This training course is suitable for a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:

• Engineering Asset Management & Asset Integrity Management personnel
• Technical Safety personnel
• Engineers involved in maintenance and modification projects
• Inspection and maintenance analysis and planning personnel
• Project managers and project engineers
• Technical discipline responsible personnel
• Reliability engineers & inspectors
• Maintenance engineers, supervisors & planners
• Team Leaders/Managers who are responsible for physical asset reliability and integrity

An Asset Integrity Management (AIM) program provides a backbone and incorporates design, maintenance, inspection, process, operations, and management concepts, making optimal return on investments. This highly informative 10-day training course initiates with the concept of Asset Management in the offshore and onshore industry (ISO 55000). It also aims to equip delegates with skills to commission, appraise, review and apply risk-based approach so that organisations can improve the reliability of the assets, reduce maintenance costs and achieve higher levels of safety and environmental integrity over the life cycle of their systems.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Manage assets in the petroleum industry in a sustainable and safe manner
• Assess & control Asset Integrity of operational assets in production & process systems
• Perform integrity management on the topside and subsea systems
• Realize overall asset process in a system engineering perspective
• Use of adaptive technologies and techniques in engineering projects
• Choose systems for reliability and risk improvement
• Identify functions and appropriate performance standards
• Anticipate the failed states, failure modes and damage mechanisms of a system
• Apply maintenance tactics to reduce risk and improve reliability
• Apply a team-based approach to implement risk and reliability improvement

The training course is presented with the support of industrial case studies to deliver the main concepts. Apart from that basic theory, concepts and related standards/regulations/guidelines are explained briefly to point out the AIM related applications in the real life projects. Power point presentations, group discussions, and sharing of project experiences are formally harmonized during the sessions.

This comprehensive training course consists of two modules which can be booked as a 10-Day Training event, or as individual, 5-Day training courses.
