OIL PROCESSING AND TREATMENT

COURSE OVERVIEW & LEARNING OUTCOMES

Course participants are equipped with skills to recognize and develop solutions for operating problems in oil processing facilities. They also learn oil gas and water compositions and properties needed for equipment selection and sizing selection and evaluation of processes and equipment used to meet sales or disposal specifications. More importantly attendees learn to apply physical and thermodynamic property correlations and principles to the design and evaluation of oil production and processing facilities and how to perform equipment sizing calculations for major production facility separation equipment.
