Pipe Vibration Fatigue

Home » Courses » Pipe Vibration Fatigue

Duration: 2 days

Dynamics and vibration affect the performance and service life of oil and gas equipment, including oil rigs, vibrating screens, wellhead blowout preventers, oil and gas pipelines, drill bits, offshore platforms, and submarine pipelines. Vibration can cause fatigue failure and excessive noise in structures.

Statistics suggest that 21% of piping failures are due to fatigue and vibration. As a result, this phenomenon requires attention even at the design stage.

Participant Profile

Prerequisites

Sessions

• On request
• 20 people per session

Evaluation – Award

• Questionnaire in the form of a quiz
• Certificate of achievement

Objectives

  • Equip participants with knowledge & skills in piping vibration
