The Layout of Piping Systems
and Process Equipment

The layout diagrams are essential for maintaining and modifying the process they represent. During the design phase, these diagrams serve as the foundation for developing system control schemes, such as the Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP). For processing facilities, they visually represent key piping and instrumentation details, control and shutdown systems, safety and regulatory requirements, as well as basic startup and operational information.

Facility drawings are valuable tools for planning maintenance, identifying risks, and ensuring effective planning for valve placement during maintenance or modifications. With these diagrams, staff can manage emergencies professionally by proactively planning and establishing a safe course of action. This Layout of Piping Systems and Process Equipment training course will help participants understand all aspects of major equipment and piping systems in process plants.
