For refiners to maximize their profit margins, increasing the value of refinery products derived from the bottom of the crude oil barrel by delayed coking process is essential. This "Delayed Coker Processing" program has been developed to provide an in-depth yet practical review of art and science of the current Delayed Coker process technology. Typical design, operation, control, troubleshooting, process variables, and process optimization are emphasized. The course discusses the normal daily operations of the Delayed Coker unit and the best practices used to monitor normal operations. Through lectures, team works and exercises, participants will be able to troubleshoot common Delayed Coker unit upsets.

This course will feature:

Lectures/discussions on Delayed Coker process technology, roles and techniques for improving process operations, designs and applying optimization techniques.
Open discussion on the latest development on the applications of Delayed Coker.
Actual troubleshooting case studies
Group activities (workshop) on process design, operation, maintenance, inspection, control and optimization.

Objective

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

Gain in-depth knowledge of the exact role of Delayed Coker units regarding to feeds and product's characteristics.
Analyze the importance and impact of operating parameters on the process operations.
Identify common potential incidents, their origin, consequences on safety, health and the environment.
Understand process design and operation variables on product quality.
Apply mass/energy balance for Delayed Coker unit.
Identify unit-specific problems and describe typical solutions.

Audience

This course is intended for anyone who takes part in the Delayed Coker units in oil refineries or who helps decide Delayed Coker investments. The course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit to:

Refinery operation managers
Process Engineers and technologists
Operation engineers
Shift team leaders
Maintenance Engineers
Plant Engineers
Inspection engineers
All professionals involved in refinery process unit operations
Anyone who wishes to update himself on the methods used in this important field
