The Topsides Processing systems carry out a number of critical functions such as:
Separating Oil & Gas fluids
Treating the Oil to Export Specifications
Treating Gas to Export Specifications
Cleaning Produced Water for disposal
Preparation of the Seawater for Pressure maintenance Injection
Provision of Utilities for the Processing and Living requirements
All the equipment and their functions are packaged into modules which make up the whole topsides processing plant. The equipment must work safely and effectively under a range of conditions including start-up and bad weather conditions at the Field location.
This 3-day course will demonstrate how the equipment is integrated in the layout on the facility deck. It is illustrated with FPSO process equipment, but is not limited to Floating systems.
The presentations are supported by many videos representing Topsides Process activities from around the world.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, the participants will be able to:
Understand the different types of Reservoir Fluids and their properties.
Provide examples of processing specifications of the Reservoir fluids for Export or Disposal.
Gain an understanding of the functions of the main topsides processing and utility systems and the different process modules.
Acquire knowledge of the particular needs of a processing plant on a fixed platform compared to a Floating host.
Understand the stages in Topsides Commissioning.
