API 570 Training Course

COURSE OVERVIEW :

American Petroleum Institute (API) Piping Inspection Code 570 Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Rerating of In-Service Piping Systems is recognized and used with confidence worldwide. The Piping Inspector Certification Program (PICP) is developed for the continual high level of efficiency and safety through emphasizing professional credibility and process integrity. Process piping system is one of the critical production assets in the process industry. Organizations recognize the need to maintain an authorized inspection agency and technically assess qualified piping engineers and inspectors to ensure facilities are at top performance. Therefore, API 570 certification is one of the most sought-after professional competencies that enables inspectors to be actively involved in the improvement of industry & environmental health and safety performance, reinforcement management control, and compliance with inspection capabilities.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

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

  • Acquaint participants with the API 570 Code’s major ideas and technical vocabulary.
  • Explain the principles of piping design. To compute the thickness of a pipe’s wall.
  • Find out the MAWP, flange ratings, and scrap thickness for pipes, fittings, and valves.
  • Help participants understand the key concepts of the decline mechanism.
  • Introduce students to different ways of evaluating and decision-making.
  • Identifying a cost-effective approach towards making the 3’R’ decisions.
  • How to perform repairs, alterations, and re-evaluation of piping systems.
  • Assessment of future remaining life, Life extension methods for piping systems.
  • To help the delegate to pass the API 570 examination

WHO SHOULD JOIN?

This course is suitable and will especially benefit:

  • Professionals who are interested in getting the API-570 certification
  • Process Piping Inspectors
  • Piping Inspection Engineers
  • Plant Inspectors
  • Corrosion Engineers
  • QA/QC Engineers

COURSE METHODOLOGY:

Facilitated by an experienced TRAINER, our program will be conducted as a highly interactive work session (as opposed to lectures), encouraging participants to share their own experiences and apply their learnings to real-life situations. Each delegate will receive an extensive reference manual and case studies, while worked-out solutions will be handed out at the conclusion of the group discussions. This training course is designed to be a hands-on, exciting & learning experience.
