Day 1

Process Engineering Fundamentals

Establish the core chemical engineering principles and equipment types used in oil and gas processing.

8 hours 3 modules
Module 1

Thermodynamics & Fluid Mechanics

  • Phase behaviour and VLE: bubble point, dew point, and flash calculations
  • Equations of state: SRK, PR, and their applicability
  • Pressure drop calculations: Darcy-Weisbach and Moody chart
  • Two-phase flow: flow regimes, void fraction, and pressure gradient
Module 2

Separation Processes

  • Two-phase and three-phase separators: sizing criteria and internals
  • Gas scrubbers and knock-out drums: droplet separation mechanisms
  • Distillation fundamentals: theoretical plates, reflux, and McCabe-Thiele
  • Absorption and stripping: gas treating and dehydration towers
Module 3

Heat Transfer Equipment

  • Shell and tube exchangers: TEMA types, rating, and fouling
  • Air coolers: fin geometry, fan sizing, and control
  • Fired heaters: radiant section, convection section, and thermal efficiency
  • Plate heat exchangers: compactness, fouling, and cleaning requirements
Practical Workshop

Process mass balance exercise: groups complete a steady-state mass balance around a three-phase separator and gas compression train to verify stream compositions and flow rates.

Day 3

Process Optimisation & Troubleshooting

Apply systematic methods to optimise plant performance and resolve process upsets.

8 hours 3 modules
Module 1

Performance Monitoring & KPIs

  • Process performance indices: throughput, conversion, selectivity, and yield
  • Statistical process control (SPC): control charts and capability indices
  • Data reconciliation: gross error detection and balance closure
  • Energy efficiency: specific energy consumption and heat integration
Module 2

Systematic Troubleshooting

  • Troubleshooting framework: symptom, hypothesis, test, and solution
  • Material and energy balance as a diagnostic tool
  • Equipment performance curves: pump, compressor, and column maps
  • Process simulation for fault isolation and scenario testing
Module 3

Process Optimisation Methods

  • Operating window optimisation: sensitivity analysis and constraint identification
  • Pinch analysis: heat integration and minimum utility targets
  • Advanced process control (APC): benefits, structure, and implementation
  • Debottlenecking: incremental capacity analysis and economic ranking
Practical Workshop

Process troubleshooting case study: given a set of plant data showing off-spec product and production shortfall, teams diagnose the root cause and propose corrective actions.

Day 5

P&ID Development, Simulation & Digital Process Engineering

Apply P&ID standards, simulation tools, and digital process engineering concepts.

8 hours 3 modules
Module 1

P&ID Standards & Design

  • ISA 5.1 symbology: instruments, control valves, and vessels
  • P&ID hierarchy: BFD, PFD, and P&ID development and revision control
  • Hazardous area classification on P&IDs: zone boundaries
  • Tie-in management: existing P&ID revision and brownfield redlines
Module 2

Process Simulation Tools

  • Steady-state simulation: flowsheet building, convergence, and validation
  • Physical property package selection: NRTL, SRK, and PR EOS
  • Dynamic simulation: process upset analysis and control tuning
  • Simulation case studies: gas treating unit and crude distillation column
Module 3

Digital Process Engineering

  • Digital twin for process optimisation: real-time model updating
  • AI and ML for fault detection: anomaly detection in process streams
  • Cloud-based process simulation and collaborative engineering platforms
  • Remote operations centre: integration of process monitoring and control
Practical Workshop

Process design review: teams evaluate a provided preliminary P&ID and process simulation model, identify operability and safety issues, and present a structured design review report.

The course outline is indicative. Content may be adapted to reflect current industry developments and delegate experience levels.
