API 571 ICP CORROSION AND MATERIALS CERTIFICATION

API 571 ICP Corrosion and Materials Certification, like the API 580 certification, allows highly specialised inspectors, engineers, and other professionals across the entire petrochemical industry to obtain the API 571 Corrosion and Materials certification to validate their knowledge on damage mechanisms.

API RP 571, 3rd edition (2020), is the latest edition that describes damage mechanisms affecting equipment in the refining and petrochemical industries. A critical first step in managing equipment safety and reliability is identifying and understanding the various damage mechanisms.

Proper identification of damage mechanisms is also required when implementing the API Inspection Codes (API510, API 570, API 653) and in carrying out Risk Based Inspection (RBI) per API 580 and API 581. When performing a fitness-for-service (FFS) assessment using API 579, the damage mechanisms need to be understood and considered when evaluating the remaining life.

The 4-day API 571 classroom course aims to provide the participants with a thorough understanding of the various damage mechanisms in the latest API RP 571-2020 edition.

The 66 damage mechanisms contained within this course are common to a variety of industries, including refining and petrochemicals, pulp and paper, and fossil utilities.
