Case Studies

Case Study 1: Perenco (Bacton Gas Terminal) 2020

  • Close out of HAZOP actions and recalculation of 53 relief valves for onshore gas processing terminal.
  • Failure scenarios assessed, valves sized, actions highlighted.
  • Safety report issued to client for implementation.

Case Study 2: Ineos (FPS Kinneil) 2023

  • Flarenet analysis of a crude relief line and flare system.
  • Developed optimisation of sizing including recommendations for resizing existing valves where capacities exceeded requirements and the excess flow was contributing to excessive pressure drop, vibration and slugging.
  • Resized valves and relief line leads to significantly reduced sizing, improved layout, installation and flow regime, along with reduction in CAPEX.

Case Study 3: Shell UK Limited (Acorn CCS) 2022

  • WHRU & Heating Medium System Analsysis for Carbon Capture Plant
  • Proved the requirement for a secondary heating medium loop system for flue gas cooling & providing heat to the Amine reboiler.
  • Developed process simulation & calculations for heat integration & equipment sizing / optimisation.
  • Delivered report with recommendations to client’s satisfaction
