EEE 130 - Instrumentation, Controls and Electrical Systems for Facilities Engineers
This course provides an overview of electrical power generation and distribution, process and safety systems instrumentation, and control strategies and configurations. The focus is on application and integration into the process and control of upstream and midstream oil and gas facilities.
Course Objectives
- Defining fundamentals parameters for electrical power usage and generation such as voltage levels
- Using safe practices such as hazardous area definition and circuit protection
- Defining what to measure, why measure a parameter and how to measure
- Determining and using the many control strategies and equipment
- Identifying equipment and instrument characteristics
- Defining and integrating components into systems
- Developing electrical power demand (load) lists, one-line diagrams, and the selecting and integrating power distribution systems
Who Should Attend?
- Engineers
- Technicians
- System operators
- Anyone who aspires to increase his capabilities in instrumentation, control, and electrical systems in oil and gas facilities
