Oil & GasProduction, Processing & Measurement

Design & Construction of Petroleum Pipelines

Overview

This course provides focused training in engineering and delivery of onshore petroleum pipeline infrastructure. It addresses practical requirements encountered in new pipelines, replacement sections and brownfield tie-ins. Participants explore the technical principles behind reliable decision-making and day-to-day execution. The learning experience uses relevant field examples, guided exercises and technical discussions. The program is intended for engineers, technical specialists, supervisors and related operational personnel. Content depth, case studies and delivery methods can be adapted to the client’s equipment, priorities and participant experience.

Objectives

By the end of the program, participants will be able to:

  • Define route, hydraulic and design inputs.
  • Interpret pipeline material and wall thickness considerations.
  • Plan construction, welding and inspection stages.
  • Recognize permitting, safety and environmental requirements.
  • Explain pressure testing and pre-commissioning procedures.
  • Coordinate quality, handover and construction documentation.
