Advanced Internal Corrosion for Pipelines

  • The Senior Internal Corrosion Technologist should have a thorough understanding of electrochemical and corrosion principals, field testing, laboratory analysis, monitoring techniques, and mitigation strategies. They should also be capable of comprehensive environment assessments required to develop and manage internal corrosion control programs, have sufficient knowledge and experience to determine corrective action for high-level internal corrosion problems within a pipeline system, be able to implement internal corrosion integrity programs as directed, and be able to conduct and direct all phases of ICDA.
  • The course focuses on data interpretation, analysis, and integration, as well as criteria for determining corrective action for high-level internal corrosion problems within a pipeline system, will be covered in detail. Classroom instruction consists of lecture, group exercises, and cases studies.

Learning Outcomes

    Determine if internal corrosion exists by evaluating a set of criteria to identify and apply monitoring techniques such as:

    • Corrosion coupons
    • Electrical field mapping
    • Ultrasonic testing
    • Linear polarization and electrical resistance probes
    • Hydrogen and microbiological monitoring

    Properly select inspection techniques including:

     

    • Visual Inspection
    • Automated Ultrasonic Testing (AUT)
    • Magnetic Flux Leakage
    • Guided Wave Ultrasonic Testing (GWUT)
    • Manual Ultrasonic Testing
    • Eddy Current (EC)
    • Ultrasonic Testing (UT)
    • Radiographic Testing (RT)
    • Determine when mitigation is required and the appropriate mitigation methods to utilize including maintenance pigging, physical design changes, and operational modifications.
