Secure TransactionBook Description
This eBook+ version includes the following enhancements:
75 Multiple choice questions with interactive answers, ideal for self study. The MCQs will help readers put the theory learned within the book to the test
The book covers the life cycle of pipeline valves, the largest and most essential valve in offshore pipeline engineering. Discussing the design process, testing, production, transportation, installation, and maintenance, the book also covers the risk analysis required to assess the reliability of the valves. Pipeline valves require particular attention to ensure they are safely designed, installed and maintained, due to the high stakes. Failure would result in environmental pollution, the destruction of expensive assets and potentially loss of life. This requires specialist processes throughout the lifecycle of the valve. This book is a key guide to these processes. Beginning by looking at the design of pipeline valves, it details how conserving weight and space is prioritised, how materials are chosen, thickness calculated and how leakage is minimised. It then discusses production, and specific welding techniques to bond dissimilar materials, alongside casting and machining. Including case studies and questions and answers for self-study, this book is the ideal guide to pipeline valves. This book will be of interest to professionals in the industry of offshore oil and gas, material engineering, coatings, mechanical engineering, and piping. It will also be relevant to students studying coating, welding, mechanical, piping or petroleum engineering.
