On the issue of the boundaries between the processes and equipment specialties in chemical plants
Thread Content
I would like to ask fellow industry professionals: in your factories, how is the division of responsibilities between process engineers and equipment technicians handled when it comes to pipelines? For example, what regards do they cover such as pipeline inspection, design (selection of materials and specifications), supports and hangers, single-line drawings and axonometric diagrams, as well as the selection of valves and fittings? Thank you!
Chemical processing technologies fall under the category of applications; they are equipment designed to serve such processes. For reference.
Pipelines are part of the equipment; they are pressure-bearing devices
