    Overpressure Protection

    Thanks for your reply RVAmeche. I'll certainly look into the potential second regulator in series. Yes, the scenario we are considering is that the inlet PCV fails in the wide open position with 37barg upstream and the KO drum at its normal operating pressure. We have essentially assumed...

    Overpressure Protection

    Hi, We have recently completed a LOPA study of a gas (predominantly methane) system and have found that one of the knockout drums is not adequately protected from over-pressure, based on our tolerability criteria. We have concluded that the drum requires an order of magnitude risk reduction...

    Topsides Arrival Temperature

    Hi, I was wondering if someone could clear up an issue with regards to the topsides arrival temperature from an oil reservoir. The data I have been provided with is as follows: Expected flowing wellhead pressure (dry or wet trees) = 40 - 60 barg. Expected flowing wellhead temperature (dry...

    Artificial Gas Lift

    Hi there, I was hoping that someone could describe the process of artificial gas lift for me as I am slightly confused. I understand that by introducing gas, it has the effect of reducing the density of the fluid and hence the hydrostatic pressure which is acting on the well - does this act as...
