About our courses
Training tools Our courses are structured to provide a classroom environment that stimulates learning and aids retention. Here is how we do it: Course content Courses are written by our own practising, chartered engineers bringing years of specialist expertise and the latest industry developments straight to the classroom. Course structure Courses are written in modules and structured with regular breaks to keep delegates fresh throughout the day. Teaching style Tutors use group discussions, worked examples and question and answer sessions to stimulate thinking. Videos Videos and animations are used to show the real-life application of technology, materials and processes. Samples A range of material and equipment samples are a popular addition to courses, allowing delegates to touch, feel and understand their use in industry. Training apparatus Bespoke training equipment is used to replicate the subsea environment, helping delegates to visualise effects of external conditions on pipelines, such as pressure. Course notes Full colour course notes provide comprehensive study packs during the course as well as useful reference material when back in the office.

Integrity management of subsea pipelines – Part 1 Level: Practitioner Duration: 3 days
Purpose of this course Gain an in-depth understanding of the engineering principles behind successful integrity management of subsea pipelines. Benefits for delegates You will learn about the issues and activities required to run subsea pipelines in optimum condition. You will learn how to assess a range of integrity threats and understand the key engineering issues affecting subsea pipelines. Benefits for employers Team members will gain a comprehensive understanding of the key issues affecting the integrity of subsea pipelines and the ability to assess defects in a staged approach, using basic screening tools to undertake detailed assessments. Who this course is for Anyone responsible for maintaining or operating subsea pipelines, including: Pipeline engineers and managers Integrity engineers Production engineers Flow assurance engineers Facilities engineers Subsea pipeline specialists Project managers Operations engineers and managers Recommended follow on course: Integrity management of subsea pipelines – Part 2

Integrity management of subsea pipelines – Part 2 Level: Practitioner Duration: 3 days
Purpose of this course Gain an in-depth understanding of issues affecting the integrity management of deepwater risers and flowlines. Benefits for delegates You will learn directly from case-studies of real pipeline failures, reviewing why the failures occurred and understanding how lessons learned can be applied to your pipelines. You will learn efficient ways to perform integrity assessments and manage corrosion defects. Benefits for employers Organisations will benefit from team members who understand how to build ‘integrity’ into assets during the design, construction and operation phase of offshore pipelines, ultimately improving operating costs whilst reducing the risk of pipeline failure. Who this course is for Anyone responsible for maintaining or operating subsea pipelines, including: Pipeline engineers and managers Integrity engineers Production engineers Flow assurance engineers Facilities engineers Subsea pipeline specialists Project managers Operations engineers and managers Plus anyone who has attended Integrity management of subsea pipelines – Part 1
