Requirements

A Pipe rack is a space allocated for routing several parallel adjacent pipelines within process plants. It is the structure employed for carrying the pipelines, electrical & instrument trays.

REQUIREMENT OF A PIPE RACK

1. To arrange process & service pipelines throughout the plant.

2. To provide a protected location for auxiliary equipment, pumps, utility stations, manifolds, fire fighting & first aid stations.

3. To mount Lighting & other fixtures on columns.

4. To locate Air-cooled equipment & air coolers at elevated heights.

In this course,  Many factors influenced the design of pipe racks in the Oil and gas processing facility.
