-resistant alloys rather than carbon steel. Better understanding and control of the corrosion of carbon steel can increase its application range and therefore have a large economic impact.
The control of corrosion is a crucial necessity for oil and gas operations. It applies engineering ideas and practices to reduce corrosion to a manageable level using the most cost-effective strategy. Complete corrosion eradication is rarely practicable or cost-effective, thus one or more of the following techniques would often be used.
Early detection of potentially harmful processes or situations that could lead to corrosion-induced failures is made possible by corrosion monitoring. Additionally, the correlation between changes in process parameters and their impact on system corrosion will be covered in this Corrosion Control in Gas, Oil, and Water training course. Monitoring for corrosion is necessary to assess the lifespan of pipes and determine whether a replacement or closure is likely to be necessary soon.
This course will feature:
- Metallurgy and engineering material properties
- The cost of corrosion damages in industries
- Proper corrosion mechanisms related to the oil, gas and water
- Major corrosion control and mitigating programs
- Advanced techniques of corrosion monitoring

Organizational Benefits
The organization gains will include:
- Increased corrosion failure pre-emption capability across the organization
- Optimized corrosion and integrity costs
- Extended equipment and asset life due to reduced corrosion rates
- Increased production / operation times and reduced number of unplanned shutdowns
Personal Benefits
Participants will get a better understanding of the primary core causes for the majority of corrosion difficulties and failures, which will help them mitigate and control corrosion more effectively. They will benefit from taking the course by:
- Learning how the overall integrity management and inspections could become more efficient through a risk-based approach
- Learning How the organization’s capability in pre-empting corrosion failures increases
- Learning how the pertinent integrity and corrosion costs are optimized
- Learning how various non-corrosion engineering-based integrity measures could also significantly enhance corrosion control and mitigation often at no or very little costs
