ASME B31.4 PIPELINE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS FOR LIQUID HYDROCARBONS & OTHER LIQUID
This training course focuses on the ASME B31.4 for Pipeline Transportation Systems for Liquid Hydrocarbons and other Liquids. This training course introduces the different parts of the ASME B31.4 Standard .and will cover all topics requirements for safe design, construction, inspection, testing, operation and maintenance of liquid pipeline systems. Furthermore, assessing pipeline integrity is an essential part of this Code to ensure the safe transportation of liquids. In addition, the design, materials examination, testing, Construction, Welding, Assembly Corrosion Control and Offshore Liquid Pipeline Systems are handled in detail.
Scope and applications of ASME B31.4. The pressures design formula for internal and external stress .
