Introduction

The initial start-up of any plant, irrespective of size, type, or industry, is a unique occurrence. Therefore, start-up poses some special problems. Lack of experience in dealing with these problems has frequently resulted in prolonged and costly startups. This course will provide guidelines for all those involved in the execution of a project on how to achieve a successful plant start-up. The requirements for start-up-oriented thinking at all stages of the project, from engineering to commissioning, will be demonstrated.

The course material covers estimating of start-up costs, personnel requirements, and resources. It defines the vital role of project management and plant personnel in the preparation and planning for successful start-up of any process plant. Emphasis is on effective planning and use of available resources, both material and manpower.

Objective

Upon completion of this course, you will gain knowledge of the problems and their sources, associated with first-time start-ups. You will have the necessary skills for anticipating and avoiding financial, technical, operational, and organizational problems associated with start-up.

The greatest benefit arises from the application of these start-up-oriented ideas throughout a project, beginning at the conceptual phase. The practical techniques and examples provide useful insights that are valuable at any stage of project execution and preparation for start-up.

Methodology

Our courses are highly interactive, typically taking a case study approach that we have found to be an effective method of fostering discussions and transferring knowledge. Participants will learn by active participation during the program through the use of individual exercises, questionnaires, team exercises, training videos and discussions of “real life” issues in their organizations.
The material has been designed to enable delegates to apply all of the material with immediate effect back in the workplace.
