The Program
Geoff Bottrill
HNC, DMS, MIEE
Senior Hazardous Areas Engineer
Geoff has been working in the instrumentation,
measurement and control fields for over twenty-five years
and has spent the past fifteen years specialising in
Hazardous Areas, Intrinsic Safety and Instrumentation
Drawings. Geoff began his career at Kent Instruments as a
service engineer working in both the UK and East Africa.
His experience ranges from systems design functions and
on-site trouble shooting to technical and commercial
customer support.
More recently, Geoff has taken on the responsibility of
mentoring engineers in-training, on top of the workshop
presentations in the process control and measurement
field. His positive, interactive approach to teaching, has
made him popular with workshop attendees worldwide.
There is a growing shortage, and hence opportunity, for Electrical and Instrumentation (E&I)
technicians, technologists and engineers in the oil and gas industry. This is due to an increasing need
for higher technology methods of obtaining and processing oil and gas as it is a finite declining
resource. The price of oil is heading upwards steadily, thus making personnel and their associated oil
and gas expertise in these industries even more valuable. The technical challenges of extracting oil
and gas are becoming ever more demanding, with increasing emphasis on more marginal fields and
previously inaccessible zones such as deep oceans, Polar regions, Falkland Islands and Greenland.
The aim for this program is to provide you with core E&I engineering skills to enhance your career,
and to benefit your firm.
This course provides a whole spectrum of activities ranging from basic E&I engineering through to
advanced practice in hazardous areas and data communications. It will look in depth at a vast array
of E&I equipment used in an oil and gas environment as well as examples of practical treatment of
electrical power systems and instrumentation within the oil, gas, petrochemical and offshore
industries. Whilst there is some theory included, it is used in a practical context, giving you the
necessary tools to ensure that the E&I hardware is delivering the results intended. No matter whether
you are a new electrical, instrumentation or control technician/technologist/graduate engineer or a
practising facilities engineer, you will find this course beneficial in improving your understanding,
skills and knowledge. This is a 5-day intensive workshop, covering considerable material. However, if
you are looking for a far higher level of knowledge and competencies, you can undertake our 18
month in-depth Advanced Diploma of E&I Engineering for Oil and Gas Facilities through our sister
company, EIT.
