Training for this program is provided in an online on demand format for convenience and accessibility.

A live exam preparation lecture is offered at various locations and dates throughout the year. These are scheduled for the morning before an afternoon exam session.

This training course is essential for anyone involved in the inspection of construction or modification of energy transportation facility projects in the Canadian Energy Pipeline sector.

Whether your responsibilities include project management, design management, facility inspection, or integrity, this training provides a comprehensive knowledge base for the mandatory application of CSA Z662 aspects of pipeline facility construction. Training on responsibilities with respect to civil, pressure, and electrical requirements is also covered.

Detailed instruction on the application of the sections 6 thru 10 is supplemented with instruction on elements of facilities falling under non-pipeline authorities such as pressure vessel safety and electrical safety.

The training provides concept identification and explanations with direct reference to Regulatory Mandates in addition to CAPP and API recommendations.

API recommendations that do not meet Canadian requirements are clearly identified to ensure participants are able to effectively write the qualification examination.

The CER onshore pipeline regulation elements are reviewed with reference to some Provincial statutes, providing a clear understanding for the application of requirements.

Details on monitoring and recording competency verification, task execution, permitting, and project performance are provided.

This course provides the necessary background and prerequisite to enable participants to write the Canadian 1184 Pipeline Facility Construction Qualification exam. Regulatory and Code examples used in the training are based on the presentation location. This training is also suitable for inspectors who already carry a foreign 1184 credential but require evidence of training to the CSA Z662:23 to meet regulatory obligations.

This Master Class is available with an on demand format. An optional instructor led pre-exam refresh session may be available prior to writing your exam, however is not a requirement.

All courses require access to a suitable electronic device (computer/laptop/tablet) with an internet connection for access to the training dashboard, video modules, and instructor led sessions.

Students will establish a unique login credential for accessing the Training Dashboard during the registration process.

• Link to obtain a copy of the CSA SPE 225.2 for Pipeline Facilities Integrity Management

This targeted training provides critical instruction on the minimum mandatory management processes required for the procurement of materials and construction of Oil and Gas Pipeline Facilities in Canada.

The course briefly reviews the management process mandated by section 3 and quickly moves into the technical requirements for the construction of pipeline facilities detailed in the CSA Z662:23.

This training includes concepts related to code breaks, civil engineering aspects, B51 pressure vessel and process piping, and electrical. Testing requirements are also covered.

This training provides participants with an overview of the CSA Z662:23 construction requirements.

Upon completion participants will:

• Gain a solid understanding of the minimum requirements to provide oversight of the facility construction processes
• Understand the prescriptive requirements for construction as part of the mandatory Safety and Loss Management System
• Understand the application of competency assessment for both staff and contractors
• Understand the minimum documentation and verification requirements for a facility construction projects
• Understand the minimum record keeping requirements for compliant construction projects
• Understand the testing requirements mandated for Canadian facilities and how they differ from other countries such as the US and Europe
• Understand the application of the Canadian Electric Code to Oil and Gas Facilities in Canada and the differences in from other countries
• Understand the application of other codes of construction such as the ASME B31.3 under the Canadian system.

Participants will receive a Course Completion Certificate and CEU credits.

This Master Class covers the following:

• Pipeline facility scopes under the CSA Z662:23 and Canadian regulatory requirements
• Application limits of the API 1184 in Canadian jurisdictions
• CSA B51 requirements respecting pressure vessels and pressure piping
• Canadian Electrical Code framework and regulatory requirements
• Scope of pipeline facilities under the CSA Z662:23
• Minimum documentation requirements
• Structural support and building code mandates for piping, equipment, and enclosures
• Facility welding requirements and demarcations between Z662 cl. 7 and ASME part IX
• Canadian facility testing requirements
• Commissioning and turnover packages

In order to execute compliant pipeline construction facility projects in the Canadian energy transportation sector, the CSA Z662:23 requires personnel to be trained and qualified for their assigned roles and responsibilities.

This course content is designed to provide a detailed understanding of the requirements for those involved in any aspect of pipeline facility construction and oversight.

This Master Class is part of the IETCC Certificate of Personnel Competence program.

The fee for this course includes all program requirements including the API 1184 Pipeline Facility Inspector endorsement exam. At the conclusion of your training, you will be issued a course completion verification.

This course includes a code qualification exam registration. Successful writers will receive a confirmation of qualification issued by the CPA Council, providing evidence of code and standard comprehension at standardized levels recognized in the Canadian Oil and Gas sector.

Following course registration, you will be contacted by a NASA Corp Canada representative to assist in choosing and scheduling your chosen code qualification challenge exam.
