About the Course

Course General Description
Designed and provided by Petrogav International Oil & Gas Traning Center, this course is suitable for any one who wish to start their career in the oil and gas industry. For a better understanding of the course you need to be familiar with common terminology used in oil and gas industry and with upstream, midstream and downstream sectors.
This course reviews the basics of spill control response principles, organization, procedures, and equipment used. Attendees will be introduced to evaluation of spills, organization of response and communications, surveillance and tracking, data records and information. Acid gas removal is an important gas conditioning step that is required for natural gas streams that contain moderate to large amounts of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. The treated gas specification depends upon the downstream requirements. These competencies set the base knowledge that is required for a successful career as an entry level facilities engineer, seasoned operator, and / or field supervisor. These modules provide an understanding of common terminology, hydrocarbons and their physical properties, qualitative and quantitative phase behavior, hydrates, and fluid flow. In addition, they provide a systematic approach to understanding the common types of equipment, and the primary unit operations in both offshore and onshore gas conditioning and processing facilities. After all various components and procedures are discussed, the information contained in morning reports is explained and used as a summary of the course content.

Target Audience
This course is suitable for any one who wish to start their career in the oil and gas industry, entry level oil and gas engineers, service and support personnel, production operations personnel, production office support staff and participants with or without a technical background.
