HYSYS

The industry standard process modeling application for simulation and optimization in the petroleum and oil & gas industries.

HYSYS is an integrated steady-state and dynamic process simulation application that brings new levels of productivity and profitability throughout the plant lifecycle. HYSYS helps engineers to create simulation models for: Plant design Performance monitoring Troubleshooting Operational improvement Business planning Objectives Learn to build, navigate and optimize process simulations using Aspen HYSYS Learn the efficient use of different HYSYS functions to build steady state process simulations Course Benefits Discover how the key features of Aspen HYSYS allow rapid flowsheet construction and its intuitive, bi-directional calculations Use the WorkBook and Process Flow Diagram (PFD) interfaces for quick and effective modeling Customize the WorkBook to track additional stream and operating parameters

 Evaluate the performance of existing equipment with the Rating function Improve the convergence performance of a simulation, troubleshoot common problems Who Should Attend New engineering graduates/technologists who will be using HYSYS in their daily work Process engineers doing process design and optimization projects and studies Plant engineers checking plant performance under different operating conditions R&D engineers and researchers using HYSYS for process synthesis Approach Instruction on basic topics Discussion about the general approach and the key elements for successful simulations Instructor-guided demonstrations of features Hands-on workshops using examples from the natural gas processing industry Detailed course notes

Prerequisites A background in chemical engineering or industrial chemistry Suggested Subsequent Courses Advanced Process Modeling using Aspen HYSYS

HAZOP

Systematic technique to IDENTIFY potential HAZard and OPerating problems A formal systematic rigorous examination to the process and engineering facets of a production facility

 A qualitative technique based on guide-words to help provoke thoughts about the way deviations from the intended operating conditions can lead to hazardous situations or operability problems HAZOP is basically for safety - Hazards are the main concern - Operability problems degrade plant performance (product quality, production rate, profit) Considerable engineering insight is required - engineers working independently could develop different results.
