Mechanical Engineering for Static Equipment

Cost Effective Methods for Design and Maintenance of Static Equipment

Course Overview

Pressure vessels, boilers, valves, storage tanks, and piping systems together represent major capital investment in any Oil / Gas Production Plants. Good fabrication of these components, based on rigorous material selection is likely to provide long service life of equipment. Material degradation and aging requires application of adequate diagnostic techniques and continuous monitoring. Regular monitoring and inspection techniques can help in providing basis for estimating the health of the existing components of the equipment as well as the overall risk assessment.

The delegates will be covering design, inspection and testing methods of storage tanks and piping systems according to the relevant API standards in order to perform the fitness for service (FFS) analysis. The most up-to-date methods of equipment protection methodologies will be presented together with maintenance activities, including necessary repairs as prevention of failures. This training course will also cover methodology of the risk assessment and management regarding the overall equipment integrity.

This Mechanical Engineering for Static Equipment training course will include several workshops with real problems from industrial practice which will enable discussions and exchange of experiences.

This Energy Training Centre training course will feature:

  • Material used for manufacturing of static equipment
  • Operation and maintenance of pressure vessels, Tanks, and pipelines
  • Design and operation of boilers and Valves
  • Heat exchangers: Operation and evaluation methods
