These courses are usually held between 3-5 days each. Unfortunately, the training which they go to are more of a standard industrial training rather than job\/equipment specific training.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The standard training structure usually prepares the participants towards basic programming, but seldom involves troubleshooting training even if it does it is very general, mostly not specific to the rig equipment.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Working extensively with rig electricians and technicians, we find that the level of PLC troubleshooting knowledge and skills in connecting and accessing the PLC is very minimal, sadly in some rigs it is down to no confidence!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">This prompted OMG RIG MAINTENANCE to prepare a PLC TROUBLESHOOTING training module that will be rig specific, covering various PLC types that is available on each installation, with&nbsp;hands-on workshops to boost the electricians\u2019 confidence.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>OBJECTIVE<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To introduce and assist rig electricians and technicians on PLC Troubleshooting specific to their rig.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>COURSE LAYOUT (<\/strong><em>The training will be customized to each rig)<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course title: <em>PLC Maintenance &amp; Troubleshooting<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Description: 5 days, 8 hours\/day class room\/workshop training.
