The Radiation Protection Supervisor course is a specialized one-day program aimed at equipping professionals with the knowledge and skills necessary to safely handle equipment containing Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORM) in oil and gas production environments.
Understanding Radiation Protection: The primary goal of radiation protection is to ensure human safety while allowing beneficial activities that may involve radiation exposure. This course highlights the importance of achieving a balance between safety and productivity, enabling professionals to work effectively while adhering to safety standards.
NORM in Oil and Gas Production:
Subsurface reservoirs often contain water, oil, and gas in varying proportions, with formation water frequently containing naturally occurring radioactive materials such as Barium, Strontium, and Radium. During exploration, the injection of water into reservoirs can lead to the formation of NORM or Low Specific Activity (LSA) Scale. This material may deposit in the form of scale, sand, wax, or sludge, posing potential radiation hazards.
Course Content: The program offers a comprehensive introduction to handling oil and gas production equipment that may be contaminated with NORM.
Key topics include:
The Nature and Effects of NORM: Understand the radioactive materials involved and their potential health and environmental impacts.
Monitoring Methods: Learn the techniques for detecting and monitoring the presence of NORM.
Control and Management Techniques: Explore effective strategies for managing and minimizing radiation exposure in the workplace.
