COURSE DATA SHEET

Course Title: Understanding of Centrifugal Pump 

Theoretical course (100 %) Practical Course (%)

Course Duration (hours) : 2 days Course Code MRE-T-201

Objectives :

This is an intensive 2-day course providing a fundamentals of Centrifugal pump. The focus is on pump

selection – type in the process scheme in upstream and midstream oil and gas facilities. The material

of the course is applicable to field production facilities, pipelines, gas plants, and offshore systems.

The trainee will learn:

•  Selecting the appropriate pumps

•  Defining the major life-cycle events such as changes in flows, changes in fluid composition, and

changes in operating conditions that can affect pump selection and operating strategies.
