Background
In collaboration with ALim and Associates, this complete 2.5-day course (5-half days) provides an unbiased and complete introduction to pipeline inspection and anomaly assessment. In addition, advanced technologies for traditional and difficult-to-inspect pipelines will be explored. Background to and hands-on training in pipeline anomaly assessment will also be provided.
Participants will gain practical knowledge of inspection technologies, operational execution, and industry standards, with real-world case studies and interactive exercises.
The trainers have combined industry experience of nearly 90 years. This experience spans across diverse in-line inspection (ILI), non destructive testing (NDT) and engineering backgrounds and from various engineering & inspection service providers.
