ABOUT THIS TRAINING COURSE
This 3 full-day course covers the design of systems for natural gas handling and
treatment from the wellhead to the gas processing plant to achieve marketable
products that meet desired product specifications.
This course will emphasize on field handling equipment and separation systems,
dehydration, fluid measurement, sampling and analysis as well as introduction
into reciprocating and centrifugal compressors. It will comprise interactive
presentations including exercises/quizzes.
This course can also be offered through Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT)
format.
Training Objectives
At the end of the course, the participants will be able to describe and explain
the following:
* Gas processing principles of dehydration (water removal) by absorption,
adsorption, refrigeration and low temperature separation (JT effect) and
basic associated equipment
* Gas processing in-depth by absorption using glycol and glycol proper (Pre-
Cooling requirements, Dew Point control and related processes). Glycol
regeneration including principles of stripping, DRIZO and Coldfinger.
* Process equipment involved for water removal by absorption. (Knock out drums;
Contactor - absorber and internals, heat exchangers, re-boilers, pumps,
filters and glycol storage).
* Principles of gas metering and types of meter (Measurement Units (MJ, BTU,
nM3, scf and conversions).
* Typical gas contracts & sales specifications.
* Gas pipeline operations.
Target Audience
Production and processing personnel involved with natural gas and associated
liquids to acquaint or reacquaint themselves with gas conditioning and
processing unit operations. This course is for production operations engineers,
operations field supervisors, facility engineers, process engineers, design
engineers, operations personnel and others who select, design, install, evaluate
or operate gas processing plants and related facilities.
Course Level
* Intermediate
