| UNIT REFERENCES, TEXTS, OUTCOMES AND ASSESSMENT DETAILS: | The most up-to-date information about unit references, texts and outcomes, will be provided in the unit outline. |
| Syllabus: | The unit focuses on the monitoring techniques and mitigation strategies required to assess corrosion in liquid environments with particular focus on oil & gas flowline, and develop and manage corrosion control programs. A deep understanding of the corrosion environment in liquid environments, oxygen and carbonic acid corrosion, corrosion cells and reactions, electrochemical theories and methods, 02, CO2 and HzS corrosion mechanisms, kinetics, product scale and its effects will be provided. Flow regimes in pipelines, corrosion types for different operating phases, predictive modelling, identification, detection and corrosion measurement, resistant alloys, inhibitors, intelligent pigging and monitoring devices. Topics covered in detail are: Top of the line corrosion, under-deposit corrosion, developing technologies, and improved maintenance plans to minimise corrosion as well as data interpretation, analysis and integration, as well as criteria for determining corrective action for high-level corrosion problems within a liquid corrosion system. |
