Emerson
Process Solutions’ Hydrocarbon and Energy Industry Center has
provided flow measurement training to the oil and gas industry for
over a decade. During this time, we have developed a significant amount
of material to provide our customers with focused training services.
The
Challenge
Flow
measurement is critical to the bottom line. Properly trained staff
can save our customers millions of dollars by preventing measurement
errors and recognizing unverified measurement data in systems.
The
Solution
Our measurement training services cover a wide variety of topics.
We focus on a particular job function or provide our customers’
personnel with a general measurement background. Training reduces
the risk of bad data getting into an accounting system. We provide
personnel with what they need to know to ensure the integrity of measurement
data.
Benefits
Good
measurement data allows for verifiable cost and revenue data. Appropriate
training is the cornerstone of good measurement data. An investment
in measurement training quickly pays for itself through the reduction
of costs associated with retroactive adjustments. Identifying and
correcting errors in measurement data results in increased revenue
for our customers’ operations.

offer a variety of delivery methods for measurement training:

Customers can purchase the training course as a set or select only
those modules that are pertinent to their training requirements. Our
team of measurement experts can produce new material quickly and effectively
for companies who require a customized approach to measurement training.
