Abstract/Summary
An Operator Training System (OTS) is one of the best methods to train staff in operations before a producing plant start-up. Carrying out this training before plant commissioning ensures a fast learning curve of the new process and control and instrumentation systems. Moreover, the operators can be exposed to emergency situations or process upsets that are not part of the daily operation. This will facilitate the operator response to normal and abnormal process conditions.
