Gas Conditioning and Processing
About the course
Knowledge of how the natural gas and NGL (Natural Gas Liquid) fractions are obtained from the raw oil and gas mixture is a key asset for those working in the Oil and Gas Industry.
This training course focuses on the process aspects of gas processing and conditioning, and also includes steps to help in troubleshooting the key units in the plant. The participants in the course are taken through the plant, starting with the raw product and ending with the separated natural gas and NGL fractions. In between the stabilization, gas treatment, dehydration and fractionation units will be explained.
The course is formed of 8 sessions split across 4 training days. All courses will be live sessions with the instructor. All training materials will be available through your EngineeringTrainer account. After the course you maintain 1-year unlimited access to the course material. This allows you to perform courses again when you need to refresh the knowledge for your projects.
This training course is also available as a company in-house training, there is a choice between an online training or an onsite training.
