Oil Production
and Processing Facilities

Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training Course provides a complete and structured overview of how oil and gas are produced, processed, and prepared for downstream use. The training introduces participants to the full journey of hydrocarbons—from exploration and discovery through to production, treatment, transportation, and refining—ensuring a strong foundation in both surface operations and key industry systems. This course helps participants understand the behaviour of crude oil and natural gas, the function of production equipment, and the operational challenges encountered across onshore and offshore facilities.

During this Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training, participants explore essential production handling systems, including wellhead operations, fluid separation equipment, produced water treatment units, and water injection systems. The course also highlights performance optimisation strategies, helping delegates appreciate how operational decisions affect production quality, system reliability, and downstream product readiness. With insights into emerging technologies shaping modern facilities, the course ensures learners stay informed about evolving industry trends.

This Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training Course blends technical concepts with practical learning. Real-world examples, equipment-focused explanations, and guided discussions help participants build confidence in analysing operations, recognising facility components, and applying troubleshooting techniques. Whether new to the industry or expanding existing knowledge, participants gain valuable skills that support professional growth and improved operational performance.

This Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training aims to strengthen participants’ understanding of oil and gas production systems, surface facility operations, and the processing technologies that support product quality and safety.

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the origins, chemistry, and fundamentals of oil and gas formation.
• Recognise operational challenges across the oil and gas life cycle and relevant safety considerations.
• Navigate key stages of exploration, production, transportation, and processing.
• Comprehend the structure of the full oil and gas value chain.
• Understand essential treatment and refining processes for crude oil and natural gas.
• Apply improved troubleshooting approaches to production and processing systems.

This Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training Course is designed for professionals involved in production operations, engineering, facility design, and technical support across the oil and gas industry.

It is ideal for:

• Chemical and mechanical engineers supporting facility performance.
• Process technologists working with production systems and treatment equipment.
• Facility and inspection engineers responsible for operational integrity.
• Maintenance and project engineers overseeing modifications and upgrades.
• Operations and laboratory chemists analysing fluids and production behaviour.
• Technicians, support engineers, and engineering trainees entering oil production roles.
• Consultants and sales professionals supporting oilfield technologies and services.

This Oil Production and Processing Facilities Training is delivered using a combination of expert presentations, real-world examples, and interactive learning. Participants benefit from clear technical explanations supported by videos, case studies, and structured group activities that reinforce understanding of surface facilities and processing concepts.

The presentation approach includes:

• Instructor-led sessions supported by diagrams and workflow illustrations.
• Case studies that highlight operational challenges and facility performance.
• Group exercises to encourage collaborative problem-solving.
• Short videos demonstrating equipment behaviour and process sequences.
• Workshops and open discussions to strengthen critical thinking and practical application.

• AZTech Certificate of Completion for delegates who attend and complete the training course
