Process Plant Operations

Duration: 5 Days

The Process Plant Operations training program provides participants with a thorough understanding of the principles, systems, and practical aspects involved in operating industrial process plants safely and efficiently. The course is designed for professionals working in the oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical, power, and water treatment industries who need to develop or enhance their operational knowledge and skills.

Objectives

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
  • Understand the overall structure and operation of process plants.
  • Identify key process equipment and their functions.
  • Interpret process flow diagrams (PFDs) and piping & instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs).
  • Apply safe operating procedures during start-up, normal operation, and shutdown.
  • Recognize and respond effectively to abnormal plant conditions.
  • Implement good maintenance coordination, and communication practices.
  • Optimize plant performance while ensuring safety, reliability, and compliance.

Audience

This course is suitable and will especially benefit:
  • Process Operators and Technicians
  • Control Room Operators
  • Maintenance and Support Personnel
  • Field Engineers and Supervisors.

Methdology

Facilitated by an experienced TRAINER, our program will be conducted as a highly interactive work session (as opposed to lectures), encouraging participants to share their own experiences and apply their learnings to real-life situations. Each delegate will receive an extensive reference manual, as well as case studies, while worked out solutions will be handed out to the delegates on conclusion of group discussions. This training course is designed to be a hands-on exciting & learning experience.

Certificate

Participants who successfully complete the required contact hours will be awarded a Certificate of Completion.
