COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Gas Systems and Equipment – Basic. It covers the types of gases used in petroleum processes; the safety and regulatory considerations in gas handling; the properties of gases and their behavior, classifying gas systems in petroleum operations and the basic components of gas systems; the gas measurement and monitoring, safety considerations in gas systems and gas separation and conditioning equipment; the gas compression and booster systems; and the gas dehydration and water removal as well as gas sweetening and sulfur removal.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the gas cooling and heat exchangers, gas pipeline networks and design considerations; the gas flow control and regulation equipment; the instrumentation and control in gas systems and gas leak detection and emergency response; the gas compression and distribution safety measures; the gas usage in industrial applications, gas flaring and venting control; the LNG (liquefied natural gas) and CNG (compressed natural gas) systems; the maintenance strategies for gas equipment, safety drills and emergency preparedness in gas facilities; and troubleshooting common gas system problems.
