AMPP Direct Assessment

AMPP Direct Assessment took place Jul 20–23, 2026 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It was a Course event for corrosion and materials science professionals in the Asia region. The Direct Assessment (DA) course covers internal, external, and stress-corrosion cracking direct assessment, including pre- and post-assessment, quality assurance, data analysis and integration, and corrosion mitigation activities. Aimed at pipeline integrity and maintenance managers, it explains DA's role within overall integrity programs, compares DA with other methods, and trains participants to apply the four DA phases (pre-assessment, indirect inspection, direct examination, post-assessment) across Direct External Corrosion Assessment, Direct Internal Corrosion Assessment, Direct Stress Corrosion Cracking Assessment, and confirmatory DA to establish corrosion rates and support integrity decisions.
