Why Choose this Training Course?

Why Choose this Training Course? 

Jet fuel is a type of aviation fuel designed to be used in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. Because the exact composition of jet fuel varies widely based on the petroleum source and type, it is impossible to define jet fuel as a ratio of specific hydrocarbons. Jet fuel is therefore defined as a performance specification rather than a chemical compound. In this Petroknowledge training course, the emphasis will be on jet fuel chemistry, manufacturing, specifications, handling, and troubleshooting techniques that would lead ultimately to improved fuel utilization, optimization, and enhanced organizational economics.

A case study approach covers some selected jet fuel specifications, sampling methodology, analytical methods, quality monitoring, pricing, and trading will be presented. In addition to the scientific procedures and contents of this training course, many real-life case studies and implementations are planned to be daily presented in an open discussion forum with the participants.

The Jet Fuel Specifications training course provides both theoretical and practical knowledge and skills highlighting:

  • Jet fuel chemistry and manufacturing technologies
  • Jet fuel specifications and quality monitoring system
  • Testing parameters for Jet fuel
  • Contaminants and jet fuel testing methods
  • Jet fuel Material Safety Data Sheet
  • Jet fuel additives
  • Effect of jet fuel properties on engine performance
