Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops. This course covers the whole subject of subsea pipeline engineering, from system design and route selection through detailed engineering to construction, inspection, maintenance and decommissioning. It includes a large number of actual case studies and examples, some from the Gulf and others from the North Sea, North America and Africa. The course does not require previous experience of marine pipelines, but it is not a superficial overview, and it goes into detail about current thinking and recent developments. It includes a design exercise carried out by the delegates, working in small groups and under the guidance of the lecturer. Further, this course will also discuss the marine pipeline construction, route selection, hydraulics and flow assurance; the pipeline configuration, diameter and route selection; the design for strength as well as insulation and temperature control; and the marine environment, carbon steel line pipe, material of service and increasing corrosion resistance.During this interactive course, participants will learn the internal corrosion, external corrosion and coatings as well as the significance of cathodic protection; the correct process of lateral and upheaval buckling including pipelaying, codes, microbiological corrosion and spans; the proper method of shore approaches and the design for stability; the welding and decommissioning including pipeline construction; the mishap, risk and repair including trenching and burial; and the future development, inspection and monitoring for subsea pipeline.
