This 4-day course provides an overview of electrical power generation and distribution. Process and safety systems instrumentation, and control strategies and configurations. The focus is on application and integration into the process and control of upstream and midstream oil and gas facilities. The material of the course is applicable to field production facilities, pipeline, gas plants and offshore systems.

CONTENT

• • Key electrical power considerations and fundamentals applied in oil and gas facilities.
  • Voltage level and power type (3 phase, single phase, and direct current) selected and application.
  • Purchased power considerations including generation efficiency, redundant sources, transmission grid parameter, and cost considerations.
  • Electric power distribution, system loads, internal grid layout, major distribution equipment and cabling.
  • Power users definition and integration into the power distribution system.
  • Electrical system safety
  • Process systems operations and the key characteristics, and measurement needs, as well as techniques to measure and control.
  • Control modes and their applications, communications requirements, and the operator and computer controller interface.
  • Interrelationships between process, equipment, instruments and controls.
  • Field (facility) control and monitoring system such as pressure and level indicators and controllers
  • Field (facility) safety monitoring and response system including SIS, HIPPS and emergency shutdown valves.
  • System-wide considerations including communications, local control, remote control, and data management and use.

FOR WHOM:

Managers, Engineers, Technicians and System Operators requiring a broad understanding of instrumentation, control and electrical systems in Oil and Gas Facilities.

TRAINING METHODOLOGY
