FUNDAMENTAL OF COMPRESSOR SYSTEM
Bandung | March 10 – 12, 2015 | Fee: at Proposal
OVERVIEW
This course will be deliver 3-day a comprehensive overview of centrifugal pumps and compressor systems. The focus is on equipment selection – type, unit and station configuration, integration of these units in the process scheme and control strategy in upstream and midstream oil and gas facilities. The material of the course is applicable to field production facilities, pipelines, gas plants, and offshore systems. WHO SHOULD ATTEND? Mechanical engineers, schedule and planning supervisors, maintenance managers, maintenance foremen and technicians, operating and maintaining pump and compressor systems in oil and gas facilities. COURSE OBJECTIVE This course aims at providing participants with the theoretical and practical aspects of operation and maintenance of all types of rotating equipment
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN ?
- Selecting the appropriate integrated pump and compressors units (drivers, pumps, compressors).
- Integrating the pump or compressor units with the upstream and downstream piping and process equipment.
- Evaluating pump and compressor units and their drivers in multiple train configurations – parallel and series.
- Identifying the key local and remote control elements of pumps and compressors as well as their drivers.
- Defining the major life-cycle events such as changes in flows, changes in fluid composition, and changes in operating conditions that can affect equipment selection and operating strategies.
- Assessing the key pump hydraulics and compressor thermodynamics and their affect on selection and operations.
- Identifying significant operating conditioning monitoring parameters and troubleshooting techniques.
