This NEW training course provides a wide-ranging overview of all aspects of pigging operations.
Courses will be held twice-yearly at the CTDUT facility adjacent to Petrobas' Duque de Caxias refinery, near Rio de Janeiro. The upcoming course dates are 30 August - 3 September 2010.
The course uses the recently-inagurated 14-in, 120-m long, water and nitrogen/air-driven test loop at the site. During the five days, the participants typically perform up to nine different runs of various tools.
The syllabus includes both hands-on exercises using the test loop(s), as well as classroom instruction, and full documentation. The content of the course has been developed jointly by Penspen, PipeWay, and Clarion/Tiratsoo Technical. PipeWay, through its Rio de Janeiro office, has agreed to provide cleaning, geometry, and intelligent tools for use during the course, along with its expert technicians.
