Industrial Equipment Operation & Troubleshooting

Introduction

Industrial equipment is the heart of plant operations. Whether in Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Energy, Manufacturing, Utilities, or Heavy Industry, equipment performance directly impacts production, safety, reliability, and cost efficiency. Operators, technicians, and engineers must understand how equipment works, how it behaves under different conditions, and how to diagnose faults quickly and accurately.

This course equips participants with essential knowledge of industrial equipment operation, performance monitoring, failure modes, troubleshooting logic, and maintenance fundamentals. It focuses on pumps, compressors, heat exchangers, boilers, turbines, hydraulic systems, and other critical plant equipment.
