Course Description

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. 
 
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview on the Corrosion Control in Refinery. It covers the importance of corrosion and its impact on refinery operations; the various forms of corrosion and mechanisms behind each; the fundamentals of electrochemical processes that lead to corrosion; the energy aspects and rate processes in corrosion; the different corrosive environments specific to refinery operations; the specific pathways and reactions involved in common types of corrosion; the material selection strategies to minimize corrosion; the role of different alloys in resisting corrosion; and the impact of impurities on corrosion and the design considerations to prevent corrosion. 
 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the techniques to alter the environment to reduce corrosion; the types of coatings and their application methods for corrosion protection; the cathodic and anodic protection methods; the use of chemical inhibitors to control corrosion; the corrosion monitoring systems; the non-destructive testing (NDT) methods and electrochemical monitoring techniques; the water chemistry and its role in corrosion; the analysis of deposits and scales; the corrosion rate calculation and corrosion in specific refinery units; the emerging technologies and materials in corrosion; the regulatory and safety aspects and economic impact of corrosion management; and the steps to develop a corrosion management plan.
