1 SmartBrains Institute of Oil and Energy Oil & Energy Process Design Engineering What You Will Learn... Overview of Industry and role of a Process Engineer in various fields. Basic design requirements based on the types of plants / projects. Overview of Basic Engineering Package. Introduction to PFD, P&ID and PDS of equipments. Relevant Codes and Standards used in industry. Development of PFD: Process & Utility. Mass and Energy balance - Design Basis, Sample Calculations and Utility Sizing. Interlocks, Control. Philosophy, Valves Selection and sizing, Safety valves sizing. Development of P&ID: Process and Utility, Line Sizing & Pressure Drop Calculations. Pump Selection and sizing. Heat Exchanger Design (Thermal Design). Distillation Column Design. Available Software used in industry and their applications. Personality Development & Mock Interviews preparation.

2 Course STRUCTURE Opportunity in Designing field to a fresher is very scares but Smartbrains is the institute which give plateform to learn and explore new things in designing Ankit Kumar S.N. Consultant, Noida Oil and Gas Fundamentals General Industry Overview And Basic Concepts Meaning of petroleum Typical oil & gas company objectives Typical oil & gas company activities Industry streams Typical organisation chart Company structures Oil & Gas Production Facilities Typical oil production facilities Artificial lift systems Crude treatment and processing Natural gas processing Typical LNG value chain Gas added value products Offshore facilities Crude Oil Refinery Products And Processes Refinery configuration Crude oil refining process Refinery yields by crude type Refinery margins Factors affecting refinery margins Refinery margin calculations Engineering, Procurement & Construction Contracts In Oil & Gas What Is An Epc Contract? How does the risk allocation on an EPC contract compare to other construction contracts? To what extent does an EPC contract guarantee the project essentials: a fixed price, time and quality? Why would you choose an EPC contract as opposed to other forms of contract? Will the use of an EPC contract mean that the works cost more? The bankability of an EPC contract The EPC contract within the overall structure of a project: the various entities and the other project documents Split EPCs: Onshore/ Offshore Different models for contract risk allocation Contract jargon: Lump sum, turn-key, EPCM, EPCC. cost-plus, reimbursable The Tender & Procurement Process The procurement time-line: From inception to contract finalisation Procurement options: e.g. one or two stage tendering, preferred bidders The way in which procurement regulations can restrict and limit tendering options Design development in the context of procurement: Incorporating a Front End Engineering and Design (FEED) stage Transparency and comparison between tender figures Structuring the contract price: lump sum stage payments and milestones

3 The Scope Of Works Ensuring that the scope of works achieves the owner's objectives The reasons why changes are required to the scope of works and what can be done to ensure that the contractor takes the risk of the additional costs Risks associated with the transition from the design to on-site construction The impact of unexpected site conditions on the contractor's ability to construct the scope How should the contractor's design responsibilities be defined? The need for the owner to approve the contractor's designs and the degree to which this will lessen the contractor's single point responsibility What is the appropriate level of construction and design risk for the contractor to take? Fluid Flow and Heat Transfer Fluid Flow in Piping Fluid Flow Basics Incompressible Flow Compressible Flow Two-Phase Flow Line Sizing Criteria Heat Transfer Conduction» Thermal Conductivity» Two-Dimensional Steady State» Transient Convection» Internal Flow» Condensation» Two-Phase Flow» Boiling Radiation Process Design Engineering Introduction to Process Engineering Process Engineering Refining Overview Hydrocarbon Process Examples Typical Refinery Block Diagram Typical Refinery Processes Process Engineering Nature of Design Process Engineering Applications Design Operation New Plant Revamp Process Equipment Resources/Tools Process Work Flow Process Calculations Rigorous Empirical Short-cuts Simulation Software Engineering Flow Diagrams Block Flow Diagram PFD P&ID Process Control Diagram System Distribution Diagram Plot Plan and Elevation Drawings Pumps and Pumping Systems Types of Pumps Reciprocating Rotary Centrifugal Performance Characteristics - Curves, System Hydraulics, Affinity Laws, Capacity, Turndown, Sparing Key Design Parameters - Capacity Factors, Properties, Head, NPSH, Horsepower Calculation Methods and Examples Impellor Compressors Compressor Categories and Types Positive Displacement - Reciprocating, Rotary Screw Dynamic - Centrifugal, Axial Compression Process - Adiabatic, Isothermal, Polytropic Compressor Characteristics - Performance, Terminology, System Curves Key Compressor Parameters - Capacity, Gas Properties, Head, Compression Exponent, Temperature Rise, Efficiency, Power Requirements, Affinity Laws Compressor Control Surge Staging Drivers Design Issues Performance Specification Rotary Compressors
