Our work in evaluating NORM occurrence in oil field equipment and tubing has led to the development of methods for measuring radium concentrations in materials and equipment in the field. RAE has prepared, performed and reviewed Final Status Surveys for a wide range of clients, including private industry, the Department of Energy and Department of Defense. The class includes formal lectures coupled with case studies to provide hands on learning and application of discussed materials. As developed and routinely taught, the course is comprehensive and uses case studies that are relevant to a wide range of attendees background and needs. These training sessions are normally on an open registration basis.
Sponsors can elect to hold dedicated training, open only to their students.
For dedicated training, RAE will tailor the course and case studies to closely address the sponsor's specific situations or sites. Particular qualifications of individual instructors include expertise in statistics and statistical analysis, radiological instrumentation, and nuclear quality assurance.
