Detail Engineering of
Piping Systems
PD410
Detail engineering in piping projects consists of the engineering,
design, detail and layout of process and utility equipment, piping and
instrumentation. This three-day course provides participants with
the background required to design, engineer and complete piping
assignments.
This course should be of interest to people employed in any area that
piping is present (Refinery, Chemical, Power, Pulp and Paper, Utility, etc.) perspective.
The course introduces engineers, designers and construction personnel
to the various procedures involved in the development and engineering
of Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID s), Equipment Plot Plans,
Piping Arrangements, and Fabrication Drawings.
Traditionally, there has been little formal training in this area and design ILI technologies. This course reviews the defect types and ILI
decisions often have to be made based on practical considerations
without formulae or code reinforcement. Completing piping drawings
take up the majority of man-hours in the design of a process plant.
Each participant will receive a copy of the book Detail Engineering and
Layout of Piping Systems, by Bob Wilson.
You Will Learn To
• Describe pipe sizing
• Explain pressure drop calculations
• Describe the process of pump and equipment sizing and selection
• Describe the preparation of equipment specifications and drawings
• Identify piping specifications
• Explain the process of instrumentation and process control
• Describe the process of piping component familiarization, including
valves and fittings, piping hangers and supports
Who Should A end
Piping engineering and design personnel; engineers, designers, CAD
operators and draftspersons in the piping field; practicing engineers
and designers who may have experience in related disciplines and
wish to expand their knowledge of the piping area; piping fabricators,
contractors and suppliers wishing to understand the relationship of
manufacture and fabrication to the design, layout and construction of
piping systems
Special Requirements
A series of workshops where attendees have an opportunity to produce
a P&ID and a number of Piping Isometrics c/w Bill of Material are part of
this course. As a result, attendees are required to bring the following
equipment:
• Scale: 3/8” = 1 ft scale
• Circle template
• Calculator
• Drafting pencil and eraser

Inline Inspections
for Pipelines
PD706 PI PI N G A N D PI PE LI N E S Public Courses
From simple beginnings, the use of in-line inspection (ILI) technologies
in the pipeline industry has grown significantly during the last two
decades. Today, more than ever, there is an understanding between
industry and regulators that ILI is a go-to methodology for maintaining
pipeline integrity. ILI has given rise to three interested parties, namely
regulators, pipeline operators and ILI vendors. This course provides
an overview of how these three stakeholders interact from a technical
ILI is categorized by technology. Various technologies are used,
specifically, for finding different defect types. It is the different defect
types that lead to pipeline failures that drive the ILI technologies. An
understanding of these defect types is the precursor to understanding
technologies that support the detection and sizing of the various
defect types.
ILI Standards exist to assist both pipeline operators and regulators
to implement ILI. The course reviews these Standards and other
documentation to assist attendees in their role in the implementation
of the ILI process.
Finally, the course addresses how to deal with discrepancies between
reported and actual defects and anomalies. After taking the course,
attendees should understand how and why inspection technologies
are selected and used in typical applications. After completing this
course, attendees will grasp the fact that the responsibility for “getting
it right” (i.e., a pipeline has good integrity) rests with the pipeline
operator.
You Will Learn To
• Identify pipeline defect types that cause failure
• Explain why particular ILI technologies should be used for specific
defect types
• Explain why or why not ILI is applicable to various defect types
• Identify ILI performance specifications
• Analyze Industry Standards and other documentation on ILI
• Describe whether an ILI was either effective or ineffective
• Explain how to generate confidence in the integrity of a pipeline
using ILI
Who Should A end
Pipeline integrity engineers with limited exposure to in-line inspection
and other integrity engineers/supervisors/managers interested in
the relative strengths and weaknesses of using ILI technologies to
determine and maintain pipeline integrity
Special Requirement
The instructor requires that participants bring a laptop with them to
class.
