Training on Procurement of Refinery Equipment
Specialized Training for Procurement Engineers in Oil Refining and Petrochemical Projects
Pertecnica Engineering offers an advanced certification program focused on the procurement of refinery equipment, designed specifically for professionals working in upstream and downstream oil & gas projects. The course provides deep insights into the sourcing, inspection, and commercial handling of critical refinery machinery, piping systems, instrumentation, and safety devices used in crude distillation, cracking, reforming, and treatment units.
This is a project-ready program with real-time documentation formats, vendor strategies, and international compliance frameworks that refinery procurement engineers must know to successfully manage capital equipment orders and commissioning packages.
Course Modules
1. Process Understanding of Refining Units
CDU, VDU, Hydrocracker, Reformers, Desulfurization units

Route planning for oversize cargo
Delivery coordination with site teams and erection contractors
Export packing, preservation, and tagging systems
6. Commercial Contract Management
Typical LD clauses for refinery delays
AMC contracts and spare part provisioning
Procurement budget planning and cost controls
EPC integration, milestone-based invoicing, and vendor obligations
Model Case Studies
Case Study 1: Multimillion-dollar delay in reactor installation due to scope misalignment in piping specs
→ Learn how proper RFQ and datasheet linking could have prevented this.
Case Study 2: Failure of heat exchanger due to mismatch in metallurgy and process fluid
→ Understand MOC selection and cross-department verification processes.
Case Study 3: FAT rejection of flame arrestor due to missing ATEX certification
→ Learn the FAT checklist essentials for hazardous-area equipment.
Case Study 4: Vendor delay in compressor supply due to unclear inspection stages
→ Discover the importance of QAP alignment and milestone monitoring.
Who Should Join This Course

Why This Course Is Critical
Refinery projects are highly technical, hazardous, and deadline-sensitive. Delays or errors in procurement can cause millions in losses due to equipment mismatches, spec failures, or delayed commissioning. Refinery equipment procurement involves:
High-pressure, high-temperature applications (HPHT)
Compliance with API, ASME, ASTM, ATEX, and PESO standards
Long-lead machinery such as distillation columns, heat exchangers, reactors, reformers, compressors
Interfacing multiple vendors and packages under a single commissioning schedule
This course ensures that you understand every dimension of refinery procurement—from RFQ to FAT to site delivery.
