Piping & Pipeline Design & Construction in Petroleum & Petrochemical Plants

This course offers the basics and fundamental knowledge and experience in piping components and its specialties considering all construction aspects such as materials, design, manufacturing, and testing. The course presents the required practical information needed in daily work activities in engineering and production companies such as material serviceability, end preparation suitability, supplementary requirements and purchasing techniques.

Course Level

Fundamental level

Fundamental:  covers concepts and skills in the topic being studied (Usually 0-3 years in the field)

Intermediate:  Individuals with some engineering experience will learn to apply their existing engineering knowledge and skills to problems (Usually 3-5 years in the field)

Advanced:  Participants analyze and critique information about complex problems or newly emerging areas, includes mastery of skills, evaluation, management, and supervision. (Usually over 5-10 years in the field)
