Corrosion
Management (CM) is a new concept and expertise whose advent could be traced
back to the publication of the UK’s HSE book on the subject in May 2008 and
NACE’s four books since 2012. CM applications will render an existing asset
integrity management system (AIMS) more effective, efficient and risk-based.
Simultaneously, such applications enhance teamwork, communication and personnel
competency. However, their two most important benefits are the increasing
corrosion failure pre-emption capability of an organisation and the optimizing
of corrosion/integrity costs.
The
Corrosion Management concept is different from corrosion engineering and
Corrosion Management applications simply complement the incumbent corrosion
engineering integrity measures already in place. Utilizing Corrosion Management
principles could bring about significant asset integrity enhancements,
sometimes at very little or no extra costs to the organization.
Corrosion
Management initially started from UK’s Offshore Hydrocarbon Industry; however,
upon successful applications worldwide other non-hydrocarbon industries have
also become interested in receiving Corrosion Management training and
consultancy services.
This course will
highlight:
The CM Concept and how it differs
corrosion engineering
How the CM Concept is implemented
across an asset
What the main benefits of CM
applications are
The products/tools of the CM
application process
Corrosion failure pre-emption
& corrosion/integrity cost optimization via CM applications
Training Objectives
What are the Goals?
By the end of this course, participants will learn to:
Fully understand and appreciate
the CM concept
Develop asset CM strategy and
implementing it
Determine corrosion control
matrices
Determine corrosion key
performance indicators
Design and apply various CM tools
and products
Target Audience
Who is this Training Course for?
Anybody
within the company or among its contractors who is associated with corrosion
engineering, asset integrity management, inspections, chemical treatments,
coating systems, cathodic protection, project engineering, asset management and
repair and maintenance would greatly benefit from this course.
This course is suitable
to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
Corrosion & Integrity
Engineers
Production & Operation
Engineers
Inspection Engineers
Repair & Maintenance Engineers
Coating & CP Engineers
Asset Project Engineers &
Asset Managers
Chemical Treatment Suppliers
Corrosion Monitoring Systems
Suppliers & Lab Technicians
Training Methods
How will this Training Course be Presented?
The
teaching will be done via PowerPoint slides containing text, tables, plots,
pictures, etc. The teaching will be interactive; that is, on a regular basis
the participants will be asked to participate in an ongoing topic, discussion
or challenge. Past integrity case studies will be presented throughout the
training course to promote best international practices while simultaneously
discouraging integrity practices which had resulted in impairing asset
integrity in various projects. The training course will end with a short exam
to further help all the participants to remember all the important subjects,
concepts and practices discussed throughout the course.
Organizational Impact
The
organization as a whole will gain a new knowledge and set of skills which will
help them to significantly enhance their corrosion mitigation and control and
further optimise their pertinent integrity costs.
The organization gains will include:
Improved (site) personnel safety
and environmental protection
Enhanced teamwork, communication
and reporting
Increased corrosion failure
pre-emption capability across the organization.
Optimised 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 Impact
Participants will learn to mitigate and control corrosion more
efficiently through improved understanding of premier root causes behind the
majority of corrosion issues and failures. Attending this course will help them
to:
Learn what corrosion management
concept is and how it differs from corrosion engineering
How the corrosion management
process is implemented across an asset
How the overall integrity
management and inspections could become more efficient through a
risk-based approach
How the organisation’s capability
in pre-empting corrosion failures increases
How the pertinent integrity and
corrosion costs are optimized
How various non-corrosion
engineering-based integrity measures could also significantly enhance
corrosion control and mitigation often at no or very little costs
