Process Plant Optimization Technology and Continual Improvement

Energy and Reliability Indicators

Course Overview

Process Plant Optimization plays a crucial role in today’s industrial landscape. To achieve meaningful optimization benefits, production costs, including operational downtime, must be minimized. This requires effective management of maintenance operations as well as optimizing equipment reliability and plant availability. It also involves implementing strong inspection and maintenance strategies and planning methods. Plant optimization can significantly contribute to enhanced profitability.

An essential component of process plant optimization is managing energy consumption and reducing energy use. Industrial processes and systems offer considerable potential for cost savings. Additionally, process improvements such as advanced controls and the adoption of new technologies create opportunities for further optimization.

This Energy Process Plant Optimization Technology and Continual Improvement training course will offer a comprehensive review of various aspects of process plant integrity, laying the foundation for sustainable plant profitability and optimization.
