5. Piping Fundamentals
WHAT IS PIPE?
It is a hollow cylindrical tube which can be made of many
different kinds of material like:
Metal
Plastic
Glass
It’s main purpose is to transport liquids and gases at high/low
(1100oC/-200oC) temperatures and pressures (400
MPa/Vacuum).
6. Piping Fundamentals
WHY PIPES ARE REQUIRED?
To transfer raw products for ships to tanks.
To transfer fluids and gases to processing plant tanks.
To transfer fluids and gases during processing.
To transfer finished products.
22. Industrial Software
The different kinds of software available to develope piping
layout & 3D models:
PDMS
PDS
E3D
SP3D
AutoCAD
Plant 3D
23. Industrial Software
The different kinds of software available for Piping Stress
Analysis:
Caesar II
AutoPipe
Rohr2
26. Piping Administrator
Piping Support Catalogue development

Management and troubleshooting.
Project architecture and databases administration.
Project set up, access control, back up activity, retrieval, database
tracking, merging, replicating project etc.
Piping catalogue development and customization as per
international standard.
27. Pipe Materials Engineer
Prepare:
Piping material specifications.
Fabrication and welding specification.
Shop and site testing specification.
Insulation and piping specification.
Datasheets for valves and strainers.
29. Pipe Layout Engineer
Prepare Design Basis, Specifications
3D Model
Isometrics
Bill of Material
2D Drawings
Plot Plan
Equipment Layout
30. Pipe Stress Engineer
Ensure Stresses in piping systems
are within the code allowable limit
All equipment nozzles loads are
within the allowable limit provided
by vendors
Structural loads due to piping are
uniformly distributed
31. Pipe Stress Engineer
Prepare datasheets for spring
hangers, sway braces, struts and
expansion joints
Ensure that piping systems are
adequately supported during
operations and maintenance
32. Pipe Stress Engineer
Maintain the overall structural
integrity of piping systems for its
designed life.
35. Summary
In this Webinar, we learnt about:
Importance of pipe & fittings
Different piping systems
Job roles required in piping design
Job opportunities
I strongly believe that we should always ask 3 question before we take up anything in job or life.
We should learn to understand rather than believe things.
