In Person: Pipeline Anomaly Assessment | Brisbane | 21st - 22nd November, 2023

Pipeline Anomaly Assessment Training

Expand your knowledge on pipeline anomaly assessment by joining us for a two-day in-person training course in Brisbane this November. Our comprehensive course aims to provide the key parameters and input data considerations when assessing different anomaly types, and how this relates to AS 2885.3 compliance. It will also outline how full value can be obtained from high quality in-line inspection data, helping operators to minimise uncertainty and residual risk in their integrity management programme. At the end of the course, you will understand and be able to discuss terminology, concepts, principles, and issues related to pipeline anomaly assessment.
