Authoring guide

Edit the [FILL: ...] values in this page's front matter. Add topics by copying an item under params.training.topics; add subtopics by copying an item under that topic's subtopics. Use unique lowercase IDs with hyphens.

Set params.moduleId to a unique ID beginning with params.topicId. Add it to the parent course's moduleList; also add it to videoModuleList and set params.hasVideo: true if it has a video. Set a module weight for its order and use training.previous_url / training.next_url (for example, ../module-2/) to connect sibling modules.

Operational Scenario

[FILL: Conflicting monitoring results]

[FILL: Present a crude corrosivity monitoring case where methods or readings disagree. Ask learners how to validate the evidence and choose an inspection response.]

Topics and Subtopics

Select a topic to explore its main ideas, practical considerations, and subtopics.

Inspection and monitoring

Monitoring and inspection methods

[FILL: Explain the methods used to detect or track crude corrosivity damage.]

Key point: [FILL: State how to select a method for the damage mechanism and location.]

Method strengths

  • [FILL: Describe what UT, ER probes, coupons, or other methods can reveal.]
  • [FILL: Explain where each method is most useful.]

Method limitations

  • [FILL: Describe coverage, accuracy, response-time, or access limitations.]
  • [FILL: Explain why different methods may not produce directly comparable results.]

Subtopics

Thickness measurements and trending
[FILL: Explain the selected UT or thickness-monitoring approach and how readings are trended.]
Corrosion probes, coupons, and sampling
[FILL: Explain how probes, coupons, or laboratory sampling support the assessment.]

Interactive Challenge

Interactive diagnostic case study

[FILL: Monitoring and inspection case]

[FILL: Case status]

[FILL: Present an operating trend and conflicting inspection or monitoring results. Ask learners to choose validation and follow-up steps.]

[FILL: Monitoring and inspection trend comparison]

Diagnostic clues

Check measurement quality
[FILL: Add a clue about location, calibration, repeatability, or coverage.]
Compare with process history
[FILL: Add a clue about operating changes or the expected damage mechanism.]
Reveal the explanation

[FILL: Monitoring data interpretation]

[FILL: Explain the evidence and reasoning.]

Recommended action: [FILL: Recommended action or reference]
