EE0331(OA1) : Control Panel Design & Construction

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.

Control panel design and construction in the oil and gas industry require precision engineering to ensure safe and efficient operation of critical processes. These panels house electrical and instrumentation components for monitoring, controlling, and automating systems such as drilling, production, and pipeline operations. Designed to withstand harsh environments, they must comply with industry standards like IEC, NEC, and ATEX for hazardous locations. Key considerations include explosion-proof enclosures, fail-safe mechanisms, and remote monitoring capabilities to enhance safety and reliability in upstream, midstream, and downstream applications.

This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Control Panel Design & Construction. It covers the the symbols and describe the abbreviations related to electric circuit drawing and control panel fault; the block, circuit, wiring diagrams and layouts; the circuit logic and analyze circuit drawings; the safe isolation procedures; the logical sequences in fault diagnosis and location; the insulation and continuity testing; and finding fault on a component system comprising of contractors, overload units, timers, relays, switches, breakers, motor starters, variable speed drives and fuses related to pumps, compressors and generators.
