About the course

In response to the severe risks associated with material failure in the oil and gas industry, there are stringent regulations and standards regarding material quality, performance, and safety. What are the laboratory testing methods needed to demonstrate adherence to these industry standards? Having personnel who understand these testing methods provides organizations with team members who are familiar with the necessary testing steps, and the required documentation, so as to feed into the efficient selection, maintenance, and performance evaluation of materials.

This course on laboratory testing of materials in oil and gas production provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of the testing methods and procedures used in the industry. It covers various types of materials, testing techniques, and their applications in the oil and gas sector. By covering these key topics, the course provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of material testing in the context of oil and gas production, equiPiping them with the knowledge and skills necessary for effective testing and evaluation of materials used in the industry.

The course consists of 12hr of live sessions with the instructor. All training content is provided through your EngineeringTrainer account.
