Course Introduction

Process engineering covers a huge part in the operation of chemical, oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. Professionals involved in process engineering must have an in-depth understanding of engineering disciplines including mechanical, electrical and instrumentation, separation processes including distillation, heat transfer, hydraulics and fluid flow, process control and economics. These are the fundamental principles of process engineering. This training course is designed to provide participants with concepts related to the essential areas of process engineering that are most commonly encountered in the industry.


Course objective

  • Gain a comprehensive understanding of the essential and fundamental concepts of process engineering.
  • Know how to interpret flowsheets and process flow diagrams
  • Discover the distillation and separations used in oil and gas processing
  • Understand mass and energy balances in process design, fluid flow, pumps and compressors, and mixing.
  • Explore heat transfer equipment and their design, including heat exchangers
  • Learn how to effectively control processes
  • Identify the safety and environmental responsibility on process engineers
