Course Name:

Piping Design (Specification & Sizing)

Course Objective:

The pipeline networks expanded rapidly allover the world when it became apparent that pipelines are an efficient, economic way to move oil, gas, and petroleum products to consumers. The large discoveries of oil and gas, many of them in remote areas of little local demand, promoted this pipeline expansion. More challenges face the pipeline industry. So, good understanding of pipeline systems will help tackling these challenges. This course deals with the design, construction of both gas and liquid pipeline systems. An overview of pipeline industry is discussed. Participants will have acquire and/or consolidate the essential knowledge and skills to design and construct pipelines. This will allow them to contribute to cost effective, safe and sound-design of pipelines.

Who Should Attend:

Managers, engineers, operators, supervisors, inspectors, equipment suppliers, or those who wish to be familiar with pipeline systems

Course Content:

• Pipeline Design o Design Sequence of P/L network − Evaluation of fluid availability − Estimate of fluid demands. − The Basic design of P/L network. − The Economics of P/L system. o Fluid properties affecting flow • Design of Gas Pipelines o Calculation of compressibility factor. o Properties of gas mixtures. o Pressure drop in gas pipeline due to friction. o Gas pipeline flow equations. o Friction factor and transmission factor. o Gas Pipeline velocity and erosional velocity calculation. o Increasing gas throughput by looping and booster compressor. o Calculation of pipe maximum allowable operating pressure. o Fundamental Calculations of gas compressor stations. o Design of Liquid Pipelines − Calculation of Liquid Flow Parameters (Line capacity – Pressure drop – Pipe Diameter – Max.
