Integrity Management and Inspection Seminar - a smash hit in Libya

Connect, no.160, May/June 2009, p.7

Early in April 2009 TWI hosted a very successful event in Ras Lanuf at the premises of Ras Lanuf Oil and Gas Processing Company.

Over 30 attendees gathered to hear presentations, and witness demonstrations of the latest asset management procedures. These included inspection and assessment tools and techniques designed to help plant owners to optimise theiroperations, and maximise their plant availability.

The main topics of the seminar covered overviews of risk based inspection and fitness-for-service assessment techniques along with advanced non-destructive testing. Delegates were given a practical demonstration of TeletestTM, TWI's long range ultrasonic inspection system.

Plans are being made to hold a similar seminar in Tripoli later in 2009 and anyone interested in attending or contributing, is invited to contact TWI on aim@twi.co.uk.
