Udemy – Petroleum refining demystified – Oil & Gas industry 2021-4

Petroleum refining demystified – Oil & Gas industry, This course is designed to provide you with a complete understanding of the crude oil refining industry and breaks down for you all the major refining processes into easily digestible concepts using extensive graphics, process layouts and various manufacturing schemes. You will first get a quick overview of the petroleum industry to put things into perspective before your journey begins. Then you will discover the different types of crude oil, their composition and the chemical properties of their hydrocarbon components and how refiners separate these molecules using a process called distillation. You will also learn the major conversion processes used to upgrade petroleum cuts into better quality blending components for the production of gasoline, diesel, heating oil and heavy fuel. You will learn how these products are made from crude oil and discover their associated manufacturing processes.

What you’ll learn

• Comprehend the basic differences between exploration, refining and petrochemicals
• Understand the basics of the various refining processes
• Learn what crude oils are made of and understand the chemical properties of their hydrocarbon components like paraffins, naphthenes, aromatics…
• Learn how the refining processes work & interact with each other (distillation isomerization alkylation catalytic reforming hydrotreater sulfur plant…)
• Understand how the main petroleum products are made (LPG, gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, heating oil, heavy fuel, asphalts, lubricants…)
• Appreciate that aromatics are important to the petrochemical industry even though refineries are trying to minimize these in gasoline due to their toxicity
• Appreciate that olefinic and aromatic petrochemical precursors are specialty chemicals produced by the refining processes

Who this course is for

• Students in chemical engineering, refining, petrochemicals…
• Newly-hired refinery or petrochemical plant personnel and current semi-technical personnel who require further training
• Engineers (chemical, petrochemical, petroleum, process…)
• Refinery operators and technicians
• Support personnel of an oil company including maintenance, logistics, supply chain, sales, marketing, quality…
• Other support staff who have an interest in increasing their understanding of petroleum refining
• Non-technical professionals assigned to positions in refineries
