Risks DO's & DON'Ts: Inhibits Without Permission - Mechanical Damage
Risks DO's & DON'Ts: Inhibits Without Permission - Mechanical Damage
• Start 100-VA-001 with low liquid set point (25%) • Surge handling reserve
• Move set point up to control flow below 20m3/h (100-FT- • Unit 106 max flow= ~25 m3/hr
1101 )
• NEVER OPEN closed drain valve of HP Separator • Process safety high risk
• NEVER INHIBIT a Separator safety switch • Process safety very high risk
Unit 101 – BOOSTER COMPRESSOR
DO’s & DON’Ts RISKS
• In case Booster compressor trips, DO NOT flow LT/LTNE alone to H2S scavenger and send HP gas to 101-PV-0503
Unit 102 - MERCURY
DO’s & DON’Ts RISKS
• Bed differential pressure (102-PDT-0101) : 0.35 bar MAX • Chanelling and off-spec
and 0.02 bar MIN (at 5 to 14.2 MSM3/D)
=> If PDT not right , immediately reduce the flow by at least 30%,
investigate PDT for 1h with Instrumentation and check & trend PDT
of 103-MB-001A/B (103-PDT-0101A/B & 103-PDT-0102A/B)
• If Hg content exceeds 20 ng/Sm3 at the outlet, double • Damage the Cold Box
sampling frequency
• Max Flow of raw gas (103-FC-0201) : 10.6 MSM3/D • Mechanical damage + Foaming
• Permanent surveillance of :
• 103-PDT-0302 /PDT-0301/PDI-0802 • Foaming
• 103-LI-0306/LC-3103/LC-0805
• 104-LIS-0201
• Anti-foam injection 103-PB-045A/B
• Temperature of Amine regenerator (103-TI-1310) : 131 °C MAX
• Concentration of amine : MDEA 38.2wt%, HEP 7.3wt% • Degradation of amine, High CO2
• Lean amine Color : Clear & bright (if brownish => check N2 • CO2 outlet content increase + Foaming
blancketing)
• Foaming, High CO2
• In case of Shutdown : Continue to regenerate the amine for 30 min
