Plant Piping

Plant Piping Training Course provides a strong and practical foundation for professionals responsible for the performance, integrity, and safe operation of industrial piping systems. Pipelines remain the most efficient and high-capacity method for transporting hydrocarbons, and with this advantage comes the need for precise engineering, sound design practices, and robust maintenance strategies. This course helps participants understand how properly designed and well-managed piping systems support reliability across oil, gas, and petrochemical operations.

In this Plant Piping Training, participants explore key engineering concepts related to pipeline design, hydraulic behaviour, material selection, structural integrity, and corrosion mechanisms. The course also clarifies how major standards such as ASME B31.3 and API 570 guide decision-making, improve compliance, and ensure safe operating practices. Each concept is presented through real case discussions and worked examples that mirror real-world design, inspection, and maintenance requirements.

Throughout the Plant Piping Course, delegates gain practical insights into deterioration mechanisms, failure modes, and inspection techniques used across modern processing facilities. The course encourages active learning through workshops that simulate common industrial challenges, supporting participants in understanding how to evaluate pipeline condition, interpret technical data, and contribute effectively to piping system improvements, repairs, and modifications.

This Plant Piping Training Course aims to strengthen participants’ technical understanding of pipeline design, operational behaviour, and maintenance practices while improving their ability to evaluate integrity and prevent failures. The course offers a structured approach to analysing pipeline performance and applying the essential codes and standards that govern piping systems.

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

• Understand core principles of pipeline design and their application in industrial facilities.
• Evaluate structural integrity considerations related to operation, pressure, and environmental effects.
• Identify corrosion mechanisms and recognise typical structural and material-related failure modes.
• Understand essential maintenance and inspection practices applicable to process piping.
• Apply the requirements of ASME and API codes within operational and maintenance activities.
• Implement recognised industry guidelines to support safe and efficient pipeline performance.

This Plant Piping Course is designed for professionals involved in the design, operation, inspection, and maintenance of plant piping systems across oil, gas, petrochemical, and processing environments.

It is ideal for:

• Process, chemical, and mechanical engineers working in refineries, petrochemical plants, and gas facilities.
• Technical, operations, and maintenance personnel responsible for pipeline inspection and maintenance.
• Engineers involved in planning new installations, system modifications, or facility upgrades.
• Professionals overseeing day-to-day pipeline control, monitoring, and troubleshooting.
• Consultants supporting pipeline design, optimisation, or regulatory compliance efforts.
• Technical staff engaged in equipment repair, reliability improvement, or plant modifications.

The Plant Piping Training is delivered using practical, workshop-based learning that reinforces understanding through real industrial scenarios. Participants benefit from a blend of technical explanation, interactive sessions, and applied engineering examples that highlight the factors affecting pipeline design, operation, and maintenance.

Learning will include:

• Interactive workshops and technical discussions.
• Worked examples demonstrating design, inspection, and failure analysis.
• Visual aids, simulations, and videos to illustrate engineering concepts.
• Case-based problem-solving drawn from actual industrial challenges.
• Opportunities for participants to share experiences and discuss practical solutions.
