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 Steam Generation and Distribution Operations. It plays a critical role in enhancing production efficiency, facilitating thermal processes and supporting various industrial applications. Steam is primarily generated in high-pressure boilers using fuels such as natural gas, crude oil or refinery byproducts. It is then distributed through an extensive pipeline network to drive steam turbines, assist in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques like steam injection, power distillation columns and support heating and cleaning processes.
Proper management of steam pressure, temperature, and condensate recovery is essential to optimize energy efficiency, minimize heat losses and ensure safe operations. Effective water treatment, boiler maintenance and system insulation are key to preventing scaling, corrosion and operational downtime, making steam distribution a vital component of oil and gas processing facilities.
