Pipeline Control Room Training – Where It All Happens

Forming part of a control room management (CRM) programme, training managers aim to ensure that their pipelines are operating safely, that new pipeline controllers are trained in all aspects quickly and effectively and that their training programme is compliant with industry regulations. Pipeline Trainer allows pipeline controllers to train on normal, as well as abnormal operating scenarios – in a safe, realistic environment. This approach encourages the capture and transfer of knowledge, improved safety, reduced risk and, ultimately, enhanced reliability and availability.

The Best Defence? A Good Offence

The greater a pipeline’s complexity, the more of a challenge it becomes to manage problems impacting the bottom line. This issue has the potential for exposing companies to regulatory scrutiny and potentially damaging publicity. Leading pipeline operators acknowledge that the best defence is a good offence. It is crucial to establish the best-possible predictive, preventative and protective measures. Then, having highly trained pipeline controllers in place to implement those measures is also of critical importance.

Pipeline Trainer Features

Pipeline Trainer is an Operator Training System (OTS). It enables pipeline controllers to train for operator qualification on normal, as well as abnormal operating scenarios, in a safe, realistic environment.

Best Practices – The Best Way to Train

Best Practices – The Best Way to Train

Making use of a robust scenario builder, training managers can make sure that pipeline controllers are learning how to do things correctly, following best practices for the running of pipelines and reacting to abnormal incidents.

Preparation For Upcoming Operations

Preparation For Upcoming Operations

In the lead-up to commencing a new pipeline, operators can train on a Digital Twin of the pipeline. In doing so, it is ensured that they will be well prepared and that they understand how the pipeline will operate in reality, once it goes live.

Qualification and Compliance Support

Qualification and Compliance Support

The use of training controllers is critical to a pipeline operator compliance programme. In the US, regulations 49 CFR 192 and 195 mandate simulator-based training as the number one recommended training approach.

Normal and Abnormal Operations Response

Normal and Abnormal Operations Response

Pipeline Trainer allows controllers to train on both normal (start-up and shutdown) and abnormal (leak or communication error) operations in a safe, yet realistic non-production environment.
