Process Plant Shutdown, Turnaround, Troubleshooting, Critical Activities, Isolation, Start Up & Commissioning
Program Overview
Turnarounds are among the largest and riskiest events in a process plant's life, concentrating a huge number of activities, contractors and hazards into a short window. This course covers the full turnaround cycle: scope definition and freeze, work-list challenge, planning and critical path scheduling, cost estimating and contractor strategy, energy isolation, blinding and permit-to-work, confined space and hot work controls, critical activities such as heat exchanger and column work, troubleshooting emerging problems, pre-startup safety review, commissioning and safe start-up. Gulf refinery and gas plant examples show how disciplined preparation reduces overruns and start-up incidents.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Define and freeze a turnaround scope using risk-based work selection and a formal challenge process.
- ✓Develop a turnaround plan and critical path schedule with resource levelling.
- ✓Prepare an isolation and blinding plan with permit-to-work controls for a process unit.
- ✓Identify critical activities and define specific controls for high-risk work.
- ✓Apply structured troubleshooting to emerging problems during shutdown and start-up.
- ✓Conduct a pre-startup safety review and prepare a commissioning and start-up sequence.
Target Audience
- Turnaround managers, planners and coordinators
- Operations and maintenance superintendents
- Process and mechanical engineers supporting shutdowns
- HSE professionals and permit coordinators

Training Methodology
Applied Project & Assessment
Applied Project
Participants prepare a turnaround readiness package for a selected unit at a Gulf refinery or gas plant: a scope list with justification, a high-level schedule and critical path, an isolation plan, critical activity controls and a pre-startup safety review checklist.
Assessment
Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
