Close XV117301 and force close it from DCS engineer.
02.01
((PID11712))
02.02 Install blind 4’’ downstream XV117301 to the tank.
Close 3’’ (2 MVs from 117P004 to stripper 117C002) (line
02.03
11712003).

3’’ manual valve (line 11712003).
Close 3’’ (2 MVs from Demin water line to tank (line
02.05
18201025).
Close all tank drains to slop system (4’’ MV line 11712004,
02.06
2’’ (5 MVs line 11712005)).
Change 2’’ (3 spectacle blinds) from tank to slop system to
02.07
close position.
02.08 Remove end flange from filling station
02.09 Close 4’’ MV from tank to 117P004 (line11712004)
Open 4’’ MV suction of 117P004 and 3’’ MV min. flow of
02.10

02.11
station.
Connect LP N2 blanket on outsource tank and open vent on
02.12
it.
02.13 Open outsource tank MV.

02.14
service (min. flow condition)
02.15 Start 117P004 to fill fresh MDEA to 117T001
Monitor PI117303 and pump current; if they start to
02.16 fluctuate then pump is running near cavitation condition and
outsource tank is almost empty.
02.17 Stop 117P004 as soon as cavitation noise is heard.
02.18 Close outsource tank MV, filling station MV
02.19 Repeat steps 02.11 to 02.18 with other tanks
02.20 Disconnect the 3’’ hose from both sides.

03.10
all level accumulation towards 117C002.
Start depressurizing of absorber through SV117007 bypass
03.11 till reaching 10 kg/cm2 or the lowest pressure to keep
circulation running
Keep 5% of absorber level and flash drum level in order to
03.12
prevent HC from escaping to stripper
Reduce circulation rate to 100 m3/hr and open XV117122 to
03.13
consume stripper level till reaching 5%
When truck is full close 2’’ MVs of unloading station and
03.14

noticed reduce demin water flow to 117E002 to minimum
04.15
and open same opening to sewer drain to keep shell side of
117E002 full of demin water
04.16 Keep eye on PI117332 (slop drum pressure).
04.17 Avoid high slope drum level during drainage.
