Activities of piping design engineer:
Review of process package:
This activity is carried out prior to start the detail engineering to ensure availability of all the required process data by all engineering groups. This includes the following:
1) Process data required converting P & ID’s to piping layouts like a proper identification of valves, strainers, In-line instruments,
2) Utility summery giving utility consumption for each equipment with duty conditions like pressure, temperature etc.,
3) Conceptual equipment layout drawings for process plant reflecting the process constraints.
4) Process data sheets for equipments.
5) Hazardous area classification etc..
