Refinery Separation Processes 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 their impact on crude
distillation and vacuum distillation process units, including the corrosion
mechanisms and their impact on equipment and instruments. The course
discusses corrosion-preventing actions that can be applied during the design
stage and control actions during normal operation, routine, and special
maintenance activities.
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 refining installations.
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.
