All Testimonials

In my memory Worley Oman’ journey with BR&E has been more than 20 years. In a nutshell this journey has been excellent and productive.

To start with training, we have no young engineers available who hasn’t received the training from BR&E. It is not only the number but also in terms of quality training which I could make out by talking to young talents in the floor. Your coverage of training is really widespread and well structured to cater for the business we do.

In terms of supports, I don’t remember any incident when we requested your support, and you haven’t responded. Trust your supports have been very apt and on time.

In summary, as a team we have become very agile and enriched and delivering to the expectations of our Clients. Trust, BR&E has strong role to play in this endeavor.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent Promax training you provided us. The information and hands-on exercises were incredibly valuable, and we feel much more confident in our ability to use the Promax system effectively.

The trainer's expertise and engaging teaching style made the sessions both informative and enjoyable. [We] particularly appreciated the opportunity to practice the key features and workflows - it really helped to solidify our understanding.

Thank you again for investing the time to ensure our team is properly trained and equipped.

I enjoyed Josh and Andrew’s approach to teaching the class. They’re really knowledgeable and able to answer any and all questions. I appreciate this since I needed some assistance through the exercises.

I must say, it was an incredibly enriching experience. I’m new to Promax, I found the training to be exceptionally beneficial in expanding my understanding of the software and its applications in carbon capturing. One of the standout features of the training was its interactive nature. Instead of a traditional lecture-style format, the sessions were heavily exercise-based, allowing us to immerse ourselves in practical applications right from the start. This hands-on approach not only made the learning process more engaging but also helped solidify concepts in a way that simply listening to a presentation couldn't achieve. Mr. Ivan, our trainer, deserves immense praise for his exceptional subject knowledge. His expertise in Promax and carbon capturing was evident throughout the training. He was not only able to effectively convey complex concepts but also provided invaluable insights and real-world examples, which greatly enhanced our understanding. Moreover, the training materials provided were comprehensive and well-structured, making it easy for beginners like myself to follow along and grasp the key concepts. The exercises were thoughtfully designed to gradually build upon each other, ensuring a smooth learning curve for everyone involved.

BRE’s always putting out the best training classes. I still feel great learning the materials, even though I have taken these classes before. Dr. Krouskop is the best instructor! Thank you, BRE!

This course was very informative. I learned more about the underlying processes and reactions with amine in two days training than I have in 10 years operating an amine system.

BRE 231 was a great refresher on overall theory related to amine sweetening/absorption and helpful in gaining an in depth understanding of operating parameters and sensitivities based on operating goals. This course was also very informative on modeling strategies for amine natural gas plants.

Very interesting course. Pace was upbeat and good natured. No dull moments! Topics were explained in depth enough for good understanding without making it too convoluted.

I really enjoyed this course. Instructors, Jared and Peter, were phenomenal! Their enthusiasm kept my attention the entire time.

Great course that looks at multiple setups and teaches great tools to incorporate into any simulation.

The best training I’ve attended in over 12 years in various industries. It is also very reassuring that there will be so much support available after the training as well.

Overall, this class was awesome. It was really nice to have someone sit down and walk through the basics of the program. Having just got out of college and using a different program in school; it felt daunting to learn a new software, but this was class was made simple and understandable by Jason. I feel very confident in my ability to figure out this software for whatever I need, and I know I can always reach out to support if they personally can’t figure it out.

The training has been excellent – top tier external engagement. Justin and Peter are great teachers and have been very helpful in learning the basics of ProMax. I have wanted to learn this software for a while now and finally feel equipped to unleash its power! The course was a good balance of content, paced appropriately, and provided the right amount of challenge for an engineer with some modelling/industry experience.

Stacy and Eric did a great job on the BRE 101 course. I appreciated their emphasis on how open and available BR&E is for supporting their customers. I also like the 2-instructor model where one instructor is able to move through the course content with the larger group while another instructor is able to help individuals who are falling behind. Instructors were also very knowledgeable in general process engineering along with the software knowledge.

Love how these ProMax classes, especially the upper level classes, teach not only the software but also the process behind it. The training manuals are as good as gold. Great teaching, it is nice that the class teachers are also happy and excited to be here.

Excellent learning exercises. Thanks to BR&E for providing opportunities to learn and understand ProMax simulation software in this difficult economic time.

Your one-on-one guidance makes the course very productive particularly for the less experienced. I started as a infrequent user, but am now very confident of handling complex projects.

This course was well worth my time. As a new engineer, I found the software more user-friendly than expected, and every time someone in class identified an area for improvement, it seemed the fix was coming out already. The examples were useful and accompanied by sufficient explanation to learn about ProMax, even where the concepts were something I don’t usually encounter at work.

Class moved quickly and covered a lot of material. The speed of the course was ideal to cover the maximum amount of material while making sure the class didn’t consume too many working days. The instructors were excellent and very helpful.

The course [Level 2: Gas Processing] was very helpful and informative. BR&E customer service never disappoints.

I appreciate the course instructor. Not only did he go over how to use ProMax, but he went over the Engineering aspect which was a good refresher. I would recommend this course to my colleagues.

This is the most user friendly process simulator I have been exposed to and also your team does a top notch job at helping people learn to use it.

Upon completion of this course, I feel confident with the program. Instructors were fantastic. This is easily the best training I’ve ever been to!

We hosted the BR&E ProMax Level 1 training class last week in Baton Rouge. I have been to several of your training classes hosted by Cory in the past. I had a great appreciation for Cory, as did many of my colleagues. We were doubtful that anyone could fill his boots so to speak. However, everyone in our group was thoroughly impressed with Zach and Stacy. They did a wonderful job of conducting the course. They also did a great job of handling some rather difficult questions, and they followed those questions up with research and one-on-one discussion during breaks. It was a good learning experience, even for those of us with years of ProMax modeling in the natural gas industry.

I would say that BR&E has the best training and customer technical support available in the simulation industry. Your team is always a pleasure to work with and extremely knowledgeable. These two certainly represented your company very well in my opinion.

The highlight of this professional hands-on training was having knowledgeable, efficient instructors and assistants available. The exercises are well-designed and enriched with information that makes the training very useful.
