The Boss on stage  
The Engineering Solutions Division of Cal Gavin provides a comprehensive heat exchanger problem-solving service, delivering solutions to customers in the oil, gas and chemicals industries across the globe.  The success of this service is based upon the application of powerful modelling and analysis tools, combined with a thorough understanding of the principles of heat transfer and heat exchanger operation.
The benefits of better understanding of heat exchanger design and operation can also be delivered across a client organisation through training courses.  These courses are aimed at primarily at Process Engineers who are responsible for the operation of heat transfer equipment, and are designed to enable the engineer to obtain the best possible plant performance.

The courses are written and delivered by experienced heat transfer engineers.

Training Course Synopses

The following courses are available as standard packages and can be delivered individually or as a series.  In addition, Cal Gavin is pleased to discuss customised packages to address particular needs (e.g. to prepare an engineering team for a debottlenecking project).  Where possible the course content will be aligned with any software packages available for use by the client’s engineers.  All courses are supported by a comprehensive training notes package, including case study material.
