Overview:

Gas properties: Density, gravity, viscosity and compressibility factor. Variation with temperature.
Understand the various pressure drop formulas such as Colebrook-White, Darcy-Weisbach, AGA, Panhandle A and B and Weymouth equations for steady state flow in gas pipelines. Friction factor, Reynold's number and Transmission factor.
Heat transfer between gas and surrounding medium. Joule-Thompson effect.
Size pipelines for specified throughput and pressures. Calculate MAOP and Hydrotest Pressures.
Calculate the locations and HP of compressor stations on long distance pipelines.
Pressure and temperature profile of natural gas pipelines.
Thermal Conductivity versus Overall heat transfer coefficient.
Determine the line pack volume in gas pipelines.
Easy to use Windows software* provided FREE for quick & accurate hydraulic studies. This is not a DEMO program! Models gas pipelines with multiple compressor stations.

Bring your laptop computer to this workshop and solve real-world pipeline engineering hydraulics problems using the free software* provided! You will learn gas pipeline hydraulics, without the rigorous math. Learn from an industry expert who has been in the field for over 29 years.

Previous attendees include personnel from ARCO, Edison, Enron, El Paso Energy, EQUILON, MOTIVA, Kinder-Morgan Energy, Plantation Pipeline, SPEC Services, Texaco E&P, Valero and many more.

A companion workshop in Liquid Pipeline Hydraulics is also scheduled. Call for details. The workshop will start promptly at 8:00 AM and will be over by 5:00 PM each day. A lunch break and two coffee breaks will be scheduled. Registration fee includes lunch. A workshop manual and a full-functioning software disk* with user manual will be provided as part of the course.

*This is a limited license to use the retail software for a period of 60 days.

E. Shashi Menon, Ph.D., P.E. will conduct the workshop. He has over 36 years experience in the Oil and Gas industry, having held positions of Design Engineer, Project Engineer, Engineering Manager and Chief Engineer for various Oil and Gas companies in the USA. He has taught pipeline engineering and computer courses and authored several technical papers. He has also developed and co-authored over a dozen Windows software programs for the oil and gas industry.
