ITREQ-EN-P
Who should attend?
This course provides a deep knowledge of the role and operating conditions of specific equipment used in various processing plants as well as a better understanding of process users: their processes, vocabulary, work environment, etc.
Public :
Engineers and/or technicians. Suppliers or subcontractors of the Oil & Gas processing sector or the refining and chemical industry.
Level :Awareness
Prerequisite :
No pre-requisistes are necessary to follow this course.
Course Content
This program is made up of 3 modules that can be separately delivered and adapted to the equipment studied (Furnaces - Heat Exchangers - Pumps - Compressors - Dryers or Filters). The duration of this training can thus vary from 4 to 6 days in order to meet your expectations.
EXAMPLE OF COURSE CONTENT RELATED TO COMPRESSORS
For each unit, the following items are discussed:
Role and principle of the process, simplified process flow diagram, role of the compressor in the process.
Normal operating conditions and impact of various modifications on the operation of the compressor.
Particular operating conditions: shutdown, start-up, regeneration of the catalyst, decoking, etc.
