API-579/ASME FFS-1 FITNESS FOR SERVICE |
|
Description:
This course covers how to assess the fitness-for-service of pressure equipment, piping and storage tanks that have been found non-compliant with the original design condition. The objective with the course is to gain an understanding of the way API579-1/ASME FFS-1 2021 is organized for each of the parts relating to the assessment of corrosion, fracture, creep, mechanical or other in-service damage. The Step-by-Step procedures for each section will be explained and each of the assessment methods will be followed with hands-on examples for students to complete or to be completed jointly. The course will also cover how the procedure offers ways of rerating the pressure equipment. In addition, remaining life assessment options will be discussed for some common damage mechanics such as fatigue and creep, followed by some case studies. The course will be offered online over 16 hours for 3 days typical around 5.5 hours each day. |
