Training Course on Offshore Piping

Introduction

This course will familiarize offshore engineers, designers and construction personnel with standards, offshore Piping layout like platforms, FPSO, well head etc, Material, stress analysis design procedures and practices involved in the location of equipment and layout of piping systems. Completing piping arrangements take up the majority of man-hours in the design of a process plant and the designer is required to apply acceptable layout procedures. This 5-Day training course has been designed to cover all life cycle oil and gas offshore pipeline projects. This training course will give you the international insight of the subsea pipeline industry to enable you to retain your talent in order to ensure sustainable career growth.   This is an essential development for those who need to develop their knowledge and skills related to subsea pipeline design, installation, inspection and management.

Objectives

    By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

    • Maximize the economic value of the company by improving the knowledge of its employees about the design, installation, inspection, and repair of subsea pipelines
    • Learn about offshore pipeline maintenance and integrity management
    • Understand how offshore pipelines are designed
    • Learn about the challenges of offshore pipeline installation
    • Appreciate the different techniques of subsea pipeline inspection and repair
    • Learn about offshore pipeline integrity management
    • Learn how subsea pipelines and systems are connected to floating facilities

Training Methodology

This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations.
