Objectives
- Participants will gain the most through understanding of sound engineering practice in installing new piping system and how to apply the latest techniques for determining fitness for service, following the two level approach of API 579, leading to an ability to make informed decisions whether to run or repair or replace the piping system.
- Employers will benefit from the ability to take full advantage of the best industry practices to avoid unnecessary shut-downs and repairs, thus ensuring continued safety of personnel, public and the environment, while extending the safe running of the plant, and therefore its productive life.
