Process Control & Instrumentation
Program Overview
Reliable measurement and control keep process plants safe, stable and efficient, and instrument problems lie behind many trips and quality upsets. This course covers process measurement of pressure, temperature, flow and level; transmitters and analysers; control valve selection, sizing and diagnostics; feedback, cascade, ratio and feedforward control; PID tuning; DCS and PLC architectures; communication protocols such as HART and Foundation Fieldbus; safety instrumented systems under IEC 61511; alarm management following ISA-18.2; and P&ID symbols to ISA-5.1. Examples come from oil, gas and petrochemical units in the Gulf, including control loop troubleshooting cases.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Select suitable measurement technologies for pressure, temperature, flow and level in given process conditions.
- ✓Size a control valve and select its characteristic, actuator and fail-safe position.
- ✓Configure feedback, cascade, ratio and feedforward strategies for typical process units.
- ✓Tune PID loops using a structured method and assess loop performance.
- ✓Distinguish basic process control from safety instrumented functions under IEC 61511.
- ✓Diagnose common loop problems such as valve stiction, poor tuning and measurement noise.

- Instrument and control engineers and technicians
- Process engineers and plant operators

Training Methodology
Applied Project & Assessment
Applied Project
Participants analyse a provided control loop dataset from a Gulf process unit, identify measurement, valve and tuning issues, propose an improved control strategy and tuning parameters, and document the required instrument changes on a marked-up P&ID.
Assessment
Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
