There are millions of kilometers of onshore oil and gas pipelines around the world. As the industry expands and new staff are introduced into it, there is an increasing need for full appreciation of the engineering design of pipelines. Additionally, many staff in the pipeline industry have not received basic pipeline engineering training, and some staff are only exposed to specialized areas. This course is a formal introduction to pipeline engineering.

He is well-known internationally as a trainer, and regularly presents courses in North and South America, West and East Europe, the Middle East, and Far East.
Dr Roger King has over 30 years experience of corrosion in the oil and gas, civil, and nuclear industries. He has specialist knowledge of sweet and sour corrosion and its prevention by chemical inhibition, monitoring of corrosion, microbiological corrosion and the design of efficient cathodic protection systems for flowlines, structures and seabed installations. He has been an independent consultant since September 1989, prior to which he was a founder member of the Corrosion and Protection Centre Industrial Service (CAPCIS) at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST).
Tom Miesner is president of Miesner, LLC, a consulting company focused on improving the safety, supply reliability, and efficiency of the pipeline industry.
