PKD Teaches Oil and Gas Pipeline Fundamentals January 25 and 26

Attendees at the class included employees of Centurion, ConocoPhillips, Enterprise, LOOP, Solomon & Associates, Telvent, and Myoco Supply.   Comments include the following:

  • Maintenance module - Very interesting to see the tools, technology, and methods used.  Smart pigs are cool.
  • Economics module - For someone without a background in finance and economics such as myself, this knowledge is very useful in creating business cases and evaluating ROI for our customers.
  • Construction module - Very good pictures.  Really helped me understand.
  • Economics module - Best short, understandable description of MLPs I have ever heard.
  • Hydraulics module - The "hydraulic tools" section was very interesting.  This will be helpful in conversing with our engineering staff as we discuss business planning.
  • Energy Pipelines module - Good mix of maps, pictures, and explanation.
  • Leak Detection module - Upset scenarios were really good.
