Secure TransactionBook Description
This practical book comprehensively provides key considerations and calculations for piping and fitting selection, maintenance, and troubleshooting to reduce or avoid emission in the oil and gas industry. The first chapters cover fugitive emissions, including the different components that can cause fugitive emission, such as piping flange joints and valves, and leak detection and repair (LDAR)--a key technique to managing them. Principles of piping design to mitigate the failure; piping stresses such as principal, displacement, sustained, occasional and reaction loads; and how to calculate these loads and acceptable limits are explained in detail. Various devices to tighten the bolts for flanges are described, as well as the essential flange fabrications and installation tolerances. Later chapters cover material selection and corrosion prevention for onshore pipeline, onshore and offshore piping. Welding and flange joints are the most popular methods for piping connection and could cause leakage and emission. The book concludes with coverage of different welding defects, causes and prevention.
