#Piping_And_Instrumentation_Diagram (P&ID) 📍The process flow diagram (PFD) is the primary source of information for the development of piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID)🗺️. 📍The P&ID is a schematic diagram which shows the interconnection of the process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process🏗️. 📍The P&ID should define piping, equipment and instrumentation well enough for cost estimation and subsequent design, engineering, construction, pre-commissioning, operation, maintenance and modification of the process🦺. 📍During the design and engineering phase of a project, the P&ID provides the basis for the development of system control schemes, allowing for further safety and operational investigation, such as the hazard and operability study (HAZOP)📝. 📌P&IDs are also referred as Engineering Flow Diagrams (EFDs)📋. 📍A P&ID as a minimum should include⛳: ✔️ Mechanical equipment with names and numbers⚙️ ✔️Instrumentation and designations✍️ ✔️Process piping, sizes and identification🧮 ✔️All valves and their identifications🥴 ✔️Vent, drains, piping specialty fittings, sampling lines, reducers,etc. ✔️Permanent start-up and flush lines, Flow directions ✔️Interconnections references🔄 ✔️Control input and output, interlocks📤 ✔️Interface for pipe class changes📈 📌In short, P&ID is just a pictorial representation of ✔️Key piping and instrument details📜 ✔️Control and shutdown schemes🔏 ✔️Safety and regulatory requirements🧑🚒 ✔️Basic start-up and operational information✨ #pipe #pipeing #construction #designer #engineering #mechanical #material #tubes #isometrics #drawing #layout #fittings #flanges #valves #pipingengineer #pipingQC #pipingsystem #industrialpiping #pipingengineering #pipingdesign #pipinginstallation #pipingmaintenance #pipingfabrication #pipinginspection #pipingtesting #pipingrepair #pipingindustry #pipingtrends #pipingtechnology

- Basic Engineering Design Work Sequence for Refinery Projects - Basic Engineering Design (BED) refers to a comprehensive set of engineering deliverables that outline the fundamental design and engineering requirements for the projects. The objectives are to confirm feasibility, select the technology, refine cost estimate, and identify risks. It includes key deliverables shown by the flow chart attached, such as process flow diagrams (PFDs), piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), equipment data sheets, plot plan and equipment lists. The project management team endeavors to establish a comprehensive scope of work during the BEDP phase. Project management also aims to ensure alignment with stakeholder expectations by managing the project schedule and budget which is a core objective for the project management team. By focusing on these work sequences, project management teams play a critical role in driving the success of refinery projects during the BED sequence. The work sequence fosters collaboration and communication among interdisciplinary teams, including process, mechanical, electrical, and civil engineers. #ProjectManagement #RefineryProjects #Engineering

#Piping #Engineers What is a PFD? process flow diagram is the schematic flow diagram used in the process industries to show the overall process flow to process plant it is a graphical way of describing a process, its constituent tasks, and their sequence And a type of flowchart that illustrates the relationships between major components at an industrial plant . A PFD shows fewer details than a P&ID and is usually the first step in the design process–more of a bird's eye view. More fully developed piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs) are shown in a P&ID. . Why PFD is important for piping design engineers? ·      To understand the process and flow sequence ·      To understand the positioning of equipment as per process sequence. ·      To start a Conceptual and feasibility design such as preliminary equipment placement, positioning of pipe rack, plant entry and exit, maintenance area, assembly points ..etc.

Second phase of an EPC project : Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) is a crucial phase in the life cycle of Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC)Project. Key Aspects of FEED for EPC Projects: 1. Project Definition and Scope: - Scope of Work: Detailed description of engineering, procurement, and construction activities. - Project Boundaries: Clear limits, including interfaces with existing facilities and projects. - Specifications: Detailed specs for materials, equipment, and systems. 2. Design Basis: - Process Design: Development of process flow diagrams (PFDs), piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs), and key parameters. - Mechanical Design: Preliminary design of vessels, heat exchangers, and rotating machinery. - Electrical/Instrumentation Design: Basic design for systems, including one-line diagrams and control philosophies. - Civil/Structural Design: Initial design for foundations, layouts, and structural loads. - Safety/Environmental Design: Development of safety systems, fire protection, and environmental assessments. 3. Cost Estimation: - Capital/Operating Costs: Detailed estimates for materials, labor, and operational costs. 4. Schedule Development: - Project Schedule: Timeline for engineering, procurement, and construction activities. - Milestone Identification: Critical path activities and key project phases. 5. Risk Assessment: - Technical/Project Risks: Evaluation of design challenges and risks like delays and cost overruns. - Mitigation Plans: Strategies and contingencies for risk management. 6. Procurement Planning: - Long-Lead Items: Identification of early procurement strategies. - Vendor Selection: Prequalification of suppliers and preliminary material take-offs. 7. Regulatory/Compliance: - Permitting/Compliance: Ensuring adherence to local and international regulations. 8. Stakeholder Engagement: - Client Requirements/Interface Management: Alignment with client expectations and coordination with stakeholders. 9. Documentation and Deliverables: - Design Deliverables: Preparation of detailed drawings, specifications, and reports. - Review/Approval: Formal review process by clients and stakeholders. 10. Decision Support: - Feasibility Analysis/Gate Reviews: Assessment of project feasibility and decision-making for advancing to the next phase. Importance of FEED: FEED lays the groundwork for the EPC project, minimizing risks and uncertainties while enabling accurate budgeting and scheduling. A robust FEED leads to a smoother transition into detailed engineering and construction, reducing rework and enhancing project success. #FrontEndEngineeringDesign #FEED #EPCProjects #EngineeringDesign #DetailedEngineering #EngineeringManagement #FEEDImplementation #FEEDOptimization
