Pig launching required in pipeline:- The Well fluid produced on the Wellhead platform is to be processed either at an offshore Process Platform, or at an onshore facility. For this, the well fluid is to be sent to the processing facility through sub-sea pipelines. The production header joins the Pipeline, after a Pig launcher. The … Read more

These piping designing books are useful for the beginners.These piping designing books are cover all the topics and all the information in detail manner which are used in filed of piping … Read more
Gas compression: Gas from a pure natural gas wellhead might have sufficient pressure to feed directly into a pipeline transport system. Gas from separators has generally lost so much pressure that it must be re compressed to be transported. Turbine compressors gain their energy by using up a small proportion of the natural gas that … Read more
Weldolets are self-reinforced branch connections used to link a smaller (branch pipe) to a larger (run pipe) pipe. They are composed of forged steel and come in a range of shapes and sizes, such as 90-degree and 45-degree elbows, tees, and crosses. Olets are commonly employed in high-pressure and high-temperature environments. A weldolet is much … Read more
Pipe fittings :-There are various types of pipe fittings used to complete the piping system in the plant. These pipe fittings are used to change direction, change diameter, or to branch off from main run of pipe etc. piping system can not be completed without pipe fittings. Details of the piping fitting are given below … Read more
pipe fittings standards: Pipe fittings permit a change in direction of piping, a change in diameter of pipe or a branch to be made from the main run of pipe. They are formed from plate or pipe, machined from forged blanks, cast or molded from plastics. Pipe Fittings do not require normalizing in accordance with … Read more
Below are the following stress acting in piping system A. Axial or Longitudinal direction. B. Circumferential or Hoop’s direction. C. Radial direction. The stresses in the pipe wall are expressed as axial(SL), Hoope’s (SH) and Radial (SR).These stresses which stretch or compress a grain/ crystal are called normal stress because they are normal to the … Read more
Types of flange:- Flanges are used to mechanically connect two pipes together, or a pipe to be mechanically connected to a valve, instrument component or nozzle of equipment. The principle of a flange is to use a mechanical force exerted by the bolts to per-load the gasket sufficiently so that when internal pressure is applied, … Read more
A Flow control valve is a valve that controls fluid flow by adjusting the size of the flow passage in response to a controller signal. This allows for direct control of flow rate and, as a result, control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level. Process Plants require that some of the … Read more
Pipe stress analysis is a method to determine the stresses and strain in piping subjected to static and dynamic loads / forces. Stress analysis can be carried out by using manual calculations, stress monograph and by computational simulation. There are manual methods for pipe stress like check pipe stress as per clause 319.4.1 of the … Read more
