By the end of this course delegates will be able to:

• Provide basic understanding of laboratory analyses and techniques applied.
• Provide good knowledge of the chemical reaction in refinery processes.
• Provide a good grasp of the techniques used for interpreting the laboratory results.
• Provide an understanding of the evaluation method to diagnose the condition of the refinery.

The course is designed for new chemists, technicians and engineers who work in refinery laboratories and operation, process, maintenance and planning sections. The course is also useful for experienced chemists, technicians and engineers who wish to refresh their knowledge.
