Subsea Engineering: Materials Selection and Corrosion Control

2½ day training course for engineers specifying, operating and maintaining subsea oil and gas production equipment

As the world's oil and gas reserves become ever more depleted, companies are exploring production in remote locations and increasingly deeper waters.

The pressures, temperatures and compositions of the produced fluids, plus the seawater environment, place substantial demands on materials of construction. Intervention costs increase significantly in deeper waters, whilst inspection and monitoring for equipment integrity become more difficult. The industry has witnessed some expensive materials-related equipment failures from which we all must learn.

This training course is recommended for both discipline- and project-focused engineers from a variety of backgrounds who want to gain an understanding of the fundamental principles for selecting and specifying materials of construction for subsea equipment, and for corrosion control during deployment, commission and operation.

Delegates will be able to learn at first-hand from the experts in leading operating companies.

The course is operated in association with the Society for Underwater Technology (SUT), who are an international learned society actively promoting the development, dissemination, and exchange of ideas, information and technology arising from or related to the underwater environment. For more details on SUT and the other courses they offer, visit the SUT website.

The course is based on EEMUA 194 users’ guidelines, which may also be purchased separately in the EEMUA Online Shop.
