Petroleum Instrumentation and Measurement

Petroleum Instrumentation and Measurement

2 hrs. Online Course

Level: Fundamental

Item#: RV-10343

SME: Noman Farooq

This course is designed to convey the basics of oil and gas instrumentation and measurement (primarily downstream) to the construction professionals and learners. Oil and gas operations have a sensitive and critical importance as it deals with very high pressure, temperature and extreme natural conditions. So for a new person in this field, it is essential to have sound theoretical knowledge about measurement instruments and measuring techniques before getting started practically. Its importance in this regard is undeniable. In the oil and gas industry, safety is the first preference. If a person possesses superficial knowledge and understanding of equipment and instruments, he/she may not be recommended for any field work. This course is important to impart basic knowledge of process variables measuring instruments and their measuring techniques which we use in oil and gas downstream. It also conveys the knowledge of process control automation and control valves.
Course Objectives
At the conclusion of this course, you will be able to:
  • Describe the importance of instrumentation and measurement in the oil and gas industry.
  • Explain process control and its implementation in oil and gas downstream.
  • Explain the pressure measurement and pressure measuring instruments used in the oil and gas industry.
  • Describe the level measurement and level measuring instruments used in the oil and gas industry.
  • Explain the flow measurement and flow measuring instruments used in the oil and gas industry.
  • Explain the temperature measurement and temperature measuring instruments used in the oil and gas industry.
  • Explain the importance of final control elements in oil and gas downstream.
  • Explain the how control valves work.
