Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using the simulator ?CAESAR II?. This course covers the design, fabrication, installation, inspection and testing of pipeline and piping facilities used for the transportation of gas. The course also covers safety aspects of the operation and maintenance of those facilities. It will further discuss the ASME codes including the contents of ASME B31.8 as well as the use of appropriate materials, equipment, welding method and end preparation for buttwelding; enumerate piping systems fabrication details, supports and anchorage for exposed piping and perform designing, installation and testing for steel and non-metallic materials as well as controlling and limiting of gas pressure. Moreover, the participants will be able to determine valves, meters and regulators in gas transportation process; operate procedures affecting the safety of gas transmission systems and list the class location guidelines; apply maintenance of pipelines and distribution piping, corrosion control and criteria for cathodic protection; determine the remaining strength of corroded pipe and estimate strain in dents; carryout offshore gas transmission systems, gas leakage control criteria, on bottom, hydrostatic stability and recommend practice for hydrostatic testing; explain sour gas service including the additional operation and maintenance consideration; employ welding and inspection tests; and identify stress corrosion phenomena.
