Description
Tank Layout & Piping is one of the important section in piping engineering. Oil & Gas industries have various types of tanks with different applications. All the Piping Engineers must know about the classifications and Types of tanks layouts along with various codes & standard clause. Moreover, tanks will be storing huge volume of fluid which call for additional safety requirements, Hence various firefighting & NFPA requirements need to be referred and implemented.
