About the course

Learning outcomes
Attendees who successfully complete this course will be able to:
  1. recall the local Safety Code Act laws, pressure equipment safety regulations (PESR), and jurisdiction (ABSA) rules related codes and standards for new construction or in-service repair of ASME VIII-1 pressure vessels;
  2. correctly reference the ASME VIII-1 code paragraph structure;
  3. review listed ASME SA and SB specifications referenced in ASME II Parts A and B  and related and material test reports (MTRs), including multiple marking, to ensure they are acceptable for the material ordered;
  4. investigate, analyze, interpret, articulate, and apply the welding fabrication rules of ASME VIII-1 and apply them to when reviewing qualified welding procedure specifications (WPSs) to ensure they are suitable to weld on ASME VIII-1 pressure vessels;
  5. identify and navigate the basic rules for ASME VIII-1 inspection and examination rules; and
  6. recall the basic rules for ASME VIII-1 pressure testing rules for hydrostatic and pneumatic tests.
Who should attend

Engineers, inspectors, maintenance and QA personnel, NDE technicians, experienced tradespeople, who work for owner-user companies, EPCs, inspection companies, fabricators, maintenance service and repair companies, and inspection companies from refineries, upgrader plants, oil sands plants, SAGD plants, petrochemical plants, power plants, gas/oil pipeline companies, pulp mills, repair and maintenance shops, equipment manufacturers, third party inspection and NDE companies, and all supporting industries.
