3 Questions?
Piping Fundamentals
WHAT IS PIPE?
It is a hollow cylindrical tube which can be made of many
different kinds of material like:
Metal
Plastic
Glass
It’s main purpose is to transport liquids and gases at high/low
(1100oC/-200oC) temperatures and pressures (400
MPa/Vacuum).
Piping Fundamentals
WHY PIPES ARE REQUIRED?
To transfer raw products for ships to tanks.
To transfer fluids and gases to processing plant tanks.
To transfer fluids and gases during processing.
To transfer finished products.
