Overview
With the recent decline in global oil prices, new and existing developments are focusing on efficiency in both design and operations. Flow Assurance can bring a wealth of system understanding and opportunity for reduced OPEX and CAPEX. Our program will be able to address one of the most critical challenges faced by producers in assuring oil and gas flow through complex and costly subsea tiebacks.
Learning Objectives
Improved Understanding of Flow Assurance
Improved understanding of what flow assurance is and some of the associated challenges it must address in the current climate
Optimize the Production System
Optimize the production system by understanding system risks and appropriately manage these operational risks
Effectively Manage Flow Assurance Issues
Effectively manage flow assurance issues within a project environment through the understanding of key interfaces of flow assurance systems holistic Approach to Flow Assurance System Design
The focus is very much on the practical aspects of Flow Assurance in managing interfaces with subsurface and surface engineering disciplines to ensure a holistic approach to system design and in the identification of risks and opportunities for risk management for the safe and effective life of field operation.

Accreditation
Al-Khobraa certified. On completion delegates receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of achievement.
What do Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum courses cover?
The portfolio spans the full value chain: upstream exploration, drilling and well control; midstream processing, pipelines and gas treatment; and downstream refining and petrochemicals — plus process safety management (PSM), HAZOP studies, corrosion control and plant operations. Trainers are practitioners from the sector.
Who should attend an oil, gas and petroleum course?
These courses suit process, production and petroleum engineers, plant and field operators and supervisors, maintenance and inspection staff, HSE and process safety professionals, and technical or commercial staff joining the sector from another industry.
How long are oil, gas and petroleum courses, and where are they held?
Most Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum courses run over 5 days. The exact duration, dates and city for this course are listed in the dates section on this page. Public sessions run across Saudi Arabia — Riyadh, Jeddah, Al-Khobar, Jubail and Yanbu — as well as regional and international venues, with live virtual classrooms available on request.
What certificate will I receive?
Delegates who complete the course receive an Al-Khobraa certificate of completion, issued by a Saudi-registered training provider. Al-Khobraa also delivers internationally accredited programmes; where a course carries an external awarding body such as PMI, CIPS, ILM or IOSH, that body is named on the course's own page.
Can oil, gas and petroleum training be delivered in-house for our team?
Yes. Any Al-Khobraa oil, gas and petroleum course can be delivered in-house at your own premises anywhere in Saudi Arabia or the GCC, with the content, dates and language of delivery tailored to your team. Al-Khobraa is an approved HRDF (Hadaf) provider, so eligible Saudi employers can seek training support. Contact us for a quotation.
