Mechanical engineering is one of the largest, broadest, and oldest engineering disciplines. It deals with the principles of energy, materials, and mechanics to design and manufacture machines and devices of all types. They create the processes and systems that drive technology and industry. All industrial systems cannot do without mechanical engineering.

This five-day course is prepared to provide non-mechanical personnel who have an engineering background, with a guide to the fundamentals of mechanical systems. This course focuses on engineering considerations. This course will focus on four areas: key mechanical engineering principles, rotating equipment, stationary equipment, and interfaces with other aspects of a facility, such as process, electrical and structural systems. This course is intended to pave the way to more detailed courses.

Oil and gas industry highly depends on a lot of mechanical equipments such as pipes, vessels, boilers, towers and others, non mechanical technicians and engineers in the that field must understand the mechanical equipments and how they work and their functions. The course covers the fundamental technology of machines, in terms of how they work and how they fail. It addresses wear and fatigue related failure mechanisms, and the role of lubrication. The interaction of the machine with the process is discussed, and the need for maintenance and condition monitoring personnel to work more closely together is demonstrated. The course includes an introduction to condition based maintenance and condition monitoring, and in this respect it aims to dispel rumors and demonstrate capabilities.
