Tube Rolling and Retubing (4th – 8th August 2025)

A Single Failed Tube Can Trigger an Unplanned Shutdown. Master the Precision Skills to Ensure Heat Exchanger Integrity and Maximize Uptime.

In critical Chevron operations like gas dehydration and crude processing, the integrity of your heat exchangers is non-negotiable. A leaking tube-to-tubesheet joint is a direct threat to safety, environmental compliance, and production. To combat this, your team needs more than basic mechanical skills—they need certified, best-practice expertise in the full cycle of tube maintenance.

This intensive 5-day training program is designed to deliver that expertise. Fully aligned with Chevron’s Mechanical Integrity Standards, API 660, and TEMA, this course equips technicians, inspectors, and engineers with the complete skill set for tube removal, installation, rolling, and testing. Through realistic hands-on simulations and fault diagnosis drills, participants will master the precision and safety required to execute this critical work during planned turnarounds and emergency situations.

In This Course, You Will Master How To:

• Safely operate hydraulic, mechanical, and pneumatic tube tools, including pullers, expanders, and cutters.

• Execute precise tube rolling to the correct expansion ratio, avoiding common faults like under-rolling and over-rolling.

• Perform critical QA/QC checks, including bubble and hydrostatic leak tests, to validate joint integrity.

• Diagnose the root causes of tube failure, including corrosion, erosion, and vibration.

• Complete all required Chevron documentation, including Tube Expansion Procedures (TEPs) and Inspection Test Plans (ITPs).

• Adhere strictly to Chevron’s HSE policies for confined space entry and high-risk mechanical work.
