Course Content
This training is to equip participants with knowledge and skills related to the inspection and management of insulation systems, especially in industrial settings.
The course typically includes a combination of theoretical instruction, practical demonstrations, and hands-on training to ensure participants are well-prepared for fieldwork.
Course Objectives
- Understanding Insulation Types and Materials:
  – Gain an in-depth understanding of different insulation materials, their properties, and applications.
- Knowledge of Insulation Systems:
  – Learn about the various insulation systems used in industries like oil and gas, petrochemicals, and power plants.
- Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) Awareness:
  – Understand the causes, detection methods, and prevention techniques for Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), a major issue in insulated piping and equipment.
- Inspection Techniques:
  – Master different inspection techniques to assess the condition of insulation systems and detect issues such as thermal leaks or mechanical damage.
- Safety and Standards Compliance:
  – Learn the relevant safety procedures and industry standards (such as NACE/AMPP standards) for insulation inspection and handling.
- Documentation and Reporting:
  – Understand how to properly document inspection findings and write reports that comply with industry guidelines.
Course Contents
- Introduction to Insulation:
  – Overview of insulation and its role in industrial applications (e.g., energy conservation, process control).
- Types of Insulation Materials:
  – Detailed discussion on various insulation materials like fiberglass, calcium silicate, mineral wool, aerogels, and more.
- Insulation System Design:
  – Learn about how insulation systems are designed, including considerations for thermal performance, mechanical protection, and environmental factors.
- Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI):
  – In-depth examination of CUI, how it occurs, the conditions that promote it, and how to inspect for it without removing insulation.
- Inspection Methods and Tools:
  – Non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques such as infrared thermography, radiography, and ultrasonic testing.
  – Hands-on training with common inspection tools used in insulation inspection.
- Field Inspection Procedures:
  – Step-by-step guidance on how to inspect insulation systems in real-world industrial environments, including common challenges faced during inspections.
- Thermal Performance Testing:
  – Methods to evaluate the thermal efficiency of insulation and detect areas of heat loss.
- Standards and Best Practices:
  – Review of relevant industry standards (e.g., ASTM, NACE, API) and best practices for insulation systems and inspections.
- Report Writing and Documentation:
  – How to accurately document inspection results and create comprehensive reports.
- Health and Safety Protocols:
   – Safety measures to follow when handling insulation materials, especially hazardous ones (e.g., asbestos).
