      • Average client rating (based on 23 attendee reviews)

    The course is an intensive review of the natural gas compression and transport system. Special emphasis is focused on the collection of data and its evaluation using a process simulator. This course also discusses the design, selection and maintenance of the above mentioned equipment.  The course provides exercises along with the use of software to solve operational problems in the production and processing of natural gas in the most effective and reliable form.

    Limitations of the procedures in making calculations for design and operation specifications will be discussed. The participants will learn how to work more efficiently using commercial software
