About this course

After completing this course the student should be able to operate rotating equipment, evaluate the use of heat exchangers and explain the different types ofvalves and seals used in process installations. They will also be able to operate process equipment for oil and gas treatment, use relevant simulation programs and describe gas-drying methods.

Completion of common course subjects – Level 1 – or equivalent qualifications are recommended. Completion of Process Systems 1 is an advantage. Practical experience from process installations offshore or heavy onshore mechanical industry is an advantage.

This web-based course is in accordance with the guidelines from The Norwegian Oil Industry Association and covers the official Norwegian syllabus for Technical College, Petroleum Technology Faculty. The course is equivalent to 73 hours of normal tuition
in this subject.
