LABORATORY TEST
INTRODUCTION
 This report summarizes the composition of sludge from Pertamina RU VI
Balongan and the effect of PARALAX® mixture in treating said sludge.
 The trial was conducted using sludge and crude oil sourced from Pertamina RU VI
Balongan, although the 4th trial was using light crude oil from another operator.
 This test mixed with oil, PTO. The PTO is used as dissolving substance and now it
can be placed under any relevant test standards. So this testing complies with ASTM
D2042-15 "Standard Test Method for Solubility of Asphalt Materials in
Trichloroethylene" with PTO instead of Trichlorethylene.

• The viscosity of the oil gradually becomes higher as more sludge is dissolved.
• Steeper slope  faster liquefaction progress. Gentler slope  slower liquefaction progress. Without mixing,
sludge liquefaction still happens but in notably slower rate.
• Higher PARALAX® concentration helps maintain thinner mixture (lower viscosity).

SLUDGE TREATMENT PROCEDURE

 Model tank is filled with 400 gr sludge.


 Treated with 10 mL of PARALAX® (2.5%) mixed in
1000 mL of crude oil.
 The tank was connected with a peristaltic pump and
the PARALAX® mixture is circulated during work
hours.The pump was turned off at night to avoid
tubing rupture, and circulation was resumed in the
Sludge sample from
morning.

 Crude oil samples was taken every 4 hours to

OBSERVATION
 The sludge was generally soft and
malleable.
 After 68 hours of running the test,
the sludge starts to fall apart easily
when mixed gently with a lab
spatula.
 After 92 hours, the sludge was lifted

down into small pieces, but mixture was not homogenous
yet. Small pieces of sludge was observed throughout the
mixture.
 The mixture was left to sit through the weekend to see if
any of the pieces will liquefy any further. While the small
pieces did liquefy, there’s no notable change in the
mixture’s viscosity.

CONCLUSIONS
 Major component of the sludge: Saturates
 In Phase I the treatment with PARALAX® completely liquefies the sludge
within 124 hours. Constant agitation should greatly reduce liquefaction time.
 Kinematic viscosity of the end mixture in Beaker A is 61.04 cSt at 122°F/50°C; in
Beaker B is 72.47 cSt at 122°F/50°C.
 Higher volume of crude oil might help on reducing the end mixture’s viscosity.
 In Phase II Treatment with PARALAX® completely liquefies the sludge within
100 hours. Liquefaction process happens faster with circulation.
 Kinematic viscosity of the end mixture is 83.98 cSt at 122°F/50°C

31 PT Geoservices | SESD - GS 2 12/18/2019


CONCLUSION
 In phase III, Treatment with PARALAX® completely liquefies the sludge within 292
hours. This is notably longer than the prior test, where the sludge completely liquefies
within 100 hours.
 Kinematic viscosity of the end mixture is 73.06 cSt at 122°F/50°C
 In phase IV, Treatment with PARALAX® mixture completely liquefies the
sludge within 100 hours. Constant agitation should greatly reduce liquefaction
time.
 Kinematic viscosity of the end mixture in Beaker A is 9.925 cSt at 122°F/50°C;
in Beaker B is 7.322 cSt at 122°F/50°C.
 Lighter crude oil used in treating the sludge helps in speeding up the liquefying
process, and also result in thin end mixture.
 Higher volume of crude oil reduces the end mixture’s viscosity, but between
beaker A and B there’s no notable time difference in the liquefaction process.

OPERATIONAL TIMELINE
TREATMENT JOB PROCEDURE
1. Job Safety Analysis (Pertamina may have a different similar document) is discussed in the field
office, in order to determine tasks and responsibilities of everyone involved for mobilization,
connection/rig up, pumping,circulation,rig down and demobilization
2. Safety meeting with Pertamina and PT Geoservices personnel to ensure everyone is clear on
their tasks and responsibilities. Discuss Emergency Procedures (what can go wrong), discuss
escape routes and the Muster point.
3. Drain tank of all crude oil.
4. Insert Eductor assembly into the tank via manhole.
5. Get everything connected and ready for pumping, preferably have a pressure test for newly
made up connections. Upon completion,all non-essential personnel should leave the location
6. Add predetermined starting amount of crude oil to sludge.
7. Start crude oil circulation through a hose via manhole.After manhole (inside tank) oil is jetted
via Eductor assembly. Pump rate: 3m3/min, pressure within the safe limits
8. Inject PARALAX into the circulating flow via suction of the pump
9. Transfer remaining required amount of crude oil into the tank
CIRCULATION PROCEDURE
1. Once all PARALAX chemical is injected into the circulating flow of crude oil. Close and secure
chemical injection pump.
2. Circulation Stage has been started now.
3. Every 6-8 hours
1. Measure BS&W to help determine mixing progress.
2. Measure viscosity of crude oil. It is a performance indicator of sludge absorption by crude oil.
3. touch the bottom and record depth of sludge, evaluate ETA to the bottom and plan when to stop.
Preferably take measurement of depth of sludge in as many spots from tank roof as technically possible.
4. Once all sludge is liquefied, drain all crude in tank.
5. Rig down all equipment,leave location clean and tidy
6. return to normal operation

Circulation Duration: normally 5 days up to 15 days do to the large diameter of the tank

NEUTRON BACKSCATTER

 Teknik ini memanfaatkan hamburan balik neutron, menggunakan sumber


neutron yang ditembakan kedalam target.
 Neutron akan dipantulkan atom-atom hydrogen yang terkandung pada
material.
 Teknik ini dapat digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi profile slude pada dinding
tangki penyimpanan.
KEGUNAAN: KEUNGGULAN:
 •Storage tank sludge and inventory  Non-invasive
levels  Hasilcepat
 •Level gauge calibration  Pengukuranonline
 •Liquid heights on tray and in down
comers
 •Determine the location of wet
insulation and corrosion under
insulation (CUI)
PRINSIP METODE
Untuk masalah Sludge, sulit untuk menentukan volumenya
karena keterbatasan akses di dalam tangki.
Teknik NEUTRON BACKSCATTERING ini mampu
mengidentifikasi dan mengkarakterisasi antarmuka bahan
proses di dalam Tangki - dari uap cair hingga uap padat,
dan semua kombinasi di antaranya.
Dengan memanfaatkan hamburan balik neutron untuk
mengukur tingkat lumpur dalam tangki penyimpanan,
dilakukan dengan memaparkan sumber neutron Am-Be (1-
Ci) ke tangki.
Dan Ketika neutron cepat bertabrakan dengan hidrogen,
energi dimoderasi melalui hamburan dan menjadi neutron
lambat (neutron termal).
Jumlah Neutron termal dari hamburan balik yang terdeteksi
oleh detektor. berbanding lurus dengan konsentrasi
hidrogen dari bahan yang berinteraksi dengan neutron
cepat.
Kemudian data yang diterima oleh detector kita proses
dalam betuk grafik sehingga berdasarkan fenomenanya,
antarmuka material di dalam tangki tersebut dapat diukur.
