For the successful operation of the LNG FPSO (FLNG) it is of vital importance to understand the process from well operation and subsea control, to separation, dehydration, liquefaction, storage and offload. This 5-day FLNG Operation and Maintenance training course focuses on in maintaining the high level of safety and security during the entire process.
This training course highlights the key technical challenges and risks associated the operation and maintenance of an FLNG. It will arm the participant with a wealth of knowledge to help them advance their project.
This training course will feature:
- Operation and maintenance – Guidance and General Requirements
- Environmental Influences affecting FLNG operation
- Gas treatment
- Liquefaction
- Storage requirements
- Offloading operations
- Control and safety systems
- Safety in operation and maintenance
By the end of this
course, participants will learn to:
- Identify the key operational requirements
- Recognize the effects of the ocean environment on FLNG operation.
- Understand tank cooling procedures and controlling the boil-off during tank filling.
- Interpret process plant behaviour
- Appreciate safety in operation and maintenance
