Petrochemical & Manufacturing Plants
Keep the Plant Running — and Keep It Compliant
Integrity, inspection and reliability training for petrochemical and manufacturing plants where one unplanned shutdown costs more than an entire year of training.
The Problem
Challenges we hear from this sector
These are the issues raised most often by engineering managers and plant leadership before a programme is scoped.
Corrosion under insulation and dead-leg failures found only after a leak
Ageing static equipment approaching or past original design life
Turnaround scope growth and schedule overrun
Contractor quality variation on repair and modification work
Pressure to extend inspection intervals without increasing risk
Training Solutions
How ProTrain addresses them
Each solution area can be delivered as a public programme or customised in-house using your own equipment, drawings and failure history.
Static equipment integrity
API 510 and API 570 based inspection planning, corrosion rate analysis and remaining life calculation.
Process piping engineering
ASME B31.3 design and brownfield modification practice, including tie-ins and temporary repairs.
Contractor quality control
Welding and QA/QC competency so your team can hold contractors to the specification.
Reliability improvement
RCM and RCFA workshops built on your own failure and downtime history.
Recommended Courses
Programmes most requested by this sector
All programmes are HRD Corp claimable and carry CPD hours where applicable.
API 570 Piping Inspection & Corrosion Management
In-service piping inspection: CML strategy, corrosion rates, remaining life, and repair or replace decisions for ageing systems.
3 days (21 contact hours)View course outlineASME B31.3 Process Piping — Design, Stress & Support Practice
Design and verification of process piping systems, from wall thickness and material selection to flexibility, supports and vibration troubleshooting.
3 days (21 contact hours)View course outlineAPI 510 Pressure Vessel Inspection & Integrity Management
Inspection planning, corrosion rate calculation, remaining life and repair decisions for in-service pressure vessels, taught with real thickness survey data.
3 days (21 contact hours)View course outlineNon-Destructive Testing (NDT) Methods, Interpretation & Reporting
A three-day, hands-on non-destructive testing programme covering the five core NDT methods — visual, penetrant, magnetic particle, radiographic and ultrasonic testing — with heavy emphasis on interpreting real indications, radiographs and reports rather than memorising theory.

Available as public programmes or customised in-house delivery. Open any topic for the full outline, learning outcomes, practical exercises and enquiry options.
Business Outcomes
What clients measure after training
- Lower unplanned downtime from integrity failures
- Inspection programmes that satisfy DOSH and internal audit
- Better contractor work quality at the first attempt
- Evidence-based decisions on repair, replace or re-rate
Outcome-linked training design
Before delivery we agree the operational metric the programme should influence — repair rate, downtime hours, inspection backlog, rework cost. Post-training, participants submit an action plan tied to that metric so results are visible to management.

Who will deliver your programme
Ir. Hafiz Rahman
Lead Trainer — Pressure Equipment & ASME Codes
22 years industry experience
Hafiz has spent his career between the design office and the plant floor — sizing shells and heads in the morning, walking down repairs with an inspector in the afternoon. He teaches code work the way it is actually used: calculation sheets, nameplate data, and repair decisions that must survive an audit.
- ASME Section VIII Div. 1 Design
- API 510 Pressure Vessel Inspector
- BEM Registered Professional Engineer
Ir. Lim Chee Keong
Senior Trainer — Piping, Flow Assurance & API Standards
20 years industry experience
Chee Keong specialises in the messy middle of brownfield work — where drawings are outdated, the line is live, and the shutdown window is already booked. He teaches decision-making, not just clause numbers.
- API 570 Piping Inspector
- ASME B31.3 Process Piping Practitioner
- Caesar II Stress Analysis
