Predicting how water will behave, whether in the ground, through a pipeline network, or across a wider catchment, is one of the core skills hydrology specialists rely on when analysing past and current observations. This Pipeline Hydraulics and Hydrology Training Course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy puts that skill in the context of pipeline engineering, covering hydraulic gradient calculations, pipe selection, pressure, gradual decline, injection and stripping.

Because hydrology intersects with meteorology, geology, statistics, chemistry, physics and fluid mechanics, the course also situates pipeline-specific design issues within this broader scientific picture, and reviews the equipment and methods used to control elevation across a pipeline system.

Who Should Attend:

• Junior engineers entering the pipeline industry.
• Civil and electrical engineers working on pipelines.
• Anyone who needs practical knowledge of hydraulic fluid pipelines and can carry out engineering-level calculations.

Course Objectives:

• Understand the concepts of hydraulic pipelines and pipeline economics.
• Recognise fluid properties and pipeline design considerations.
• Interpret hydraulic gradients and apply the core hydraulic and friction-loss equations.
