API103 -Piping Code (ASME B 31.3) and Fitness For Service
Assessment (API 579) for Plant Piping (23 - 27 February 2014,
Dubai)
Course Description
This course is designed to give the participants a thor-ough
understanding of Process Piping Code, ASME B 31.3. and its
practical use as illustrated with numerous case studies.
Fitness-For-Service (FFS) API 579 assess-ments are quantitative
engineering evaluations that are performed to demonstrate the
structural integrity of an in-service piping that may contain a
flaw or damage. The guide-lines provided in this methodology can be
used to make run-repair-replace decisions to help ensure that
piping containing flaws can continue to operate safely.
The course offers detailed insight of ASME B 31.3 code
pertaining to design, manufacture and inspection of the Piping
systems typically used in Petroleum Industries, Re-fineries,
Petrochemical plants etc. It presents a thorough understanding of
how API 579 methods can be applied for assessing the present
structural integrity of the piping component, and deciding its
fitness for continued service as well as the projected remaining
life. It also suggests remedial measures for mitigation of damage
and thus ex-tend the life of the equipment .This course covers
Level I assessments for the damage mechanisms encountered in the
Piping Systems

To familiarize participants with the main concepts, of the B
31.3 code. To provide participants step-by step approach in use of
B 31.3 code for Design, fabrication, installation, in-spection and
testing. How to conduct NDT of piping and the acceptance
Cri-teria.How to Conduct and certify pressure testing of Piping
Systems. To understand the Degradation Mechanisms occurring in
Pressure Piping,To recognize causes of degradation in-service, How
to apply integrity analysis techniques to make run-or-repair
decisions.Calculate Remaining Life of Piping System.Remediation
methods for degraded Piping. Step-by-step methodology for
Fitness-for-service assessment for Brittle fracture, General metal
loss, Crack-like flaws, Creep Damage

The course is intended for engineers, maintenance per-sons and
inspectors responsible for the design, integrity, maintenance and
repair of pipelines and piping systems including Inspection
engineers, maintenance engineers supervisors and managers involved
in trouble shooting of plant operationsThe Inspection as well as
the asset in-tegrity engineers, who work in the Chemical plants,
Pe-troleum Refineries, Oil and gas industry, will find it useful to
broaden and update their knowledge.They will benefit from the
practical approaches and case studies present-ed in this
course.

has about 15 years hands on experience in Design and integrity
assessment of Piping Systems, Pressure Vessels, Reactors and
Storage tanks. He is well conversant with the major industry codes
& standards such as ASME B 31.1, B31.3 , B31.4 and B31.8, ASME
Sec VIII, BS-5500, TEMA, API -650, API 579, API 510, API570 and API
653, etc. Major projects closely associated with, in his
pro-fessional career so far are, Qatar Chemicals, Shell
Corporation, Castrol India, Reliance Petrochemicals, Indian Oil
Corporation, Cabot Carbon, Vivergo Bio fu-els UK, etc. He is
conversant with reliability studies pertaining plant equipments
& systems using API 579 Assessment methods for Pressure
Vessels, Piping and Storage tanks. He had participated in failure
investigations and proposing the remedial measures.His proficiency
in Piping , Tanks and pressure vessel codes enables him to trace
the similarities and differ-ences of these codes.is also actively
involved as Instructor for programs on the subjects of ASME/ API
codes, Integrity as-sessment, Fitness for service etc.
Along with his career in engineering and design depart-ment in a
multinational company at a very senior post for the last 15 years,
he is also visiting faculty to two well known Engineering Colleges
in India for their Post-Graduate Courses in Piping Design and
Engineering.
Apart from being visiting faculty, he has also conducted
Training Courses (ASME B 31.3 Piping Codes, ASME Sec. VIII, API 579
) in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain and UAE for engineers from
companies like Saudi Aramco , SABIC group of Companies, Qatar
Petroleum, ADNOC, BAPCO, Gulf Petrochemicals, PETRONAS etc. He has
also conducted 8 international Training courses in API 579-Fitness
