Refineries and gas processing facilities will benefit from our practical on-site training. We train your sulfur recovery system operators and engineers to operate your unit more safely and cost effectively. We help your personnel learn to handle upsets for amine treating and regeneration, sour water treating, sulfur recovery and tail gas treating units. Because our classes are practical and specific to the units in your plant, your operators will better understand the “basics of operation” and will gain the confidence needed to “think on their feet.”

Process monitoring and control strategies are discussed and operators learn how to anticipate and deal with upsets.

Benchmarks for operating amine units, developed by the Amine Best Practices Group, show that by moving from fourth to first quartile operation can save over $1.5 million per hear for a nominal sized unit. When your personnel are properly trained, it helps them prevent costly mis-operations relating to off-spec product and compliance issues. It will also save your company time and money. BSDT Training Seminars meet the training and re-training criteria established by OSHA 1910.119 and include documentation, testing and certification.

BSDT Seminars has no link to vendors, and represents no technology so your seminar is not a sales pitch. The mix of technology and operating know-how will be tailored to your needs: train operators or engineers or both. The emphasis of the seminar is on how to do it and why.

BSDT Seminars, a better way to train your operating personnel:

A number of seminar package options are available. The standard package includes a half-day preliminary visit to your plant’s sulfur recovery facilities and a review of your typical operating data. This allows the seminar to focus on your flow sheet and your real-world problems. Trouble shooting examples address your plant issues, and equipment or procedural suggestions are worked out for your specific process flow. This package also includes a written report of the significant issues raised by your personnel during the seminar. Seminars can be repeated as needed to ensure all your operators get the same training.

The sulfur recovery seminar package includes sour water treating, amine treating, sulfur recovery (Claus®), and tail gas treating.
