Course Overview

Petroleum refineries transform crude oil into petroleum products. This can be used as transportation fuels, heating fuels, road paving, and electricity generation fuels. These are also utilized as feedstocks for chemical manufacturing. Refining makes sure that crude oil is separated into its constituents. These are then selectively reconfigured into new units of use. The energy sector is constantly evolving, spanning everything from power plant operations to petrochemicals such as oil and natural gas, as well as renewable energy sources.

What does a refinery process operator do?

Oil refinery operators are responsible for ensuring that unit and process systems operate effectively daily. Personnel safety is their major goal, and they ensure that industrial processes are safe. They constantly monitor instrumentation and equipment operation, making modifications to keep system process variables within acceptable ranges. Oil refinery operators also detect prospective and real faults and take corrective measures to keep the system running.

What skills do you need to work in a refinery?

This Zoe training course will provide newly hired personnel with the skills and information required to work as oil refinery operators in the energy industry. Taking an oil refinery operations course will provide you with the confidence to excel successfully in this industry. Refinery operators must comprehend the ideas of plant efficiency and the reliability of the equipment used in refinery operations. Furthermore, the management of a refinery plant necessitates technical knowledge, and plant operators must be properly prepared to perform their key functions in an efficient and ecologically friendly manner. Exposing these individuals to refinery plant concerns, as well as their implications for energy savings and equipment integrity, would be a better way to boost refinery returns.

 Course Objectives

The prime objective of this training course is to empower professionals with:

  • Understanding of raw materials, refinery equipment, and operations involved in the refining industry
  • Complete knowledge and information about crude oil specifications and product specifications
  • The complete skillset and capabilities to understand basic stages of refining to ensure smooth operation
  • Instrumentation involved in petroleum systems and the operation of equipment such as exchangers and separating units
  • Operators will get an insight into keeping process variables, such as flows, temperature, and pressure within acceptable ranges
  • To create the basis of applied physics and fundamentals regarding the processes involved in petroleum refining
  • Enable applicants to detect problems, analyze trends and take timely action when needed
  • Required confidence to maintain communication with other operators, maintenance personnel, and management to ensure safety
  • Comprehensive insight into the operation of centrifugal pump, issues associated, and required skills to mitigate them
  • Thoroughly understand the processing of oil, distillation technology, and process instrumentation and control
  • The required experience and confidence to handle emergencies and take correct timely actions to prevent damages
  • Recognition of environmental impacts associated with petroleum pump systems
  • Examine relevant risks and identify hazards to ensure compliance with safety guidelines in the refining industry

Training Methodology

Zoe offers training courses across a vast range of topic. Training is delivered by experienced professionals from the relevant domain. Part of the training is delivered as classroom sessions, and part is through practical exercises. Trainees are assigned projects and tasks in groups, encouraging interaction among trainees and between the trainer and the trainees. Role-plays are also introduced as part of the training, wherever applicable.

This training format was conceptualized by Zoe Talent Solutions and is used for all its courses. It is called the Do–Review–Learn–Apply Model.
