This 5-day corrosion short course aims to provide the participants with a thorough understanding of the various damage mechanisms contained in the latest edition of API RP 571-2011 that can affect process equipment, the type and extent of damage that can be expected, and how this knowledge can be applied to the selection of effective inspection methods to detect size and characterize damage. The 66 damage mechanisms to be discussed in this corrosion short course are common to a variety of  industries including refining and petrochemical, pulp and paper, and fossil utility.

This course has been designed to train individuals must have knowledge of damage mechanisms and associated failures, the critical parameter that aggravate damage mechanism inspection and Prevention & Mitigating methods of Probabilities and associated Consequence
