TRAINER’S PROFILE:
Octo Moniz, (CEng., MBA (Tech. Mgt.))
Octo is an experienced and highly motivated ex-marine
engineer with extensive industry experience in onshore
and offshore industrial environments. He has hands-on
experience in the operation, maintenance and
management of a diverse range of plant and equipment
comprising steam raising boiler plant, pumps,
compressors, turbines, electrical power generation and
hvac / refrigeration systems.
He links engineering plant design, theory and best practice
with the operation and maintenance of plant, to
demonstrate how superior results and out comes may be
achieved through the application of the fundamentals. He
has strong complex problem solving skills and is ready to
discuss solution options when raised. He has a passion for
engineering and recognizes its potential to deliver
economic solutions as well as benefit to the environment
and society at large. Finally, his enthusiastic and
interactive style and demeanor makes him popular and a
much sought after Instructor.
YOU WILL LEARN TO:
 Better operate, maintain & troubleshoot HVAC
Systems and effect cost savings in the areas of
HVAC plant operations and maintenance
 Better understand HVAC fundamentals and their
application including familiarization with the
Psychrometric Chart
 Statuary requirements and ‘Indoor Air Quality’ –
what this entails and how achieved
 Perform Basic ‘heating / cooling and ventilation’
load calculations
 Develop an effective plant inspection &
performance based planned maintenance program
 HVAC system installation, testing and
commissioning – ‘pit falls’ to be aware of
 Measure and assess your existing HVAC system
performance and review the performance
enhancement / optimizations – opportunities
available.
