Online Class: Aspen PIMS: Introduction to Refinery Planning

This is the “Online” version of our popular RPA101 PIMS class. This Online version is delivered through a combination of self-paced eLearning that you can complete over 3 weeks with live, online expert-led sessions, hands-on workshops and interactive online discussion boards.  Students usually spend 8 to 12 hours per week to complete this online course.

You’ll develop the skills to build refinery Linear Programming (LP) planning models in Aspen PIMS.  Solve and generate optimum plans while evaluating alternative crudes, intermediate feedstocks, outside blend stocks, process units, products, and markets. You’ll also learn to make decisions for your refinery based on the results from Aspen PIMS.

Audience:

Technical as well as non-technical personnel who have no experience in linear programming. Also, this course provides a person who is knowledgeable in LP (but not necessarily knowledgeable in Aspen PIMS) with a quick way to gain a good understanding of the system.
