processsim

We have a suite of mobile laptops that can travel anywhere, that we use for our process simulator training : we can travel globally to deliver our training. From awareness & introductory level for anyone, to complex offshore models we can cater for all. The process simulators ‘standard’ models cover:

• Basic Control Principles
• Complex Control Principles
• Basic Plant Subsystems
• Basic Plant Systems
• Complete plants -onshore or offshore

Steady state operations on process plant prevents many technicians/supervisors from learning basic start-up and shutdown procedures and processes, as well as maintenance isolations and fault finding. Our simulator based training allows delegates to work on process plant with total safety and freedom exploring areas such as alarm, trip & ESD envelopes. The simulator environment allows the instructor to introduce faults, providing delegates with experience and confidence to approach on-plant activities.

Within the training room we can provide training and assessment from basic systems through to complete plant start-up / shutdown and fault finding. The basic models take ~3 hours per candidate, with complex training courses lasting several days.

We provide multiple short courses on basic control principles to build up knowledge, which are used in the bigger simulators. For example the PID Level Control model consists of a liquid vessel with single feed and exit streams. The feed to the vessel can be varied by opening an additional feed stream. The vessel is open topped and will overflow if overfilled.  A control valve on the exit line is used to set the liquid level in the vessel. A THREE term controller is used to control the valve position. Other short courses include flow pressure & level control, temperature across an exchanger , direct and cascade control and basic pump systems.

Our courses build up from the basic Systems to major systems such as Centrifugal Compressor, Reciprocating Compressor, Basic Turbine, Oil Pipeline
