What you will learn


This technical course will give insight into:

- Line pipe, its manufacture, standards, defects, and defect acceptance levels
- Line pipe welds (longitudinal, and spiral), welding processes, inspection methods, and defects (e.g. lack of fusion, laminations, hook cracks, porosity)
- Pipeline welds (circumferential): standards, inspection methods, and defects (including geometric defects such as misalignment)
- Common pipeline construction related defects (e.g. misalignment) and their causes
- Common types of internal and external corrosion (e.g. pitting, general) and their causes
- In-service defects (e.g. mechanical damage, stress corrosion cracking and fatigue cracking
