Suitable For

The course is highly recommended for Process Operators and those who are doing operation activities.

• Operators
• Process Operators
• Ideal for those who want to get the concepts basic knowledge and experience of booster station gas dehydration units.
• Other operators desire a better understanding of gas operation principles.

Training Methodology

A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions, and motivate everybody find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences.  Tests of multiple-choice type will be made available on daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course.

Very useful Course Materials will be given.
