RathGibson to support
China’s infrastructure growth
RathGibson, a manufacturer of welded, welded and drawn,
and seamless stainless steel, nickel, and titanium tubing, has
received orders for two infrastructure projects in China.
The first project involves three major fabricators in China
who are using many tons of RathGibson’s C-276 tubes in
the manufacture of multiple heat exchanger units. The end
user, Lunan Fertilizer Company, Ltd, will be utilising the heat
exchangers for processing in their new Acetic Anhydride
project.
For the second project in China, RathGibson will be supplying
large amounts of titanium tubing for the construction of a power
plant for the Huaneng Group. “RathGibson was selected by
fabricator Harbin Turbine because of our commitment to
quality and service,” said Peter Wang, director, business
development, Greater China.

Learning the fundamentals
of oil and gas knoweldge
IBC, known for its energy conferences, also provides high
quality training, delivered through a variety of formats to
assist individuals and organisations in achieving their goals
by developing skills, knowledge and performance.
The organisation has recently expanded its courses to
include a Fundamentals of Oil & Gas distance learning
product. Distance learning allows studying at a time and pace
to suit the student, without incurring the costs of travel and
time out from busy schedules.
Fundamentals of Oil & Gas, which commences 10 February
2010, aims to provide an understanding of the industry from
upstream to downstream and beyond. Being such a vast
and complex industry, it can be difficult to gain a global
understanding of its entirety, especially when starting out, or
when your job is focused on just one part of the process.
Delivered over 12 weeks in six modules, the course is a path
to a rounded understanding of this dynamic sector, and will
develop a thorough, accurate and up-to-date knowledge of
oil and gas fundamentals. The course programme consists
of: Introducing oil and gas; Finding oil and gas; Extracting
and processing oil and gas; Oil refining and gas treatments;
Selling oil and gas; and Managing oil and gas.
Visitors to the IBC website can download a course brochure,
and can enrol on the course online.
