Piping Design Engineering

Post Graduate Diploma in Piping Design Engineering

Introduction

Piping design is a key element in various streams of engineering. Piping & accessories constitute over 25% of the total capital investment in the chemical process industry, petroleum & petrochemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, power plants, long distance LNG / LPG / CNG Piping Systems & Irrigation Systems.

Piping design helps system designers, mechanical, packaging, and manufacturing engineers to accurately design, route document, and produce complex piping and tubing systems while optimally re-using designs for dramatic time savings and improvements in productivity.

A variety of global challenges like corrosion prevention, pipeline maintenance, leak detection in long distance pipelines, pipe coating, concrete coating, bending, welding and deep water services, pipeline cleaning, pipeline operating efficiency etc in itself demands a specialised stream in Piping design.

Potential Careers

A Piping engineer plays an important role in "Concept to Commissioning" in all sectors of process and related industries. A Piping engineer has to be conversant with subjects such as fluid handling, stress strain relationship, material of construction, field instrumentation, statutory & safety aspects. Areas like design and selection of complex equipment applications, designing of audit requirements and developing of procedures for testing, installation, commissioning and startup also fall under his profile. With increasing emphasis on transportation of petroleum products, natural gas, corrosive hazardous chemicals, through underground and long distance pipelines, the requirement of skilled piping engineers is increasing day by day.
