Introduction
Commissioning covers activities required to take a project from the construction phase to the operating phase. Commissioning is a process where the activities and sequence depend on company and client expectations, as well as a project execution strategy. This course provides comprehensive coverage of all the key aspects of pre-commission planning, documentation handling, handovers, mechanical completions, initial operation testing, and final commissioning to the start-up of the plant. Safety aspects are also rigorously infused into the workshop content to ensure risk mitigated. Together with our commissioning specialist George, find out how you can utilize vital information as step by step guide to achieving safe and successful commissioning!
Objectives
- GAIN INSIGHTS on step by step phases of commissioning planning
- Recognize project safety management as applied in process plant start-up, commissioning & troubleshooting
- ESTABLISH clear guidelines for individual roles and responsibilities in the project
- INTRODUCE instrumentation & control systems in process plant start-up and conduct performance trials
- MANAGE efficiently the electrical, utilities, and machinery systems during initial operations
- MONITOR the progress of initial start-up operations and make appropriate adjustments to variables
- REINFORCE troubleshooting and problem-solving strategies which can be applied
- Minimize risk in the commissioning process by adopting risk-based commissioning
- LEARN from possible hiccups highlighted at the different stages of the commissioning process
By attending this training course, you will be able to:
Training Methodology
This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies, and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations. The online course is conducted online using MS-Teams/ClickMeeting.

Course Outline
ORGANIZATION
- Integration of commissioning activities into the project process: mechanical completion, pre-commissioning, commissioning, and start-up activities during the project steps.
- Commissioning procedures. Interfaces with the different engineering disciplines according to the types of contracts.
- Plant/project breakdown into systems and subsystems. The execution plan for commissioning and start-up.
- Setting up of commissioning/start-up teams. The split of responsibilities. Preparation of the list of precedents
- Start-up phases: recommissioning, commissioning, and preparation for start-up, performance tests, provisional acceptance, mechanical guarantees, final acceptance. Hand over.
SAFETY
- Risks related to the auxiliary fluids and the introduction of hydrocarbons. Risk evolution between construction, commissioning, and start-up. Control of the risks related to modifications during the different phases.
- Pre-Start-up Safety Review (PSSR).
END OF CONSTRUCTION - PRE COMMISSIONING
- Recommissioning activities: static verification of equipment, hydraulic tests and equipment cleaning, the involvement of operations in the mechanical completion, punch-list, actions follow-up, and closeout.
COMMISSIONING
- Commissioning activities. Cleaning, flushing, blowing, and drying. Dynamic testing.
- Synchronization of control loops and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).
START-UP & ACCEPTANCE
- Start-up permit: checks required before oil-in. Leak tests, air removal, raw materials introduction.
- The transition towards industrial production: performance tests, temporary and final acceptance, responsibility transfer.
