Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs) are among the most critical engineering documents used throughout the lifecycle of a process facility. Yet effectively working with P&IDs requires more than knowing how to read symbols or follow drawing conventions. Professionals must understand the engineering intent behind each element and how piping, equipment, instrumentation, controls, operations, maintenance, and safety considerations come together within the complete system.
This course provides a practical understanding of how P&IDs are developed, interpreted, reviewed, and applied in process facilities. Participants will explore the principles and management of P&ID development; piping, valves, and process equipment; instrumentation and control systems; utilities; and the operational, maintenance, and safety considerations that influence P&ID design. Rather than focusing only on what appears on a drawing, the course examines why information is included and the engineering principles and design considerations behind it.
Designed for professionals working in oil refining, gas processing, petrochemical, and batch or continuous process facilities, this course will strengthen participants' ability to confidently interpret and work with P&IDs throughout design, operation, and maintenance. Whether you're new to P&IDs or looking to deepen your existing knowledge, join us to build practical skills you can apply to the engineering drawings you work with every day.
