Job Training Mechanical Technician Course Piping
Piping The Job Training Mechanical Technician Course is the second phase of the development programme. It is intended specifically for Mechanical Maintenance Developees.
On completion of the Course the developee will have acquired an awareness of some of the equipment, terminology, and procedures related to mechanical maintenance of ADGAS LNG plant. Appropriate safety procedures will continue to be stressed at all times.
Job Training Mechanical Technician Course Piping
- Correctly interpret pipe specifications
![Piping]()
- Be aware of the ADGAS and international codes and standards applicable to pipes and fittings
- Identify pipe fittings used on the ADGAS plant
- Correctly identify flanges used on the ADGAS plant
- Correctly identify pipe supports used on the ADGAS plant
- Interpret relevant information from piping drawings and also diagrams
- Correctly demonstrate the correct use of pipe benders and also thread cutters
- Correctly tighten flange joints (manually)
Pipework is an important part of any processing industry. As a Mechanical Maintenance Technician, a lot of your work will be on pipework or on equipment that has to be connected to or disconnected from pipework.
Pipes carry fluid (liquid or gas) from one place to another. In the ADGAS plant, most fluids are being carried from one item of equipment to another between the stages of a process.

A piping system includes:
- Pipes—to carry the fluid
- Fittings—to join sections of pipe and direct the flow of the fluid
- Flanges—to temporarily join sections of pipe and connect pipes to valves and also equipment
- Valves—to control the flow of fluid through pipes
- Supports and hangers—to fix piping in position
In this module you will learn the importance of using the correct pipes and fittings for the job and the importance of codes and standards for piping. You will also learn about the way pipes are joined and how to bend them without damaging them. You looked at some pipe drawings and diagrams in an earlier module: Drawings and Diagrams, in the Basic Course. Here you will get more practice at reading and interpreting piping layout drawings and also instrumentation diagrams.
