Dear Zulfi,

Normally, in parallel with the P&ID preparation, we also prepare the line list that register all the line no, spec, size, fluid type, pressure, temp, etc. Can u obtain the line list?

What is the capacity or your Sulphur Recovery Unit (SRU). I’m from the refinery and we do have SRU. Just to check, which Licensor yu are planning to use i.e. Comprimo?

Thanks

Dear zulfi,
P&ID’s can not be used for planning. They are to show the process components.
To start ur planning you want piping layouts, piping GA’s.
where u can know the distances the diameters the leveles, undergrounds, above grounds.........

P&ID’s will help getting good idea about the subject. in rarely some cases u can create level 1 or 2 plan.
