Introduction: This course will focus on learning the ASME B31.3 for Pressure process piping for the design, materials examination, testing, and nonmetallic piping. This course further provides an introduction to the different parts of the ASME B31.3 Standard and will cover all requirements for safe design, construction, inspection, testing, operation, and maintenance of liquid pipeline systems. The ASME B31.3 Code focuses on the requirements for process piping related to the design, construction, fabrication, inspection, examination in a safe and economical piping system

Targeted Groups: QA/QC inspectors Maintenance Engineers Inspection & testing professionals Fabrication Engineers QA/QC reliability professionals for oil and gas (Petrochemical and Refining) operations Fresh graduates, piping engineers and designers

Course Objectives: At the end of this course the participants will be able to: Gain knowledge and skills about process piping related ASME B31.3 Identify the design of piping flanges and blanket Understand the Welding and Brazing Qualification, procedures Specifications Explain the Fabrication, Assembly, and Erection and identify the required inspection and testing Define hydrostatic pressure and hydrostatic-pneumatic tests Receive enough information about the Fluid Service Requirements for Materials Explain of nonmetallic piping design, Fluid Service Requirements, inspection and testing Employ pre and post-weld heat treatment and identify the Charpy impact testing
