Advanced Plant Design & Hydrogen Infrastructure: ASME & OISD Standards

The energy landscape is shifting, and piping engineers must adapt. This comprehensive bundle offers a unique combination of advanced traditional piping skills and cutting-edge hydrogen infrastructure knowledge.

It is designed for professionals working in the EPC and Oil & Gas sectors, particularly those operating within or designing for the Indian market where OISD standards are mandatory. You will go beyond the basics, diving into the “Top 5 Modules” of Process Piping, before transitioning into the specialized world of Hydrogen piping design and safety.

Why this bundle is essential:

• Future-Proof Your Career: Gain early expertise in ASME B31.12, the governing code for the rapidly growing Hydrogen economy.

• Regulatory Compliance: Master OISD 118 and 241, the critical standards for statutory compliance in Indian refineries and green hydrogen plants.

• Advanced Engineering: Move past basic B31.3 knowledge into advanced stress analysis and material selection topics.

• Holistic Design: Learn not just the piping codes, but the facility layout rules that dictate where equipment sits.

What You Will Learn (Learning Objectives)

• Hydrogen Engineering: Interpret the latest ASME B31.12-2023 code for designing Hydrogen piping and pipelines.

• Advanced Process Piping: Navigate complex clauses in ASME B31.3, focusing on critical calculations, impact testing, and flexibility analysis.

• Plant Layout Mastery: Apply OISD 118 rules for equipment spacing, hazardous area classification, and fire safety distances in refineries.

• H2 Safety Compliance: Implement specific safety protocols for Hydrogen handling, storage, and transportation as per OISD-STD-241.

• Risk Mitigation: Understand the specific material embrittlement issues associated with Hydrogen service.
