Engineering, Oil and Gas Courses


Corrosion Control in Gas, Oil & Water

Introduction:

This training course provides deep knowledge of corrosion control in the oil, gas, and water industries.

It examines and identifies metallurgical problems in process units, including metallurgy and corrosion control in oil and gas production and monitoring and damage reduction methods.

Corrosion control in gas and oil sectors and corrosion control in water fields is vital, as equipment costs are a considerable part of the investment in these areas.

For long-distance, large-diameter pipelines, costs can become prohibitively high if the fluid's corrosivity necessitates using corrosion-resistant alloys instead of carbon steel.

By better understanding and controlling corrosion, we can increase its application range and thus have a significant economic impact through corrosion control engineering and corrosion control training courses.

Corrosion Control in Oil & Gas:

Corrosion control in the oil and gas industry is an essential requirement. It utilizes engineering principles and procedures to minimize corrosion to an acceptable level through the most economical method, employing corrosion monitoring, corrosion control programs, and basic corrosion control techniques.
