IR Training for Petrochemical Companies, Natural Gas Production and Oil Refining Process Plants
"Petrochemical companies safely prevent unscheduled downtime, and improve the output of process equipment with this IR training."
This online IR training course for petrochemical industries is 21 hours long. It covers the theory and use of IR imaging to find and assess problems in oil and chemical plants. Topics covered include:
- Electrical distribution equipment.
- Mechanical systems.
- High-temperature processing equipment.
- Infrared inspection of boiler and heater tubes.
This IR inspection certificate course targets the petrochemical industry's most valuable areas. This course improves learners' understanding of the thermographer certification training requirements.
This online IR training course covers infrared theory, heat transfer concepts, equipment operation and selection, standards compliance, thermal imaging of gas & oil refineries, infrastructure inspection analysis, and report generation. Besides the infrared thermography basics previously mentioned, the course includes IR training topics specific to the oil refining process and natural gas production processing plant (petrochemical companies).
The course's self-directed learning activities help students gain practical experience and do not require an infrared camera to complete this course successfully. The petroleum engineering technician to the chemical engineering technician in the oil refining process to natural gas production industries will find this online IR course of great value. Petroleum engineering requires special safety conditions associated with IR inspections and application for petroleum engineering technicians/petrochemical plant maintenance when using IR technology. Consideration for ...
