Piping engineering guides the
person who has their duties and responsibility for all piping
engineering and designing activities as a procedure plant project.
The duties and responsibilities of the PEL are depending upon the
Engineering company, The client for the project, the type of the
project and project performance philosophy and the construction
philosophy.
The following are the activities
of PEL and responsibilities.
- Participate the proposal team in pre-bid meeting with client and proposal development.
- Exploring the physical scope of the piping effort for the project.
- Preparing total labor hour estimate for the piping effort.
- Preparing the total cost of estimated piping items.
- Preparing overall piping discipline, coordinated and compatible with other engineering disciplines
- Total activities of piping plan
- Preparing data records for total engineering disciplines
- Maximum use of resources (manpower)
- Awareness expenditure for people or works.
- Great accurate status report.
- Periodically proper project completion and close out.
ROLE
AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Each and every PEL person should
accept the role and responsibilities of the position. This position
is the most top position in the piping design. The position is the
most top position in each discipline. There is normally seven
discipline on a major process plant project. A Sevier person is led
up to each discipline.
DIPLOMACY
The PEL is doing direct contact
with many other engineering groups. PEC needs to be able to
understand the roles of each group and able to discuss mutual needs
and contributions.
CO-ORDINATIONS
All discipline leaders need to
know about their own responsibilities and coordinate each group for
successful implementation and contributions of piping.
COACHING
During the project, any technical
problems will be raised from any disciplines, the PEL should be
assigned to solve the problem.
ORGANISATION
PEL needs to organize every aspect
of the piping project. It includes communication, space, computers,
and staff.
CHEERLEADER
The duty of Cheer Leader is to
motivate all members of the piping groups from the first day to the
last day of the project.
GENERAL
General means to take a charge.
Provide directly to make subgroups of the piping and give all the
pieces of information and advise.
PLANNER/VISIONARY
The first most important
responsibilities of PCL is making knowledge about how to develop a
project scope of work (SOW). SOW is aims 'Target'. Developing a sow
requires the ability takes place from start to finish of the project
and requires the ability to see into the future.
ESTIMATOR
The estimator is the supervisor of
the four subgroups need to be able to develop definitive labor hour
or man hours for all activities of the project. This labor hour is
approved by the project client.
SCHEDULE
The schedule also needs to be able
to develop a definitive control level schedule for all the
activities.
IMPORTANCE
OF PIPING INSPECTION
These
are the very important aspects or a summary of points for the process
piping inspection and should not be assumed as the entire piping
inspection procedure.
A
piping inspection procedure is a universal document, which needs to
enclose inspection methods to be employed, the usage of types of
equipment and materials etc.
These
are the following points for the service in piping inspections
system.
- To generate the piping inventory list indicating the pipe specification class, line number, rating, schedule, pipe origin location (from) and pipe destination location (to)
- To generate piping isometric sketches to forward inspection and the recording of corrosion monitoring locations (CMLs)
- Dividing the whole unit of piping into piping circuits based on the process of their condition and potential degradation mechanism
- Select the appropriate NDE techniques for each piping circuit based on the circuit damage mechanism
- Identification of CMLs points in piping isometric sketches based on the potential for general or localized corrosion and service-specific damage mechanisms
