This training is tailored to meet the needs of all engine room personnel. Our training focuses on systems rather than individual equipment. All installed equipment is manufactured by Alfa Laval. 

Objective:  To deliver up-to-date, realistic training that provides knowledge, confidence, and competence for safe and cost-effective operation of the auxiliary machinery systems.

After successfully completing this training, students will have the necessary competency to:

  • Understand the various systems and how each piece of equipment in the system has an impact on other equipment in the system

  • Operate the system in manual and automatic mode

  • Understand the responsibilities and duties needed in operating the various systems

Syllabus: 

  • Engine Lubricating and Cleaning System

    • Lube Oil Cleaning System: high speed centrifugal separators, heaters (electric and steam), and positive displacement pumps

    • Engine Lube Oil Supply System: pumps, heat exchanger (plate, shell and tube, CBM), filters, thermostatic valve
