Course #1 Practical Oilfield Metallurgy and Corrosion

1/30/08 to 3/19/08
Wednesday nights at Rice University,
7PM-9PM Mechanical Laboratory Room 251

Who Should Enroll:   Engineers, managers and technicians responsible for materials selection and failure analysis in the petroleum industry. This is an ideal first course for anyone who needs a working understanding of how metallurgy is specifically applied to the area of petroleum production. In addition many practicing metallurgists and materials engineers will find many principles and often used references that are used in day to day decision making on materials.

Course #2 Metallurgy of Welding and Joining

1/31/20/08 to 3/20/08
Thursday nights at Rice University, 7PM-9PM
 Mechanical Laboratory Room 251

1/31	Survey of Joining Processes
2/7	Welding Design Weld Metal Soundness
2/14	Arc Welding Carbon Steels Arc Welding Low and Medium Alloy Steels
2/21	High Alloy Steel Fundamentals High Alloy Steel Techniques
2/28	Copper and its Alloys Arc Welding Aluminum, Magnesium, Titanium, and Nickel
3/6	Inspection of Weldments Resistance Welding Fundamentals
3/13	Resistance Welding Practice Electron Beam Welding
3/20	Fusion Welding of Steel Hard Facing

Who Should Enroll:  Welders, welding inspectors, engineers, managers, technicians, metallurgists, sales or purchasing personnel. Welding metallurgy is a complex subject because it requires knowledge of materials, welding processes, design, and inspection. Metallurgy of Welding and Joining provides an excellent review of welding processes, welding of materials ranging from carbon steel to specialized alloys, guidelines for designing weldments to facilitate welding, and testing and inspecting welds to meet performance requirements.
