IE0057 : Maintenance & Calibration of Field Instruments in Oil & Gas Industry

 

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

The course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Maintenance and Calibration of Field Instruments in Oil and Gas Industry. It covers the importance of instrumentation in process control and role of calibration in maintaining system integrity; the purpose of calibration and the difference between calibration and verification; the instrument components and types covering transmitters, controllers, switches, indicators and control valves and actuators; the calibration tools and equipment, maintenance and precautions; the health, safety, environment (HSE) in calibration; and the calibration documentation, pressure instrumentation and temperature instrumentation. 

 

Further, the course will also discuss the flow measurement instrumentation, level measurement instruments and field calibration procedures; the analytical instruments in oil and gas, control valves and actuators, loop calibration, tuning, smart instrumentation and HART protocol; the proper calibration in hazardous areas; and the common instrument faults. 

 

 

During the interactive course, participants will learn the use of calibration data for trend analysis; the condition monitoring techniques and proper maintenance planning and scheduling; the instrument diagnostics and testing, calibration intervals and frequency; the  root cause analysis of calibration failures; the calibration standards and procedures; the  internal and external audits and mock calibration tests; the importance of integrity in calibration practices; and the consequence of non-compliance, professional responsibilities of authorized personnel and best practice for ethical documentation.
