This course, organised by Fleming Events, is endorsed by the Institute of Corrosion and will include an understanding of the key characteristics of CUI, examples of critical CUI failures, elements of reliable CUI management, design considerations (insulation systems and coatings), and direct and indirect detection and monitoring technology. The experienced trainers, Dr Clare Watt (Kaefer Isoliertechnik GmbH) and Dr Steve Peterson (Arbeadie Consultants Ltd) will also discuss the published guidance, and the latest innovation status and projects. There will also be interactive case study sessions.
Further details can be found on the ICorr website and at www.fleming.events.
The 14th OEEC will take place at Amsterdam RAI on Tuesday 26 and Wednesday 27 October 2021. There will be a physical exhibition and content programme combined with an online event.
Bookings are now been taken for stands and there are also networking opportunities. For more information, go to https://www.offshore-energy.biz/offshore-energy-2021/
Due to ongoing global health concerns and travel restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, the local organising committee of EUROCORR 2021, in consultation with the EFC were compelled to cancel the physical EUROCORR 2021 congress scheduled for September in Budapest in order to protect attendees, staff, and the EFC community.
Nevertheless, EFC wishes to continue the exchange of scientific results and networking within the international corrosion community, and as such EUROCORR 2021 will be transformed into a virtual event.
The new registration fees and revised information for the virtual congress will be published soon on the EUROCORR 2021 website.
The Engineering Council has updated its Guidance on Sustainability, which is now available on its website.
The Guidance is reviewed periodically, and this edition includes the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, clarifies its definition of sustainable development, and emphasises the importance of engineers taking a proactive role. It also highlights the importance of designing-in sustainability from the start, emphasises the inter-connectedness of environmental challenges and solutions, the role of regeneration and restoration, and consideration of the whole life cycle – including safe disposal.
According to Alasdair Coates CEng FICE MCIHT CMIOSH, CEO of the Engineering Council, Sustainable development is an increasingly important issue for society and the engineering profession works to meet the challenge of the climate emergency. Engineers and technicians have a key leadership and influencing role in working towards sustainability, increasingly as part of multi-disciplinary teams that include non-engineers, and through work that crosses national boundaries.
This updated Guidance on Sustainability supports individual engineers in achieving sustainable development through engineering, as well as helping professionally registered engineers – Chartered Engineers, Incorporated Engineers and Engineering Technicians – to meet their professional obligations.”
This Guidance sets out six principles to guide engineering professionals in integrating understanding of the environment and sustainability into all aspects of their work:
1. Contribute to building a sustainable society, present and future
2. Apply professional and responsible judgement and take a leadership role on sustainability
3. Do more than just comply with legislation and codes: be prepared to challenge the status quo
4. Use resources efficiently and effectively
5. Seek multiple views to solve sustainability challenges
6. Manage risk to minimise adverse impact and maximise benefit to people and the environment
The full Guidance on Sustainability leaflet, along with a convenient wallet card of the six principles, can be downloaded free from, www.engc.org.uk/sustainability.
