Refinery Storage Corrosion
About the eLearning Course
This eLearning course aims to educate on the sources of corrosion, types of
corrosion, and mechanisms for preventing or mitigating the impact on most of
the storage facilities in an oil refinery installation. It includes detailed discussions
on the corrosion mechanisms and the impact on equipment and instruments in
the storage facilities.
Corrosion-preventing actions that can be applied during the design stage and
control activities during normal operation, routine, and special maintenance
activities are discussed for each tank type and their associated facilities along
the eLearning course. Effective corrosion control minimizes its destructive
impact, thereby enhancing the operating cycles of process units, optimizing
maintenance costs, and ensuring safer and more profitable operations of the
refining installations and their storage facilities.
Target Audience
Process engineers, planning and economics engineers, inspection engineers, HSE
engineers, maintenance engineers and supervisors, laboratory managers and
supervisors, turnaround planners and operation supervisors.
You Will Learn
- Examine the sources and mechanisms of corrosion in feedstocks, intermediate streams, and final products storage facilities
