What will I learn?
This comprehensive “Onshore Pipeline Engineering” course comprises of lectures, photos and video
presentations, some case studies and workshops providing an overview of onshore pipelines engineering.
This course provides an insight to fundamental issues for a robust, safe, and economical design of
onshore pipeline systems. The topics of the course are carefully selected to cover pipeline engineering
aspects from conceptual to detailed design and maintenance. The principal code followed in this course is ASME B 31.4 “Pipeline Transportation of Liquid Hydrocarbons and Other Liquids” ASME B 31.8 (Gas
Transmission and Distribution Piping systems) together with other codes like BS PD 8010 – 1 (Pipeline
systems. Steel pipelines on land. Code of practice), API RP 1102 (Steel Pipelines Crossing Railroads and Highways), API RP 1104 (Standard for Welding Pipeline and other related Facilities), and other relevant
codes and practices.
This training course helps to gain understanding on:
• Steps involved in engineering and design of onshore pipeline systems from route selection
to pre-commissioning and operation;
• Key topics related to engineering of onshore pipeline systems;
• Physical concept behind pipeline design philosophy;
• Criteria for the robust and safe design of pipelines.
