This month’s webinar will showcase AFPM’s Fired Heater VR Simulation Pilot. The AFPM Fired Heater Training Simulation is an immersive product designed as a supplemental tool for fired heater safety training. The virtual reality and web simulation provide a high-level simulated experience of the processes and procedures used to light a four burner fired heater from cold the start. The Fired Heater VR Simulation is now available to AFPM members on the AFPM Safety Portal. We encourage you to utilize this simulation and let us know how you incorporate it into your training at your company/site. During this webinar, you will learn: • Overview of the AFPM Immersive Learning Committee and Projects • How to navigate the Safety Portal and access the VR Simulation Speakers: Tyler Veenstra, Marathon Petroleum Company, Refining Training & Development Manager Tim Chappell, Exxon Mobil Corporation, VR Training Portfolio Lead Abby Esterly, AFPM
This webinar explores the issue of making data driven open loop models for a complete plant. This involves many independent and dependent variables and the task is to find meaningful and reproducible relationships between them. This webinar will help anyone involved in the task in the refinery, petrochemicals, or any continuous processing unit.
Walk the Line (WTL) is about providing operators with the tools they need to understand the current operating state of the plant. Those tools are bundled into three pillars of Walk the Line: Operating Culture, Operational Continuity through Operational Discipline, and Operational Readiness. Every year, Walk the Line hosts a Workshop focused around one of those three Pillars. This year's WTL Workshop's theme is Conduct of Operations. During this month's Safety webinar, you will: • Get an overview of AFPM's Walk the Line program and how to utilize the WTL Toolbox to get started at your site. • Hear a leadership perspective of the importance of Walk the Line and empowering the front lines • Learn about Walk the Line's available resources including the new Digital Procedures Implementation Checklist • Preview of the theme and sessions for this year’s Walk the Line Face to Face Workshop. Speakers: Lawrence Moreaux, LyondellBasell, Director of Digital Technology Integration Raymond Chafin, PEMEX Deer Park, Vice President of Technology
