COURSE OVERVIEW

This practical and highly-interactive course includes real-life case studies and exercises where participants will be engaged in a series of interactive small groups and class workshops.
Plant utilities or offsites are a vital service to the operation of process plants and oil/gas processing facilities. Unfortunately, they are all too often ignored until they cause problems. It's too late to start thinking about them when the plant/facility gets hit with a major derating or outage that could have been avoided.
This course is designed to provide an up-to-date overview of the various offsite and utility systems. It will cover the key selection considerations of the utility systems and how they are integrated into process plant or oil/gas facilities. Participants will develop a basic understanding of the wide variety of utility systems and components. The course will discuss how the offsite and utility system integrate with the process facilities and overall operation.
The course will cover the offsite and utility systems selection, costs and other managerial decisions pertinent to utility operations. Case studies and exercises will be used to demonstrate the application of key design and troubleshooting considerations.
During this highly interactive course, participants will be involved on hands-on practical sessions to select sites for high level utility systems. They will design various utility systems and learn the key elements affecting the operation, maintenance and troubleshooting such systems.
