Course Overview

The growing number of ageing onshore and offshore oil and gas assets presents challenges related to their structural integrity. Over time, various mechanisms contribute to asset deterioration, resulting in serious safety, environmental, and business consequences, particularly if containment is lost. Catastrophic failures have far-reaching impacts, as shown in recent incidents.

Integrity Management is a risk-based process designed to minimize and manage the risk of asset failure through proven mitigation measures. Developing and implementing integrity management programs ensures that asset integrity is maintained throughout the asset's life.

A combination of health and safety systems, integrity management programs, and risk management techniques is crucial for maintaining safe and reliable assets, which helps preserve the operator's reputation. Understanding the condition of critical assets is key to improving inspection and maintenance planning and reducing unplanned activities and associated costs.

Operators are also increasingly seeking asset life extensions for additional hydrocarbon production. Life extension studies require extensive knowledge of structural design, material degradation, corrosion, fatigue, environmental factors, inspection, and maintenance methods. Additionally, operators must implement decommissioning and abandonment programs based on technical and commercial asset evaluations.

Objective:

Gain insight into the mechanisms of structural deterioration in ageing oil and gas assets.
Understand how to extend the life of assets and plan for asset integrity management.
Learn the requirements for regulatory inspections, decommissioning, and abandoning ageing assets.
Familiarize with the key codes, standards, and guidance documents related to ageing assets.
