Corrosion Short Courses: Materials Selection and Corrosion Control for Oil and Gas Production Systems, presented by NACE certified Corrosion Specialist , WebCorr Corrosion Consulting Services

Materials Selection and Corrosion Control for Oil and Gas Production Systems

Course Overview

corrosion short course: corrosion control and corrosion prevention The provision of well-established and robust material selection guidelines offers a means of satisfying long-term materials performance that meet the minimum requirements for a broad range of end users in the petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries. An additional benefit can be to enable product suppliers to develop, manufacture and provide off-the-shelf equipment that meets these requirements. In compliance with the best industry practice and relevant international standards, this 3-day advanced training course provides general requirements with guidelines for the selection of materials for systems and components, with due consideration to the transported fluids and the external environment. Course attendees are presented with a structured process to carry out materials selection in a consistent manner as a part of the engineering work, based upon a design basis for a particular installation. Guidance is given for the following:

(1) corrosion evaluations;
(2) materials selection for specific applications, or systems, or both;

(3) performance limitations for specific materials;
(4) corrosion control.

This training course is available for in-house training, on-demand, online, and on-Webex/on-ZOOM training worldwide. It can also be customized to meet the specific needs of your organization.

In-House Training Corrosion Courses/On-Site Training Corrosion Courses

If you are concerned with corrosion in your business, in-house training or on-site training is a great solution to train a group of employees from design, production, operation, quality assurance, inspection and maintenance, and technical sales and support on corrosion control and corrosion prevention technology. The contents of all our corrosion courses can be customized to fit your organization's needs.

There is no limit to the number of participants required for in-house training corrosion courses or on-site training corrosion courses. We conduct the in-house or on-site training corrosion courses at your company's premises worldwide and at a time convenient to your company.

Online Corrosion Courses and Distance Learning Corrosion Courses

All our corrosion short courses are available for online or offline distance learning. You can start an online course at any time and learn at your own comfortable pace, whenever and wherever you are. You have around-the-clock access to interactive and media-rich course materials, virtual labs, course instructions, course assignments, and course assessments. Discussions and questions related to the corrosion courses are posted on the website or exchanged through email for a period up to 12 months. Video conferencing or instant messaging can also be arranged for discussions of course topics. For those who do not have ready access to internet, we can send you our online course materials on a CD-ROM or DVD or USB memory stick for offline learning.

Corrosion Course-On-Webex

Webex is hosted by Cisco, a product purpose-built for real-time web communications. If you are an existing user of Webex, or if you are willing to experience the power of Webex, we can conduct the course for you over Webex with audio and video presentations and interactions with the course instructor and other course attendees in real-time. It is just like the physical classroom settings that everyone can interact with each other. Your questions will be answered in real time by our instructor.

PowerPoint Slides and Test Banks for Trainers, Instructors, Tutors, University Lecturers and Professors

If you are involved in teaching or training, you may wish to purchase a complete set of the trainer's package for this training course. The trainer's package comes complete with ready-to-use PowerPoint slides (fully editable) and test bank (with answer keys). These ready-to-use PowerPoint slides contain high quality color photographs, illustrations, animations, audio and video clips. The test bank contains questions in four categories: (1) true or false, (2) multiple choice, (3) calculation, and (4) reasoning and open-ended discussions. The trainer's package is suitable for in-house training and university teaching. This is exactly the same package that WebCorr uses to deliver our current training course.

The one-time lump sum fee allows your organization to use the training package and also modify it. For example, your organization may modify the course contents and re-name/re-brand the course under your organization’s name. WebCorr only retains the copyright of the original PowerPoint slides and test bank.
