Emerson Complete Operator Training SolutionsReduce Risk and Improve Your Plant’s Performance

Upskill your workforce to fully utilizetoday’s digital plant technologies.

Your operational concernsof an aging workforce,reducing risk, andimproving performance arevalid. You need qualityoperator training at eachlevel that meets yourbudget, scheduling andproduction needs. Ideally,you would have web-basedeLearning, traditionalclassroom as well asdynamic simulation-basedoperator training.

Emerson’s unique approach toOperator Training Solutions (OTS)focuses on a complete trainingprogram developed from aneducational perspective vs. theconventional simulation-onlyapproach.

We can develop your operationsstaff, from novice to advancedlevels, without the complexity andcost associated with typicalsimulation systems.

The training difference is built inthe DeltaV TM system’s centricmonitoring and scoring whichmeans your staff doesn’t need tolearn additional interfaces. A basic

understanding of the DeltaVsystem is all that is required tomaintain and build enhancedfunctionality.

Capture the knowledgeof your aging workforceOur customers say their numberone concern is how to pass theexperience of their aging workforce on to younger workers.Emerson’s DeltaV OperatorTraining Solution provides an idealplatform for sharing knowledgegained from years of experience. By combining customizedcourseware, dynamic simulation,scenarios and the tools providedwith DeltaV OTS, you enable yournew operators to gain experienceat an accelerated rate.

Developed from an EducatiDesigned to Meet Your Nee

Sample plant workforce demographic illustrates a largepercentage of experienced operators will be eligible toretire in five years.

Case StudyA major refinery in Texas converted key process areas from pneumatic controls to a state-of-the-art EmersonPlantWeb architecture featuring the DeltaV digital automation system. Key to the success was a smooth transitionthat prepared employees with the knowledge of how to get the greatest performance and cost benefits from their

new system. Our Educational Services experts delivered anengineered, hands-on, process-specific training program.Simulations exposed operators to what they would experiencein their actual control room and allowed them to practice andrespond to process upsets. This enabled them to gain theconfidence and experience in an off-line, no-risk environmentprior to actual plant operation.

The refinery reported that the training program exceeded allof their expectations and was crucial to improvement inoperational readiness and results.

The simulation-based training program will continue at thisrefinery as an ongoing tool to train future operators and toprovide refresher training and practice for current operators inhandling potential incidents.

onal Perspective–ds

Reduce your riskPlant safety is paramount. Operatorerror is the leading cause ofproduction cost losses per incident.Emerson’s Operator TrainingSolutions will lower youroperational risk by acceleratingyour workforce’s learningexperience with realistic, hands-ontraining, in a safe, controlledenvironment without risk to plantpersonnel or operations.

Improve yourperformanceEmerson’s Operator TrainingSolutions provide an effectivelearning environment thatincreases profits throughoperational excellence. This suite oftools assists in making youroperations staff more efficient byreducing start-up time, down time,off-spec product and increasingyour facility’s energy efficiency. Awell-trained operations workforcewill impact each of these areas.
