As refiners and chemical producers worldwide see higher crude oil and feed prices and continued demand for clean energy and lower production costs, a sound knowledge of Hydro processing for clean energy design, operation, and optimization is essential.
Refiners are facing a dynamic business environment. Crude prices are volatile. Heavy, highsulfur and acidic opportunity crudes are increasingly available. Demand for lighter products is increasing; product legislation and emissions standards are tightening; and health, safety and environment mandates also have to be met. This necessitates that refiners are now required to reduce the products sulfur content before it can be sold and satisfy market demand of lighter products. This is most commonly done by hydroprocessing. Hydrotreating and hydrocracking processes share many common features, so they often are discussed together as “hydroprocessing” . Hydrotreating removes contaminants from distilled crude oil fractions and intermediate process streams. Hydrocracking converts heavy oil fractions into lighter, more valuable products.
For refiners to sustain their profit margins, economical access to state-of-the-art technology is a must. Hence, this course is designed to provide in depth practical review of all hydrotreating and hydrocracking processes key variables that affect product yields,properties, catalyst issues, reaction mechanisms, process design, operation, control, troubleshooting and optimization. Several significant product quality specifications (for instance, 10–15 ppm sulfur in diesel and gasoline), nitrogen and aromatic content, cetane number, API gravity, smoke point, cold flow properties such as pour point, cloud point and cold filter plug point and many other topics will be deeply discussed in this course.
A framework is presented for troubleshooting operating problems and, throughout this discussion, participants are encouraged to describe their specific challenges.
This course will feature:
Group activities (workshop) on process design, operation, maintenance, inspection, control and optimization.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
This course is intended for anyone who takes part in the Hydroprocessing facilities in oil refining and petrochemical industries or who helps decide Hydroprocessing investments.
The course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit to:

A highly interactive combination of lectures and discussion sessions will be managed to maximize the amount and quality of information and knowledge transfer. The sessions will start by raising the most relevant questions, and motivate everybody find the right answers. You will also be encouraged to raise your own questions and to share in the development of the right answers using your own analysis and experiences. Tests of multiple-choice type will be made available on daily basis to examine the effectiveness of delivering the course. Very useful Course Materials will be given.
