All those working on process plants who are familiar with the general purpose of process measuring instruments and control equipment. This will include process operators and trainee instrument technicians and engineers on all types of oil, gas and chemical plants. This short intensive course is aimed at operators, technicians and engineers who are currently employed in these industries and require further information on the equipment that they will use.

This interactive Training will be highly interactive, with opportunities to advance your opinions and ideas and will include;

• Lectures
• Workshop & Work Presentation
• Case Studies and Practical Exercise
• Videos and General Discussions

1) THE CONTROL LOOP: Function and constitution of control loops and on/off control systems, Pneumatic, electrical and digital control loops. Power supply, signal transmission (tubes, cables, bus, optical fibers,) and conversion. Tags and symbols.

2) SENSORS: Accuracy and tuning of measuring devices.

3) Temperature measurement: temperature scales, non-electrical thermometers, electrical measuring devices.

4) Pressure measurement: measurement units, devices for local reading or for transmission, pressure gauge installation.

5) Flow measurement: measurement units, head meters, other principles and devices: electromagnetic and ultrasonic meters, vortex effect, Coriolis Effect.

6) Level measurement: level glass, float-actuated and displacer devices.

Other principles and devices: radioactive, capacitance, ultrasonic and radar devices, differential pressure cells.

7) Safety devices: two-position sensors, position sensors, temperature and pressure sensors.

8) TRANSMITTERS

• Pneumatic transmitters: transformation of force into a pneumatic signal and amplification, technology and transmitter tuning - Operation of the sensor-transmitter combination.
• Electric and electronic transmitters: operating principle of strength equilibrium and displacement transmitters.
• Digital and programmable transmitters.

9) CONTROL VALVES

• Linear displacement valves: technology, different plug types, characteristic curves (linear, exponential and quick opening), safety position (AO, AC, FC, FO…).
• Positioners: operating principle, types (pneumatic, electro pneumatic,..).
• Other types of control valves: simple and double seat valves, cage valves, “Complex” type valves, tree-way valves,
• On/off sensors: position sensors, electro-valves,
• Safety valves: types, simple and double actuators,

10) CONTROL LOOP IMPLEMENTATION

• Simple, override, and split-range loops.
• Fractionation, calculated variable, feedforward control systems.

11) DISTRIBUTED CONTROL SYSTEM (DCS)

12) SAFETY SYSTEM LAYOUT

• Network architecture and constitution - Examples.
• Emergency Shut-Down (ESD) systems: role, examples of typical architectures.
• Fire and gas system: role, typical arrangements.
• High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS): role, specificities, typical arrangements.

BTS attendance certificate will be issued to all attendees completing minimum of 80% of the total course duration.
