Gas Chromatography and Troubleshooting for the Oil & Gas Industry - (EO 6075)

Introduction</h2>
In the past 50 years, Gas Chromatography has become an indispensable analytical tool in virtually every phase of the petroleum industry, from the exploration of crude oil and refining of finished products to research on new petrochemicals. Gas Chromatography (GC) is one of the most widely utilized techniques in modern analytical chemistry. In its most basic form, it is used to separate complex mixtures of different molecules based on their physical properties, such as polarity and boiling point.
Gas chromatography troubleshooting in the oil and gas industry course stands as an ideal tool to analyze gas and liquid samples containing many hundreds or even thousands of different molecules, as in the case of crude oil or its products. The technique enables analysts to identify both the types and concentrations of molecular species present.
This gas chromatography troubleshooting in oil and gas industry training course introduces the fundamental theory of gas chromatography, including the operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting, from sample introduction to data analysis. Instrument components are described and presented, along with their underlying theories, guiding best practices, and effective method optimization and troubleshooting strategies.
Due to the variety and complexity of sample types, petroleum chemists employ a broad spectrum of gas chromatographic methods. Participants in the gas chromatography troubleshooting in the oil and gas industry course will learn about current best practices concerning system configuration choices and initial method conditions.
