EE0764 : VSD, Motors, SCADA, FAT & Electrical Safety

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of VSD, Motors, SCADA, FAT and Electrical Safety. It covers the basic principles of VSD and its applications in oil and gas production; the types of motors used in the industry including power ratings and efficiency; the advantages of using VSDs in oil and gas operations; the components of electrical power generation and distribution; the various techniques for optimizing motor power consumption and reducing energy losses in VSD and motor systems; and the maintenance strategies for VSD and motor power systems.
Further, the course will also discuss the VSD for centrifugal pumps, compressors and other equipment; the basic architecture of SCADA systems; the role of SCADA in oil and gas operations; the SCADA communication protocols, data acquisition and control and system security; analyzing SCADA data for performance improvements; the predictive maintenance using SCADA data; the key elements tested during factory acceptance testing (FAT); and developing FAT procedures and checklists.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the testing of transformers, switchgear and motors; the VSD and motor FAT procedures; the FAT procedures for SCADA systems and generating FAT reports and documentation; the electrical safety regulations and standards, hazardous area classifications and equipment safety requirements in hazardous areas; the electrical inspections, safety audits, electrical isolation and lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures; the personal protective equipment (PPE) for electrical work; the emergency response and electrical incident management; integrating VSD and SCADA for enhanced control; and the electrical system reliability and performance monitoring, fault detection, protection and optimization.
