Course Description
This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
The course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed and up-to-date overview on the operation of the hydrocarbon process equipment that includes fired heaters, air coolers, heat exchangers, pumps, compressors, crude desalter, pressure vessels and valves.
It covers the characteristics of crude oil and function of chemicals used in the process such as composition of petroleum, hydrocarbon properties, salt concentration and emulsions.
At the completion of the course, participants will be able to apply oil treating; dehydration and desalting; process and equipment operations; and employ the sequence of desalter plant start-up.
The course will also cover the different types and function of direct fired heaters; safety aspects; air coolers; heat exchangers; pumps; compressors; process vessels; valves; and troubleshooting of different equipment and processes.
