Getting more hands-on experience and insight into the production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) was the focus of a two-month training stint in Japan for a young team of Qatari engineers from RasGas Company Limited (RasGas). The specialised technical training session hosted by Chiyoda Corporation, Japan, was part of RasGas’ push to provide value-added training opportunities that would enhance the engineering skills of young nationals who want to advance their career in the LNG industry.
As part of the specialised training course, the RasGas trainees were taken on several site visits.
Ahmad Al Mohannadi, Operations Technical Engineering Department Manager, who attended the concluding ceremony, said the trainees had definitely enhanced their engineering abilities in the gas sector and improved their knowledge of several other disciplines through the specialised course.
The RasGas Trainees included Sayer Al Anzi (Instruments and Control Engineer), Hamad Mohammed Al Marri (Cost Engineer), Aysha Al Mohannadi (Project Engineer), Rashid Mohammed Al Mansouri (Process and Surveillance Engineer) and Adel Al Sayed (Integrity and Corrosion Engineer).
Aysha Al Mohannadi said: “It was one of the very rare channels for networking with higher authorities in Japan and to understand how they achieved such high levels in designing the LNG trains from a technical point of view.”
