Categories > Technical / Mechanical Category    Mechanical Design and Specification     Program Duration : 5 Days Program Date : 05-09 February, 2012 Program Location : Cairo, Egypt Program Fees : US$3200/Per Person   PROGRAM INTRODUCTION: This five day level course for Senior operating personnel involved in piping design and specification and mechanical system designers reviews the key areas associated with the design of in-plant piping systems for oil and gas facilities. The course is focused on five areas: codes and standards, pipe materials and manufacture, piping components (concentrating on valves), piping layout and design, and piping stress analysis. Applicable piping codes for oil and gas facilities (ISO, B31.3, B31.4, B31.8, etc.), pipe sizing calculations, pipe installation and materials selection are an integral part of the course. The emphasis is on proper material selection and specification of piping systems. PROGRAM OBJECTIVES: Apply piping codes and standards. Size and lay out in-plant piping systems.  Specify proper components for process and utility applications.  Compare alternative material solutions and equipment manufacturer. PROGRAM OUTLINES: Piping Codes and Standards (ANSI/ASME, API, ISO).  Pipe materials and Manufacturing.  Valves and Fittings.  Welding and Non-Destructive Testing.  Line Sizing Basics (Single Phase and Multiphase Flow).  Pipe and Valve Material Selection.  Piping Layout and Design.  Manifolds, Headers and Flare / Vent Systems.  Interface with Pipelines and Pipeline Operations.  Operations and Maintenance Considerations. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Budget Control Technical Supervisors who are seeking to further their project management skills & turnaround cost to more advanced level.
