P&IDs Reading and Development Teqniques.

Course description.

P&IDs are key documents for almost all processing plants. It is essential for engineers and operation personnel to understand the contents of these diagrams and interpret the relation between the components, equipment, piping and the instrumentation. This course will provide trainees with the knowledge essential for understanding, interpreting, and developing P&IDs. Topics covered in this course include the symbols, tagging, abbreviations and basic explanations of key items on P&IDs, as well as the broader understanding of the different arrangements of each item presented. The footpath of P&IDs during the lifetime of a design project will be studied. This course is designed to cover all aspect of the development phases, from the conceptual design phase of a project to the detailed engineering phase. Participants that are working in the Oil & Gas industry will learn the functionality of P&IDs during design, maintenance, modifications, troubleshooting, construction, and operation of the process facilities. By completing the course, participants will be able to read and understand essential components in P&IDs. Furthermore, participants will gain the skills needed for the development of these diagrams independently, and know how to develop P&IDs from Process Flow Diagrams.

Who should attend.

All process/chemical engineers, mechanical engineers, instrumentation engineers, piping designers, operation and maintenance personnel, who have either just graduated or are working in the Oil & Gas industry, power plants, water treatment plant, chemical plants, pipeline operations and the energy industry in general.

Course instructor.

P. Eng. A. Seklani has 25+ years of experience in various aspects of process engineering for both upstream and downstream facilities of the Oil & Gas industry. PEng. Seklani has conducted engineering and design work for gas processing and treating plants, as well as oil refineries including GOSPs, gas sweetening, dehydration, dew point control, condensate stabilization, C5/C6 Isomerization, LPG Merox, Hydro-treaters and Utilities & Off-sites. He has substantial experience in developing P&IDs, PFDs, UFDs, and MSDs and has played a key role in HAZOP reviews and PHA sessions. He has strong diversified experience in grassroots, upgrading and expansion projects and was involved in conceptual scoping, FEED and detailed engineering design phase.
