Acoustic and Flow Induced Vibration Course
Introduction:
Failures of piping systems in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries can lead to damage of assets, personal injury and loss of life. Piping failure can be caused by excessive vibration, in the form of high levels of acoustic energy (AIV), or by flow turbulence (FIV) created by shear forces within the piping system.
Course Objectives:
- Enable participants to be able to undertake an AIV and FIV assessment following good industry practice.
- Allow participants to gain an understanding of the prediction, screening, and assessment procedures.
- Provide participants with oversight of design measures that can be implemented in order to minimize the risk of induced vibration.
- Provide worked examples of the application of the assessment methodologies during the design phase of a project.
Who Should Attend?
The course is aimed at professionals who have involvement in the design of oil and gas assets, who want to gain a comprehensive understanding of how AIV and FIV assessments are carried out and gain some practical experience in undertaking such studies. The course is primarily aimed at Project Managers, Process Engineers, and Mechanical Engineers.
Course Outlines:

- AIV Assessment and Mitigation
- AIV ‘Real Word’ Case Study Examples
- FIV Assessment and Mitigation
