This Petrogenium course aims at improving competencies of mechanical engineers, inspection and corrosion engineers, operators, process engineers in terms of understanding the storage engineering issues faced by complex refineries. It is also possible to benefit from an exclusive technical services arrangement from Petrogenium after the training. Participants can be from diverse spectrum of both young and experienced engineers. The training includes both theoretical and practical hands-on sessions. The training can also be structured to address specific issues faced by a particular refinery / operating unit.
