About the Course

This course provides an in-depth exploration of strategies, tools, and best practices for maximizing refinery yield while maintaining product quality and operational reliability. It focuses on optimizing every stage of the refining process—from crude selection and blending to advanced unit operations and product distribution—using both technical and economic perspectives. Participants will learn to balance throughput, energy consumption, and product value while adhering to safety and environmental regulations.

Real-world case studies and simulations will demonstrate how process adjustments, debottlenecking, and advanced control systems can significantly improve margins. The course also covers coordination between planning, operations, and maintenance teams to ensure consistent performance, reduce variability, and capture opportunities in fluctuating market conditions. Whether aiming to boost profitability, extend asset life, or align production with strategic goals, this training equips participants with the skills to achieve sustainable yield optimization in modern refineries.
