Why Choose this Training Course?
Why Choose this Training Course?
This training course will present the key activities involved in operation, control, maintenance and troubleshooting of gas compressors. These activities are vitally important for the efficient and safe operation of the plant.
This training course is intended to familiarize engineers, technicians and operators with compressor condition monitoring techniques which are used as a technical approach to failure prevention. The training course will also discuss vibration measurements and guidelines for preventive, predictive and corrective maintenance. Keeping compressor vibration under control makes a big impact on the long life of bearings, seals and other elements which improve compressor reliability and safety. The training course will provide the best practices for various maintenance techniques including overhauling and repair. Problem solving and troubleshooting techniques as well as the methods for extending the lifetime of equipment will be discussed and explained
The Petroknowledge training course will feature:
- Best practices for preventive, predictive and corrective maintenance
- Root cause analysis of compressor vibration
- Guidelines how to diagnose the level of deterioration of bearings
- Safe operation of compressors and driving machines
- Techniques for problem solving and troubleshooting
