Piping Design & Detail Engineering - Certificate Program

Piping are a major asset in most process plants, and ensuring its functionality and effectiveness is a paramount operation and business requirement. Piping design engineering course for engineers and piping system designers reviews the key areas associated with the design of piping systems for oil and gas & other process facilities. The course is focused on four areas: codes and standards, pipe materials, piping components, and piping layout and design. Applicable piping codes for oil and gas facilities (ISO, B31.3, B31.4, B31.8, etc.), pipe sizing calculations, pipe installation, piping materials specification & selection are an integral part of the course. The emphasis is on proper material selection and specification of piping systems.
