TWI Azerbaijan
and KBR Develop Local Skills and Knowledge
TWI Azerbaijan and KBR has established the
mutual cooperation on training and developing
local engineers' technical skills/knowledge
On February 13-14, 2020, TWI Azerbaijan successfully
held training for the engineering staff
of SOCAR - KBR as an extension of
the positive cooperation between the two
companies.
The purpose of the training was to improve
the professionalism of young employees and
to familiarise experienced engineers with
technical innovations. TWI Azerbaijan is
proud to support anyone who wants to achieve
professional development.
The training proved a success with the engineering
personnel from SOCAR - KBR who attended
the free event. The event provided an 'Introduction
to Construction Codes' as well as
information on 'Manufacturing Imperfections
and Inspection Methods' and details
of the current challenges faced by industry.
The training was conducted for two days with
two sessions. On the first day of training,
participants were given presentations and
lectures on NDT methods, their applications,
and construction codes (ASME SEC VIII, ASME
B3).
On the second day, the topics included welding
defects and prevention methods, a damage
mechanism overview based on API 571, and
in-service inspection codes and their applications
(API 510,653,570). Lectures presented in
practical videos were greeted with interest
by the participants.
There was also an opportunity for attendees
to ask their own questions related to plant
integrity, ASME Section VIII, API 570, materials
inspection and so forth. Our lecturer, Hamidreza
Saadat, provided immediate answers and comments
to the questions related to inspection,
damage mechanism and corrosion.
According to the survey results, attendee
feedback about the training was very positive.
This feedback helsp us to improve our service
quality and motivate us to organise more
events for the future.
