Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) caused by sulfate-reducing bacteria has been found to be a serious threat to pipeline integrity, safety, and reliability. Numerous pipeline failures have been attributed to sustained, localized pitting corrosion. Bacterial colonies that can form in some pipelines will produce combinations of products that pit the metal.

| Objectives |
| |
Preventing, detecting, and mitigating this type of pitting is often difficult and requires monitoring of the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the pipeline. This course will address these issues in detail, with particular emphasis on prediction and monitoring, and testing methods for managing MIC.

|
| Who Should Attend |
| |
* Pipeline engineers, technicians, and service professionals who are involved with the maintenance, inspection, and repair of liquids, gas and products pipelines, storage tanks, and related components
* Project and facility managers concerned with system integrity assessment
* Researchers who want to be aware of the current understanding of MIC in pipelines

More about the Speaker...
|
| |
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).
