Floating Unit Piping Stress Analysis

22 - 24 April 2015 | Singapore

Course Introduction
Piping system design constitutes a major part of the design and engineering
effort in FPSO & FLNG topsides facility. Stress analysis is a critical component of
topsides piping design due to the extreme operating environment, safety of
related components and complex piping process within limited topsides space.
The objective of pipe stress analysis is to prevent premature failure of piping and
piping components and ensuring that piping stresses are kept within allowable
limits.
This Floating Unit Piping Stress Analysis workshop is designed to provide you an
in-depth understanding of the engineering principles and design requirements
involved in Topsides Process Piping Design and Stress Analysis. Key challenges
such as the flexibility and movement of the floating unit deck, location on the
deck, sea states and weather conditions, piping temperatures and pressures
at the required operating conditions, piping material and flexibility and piping
runs configuration will be addressed by your expert course trainer.
Unlike other events, this training course will be packed with case-studies, proven
solutions and content specific to your needs.

Programme format
This unique, cutting edge
programme will be delivered in a
highly interactive and practical,
tutorial style format. Theory will
be supported and illustrated
through a combination of realworld case studies and an
extended hypothetical scenario
that enables participants to easily
incorporate the programme
insights, techniques and
procedures into their own
organisations

Pre-course questionnaire
To ensure that you gain maximum
benefit from this event, a detailed
questionnaire will be sent to you
to establish exactly what your
course needs are. The completed
forms will be analysed by the
course facilitator. As a result, we
ensure the course is delivered at
an appropriate level and that
relevant issues will be addressed.
The comprehensive course
material will enable you to digest
the subject matter in your own
time.
