The course will focus on technical, physical and engineering aspects of the natural gas system from production to distribution presenting the 3 main segments (upstream, midstream and downstream).

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to the technical foundations of power systems, the evolution of the generation mix from thermal to renewable sources, operational challenges, grid stability and frequency management, balancing mechanisms and flexibility requirements. The programme includes two dedicated modules one on power systems (duration: 2 days + site visit) and one on gas systems (duration: 1 day + site visit) – which may be attended together (total: 4 days including site visit) or separately.
