Course Overview

There is an increased demand for clean fuel worldwide as refiners and other partners such as chemical producers witness higher oil and feed prices.

What is clean fuel technology?

To lower the skyrocketing cost of production and transportation of fuel, a sound knowledge of clean fuel, standards, and technology is essential for monitoring and analysing the fuel produced and understanding its side effect on engine performance with all the environmental impact it will have.

This course is prepared with the intention to help the participants thoroughly understand the practicals and science behind producing clean fuel, standards, and technology in the field of oil and gas and modern refineries. It is prepared with wide, deep, and comprehensive content that will give the participant a cutting-edge advantage in the field. In combination with the heavy scientific content and procedures used in this course, there will be a lot of practical exercises and case studies that will be interrogated, and it is intended to be very engaging.

This Zoe course will highlight the following; jet fuel standards and specifications, fuel quality basics, fuel quality analysis and monitoring, gasoline specifications, diesel standards and specifications, Euro 5 and 6 fuel standards and specifications, and fuel production standards and technologies.

What are examples of clean fuel?

Projects that are designed and run in the oil and gas field face a lot of challenges in this era, and the efforts and requirements to deliver standard projects in the industry have grown to be more challenging.

The challenges of successfully running a fuel project are getting complex every day with complex technological solutions and compressed schedules, budgets, and cost-efficiency. It is therefore important for participants to take this course to understand how fuel projects are designed and run successfully.

You will learn how to measure the standards of various fuel products and understand the chemistry behind all the fuel products to uphold standards. Delegates will understand the various examples of clean fuel and can expand their range of options for this purpose.

Course Objectives 

At the end of this course, the participants will have learned to:

  • Discuss different methods and techniques used in fuel quality monitoring systems
  • Compare each unique testing parameter for different types of fuel such as gasoline, road diesel, and jet fuel
  • Describe in depth how chemistry is used in clean fuel for manufacturing and maintaining standards and technologies
  • Troubleshoot and efficiently identify various quality problems and possible contamination in different fuel types
  • Explain with understanding the impact contaminated fuel and other properties of fuel have on engine performance
  • Explain and illustrate the impact of ultra-low sulphur diesel on fuel performance

Training Methodology

This course is facilitated by experts and industry best experts in their relevant fields. It will be highly interactive with lectures and both individual and team discussions. The amount and quality of the information provided will be of very high standards. Participants are highly encouraged to be active participants during the presentations. Case studies and illustrations will be highly employed together with short videos.

In the end, participants are expected to have received very thorough training on the main topics covered by the facilitators using unique and well tested, and proven methods. Zoe uses the ‘Learn-Review-Apply’ training model in all their courses to optimise learning.

Organisational Benefits

Organisations that will let their professionals undergo this course stands to benefit in the following ways:

  • They will have professionals who understand key concepts and methodologies for refining thoroughly and processing petroleum to produce high standards of clean fuel manufacturing economics Therefore, this kind of knowledge can be tapped into to improve the overall refinery production costs and performance
  • The organisation will highly benefit from the skill gained in distribution, blending, clean fuel chemistry, handling, and troubleshooting methods that will ultimately lead to better and enhanced organisational economics with optimised and improved fuel utilisation
  • Different aspects of clean fuel projects and management will be improved, including monitoring, analysis, and safety of fuel
  • Better management of fuel production by well trained and experienced professionals
  • Regular training of other employees on the international standards and practices in the fuel production
  • Increased credibility to the organisation for adhering to international standards and concepts of fuel production
  • Application, implementation, and use of advanced technology and concepts to increase the levels of cleanliness in fuel
  • Better prediction and assessment of the quality of fuel

Personal Benefits

Professionals who will undergo this course will benefit by:

  • In-depth understanding and wide knowledge of fuel quality
  • Expertise to efficiently conduct a “fuel efficiency” audit of the organisation they are working for
  • Increased skill sets and capabilities to develop and maintain fuel efficiency program coordination and evaluation tools
  • A sense of pride for contributing towards the credibility and customer satisfaction of the organisation
  • Ability to reduce operational expenses and increase on-time performance
