Process Plant Optimization, Revamping and Debottlenecking

The optimisation of process plants requires effective management of maintenance operations and equipment, along with plant reliability and durability. The main aim of a revamp is to improve basic parameters like volume or processing efficiency. Revamping and debottlenecking require flexibility in planning and proficiency in the right engineering gear. Therefore, to optimize and maintain the fundamental performance of a unit, this program is important to take you beyond a surface level of study.

Overview

Introduction

This training program provides participants with a comprehensive overview of the principles and practices involved in optimizing, revamping, and debottlenecking process plants within the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries, including design, storage facilities, and inventory management, understand utility management, and expand your knowledge on optimisation, revamping, and debottlenecking process plants. Through interactive sessions and practical case studies, participants will gain valuable insights into the strategies, methodologies, and tools utilized to enhance efficiency, increase throughput, and improve overall plant performance.
