Piping Engineering

A specialist area of mechanical engineering called piping engineering discusses the piping and equipment and process unit layout in chemical, petrochemical, or hydrocarbon facilities. A piping engineer is responsible for many different duties within each department.

In order to ensure the safe functioning of the facilities for the design life, they are largely responsible for the layout of the overall plant facilities, the positioning of equipment and process units in the plot, and the related pipe design.

Piping Engineering majorly involves the following competencies:

• Plant setup and Layout
• Equipment Layout
• Piping placement and Layout
• Piping Materials
• Piping Supports
