Pump Design, Inspection & Performance

Description

This Pump Design, Inspection & Performance Testing Course is designed to provide professionals with the technical knowledge and practical skills required to work confidently with pump systems in oil & gas, petrochemical, and industrial environments. The course covers essential topics such as pump fundamentals, inspection protocols, material selection, mechanical running tests, and performance testing in accordance with internationally recognized standards like API 610, ISO 9906, and HI 40.6.

Through structured modules and live sessions, participants will gain hands-on experience in visual and mechanical inspections, interpreting test data, and generating compliant inspection reports. Special focus is placed on understanding NDT methods, QC in manufacturing, and vibration measurement techniques during mechanical running tests.
