Surface Equipment - Maintenance and Operation

Mechanical, Maintenance & Reliability · 5 Days · Public · Al-Khobraa certified · From USD 3,900

Overview

This is a comprehensive course aims at providing participants with working knowledge in the design considerations., operation and troubleshooting of all processes & equipment used for the handling & treatment of liquid and gaseous effluents coming out from the oil wellheads through gathering centers & booster stations to transmission lines.

Learning Objectives

• Be able to define the properties of the oil well products & effluents & their discharge environment constraints.
• Learn the principles of gaseous & liquid types flow and to relate these principles to the necessary piping systems designing & materials.
• Be aware of well technology, equipment / manifold and artificial lift including the principles of pumps, compressors, separators, heat exchangers & valves.
• Understand the fundamental principles of processes in gathering centers such as oil /gas/water separation, well testing, water injection, produced water treatment, gas dehydration and sweetening.
• Review the appropriate instrumentation and automatic. Control of all these processes and other necessary equipment such as flare system, drains, blowdown, compression, condensate recovery & meeting.
