Technical Training

Protect your turbomachinery investment with ongoing training.

Ebara Elliott Energy's turbomachinery training programs range from basic fundamentals to advanced, engineer-level topics and span a wide range of rotating equipment. We provide the knowledge and confidence that operations and maintenance personnel need to ensure safe, reliable, and efficient equipment operation.

Our training courses are taught by two experienced full-time technical trainers. The objective of each course is the proper operation and maintenance of Ebara Elliott Energy rotating equipment. Our training can reduce operating and maintenance costs and extend turbomachinery operating life.   

We offer technical training seminars and webinars throughout the year. We also offer customized courses tailored to a customer's specific requirements or equipment. Whenever possible, we recommend that training take place at an Ebara Elliott Energy site – away from business distractions and telephone interruptions. However, we will bring our technical resources to you when distance or staff availability require it.
