COURSE OVERVIEW:

This comprehensive course on Gas Process and Equipment Design focuses on interpreting, reviewing and enhancing design specifications for gas systems and associated process equipment. It provides a structured view of how gas streams are treated, conditioned, compressed, cooled, dehydrated and transported, and how the key items of equipment are selected, sized and integrated into an overall process design.

Participants will examine typical gas processing schemes, including separation, cooling, gas compression, gas treating, dehydration and export systems. Emphasis is placed on the process engineer’s role in defining design bases, reviewing vendor packages and ensuring that equipment designs meet safety, operability, reliability and performance requirements. Practical exercises and case studies will allow participants to apply design concepts to real projects and existing facilities.

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

After completion of this course, the participants will be able to:

1. Explain the key principles and terminology of gas process and equipment design across the main sections of a gas system.
2. Interpret and review gas system design documentation, including design bases, process flow diagrams, heat and material balances and equipment datasheets.
3. Apply practical gas process design techniques to the selection and conceptual sizing of separators, heat exchangers, compressors, treating units and dehydration systems.
4. Develop strategies for effective implementation of gas systems and equipment design, ensuring safety, operability, flexibility and maintainability are addressed.
5. Identify common design deficiencies and integration issues in gas systems and equipment and propose practical improvement and optimization measures.
6. Understand the latest trends and best practices in gas process and equipment design, including energy efficiency, environmental performance and digital support tools.

TARGET AUDIENCE:

-Process engineers involved in gas processing, gas plants and gas handling systems

-Design and project process engineers working on new facilities, debottlenecking and revamp projects

-Operations and plant engineers who review or interface with gas system design and modifications

-Senior and junior process engineers supporting compression, treating, dehydration and export systems

-Technical support, optimization and process safety engineers who assess gas system design adequacy

TRAINING COURSE METHODOLOGY:

A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions, as well as case studies, will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information, knowledge, and experience transfer. The course will be intensive but practical and highly interactive. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions and motivating everybody to find the right answers. The attendants will also be encouraged to raise more of their questions and to share in developing the right answers using their analysis and experience. There will also be some indoor experiential activities to enhance learning. Course material will be provided in PowerPoint, with necessary animations, learning videos, and general discussions.

The course participants shall be evaluated before, during, and after the course.

COURSE CERTIFICATE:

National Consultant Centre for Training LLC (NCC) will issue an Attendance Certificate to all participants completing a minimum of 80% of the total attendance time requirement.
