Fundamentals of Onshore & Offshore Pipeline Systems
Course Description
This intensive foundation level course covers the design, construction, and operation of pipeline systems. The focus is on pipeline routing, hydraulics, mechanical design, and construction for both onshore and offshore pipelines. The result of this course is cost-effective, safe and environmentally sound design, construction, inspection, operation, and maintenance of pipelines. Design problems and group projects are an integral part of this course. The course will provide a complete and up-to-date overview of the area of pipeline engineering taking the candidates through the pre-design phase, design, construction, installation, operation and maintenance

Technical professionals who are new to the pipeline business or need a broad understanding of the pipeline business including: pipeline project managers, pipeline engineers, facilities engineers, pipeline design and construction engineers, engineering and construction contractors
