FIVE Zurich Hotel (or equivalent hotel)
See our homepage for more detailed information about these NTUiTiV Differences.
A comprehensive 5-day programme designed for engineers and technical professionals in the energy sector. This course takes you through the full lifecycle of natural gas: from field extraction and separation, through dehydration, sweetening and compression, to NGL recovery and pipeline delivery. Combining technical lectures, equipment design workshops, and real-world case studies, you’ll build expert-level insight into every stage of gas production and processing.
End-to-end field exposure: Gain clarity on upstream and midstream processes to enhance operational insight and decision-making.
Equipment & design competence: Technical rigour in separator sizing, compressor selection, and dehydration system design is vital for efficiency and safety.
Market & quality compliance: Understanding gas conditioning standards ensures pipeline integrity and commercial value, especially for LPG/NGL markets.
Engineers and technical leads in oil, gas, LNG and NGL processing operations
Maintenance, production and commissioning engineers responsible for field and processing plant performance
Project engineers and consultants designing surface facilities and treatment schemes
Risk, Quality and HSE professionals overseeing extraction, processing, and delivery standards
Wellhead & separator fundamentals: operation and design of vertical, horizontal, two and three-phase separators
Dehydration technologies: principles, sizing, regeneration and troubleshooting of glycol and desiccant systems
Gas sweetening methods: remove acid gases (CO₂, H₂S) to meet quality/spec and safety thresholds
Compressor systems & energy calculation: process gas compression design and energy optimisation
Pipeline & instrumentation practices: system design, flow measurement and integrity control
NGL & LPG recovery: recovery principles, cryogenic vs absorption techniques, condensate stabilization
Hydrate management: predict hydrate formation, apply methanol injection and temperature control strategies
Integrated process workflow: connect all stages—production, processing and delivery—for seamless operation
Omar, Production Engineer – Energy Company
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)
“I learned how to size and design separators correctly—crucial for my new field project. The hands-on workshops were immensely useful, and I plan to use the dehydration system calculations to optimise our current plant.”
Aya, Project Engineer – LNG Facility
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)
“I enjoyed the compressor energy calculation sessions and gas sweetening modules. The insights into pipeline metering will directly improve our startup procedures.”
Chris, HSE Supervisor – Gas Processing Plant
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5/5)
“The hydrate control and methanol injection training was very practical. I plan to apply these methods to reduce production downtime and improve safety protocols in our operations.”
