About me
Hello, I’m Brad S.C. Smith and my background is in Instrumentation and Controls and Power Engineering (Plant Operations). I have formal college educational training in Instrumentation and Controls and Power Engineering (Plant Operations).
I have lots of experience working in an Engineering group for a large Oil and Gas company, have worked in various Instrumentation and Controls roles for big companies like Air Liquide – Air Separation Into Liquid Nitrogen For The Oil and Gas Industries, SaskPower – Electricity Generation, and some major players on the international Oil and Gas platform.
Apart from the technical side of things, I also have operational experience as a Plant Operator in the oil and gas industry. So what does that mean for you, because I am writing this for you?
It means you will get from this training relevant information that has been tried and tested. Its information that you can readily use in your work to optimize your production with minimum waste of time as this will shorten your learning curve by a significant factor. You will gain skills that will enable you to easily and efficiently read P & IDs regardless of level of complexity, resulting in less stress in your work. The ability to read P & IDs empowers you to be able to see what’s in the field from your office. No one can dispute the fact that P & IDs are foundational to the operational, maintenance and modification of the process that they graphically represent. That’s a good head start if you can appreciate this fact!
Let’s face it, you need the P & IDs to make a plan that will work in the process industries, no matter you are an Engineer, Maintenance Technician, Plant Operator, Safety Personnel or simply Management. If you can easily read a P & ID, then you are a step ahead at work.
Anyone with a good plan in life will succeed. This training will help you to succeed in your work or school life whether you are a Field Tech, an Engineer, a Student, Safety Personnel or a Plant Operator. Why? Because P & IDs are a Plant facilities Communication Tool.
P & IDs can seem mysterious, but I say they don’t have to remain that way. I am determined to teach anyone interested the what, why, when, where, and how of everything Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams in this comprehensive resource available for you right now…
Remember, If You Just Put In the Work, You Will Be Justly REWARDED…
See you at the Top!
Brad.
