Overview

CO2 Surface Facilities Operations and Integrity Course is a 1-week advanced course for process, facilities, project, and operations professionals who leave with a CO2 Surface Facility Operating and Integrity Plan. Participants connect conditioning, compression, dehydration, metering, dense-phase transport, injection support, materials, corrosion control, process safety, troubleshooting, and performance assurance across facility interfaces. Agile Leaders Training Center delivers this course on CO2 surface facilities operations and integrity.

Who Should Attend

  • Teams responsible for CO2 gathering, conditioning, compression, and dehydration operations.

  • Functions responsible for facility design reviews, project interfaces, and commissioning readiness.

  • Teams responsible for pipeline transport, metering, and injection-facility coordination.

  • Functions responsible for materials selection, corrosion control, and mechanical integrity.

  • Leaders responsible for process safety, reliability, troubleshooting, and performance assurance.

The course assumes participants already work with process facilities or pipeline systems and leaves out introductory thermodynamics, detailed reservoir engineering, and subsurface storage design.

Departments and Industries

The course supports CO2 surface-facility decisions across energy, industrial processing, transport infrastructure, and carbon-management projects.

  • Process and facilities engineering

  • Operations and production support

  • Pipeline and terminal operations

  • Mechanical integrity and corrosion management

  • Project delivery and commissioning

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Analyze CO2 phase behavior and impurity effects across surface facilities.

  • Evaluate conditioning, compression, dehydration, and metering configurations.

  • Apply materials, corrosion, integrity, and process-safety controls.

  • Diagnose operating disturbances across transport and injection interfaces.

  • Build performance indicators and operating envelopes for CO2 systems.

  • Develop a CO2 Surface Facility Operating and Integrity Plan.

Practical Exercises

The course uses suggested activities to connect process behavior, equipment performance, integrity threats, and operating decisions.

  • Suggested activity: diagnose a changing CO2 stream using phase behavior, impurity, dehydration, and compression evidence.

  • Suggested activity: define a transport operating envelope and response actions for pressure, temperature, and composition deviations.

  • Suggested activity: build a bow-tie linking release scenarios, safeguards, monitoring, and escalation decisions.

  • Suggested activity: integrate operating limits, integrity controls, indicators, and interface responsibilities into the capstone plan.

FAQs

Who suits CO2 surface facilities operations and integrity training, and what does it assume?

Process, facilities, project, pipeline, integrity, and operations professionals suit the training. It assumes practical experience with process facilities or transport systems and excludes introductory thermodynamics and subsurface reservoir design.

How does CO2 surface facilities training differ from carbon capture process training?

CO2 surface facilities training begins after capture and focuses on conditioning, compression, dehydration, metering, transport, injection interfaces, integrity, and operability; carbon capture training focuses mainly on separating CO2 from source streams.

Why is CO2 stream quality important for surface facilities?

CO2 stream quality affects phase behavior, compression demand, dehydration duty, metering, materials, corrosion risk, pipeline operation, and injection-facility acceptance.

How are CO2 surface facility operating limits established?

CO2 operating limits combine stream specifications, phase envelopes, equipment constraints, pressure and temperature boundaries, integrity threats, safeguard capacity, transport requirements, and injection-interface conditions.

Conclusion

Participants take back a CO2 Surface Facility Operating and Integrity Plan that connects stream quality, equipment limits, transport interfaces, integrity threats, safeguards, and response actions. The plan makes operational decisions and ownership visible. It supports coordinated performance assurance across engineering, operations, projects, pipeline, integrity, and injection-support teams.
