What is Covered in This Course

Piping components are basic building blocks of Oil & Gas Industries.

The oil and Gas industries have become very competitive at the current time. Getting the right mentor and the right exposure within the industry is difficult during the growth phase of your career.

With a limited training budget spent by the company on employee training, it is even more difficult to acquire the knowledge to succeed.

This piping components training course is designed based on years of field experience to ensure that you know every aspect of the piping components you will expose in the field. Once you are in, you can access this course for a lifetime.

A real-life industrial course on Piping Components is used in the Oil & Gas industries.

  • Different types of Pipe, Pipe fittings (Elbow, Tee, Reducers, Caps, etc.), Flanges, Gaskets, Branch Connections (Olets), Bolting materials
  • Special piping components such as valve, long neck flange, steam traps, orifice flange, spacer & spade, spectacle blind, expansion joints, strainer, etc.
  • Materials (Metal-Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Alloy Steel, etc., Non-Metal- PVC/CPVC, HDPE, GRE-GRP, etc.)
