COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical 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 participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of the operation of rotating machinery pumps, compressors, turbines and lubrication techniques. It covers the philosophy behind the specific rotating machineries selection to suit the process requirements; the rotating machinery technology which focus on major/minor parts of the specific equipment; the common/un-common problems and the structured way to identify the problem and the counter-measure; the various lubrication and sealing system; the details of how each and every parts of the equipment works in order to achieve its objectives; the common problems and troubleshooting; and the routine checks and analytical thinking of abnormalities
Further, the course will also discuss the centrifugal and positive displacement pumps; the technology of pumps; the start-up and operation monitoring of centrifugal and positive displacement pumps; the reciprocating compressor architecture; the technology of main components and ancillaries of reciprocating compressors; the influence of process condition on compressor performance; the flow control of specific safety devices and start-up philosophy; and the multi-stage centrifugal compressor.
