A practical seminar centered on preventing corrosion, extending service life, and enhancing the long-term performance of metal structures through effective protection strategies, maintenance, and design considerations. It is perfect for engineers, architects, and construction professionals.

Gathers anti-corrosive coatings experts to discuss market trends and new products and application technologies for prevention and maintenance of structures, equipment and process plants.

This comprehensive conference addresses asset management, maintenance, and operational excellence across six core themes. Key topics include strategic asset lifecycle management, data-driven maintenance and reliability optimization, Industry 4.0 digital transformation with AI and IoT integration, organizational change and leadership, risk management and criticality analysis, and academic research. The event fosters knowledge exchange on modern asset protection, energy efficiency, resilience, and innovation strategies.

This workshop explores vessel and offshore platform revitalization as a strategic alternative to decommissioning, directly addressing corrosion management, structural integrity, and asset life extension. Focusing on Brazil's maritime and oil sectors, it examines how modernization projects reduce costs, enhance efficiency, improve sustainability, and strengthen the national industry, while managing aging infrastructure through advanced corrosion-control and integrity-assessment techniques.

This course is the first step toward Certified Coatings Inspector status and teaches advanced documentation and the execution of destructive and non-destructive inspections of liquid and non-liquid coatings on any substrate. Aimed at basic coatings inspectors seeking certification, it combines lectures, group work, labs, and case studies to build skills in advanced corrosion theory, CP, environmental control, surface preparation, specialized application methods, inspection instruments, concrete and non-liquid coatings, failure modes, maintenance, and health and safety.

This course introduces the fundamentals of corrosion, its economic impact, and the primary forms affecting metals, plastics, and concrete. Participants learn to understand electrochemical mechanisms, predict and identify corrosion problems, and apply laboratory evaluation techniques to select appropriate mitigation strategies.

This meeting offers an opportunity to update knowledge, exchange experience, and address current energy-industry challenges. Its technical program covers steel pipeline coatings for Vaca Muerta, H2S material selection, cathodic protection design, and AMPP training and certification pathways.

The event aims to bring together experts, companies, and institutions to discuss the challenges of corrosion, its impact on the integrity of industrial assets, and its often-overlooked effects on daily life. This FBCC seeks to serve as a platform for knowledge sharing, innovation, and networking, promoting strategic discussions among key industry leaders. In relation to World Corrosion Awareness Day, the event intends to become an annual gathering and set a new national benchmark on the topic.

Integrity of oil and gas facilities across treatment, transportation, refining, and distribution. Topics: risk management, rehabilitation, inspection technologies, design/materials, integrity management, and emerging challenges.

This conference brings together industry leaders, suppliers, and experts to advance Floating Production, Storage and Offloading (FPSO).
