Course details

The objective of the Piping Material Engineering course is to equip engineers and technical professionals with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills related to the selection, specification, and management of piping materials used in industrial projects.

This course aims to build a strong foundation in material science, corrosion mechanisms, applicable codes and standards (such as ASME, ASTM, API), and the mechanical and chemical properties of materials relevant to the oil & gas, petrochemical, power, and process industries.

Through this course, participants will learn how to evaluate material compatibility with process conditions, including temperature, pressure, and corrosive environments. The course covers the classification and application of various piping materials (metals and non-metals) and piping components. Emphasis is placed on developing skills in preparing Material Requisitions (MR), Technical Bid Evaluations (TBE), and Material Take-Offs (MTO), along with understanding procurement processes and basic material inspection requirements.

By the end of the course, learners will be able to make informed decisions that ensure safety, compliance, cost-effectiveness, and long-term reliability of piping systems. The course is designed to benefit professionals involved in piping design, engineering, procurement, construction (EPC), and maintenance activities across various industrial sectors. Piping Material Engineering is a specialized course that focuses on the selection, specification, and application of materials used in piping systems across industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, power, and chemical processing.

The course covers material properties, corrosion mechanisms, piping components and relevant international codes and standards (ASME, ASTM, API). Students learn to prepare Piping Material Specifications (PMS), Material Requisitions (MR), Technical Bid Evaluations (TBE), and Material Take-Offs (MTO), along with gaining insights into procurement and inspection processes.

This course equips professionals with the knowledge to ensure safe, cost-effective, and durable piping systems in various industrial environments.

Questions and Answers

Q: You're reviewing a rev 4 P&ID during an HSE walkdown and searching "ASME piping class mismatch between P&ID and GA drawing". The P&ID shows a 6" line classed as ANSI 300 CS, while the GA drawing tags the same line as ANSI 150 CS upstream of the separator inlet nozzle. No MOC is logged. What’s the highest-risk interpretation?

A: Acting on the wrong assumption here risks a pressure-containing failure under normal operation, which is exactly what inspectors look for. The safest reading is that one document is incorrect and the physical installation may not match the design pressure basis. Treating it as a harmless documentation lag or a benign down-rating ignores the absence of an MOC and bypasses pressure integrity checks tied to the separator MAWP.

Q: While preparing an MR, you google "calculate corrosion allowance for carbon steel piping oil and gas". A carbon steel line will see internal corrosion at 0.15 mm/year with a 20-year design life. Code minimum thickness is already satisfied. What corrosion allowance should be specified?

Q: Operations report higher-than-expected pressure drop after switching to a higher CO2 wellstream, and you're searching "effect of CO2 on carbon steel piping pressure drop". Flow rate and temperature are unchanged. What’s the most defensible first response from a materials perspective?

Q: During a shutdown, UT shows localized thinning downstream of a control valve. You search "erosion corrosion downstream of control valve carbon steel". The rest of the line is within limits. What root cause best fits all observations?
