Handbook of Oil and Gas Piping: a Practical and Comprehensive Guide - Product Features
- The objective of this practical oil and gas piping handbook is to facilitate project management teams of oil and gas piping related construction projects to understand the key requirements of the discipline and to equip them with the necessary knowledge and protocol. It provides a comprehensive coverage on all the practical aspects of piping related material sourcing, fabrication essentials, welding related items, NDT activities, erection of pipes, pre-commissioning, commissioning, post-commissioning, project management and importance of ISO Management systems in oil and gas piping projects. This handbook assists contractors in ensuring the right understanding and application of protocols in the project.
- One of the key assets of this handbook is that the technical information and the format provided are practically from real time oil and gas piping projects; hence, the application of this information is expected to enhance the credibility of the contractors in the eyes of the clients and to some extent, simplify the existing operations. Another important highlight is that it holistically covers the stages from the raw material to project completion to handover and beyond. This will help the oil and gas piping contractors to train their project management staff to follow the best practices in the oil and gas industry. Furthermore, this piping handbook provides an important indication of the important project-related factors (hard factors) and organizational-related factors (soft factors) to achieve the desired project performance dimensions, such as timely completion, cost control, acceptable quality, safe execution and financial performance. Lastly, the role of ISO management systems, such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 in construction projects is widely known across the industry; however, oil and gas specific ISO quality management systems, such as ISO 29001, and project specific management systems, such as ISO 21500, are not widely known in the industry, which are explained in detail in this handbook for the benefit of the oil and gas construction organizations.

Problems in Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics (Springer Tracts in Civil Engineering) - Product Features
- This textbook offers a unique introduction to hydraulics and fluid mechanics through more than 100 exercises, with guided solutions, which students will find valuable in preparation for their preliminary or qualifying exams and for testing their grasp of the subject. In some exercises two different solution methods are proposed, to highlight the fact that the level of complexity of the calculations is often linked to the choice of method, though in most cases only the simplest method is presented. The exercises are organized by subject, covering forces on planes and curved surfaces; floating bodies; exercises that require the application of linear and angular momentum balancing in inertial and non-inertial references; pipeline systems, with particular applications to industrial plants; hydraulic systems with machines (pumps and turbines); transient phenomena in pipelines; and uniform and gradually varied flows in open channels. The book also features appendices that contain selected data and formulas of practical interest. Instructors of courses that address one or all of the above topics will find the exercises of great help in preparing their courses, while researchers will find the book useful as an accessible summary of the topics covered.

Advances in Subsea Pipeline Engineering and Technology: Papers presented at Aspect ?90, a conference organized by the Society for Underwater ... Ocean Science and Offshore Engineering) - Product Features
- Dr C P Ellinas Advanced Mechanics & Engineering Ltd Major advances have been achieved in recent years in subsea pipeline design and installation. Inspection, maintenance and repair have also received much attention. The development of marginal fields has brought with it special problems, which have necessitated novel methods and solutions. In the meanwhile interest in the development of deepwater fields continues with the development of new technology. This Conference has placed emphasis in addressing developments in pipeline technology under four main headings: pipeline/seabed interaction; flexible pipelines; pipeline design, fabrication and installation; deepwater applications. Advances in North Sea technology over the last few years have been concerned mostly with marginal fields, small diameter pipelines and new materials, which are well covered in the first three topics. Economic development of marginal fields requires processing of oil and gas to take place not at the wellhead but at existing facilities, usually some distance away. Hydrocarbons are thus often transported at high pressure and temperature in small diameter pipelines, which need to be protected through trenching. However, such operational practice has brought to the fore a problem that in the past was of little concern namely, upheaval buckling.
Modellbildung und Simulation einer Pipeline und Entwurf einer Leck?berwachung - Product Features
- Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2003 im Fachbereich Elektrotechnik, Note: 1,0, Universit?t der Bundeswehr M?nchen, Neubiberg (Institut f?r Automatisierungs- und Regelungstechnik), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Bei modernen Anlagen und Apparaten treten ?berwachungstechnische Aspekte mehr und mehr in den Vordergrund. Das Ziel ist nicht mehr nur die Entwicklung funktionierender und zuverl?ssig arbeitender Systeme, sondern immer h?ufiger auch die Implementierung einer raschen und verl?sslichen Fehlererkennung und Auswertung. Nur dadurch ist gew?hrleistet m?gliche Verluste im Fehlerfall - durch zu langen Funktionsausfall oder etwaige Folgesch?den - gering zu halten. Als Beispiel gen?gt bereits ein kurzer Blick auf die Ver?nderungen in der Kraftfahrzeugtechnik. Immer komplexere Aggregate und Fahrzeugsysteme erfordern eine genauso komplexe ?berwachung. Beschr?nken sich in ?lteren Fahrzeugen Warnsysteme meist nur auf ?ltemperatur und -druck, so finden sich bei modernen Kraftfahrzeugen eine Vielzahl von Warn- und Fehleranzeigen. Aufgetretene Fehler werden gar zusammen mit verschiedenen Parametern wie Geschwindigkeit und Drehzahl in einem Fehlerspeicher abgelegt und k?nnen zur Analyse mit Computern (Bild 1.1) ausgelesen werden. Bei schwerwiegenden Fehlern im Fahrbetrieb aktiviert eine Steuereinheit ein so genanntes Notlaufprogramm und sch?tzt den Motor so vor Besch?digung. Bild 1.1: Kraftfahrzeug-Diagnoseger?t KTS650 (Bosch) [Bild 1.1 in Downloaddatei enthalten] Besonders wichtig ist eine automatisierte Fehlererkennung bei Systemen, die weitgehend autark - also ohne bedienendes Personal vor Ort - arbeiten. Solche Systeme k?nnen weit abgelegen sein und von einer Zentralen Schaltwarte kontrolliert und gesteuert werden. Im Fehle rfall ist hier ein schnelles Eingreifen - gegebenenfalls ?ber Fernleittechnik - entscheidend, um gr??ere Sch?den zu verhindern. Solch ein weitgehend autark arbeitendes System stellt auch eine Pipeline dar (Bild 1.2). Hier werden ?ber weite Strecken - h?ufig
