Simulator for studying electric systems in oil drilling rigs

ODR-1/EV

This table-top simulator is a preparatory panel for the training of maintenance technicians of (on-shore & off-shore) oil rigs. Two targets are proposed: knowing the lay-out of a typical oil rig; knowing the electric (generation and consumption) apparatuses and their instructions of use.

Training program

This Simulator enables students to learn:

  • the lay-out of an oil rig
  • the components of a typical electrical installation of an oil rig: alternators, Diesel engines, SCR drives, DC driving motors, Motor Control Center, etc…
  • electrical installations of an oil rig
  • the operations and procedures for managing the electric power, including the parallel of alternators
  • the specific instruments for optimizing the performance of Diesel engines preventing them from wearing out, and for fuel saving
  • the overloads of active power and of reactive power and measures for preventing them.
