About the Course
The Integrity Management of Subsea Pipelines course provides vital knowledge for oil and gas professionals, focusing on maintaining the integrity of subsea pipeline systems. It covers key themes including pipeline integrity management systems (PIMS), which are essential for ensuring safety and operational efficiency. Participants will learn about best practices in pipeline design and construction, including material selection, corrosion prevention, and protective coatings.
A significant portion of the course is dedicated to advanced techniques for detecting and mitigating threats to pipeline integrity. This includes identifying physical damage and corrosion, utilising cutting-edge inspection technologies. Attendees will gain practical skills in developing and implementing risk-based inspection plans, which help prioritise maintenance activities based on risk assessments.
The course also incorporates practical case studies. Through these case studies, participants can better understand the complexities and solutions associated with maintaining subsea pipelines.
Another important aspect covered is the management of aging pipelines. The course provides strategies for extending the operational life of pipelines through effective monitoring, regular maintenance, and innovative repair techniques. This is crucial for ensuring long-term reliability and safety.
By the end of the course, attendees will be equipped with the skills and knowledge necessary to ensure the reliability and safety of subsea pipelines, enhancing operational efficiency and protecting the marine environment.
