LNG Facilities for Operations and Maintenance - OT-43
Program Overview
This 5-day LNG facilities course provides an in-depth overview of field operations, equipment, and processes, including the AP-C3MR and ConocoPhillips Optimized Cascade Process. Participants engage in exercises that apply theory to real-world scenarios, fostering proficiency in problem identification and troubleshooting.
Program Outline
Outline:
This 5-day, LNG facilities course provides an overview of field operations, and an in-depth review of the in-plant equipment and processes. The course includes the two most common types of LNG liquefaction processes, the AP-C3MR and ConocoPhillips Optimized Cascade Process. Class exercises/problems focus on the application of theory to operational trends, so operators can understand their processes and become more proficient at identifying issues and troubleshooting problems before production suffers.
Course Content:
- Overview of oil and gas processing
- Separation equipment
- LNG feed quality requirements
- LNG pre-treatment systems (AGRU / molecular sieve / Hg removal)
- Fundamentals of centrifugal compression
- Refrigeration principles (propane, cascade and mixed refrigerant)
- NGL stabilization and fractionation (regional)
- LNG COP Cascade Process Overview
- LNG APCI C3MR Process Overview
- LNG storage operations and considerations
- LNG shiploading operations and considerations
- Boil-off gas management methods
- Gas turbine fundamentals
- Hydrocarbon physical properties
- Phase behavior fundamentals
