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.
This course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed
and up-to-date overview of fired heaters, air coolers, heat
exchangers, pumps, compressors, crude desalter, pressure
vessels & valves operations. It covers the objective and
equipment layout of process equipment; developing of static
and dynamic head in the operating volume of pumps for
efficiency and control operation; the affinity laws as tools for
efficient operation, pump auxiliaries, wear components,
canned motor and magnetic drive pumps, flow pumps,
servicing and condition monitoring; the main features of
various types of compressors; the compressors classification
based on design and application; the types, styles and
configurations of centrifugal and axial compressors; and the
main elements of centrifugal compressor construction and
efficiency.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the
compressor operation; the fin fan cooler including its types,
operational efficiency and capacity control; the operation and
troubleshooting of cooler; the heaters and their types,
construction and operating parameters and inspection/testing
requirements; the types and basic parts of furnaces; the fuel
gas system of burners, gas burners, oil burners, flame
impingement, draft and observations during normal operation;
the heat exchangers, process vessels and valves; and the
troubleshooting of different equipment and processes.
