Process Plant Start-up, Commissioning & Troubleshooting

Start-up and commissioning of new process plant or refurbished process plant presents both technical and management challenges. The start-up of plant is always a unique occurrence, and lack of experience in dealing with related snags will result in commissioning delays and financial loss. Successful commissioning of process plant involves all the activities from preparation to post-commissioning. Unanticipated events during start-up & commissioning, along with inherently hazardous conditions, require extra preparation and effort to avoid safety incidents.

PROCLAD Academy’s Process Plant Start-up, Commissioning & Troubleshooting training course provides guidance for the necessary preparation required to achieve a successful plant start-up and commissioning. Start-up oriented thinking at all stages of the project from engineering to commissioning is the first step in proper preparation. The training course will define and illustrate the vital role of project management and plant personnel, and also provide a review of techniques and examples to develop troubleshooting skills.

The key features of PROCLAD Academy’s Process Plant Start-up, Commissioning & Troubleshooting training course are:

  • A complete overview to the start-up and commissioning of process plant
  • Anticipation and avoidance of problems associated with start-up processes
  • An understanding of the commissioning strategy and organisational issues
  • Estimation of resources, mechanical integrity, trouble shooting and safety

Gas Processing & Gas Conditioning

Since its discovery, natural gas has become an indispensable fuel source throughout the world. Natural gas used by consumers is much different from the natural gas that is extracted from underground up to the wellhead. Gas processing and conditioning separates contaminants to make it suitable for use. The process and equipment varies widely depending on the desired specification and applications of gas. The knowledge on handling issues in gas processing and conditioning will determine the productivity, safety and profitability.

PROCLAD Academy’s Gas Processing & Gas Conditioning training course will cover the major technical aspects. This training course will provide participants with the knowledge and tools to determine the main properties of natural gas, separation, dehydration, sweetening, measuring and transportation. Emphasis on the plant and equipment design and operation will be addressed that will allow participants to identify key variables. All of this will result in an increase of the effectiveness of the personnel, reduction of operation costs, and optimization of the performance of gas processing and conditioning.

The key features of PROCLAD Academy’s Gas Processing & Gas Conditioning training course are:

  • Assess various problems induced by unwanted elements in natural gas streams
  • Master gas treatment processes, operations and related operating conditions
  • Perform calculations for summary design of main gas processing equipment
  • Ascertain operating problems in gas processing & conditioning, and related solutions
  • Simulate natural gas treatment processes

Hydrocarbon Production Operations

A wide range of oilfield production handling and treatment equipment are utilised during exploration and production. The Hydrocarbon Production Operations training course will provide the participants with an integrated view of the oil & gas production and related facilities. It will also present an understanding of the wide range of the hydrocarbon production handling and treatment equipment.

PROCLAD Academy’s Hydrocarbon Production Operations training course will also provide the participants with an overall understanding of the fluid behavior inside the reservoir, through the downhole tubular and the processing facilities.
