Description

The Oil and Gas Separation Design training course is designed to provide the harmony of theoretical knowledge behind oil and gas separation principles and practical guidelines (specifically, API 12J) for vertical and horizontal separator design.Oil and gas separation is a common technique in upstream oil and gas wells, where crude oil and natural gas are often found in the same well. Oil and natural gas have different density levels, so mixing them together can cause problems down the road. Oil and gas separation allows for these two products to be distinct from one another. Process equipment companies in the oil and natural gas industry use a number of equipment units designed to separate, or "separate," crude oil from fluids involved in the production of oil. Oil and gas separation is done by physical means, not chemical means. The training course goes over the following topics, in 40 lectures and 5 practice sessions with 4 hours of video training material:Principles of Separation TheorySeparation MechanismsPhase DiagramsVapor-Liquid Equilibrium Theory and CalculationsRaoult's Law and Antonie EquationBubble and Dew Point CalculationsFlash CalculationsClassification of Oil and Gas SeparatorsInternal Structure of SeparatorsSeparator Internals (Inlet Device, Mist Extractor, Vortex Breaker, etc.)Separator Design (API 12J Process Considerations)Vertical Separator DesignHorizontal Separator DesignCommon Separator Design ErrorsOperating Challenges in Gravity SeparationThe above essential topics have clearly been discussed during the course. This training can be really helpful for students, engineers, and even teachers aiming to deliver the essentials of multicomponent distillation from the engineering point of view. By spending only 4 hours, you can really understand the whole topic and further do practical calculations. The course instructor does also provide the service of answering questions for all course participants for free.
