Course Description
This 2-day course will provide participants with the principles of P&ID drawings which are used in process industries. This course is suitable for individuals dealing with P&ID’s in all Process industries including Chemical, Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Water & wastewater, and Food processing industries.

A road map of P&ID during the lifetime of a design project is studied. Symbols, tagging, and basic explanations of popular items in P&ID drawings are among the topics covered and, for broader understanding, the different arrangements of each item is presented. Additionally given are some rules of thumb.

This course will cover piping, valves and control valves, tank and vessels, pumps, heat exchangers and control systems, including BPSC, SIS, and Alarm.
Each individual concept is reinforced using P&ID schematics specific to the topic.

Course Includes
Real life P&ID’s, Acronym lists, Exercises (for class activity)

A complete set of course materials and a light lunch are included.
