Training can be delivered either offshore or onshore at a location to meet our clients specific needs, or at our dedicated training facility located at Luanda, Angola, comprising a fully serviced training room capable of training up to 10 delegates at any one time.
To compliment our design & build capabilities, we offer bespoke training courses to our clients that enable their staff to:
- Understand the water treatment system process and its operability via the control system
- Understand the process technologies utilised in the water treatment system
- Understand the various modules that combine to provide the overall water treatment system and how they integrate to produce the required quality and quantity of water
- Perform day to day to day plant operations
- Conduct fault finding, analysis and key preventative maintenance activities required to ensure availability and longevity of the plant
- Understand the control system hardware and instrumentation
Training schedules are developed to cater for the diversification of the water treatment systems, which include the following or a combination of the following:
- Field Operations
- Control Room operations
- Process Technology (treatment systems e.g. SWRO)
- Automation (Software & Hardware)
- Membrane Fault finding
Onshore training in our training centre, based in Angola offers the following benefits:
- Reduces the requirement to have additional people on board who will not be contributing to the overall production process (minimises POB requirements)
- Delegates can focus on learning and not be called upon to assist with production requirements
- Larger number of delegates can be accommodated
- Ease of scheduling training and associated activities
- No requirement for hearing protection - improved communication and learning
The training room is complimented with a scaled version of an SRU/CIP plant which allows delegates to gain hands-on practical experience of loading and unloading membranes, membrane probing and performing Clean-in-Place (CIP) of membranes which is difficult to schedule when the training takes place offshore due to production requirements or in locations where no plant is available for practical training to take place. There is also a small laboratory where delegates can analyse water samples using similar equipment to that used offshore (e.g. Silt Density Index (SDI), Chlorine, Sulphate, etc.)
eLearning
eLearning modules can be provided though our HUBGRAGETM ASSIST package through our onshore AquaService solution.
Industry Drives for Digital Learning Solutions
- Globally many experienced personnel are retiring and leaving the industry creating complete shortfall in engineering skills
- Difficulty to retain knowledge after losing a contract and moving to another facility
- On FPSOs, it is very difficult to accommodate people and hence necessity to reduce People On Board (POB) and to enhance actual operators with multi-skills capabilities / competencies
Benefits of an eLearning Platform
- Continued "upgrade" of operators' knowledge and keeping pace with new trends and knowledge in industry
- Easier and continuous access to the knowledge base when needed in convenient way
- Smooth training as there is no necessity to mobilise the operators for the training but rather to incentive them to "train themselves" when they have time
