Overview

Pressure Vessels has always been an integral part of petroleum, petrochemical and process plants, that operates at a wide range of temperatures and pressures. To ensure its safe operation, its design, operation, and maintenance is strictly regulated through industry codes and standards. The effective maintenance of these pressure vessels is critical not only to ensure uninterrupted plant operation but also to prevent any catastrophic damage to life and property as well.

The areas of Inspection, Defect Assessment and Repair, forms the backbone of pressure vessel maintenance.  Hence it requires a high level of execution competency to realize the benefits of minimizing downtime and extending the operating life of this equipment for the plants. This is where experience and expertise needs to be constantly updated, and that is exactly what this master- class aims to deliver.
