Pumps Operation, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting

COURSE OBJECTIVE
Participants will learn about pumps & their specific applications in refineries & chemical plants. They will also become familiar with the construction,
operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of different types of pumps along with their common failure scenarios. Finally, they will learn about
the pre-commissioning, commissioning, and start-up activities in the early engineering and construction phases.

PARTICIPANTS
The course is designed for Mechanical Operations/ Projects Engineers, Maintenance Engineers, and Reliability Engineers.

PREREQUISITES
B.Sc. in Engineering (Mechanical- Industrial-Marine)
Course participants should have a good background in mechanical engineering.
