Process Engineering Career: Design Documents & Activities video course download, Understand the role of a chemical process engineer in a typical oil, gas, chemical, petrochemical plant project design. Chemical engineers have an essential role in the design, engineering, and operation of chemical plants, petrochemical facilities, oil and gas refineries, and other process industries. The role of a process engineer is crucial as they are responsible for process design, sizing, and ensuring the necessary requirements of plant components, such as equipment, piping, and instruments are met. Based on the requirements of a process engineer, the detailed design, material specification, and purchasing are carried out by various engineering disciplines such as piping, civil, mechanical, electrical, and instrumentation engineers.
