session de formation au profit des ingénieurs du secteur sur les équipements sous pression et de stockage des hydrocarbures
Summary of Training Session on Pressure Equipment by the Ministry of Energy and Mines in Algeria
On Sunday, the Ministry of Energy and Mines launched a technical training session in Algiers focused on pressure equipment for engineers from various energy and mining departments across several provinces, as well as central administration staff. This initiative, organized by the General Directorate of Mines, is part of the ministry’s broader training and modernization plan aimed at bolstering the technical capacities of human resources.
The training session will include 23 engineers from provinces such as Algiers, Batna, Mascara, and several others, and it will span five days. The program covers a range of critical topics, including regulatory frameworks, manufacturing techniques for gas cylinders, and safety measures related to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) storage and transport systems. Additionally, it will address industrial safety issues, maintenance of pipelines, and corrosion protection.
Participants will also conduct field visits to specialized industrial units, notably to the technical center of "Naftal," which focuses on vehicle conversions to LPG systems. This will provide practical insights into compliance with national and international standards.
The training will be led by engineers and experts from the ministry, the Hydrocarbon Regulatory Authority, and Naftal, fostering a platform for knowledge exchange and skill enhancement among on-field engineers. This effort aligns with the ministry’s strategy to enhance the performance of regional technical personnel, ensuring they are well-equipped to manage industrial investment projects and uphold industrial safety, particularly as the use of butane gas cylinders and pressure equipment rises nationally.
This initiative highlights the ministry’s commitment to improving technical knowledge and regulatory awareness in the energy and mining sectors, ultimately aiming to enhance operational safety and efficiency.
