Design Hub teaches oil and gas design the way it is done on real projects: from the code clause to the number on the datasheet. Free videos on YouTube, short paid courses with 2 free preview lessons each, free calculators, and interactive 3-D Labs you can operate.
Who makes Design Hub
Design Hub is made by a practising oil and gas design engineer with more than 15 years of experience in process and mechanical design: separators, flare systems, pressure vessels, skids, piping and instrumentation. Every lesson, Lab and calculator comes from that work: the same checks, the same codes, and the same mistakes we have seen in the field.
The DesiGn HuB YouTube channel started in 2016 with P&ID and piping isometric tutorials and has grown to about 74,000 subscribers.
Engineering you can check
- Every number names its basis: the code and clause (ASME VIII Div. 1 UG-27, API 520, API RP 551 and so on) is shown next to the result.
- Every calculation is worked by hand and checked in a separate script before it goes into a video, a course or a Lab.
- Every Lab challenge is tested by a bot: it must fail when ignored and pass when operated correctly.
- Teaching models are labelled as teaching models. Use your own code edition, company practice and a qualified engineer for real designs.
How the videos are made
Our videos are faceless. Narration is a synthetic voice, and the numbers are checked by a process engineer. 3-D models and animations are made for each lesson.
What we do not do
- No invented student counts, ratings, testimonials or client logos.
- No client, employer or project names: examples are described by equipment type and region.
- Nothing is marked free unless it is free.
Found a mistake?
Tell us through the contact page. We correct the lesson, the Lab or the calculator and note the change.
