Accurate drawings – and the ability to interpret them – are crucial to effectively assess emergency situations and evaluate safety, environmental and regulatory compliance issues. This course will equip the attendees with techniques to master the reading and interpretation of Industrial Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams.
Trainees will be using actual Industrial Prints as study material. The course shall combine classroom instruction and workshop training exercises focusing on critical documentation essential to the safe day-to-day operation of facilities (e.g.P&ID, PFD, Plot Plan, Piping Drawing, etc.).
