Course Overview
Deferred maintenance and deferred decisions on refinery energy efficiency both accrue interest. In energy operations the cost of getting the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations wrong is measured in downtime, and sometimes in lives. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations, ready to be adapted internally. It concentrates on the parts of refinery energy efficiency that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make this strand of energy and hydrocarbon operations hard in practice. Participants who influence the energy and hydrocarbon operations capability without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Buying a tool rarely fixes refinery energy efficiency; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The most reliable predictor of sound this aspect of energy and hydrocarbon operations is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. Participants leave with a plan for the practice within energy and hydrocarbon operations sized to what their organisation can realistically absorb.
