1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
1.1.1 Location
Wafa field is located in the South West part of Libya, adjacent to the Libyan-Algerian
border.
The function of plant operations is surveillance of all plant equipment and systems for
proper operation. These functions include sampling, continuous equipment
observations, recording normal and abnormal plant conditions, and most important is
making necessary adjustments to maintain high recovery and on specification products.
The operating manual provides the operator with information to supplement his basic
mechanical operating skills. It is most essential that supervisors and operators become
intimately familiar with physical installations, locations and components of equipment,
and can trace all lines and valves from start to finish. Repetition will greatly accelerate
the acquisition of this knowledge.
The operating manual does not relieve the plant operators from good judgment and
safe practices. Though the plant is protected by safeguards, alertness on the part of
each operator will insure proper functioning of plant equipment and minimize relieving
and flare operations. In time; additional plant operational experiences will develop; and
from these, additional procedures can be written to supplement this manual.
The Wafa Desert Plant is to process, treat and condition NG-1, NG-2, SG-1, NO-1, NO-
2 well streams and well streams near the Plant to produce sales gas. The plant facilities
are designed to process 450 MMSCFD of gas, and to produce liquid (condensate +
NGL) which will be implement the final treatment and fractionation process of the liquids

The Western Libya Gas Project (WLGP) entails developing two reservoirs, the former
(Wafa field) located in an onshore desert area 500 km from the Mediterranean coast,
the latter (NC-41 block) located offshore and covering an area between 30 and 350 km.
from the Libyan coast in water depth ranging from 70 to 350 m.
Production from both fields will sum up to 11.1 BSCM/Y (inclusive 11% swing factor) of
sales gas, 60,600/39,000 SBPD of stabilized oil/condensate, 15,000 SBPD of liquid
propane, 13,000 SBPD of liquid butane and 530 t/day of liquid sulphur.
Sales Gas/ Treated Oil on shore pipeline from the Desert to the Coastal and Mellitah
Plant are other contract projects.
2. BASIS OF DESIGN
Foreword
The present section provides the main process basis of design applicable to the Wafa
Desert Plant facilities.
For a better understanding of the design basis documentation, it should be read in
conjunction with the following other design reports:

The Wafa Plant design treatment capacity has been fixed on the basis of the normal
3
sales gas delivery requirement of 4.0 BSm /y of sales gas to the two Mellitah gas fiscal
metering stations dedicated to exportation to Italy and to local market.
This is a net delivery amount after having subtracted all facilities consumptions.
In addition, a peak factor, referred to as the “swing factor”, of 11% has been considered
to fix the maximum plant operating capacity.
From the above, the following detailed breakdown has been calculated:
The above tabled peak flow rate given at the export pipeline inlet has been considered
as the gas production target for the plant simulation work.
3
In addition, an internal fuel gas consumption of 65.3 MMSCFD, e.g. 77,000 Sm /h has
been considered for the Wafa Central (Desert) Plant facilities.
As a general, in addition to the “Swing factor” of 11% that has been taken into account
for the whole plant facilities, a general over design engineering margin of 10% was
applied to all pieces of equipment, lines, etc., with the exception of the following items:
¨ The export compressor and Expedition pumps, which feed respectively the sales
gas and oil pipelines. These items are sized for the peak flow rate, e.g. based on
Swing factor production, without any other over design margins.
¨ The oil and gas pipelines, which are sized for the peak flow rate, e.g. based on
Swing factor production, without any other over design margins.
No stringent turndown capabilities are requested for the Wafa plant facilities.
The equipment is designed with the best turndown factor that can be achieved by
available standard technology, the purpose being not to affect equipment availability
and reliability through excessive turndown requirements.
The Process Units which are foreseen at Wafa Plant as shown in para. 1.1.3 to
accomplish the treatment of the feedstock.

To reach the above said target the basic philosophy that will be applied is to split the oil
separation/treatment plant and the gas separation/treatment plant into two parallel
trains sized at 50% capacity each.
Exceptions to this philosophy will be taken in some places where single equipment will
be spared, but keeping the general concept that 50 % of production has to be
maintained.
a) the probability of two parallel lines shut down at the same time for accidental
reasons is extremely low;
b) in case one line is in major overhaul, the other line could be affected only by small
emergency situations which can be solved in short time, enabling said line to
restart well before the period of 43.8 h. In fact all items more likely subject of
failures, such as rotary equipment, will be spared adequately. Failure of static
equipment is not considered.
The target of max total yearly downtime at 50 % capacity is considered reached since it
is possible to operate maintenance on one train keeping half of the plant production.
For sure this will require a careful planning of the maintenance.

2.3.1.1 General
Feedstocks to the plant facilities are the reservoir fluids coming from the North Oil, the
North Gas and the South Gas fields’ wells.
Gas well fluid has been considered to be produced from both North and South gas
wells, e.g. according to Base Case scenario. Anyhow no significant change is to be
faced in the Worst Case scenario, e.g. when South Gas field does not produce.
Three years have been simulated, along the plant facilities production period. Each of
them happen to be the sizing case of some sections of the facilities, namely:
The composition of North Oil, North Gas and South Gas reservoir fluids are the one
defined in the “Feedstock Composition Study” T-53-T-O-0001 00 with the following
updating performed during the development of the heat and material balances:
¨ In the oil composition the water has been increased in order to have the maximum
expected formation water flow rate at each of the above mentioned design years.
This avoids to have an additional design year for water treating facilities.
¨ Flow rate adjustments on North and South gas wells have been performed in order
to match the Wafa Plant sales gas peak production, as defined in paragraph 2.1.3.
As a basic premise applied to the final throughput tuning, for each considered year,
the ratio between North gas and South gas flow rates has been kept equal to the

Actually, the Wafa Desert Plant facilities do produce gas at sales product specification.
On the other hand, the Wafa Coastal Plant will implement the final treatment and
fractionation process of the liquids so as to achieve the requested commercial grade
specifications of the liquid products, e.g. Propane, Butane and Stabilized Oil.
As highlighted above, production from the Wafa Desert Plant facilities consists of:
¨ A gas stream of sales gas quality that is routed to Mellitah for export to end users via
a cross-country monophasic gas pipeline.
¨ an unstabilised oil stream, e.g. NGL stream cut, that is routed to Mellitah for further
treatment and fractionation in order to produce liquids of commercial grade quality. A
cross-country monophasic liquid pipeline ensures the transportation.
Compositions and flowrates of the Wafa Desert Plant facilities product streams are
given in the following tables (2.3.7 and 2.3.8).
The feed gas after dehydration and demercurization in Unit 11/12-310 and 11/12-350 is
treated by the CRYOMAX® licensed process to produce the de-ethanized NGL
products in the Dew Point Control Unit 11/12-340.

The Wafa gathering system processes the gas wells and the oil wells effluents to the
Wafa Plant facilities.
Operating pressures and temperatures of the oil and gas slugcatchers at the Wafa
gathering battery limits are given in the following tables for all the design cases and for
both summer and winter conditions (2.4.1 and 2.4.2).
Inlet temperatures to slugcatchers are obtained as a weighted average of the arrival
temperatures from Clusters NG-1, NG-2, CP, SG-1 and NO-1 and NO-2.
It also accounts for the step-wise pressure profile of the gas and oil slugcatchers.
The Wafa cross-country pipelines delivers sales gas and unstabilised condensate to
the Mellitah Wafa coastal plant facilities. Operating pressures and temperatures of the
oil and gas pipelines at pipeline inlet battery limits are given in the following tables for

Table 2.4.3 – Wafa oil and gas pipelines P,T inlet conditions
The tabled figures refer to year 1 of operation, design reference for both pipelines.
The ranges given for inlet pressure are related to different assumption on pipe
roughness, pipeline actual length, number of bends etc.
The facilities design includes an operating margin with regard to the gas pipeline
operation, so that export sales gas may be delivered to the pipeline at pressure level up
to 77.2 bara.
The simulations have been performed considering pressure drops varying from summer
to winter due to different soil temperature and a fixed pressure point for each pipeline.
In the gas pipeline the fixed pressure point is the arrival at Mellitah (35 bara). In the
liquid pipeline a 10 bar margin above fluid vapor pressure has been imposed all along
the pipeline.
The Wafa desert fuel gas system is divided into MP fuel gas and LP fuel gas.
The former is supplied from Export Gas 2nd Storage Knock Out Drum (10-362-
VA002A/B/C) as Sales Gas, and the latter is from Rich Amine Flash Drum (11/12-330-
VA003) as Rich Amine Flash Gas.
Operating pressures and temperatures of the fuel gas system inlet are given in the
following tables.

(*) The process description from the oil wells to the oil slugcatchers shall be referred
to the Operating Manual of module 52(Gathering Network).
The reservoir effluent from the wells of the Wafa oil field, collected in the oil inlet
manifold, is sent to the First Oil Slugcatcher 20-130-VQ-003 and the Second Oil
Slugcatcher 20-130-VQ-004.
The two items are normally operated, each sized for half of the overall production.
Dedicated isolation facilities allow to process half of the North oil field production in one
item, whilst the other one is shutdown.
Temporary Demulsifier & Hydrate formation inhibitor injection connections are provided
for possible use during transient operations. Injection point is located at slugcatchers
associated gas overhead line. Also temporary scale inhibitor injection connection is
provided at slug catcher inlet.
The gas stream from the Slugcatchers is connected to Slugcatcher OVHD Separators
20-130-VZ-003/004 respectively and then routed under pressure control to the Inlet Oil
Slugcatcher KO Drums 10-200-VA-001A/B.
Each of the two OVHD Separators and KO Drums is sized to process half of the gas
fields production.
The pressure controller, 10-200-PIC-003, actually controls the oil gathering production.
Pressure signal is identically sent to the two KO Drums inlet pressure control valves,
10-200-PV-003A/B, installed in parallel. Flow meters, FI-003/004, which are installed on
the raw gas outlet lines of KO Drums respectively, show any unbalanced split of flow
between the two Drums, in case of possible internals plugging.

The HIPS system on the raw gas line from the oil reception facility meets the probabilistic SIL
(Safety Integrity Level) 2 requirement based on a full stroke test interval of two years.
The HIPS system meets the architectural SIL 2 requirements as the test interval does not affect
the Safe Failure Fraction or Hardware Fault Tolerance of initiators, logic solver or final element.
Based on the consideration of both probabilistic requirements and architectural constraints, the
HIPS system meets the SIL 2 requirement, which is the same as that of a pressure safety valve.

210-TCV-263/274, installed on the exchanger bypass on the feed side inlet.
The overhead vapor is partially condensed in the Stabilizer Reflux Condenser 10-210-
HC-002A/B and then collected in the Stabilizer Reflux Drum 10-210-VA-002A/B, which
achieves a three phase separation.
The vapor stream is sent to the Off Gas Compressor Filters 10-361-CL-001A/B under
pressure control, 10-210-PIC-113/114. On the Stabilizer Reflux Drum, a pressure blow-
off valve, 10-210-PCV-065/077 to flare is installed for start-up purpose and upset
conditions.
The liquid hydrocarbon stream from the Reflux Drum is pumped back by the Stabilizer
Reflux Pumps 10-210-PA-003A/B & 004A/B as the reflux to the top tray of the
Condensate Stabilizer under a flow / level cascade control loop, 10-210-LC-FC-081/091.
The decanted water in boot is sent under on-off type interface level control, 10-210-
LDIC-082/092, to the process oily water system.
A water draw-off pot is installed to allow for water removal from the top 4 trays of the
Condensate Stabilizers. During normal operation, no water condensation is expected to
occur inside the top of the tower.
The water accumulated in the draw-off pot is routed manually to the process oily water
system by checking 10-210-LDI-062/072.
The Stabilizer Reboilers 10-210-HA-004A/B are kettle type and heated with hot oil.
They are controlled by the hot oil flow controller, 10-210-FIC-061/071, reset by sensitive
tray temperature controller, TIC-066/076. Its action is overridden by the bottom product
temperature, 10-210-TIC-069/079, in case too low bottom temperature.
The stabilized condensates from the bottom of the Condensate Stabilizers are
independently sent in series to:

Major process variables, which control and optimize the process, are described
below. The variables related to the Condensate Desalters are to be referred to the
Operation and Maintenance Manual submitted by NATCO JAPAN.
The pressure controller, PIC-115, controls the operating pressure (9.7 barG) of 10-210-
VA-001A/B at which 3-phase separation of gas, wet oil and water is conducted. The
wet oil flow rate is under a flow / level cascade control loop, LC-FC-012/022.
Unexpected feed V/F and flow rate may affect the inlet separators operation. Bigger
wet oil flow rate may deteriorate the dehydration/desalting performance in Desalters.
On the other hand, smaller wet oil flow rate may raise the storage temperature of
stabilized condensate product due to insufficient heat exchanges.

Unexpected feed compositions and flow rate may affect the stabilizer operation. The
higher RVP value, i.e., lighter condensate product means less lighter components are
recovered in OVHD vapor. Therefore, in order to recover more lighter components, the
following actions are to be taken.
A) Increase the hot oil flow rate in Stabilizer Reboilers, 10-210-HA-004A/B, by 10-
210-FIC-061/071. The hot oil flow rate is reset by sensitive tray temperature

Hence, during normal operation, each of the two sets of pumps, Booster and Export, is
designed with two pumps running, the third one being used as a common spare in

However, in case of high or low liquid level, Export Pumps’ speed will be reset by the
liquid level, 10-220-LIC-001/011, of the tank that is processing condensate to the
pumps. Proper level tank signal selection is ensured by a dedicated hand switch, 10-

Off-spec Condensate
Oil Transportation
At discharge of the Export Pumps, condensate is mixed with NGL cut from the Dew
Point Control Units 11-340 and 12-340 and feed the liquid cross-country pipeline under
pressure control, controlling the receiving pressure on pipeline side by the PCV in
Coastal plant.
There are two PCVs. One is in Desert plant and the other is in Coastal plant. The PCV,
10-220-PV-034, in Desert plant is fully open in normal operation to avoid the hunting
with the other, 40-320-PV-303, in Coastal plant. 10-220-PV-034 will be activated only
when the downstream pressure of the PCV is high in order to protect the pipeline
against the overpressure.
Flow indications of the three liquid production lines that feed the pipeline (one of
stabilized condensate and two of NGL) are made available and computed to a ratio
output signal, equipped with relevant alarms so as to keep operation within a fully safe
range of conditions with regard to the pipeline liquid boiling point specification.
A pure NGL cut, i.e., free of any stabilised condensate, shall not be transported to the
Coastal Plant from safety reasons.
HIPS
HIPS is provided to protect the condensate transportation facility from overpressure and
to prevent consequent rupture of onshore condensate export pipeline from Desert plant
to Coastal plant, which is approx. 520km in length.
Two out of three high pressure switches, 10-220-PT-001A/B/C, will initiate the
shutdown of two SDVs, 10-220-SDV-035/036, in series on the line as shown below.

The HIPS system on the condensate export line meets the probabilistic SIL 2 requirement based
on a full stroke test interval of two years.
The HIPS system meets the architectural SIL 2 requirements as the test interval does not affect
the Safe Failure Fraction or Hardware Fault Tolerance of initiators, logic solver or final element.
Based on the consideration of both probabilistic requirements and architectural constraints, the
HIPS system meets the SIL 2 requirement, which is the same as that of a pressure safety valve.
A bypass line of the storage tanks is installed for an emergency operation situation,
where one tank is in shutdown condition and the other tank is requested for off spec
product. This line connects the product line from Liquid Stabilization Unit with the
suction line of Liquid Booster Pump directly. In this situation, the min flow lines of Liquid
Booster Pumps and Liquid Export Pumps cannot be used.
Major process variables, which control and optimize the process, are described
below.
Flow controller, FIC-022, controls the recycle rate to 102-10-VA-001A/B. The recycle
rate should be adjusted by taking into considerations the liquid level in off-spec
condensate tank and the operating capability of Liquid Stabilization Unit.
Bigger recycle flow rate may have a big impact on the liquid stabilization unit. On the
other hand, smaller recycle flow rate may fully occupy the off-spec condensate storage
tank.

Acid gas reacts with the Diethanolamine (DEA) according to the following reactions.
The main overall reaction equations, in which “R” denotes the ethanol group (HO-
-
CH2-CH2 ), can be represented as follows:
- +
CO2 + 2R2NH R2NCOO + R2NH2
- +
CO2 + H2O + R2NH HCO3 + R2NH2
The equilibrium of the above reactions lies at the right-hand side of the equations at
lower temperature and higher pressure (removal of the impurities from the gas). At
higher temperature and lower pressure (as applied in the regeneration) the reaction
is reversed, resulting the removal of the acid gas from the DEA solution.

3.5.2.1 General
The Gas sweetening units mainly consist of two parallel and identical units 11-330
and 12-330. These two units are identically installed into two corresponding parallel
and identical gas trains, which also includes the Dehydration units 11-310 and 12-
310, the Dew point control units 11-340 and 12-340, as well as the Gas train
hydrocarbon drain facilities units 11-550 and 12-550.
These two gas trains are operated independently one from the other. No main
processing interconnections are provided.
In addition to the above, the Gas sweetening units also include common facilities,
itemized in 10-330, located in the condensate stabilization block (Zone A1).
The description below makes reference to unit 11-330 and also applies to unit 12-
330.
Raw gas is fed to the Gas sweetening unit from the Inlet gas reception facilities unit
300, together with Raw gas from the Off-gas compression facilities unit 361, for the
first period of the plant operation, when the Inlet gas compression unit 360 is not yet

After the first pressure plateau period of the gas field, the Inlet gas compression unit
is required to be put in operation and the gas is fed to the Gas sweetening unit from
the Inlet gas compressor 2nd stage discharge drum 10-360-VA-003A/B/C/D.
Raw gas is fed to the Amine unit feed gas filter 11-330-CL-001A/B where solids, up
to 5 micron, are filtrated. As an additional design requirement, filters feature small
slugs handling capabilities because of the retrograde condensation. One filter is
normally in operation, the other one is in stand-by mode.
Liquid from the filters is withdrawn from the two compartment boots under level
control, and sent to the Inlet separator 10-210-VA-001A/B.
Liquid level of the filter is on off controlled by 11-330-LIC-021/022 for “A” filter and
11-330-LIC-023/024 for “B” filter.
The filters outlet gas is mixed with regeneration gas recycle from the Dehydration
unit 310, and cooled down in the Feed gas trim cooler 11-330-HA-001, using cooling
water, prior to be sent to the Absorber inlet separator 11-330-VA-002.
The trim cooler outlet temperature is controlled at 40 degC by the cooling water flow
rate to the exchanger, 11-330-TIC-031.
The hand control by-pass valve 11-330-HV-031 is provided for additional
temperature and gas dew point tuning.
The absorber inlet separator 11-330-VA-002 is vertically installed equipped with one
even-flow type distributor and one internal heavy-duty mist eliminator, so as to
minimize the risk of liquid hydrocarbon carry-over to the Amine absorber 11-330-VE-
001.
Liquid condensate from the Absorber inlet separator is sent under the level control
11-330-LIC-031 to the Inlet separator 10-210-VA-001A/B.
The separator overhead gas is split into two streams. One stream bypasses the
amine section, the remaining part feeding the HP absorber 11-330-VE-001.
Inside one gas train, the split of flows is controlled by the flow ratio controller 11-330-
FFC-052, reset over a dead band by a pressure controller, installed on the discharge
manifold of the Inlet gas compressors.
A bias relay allows modulating the pressure signal sent to the two flow control loops
installed in each gas train.
During the first three years of operation, when the Inlet gas compression unit 10-360
is not yet put on stream, the split flow control is achieved in unit 10-300.

11-330-VA-004. The cooler outlet temperature is controlled by 11-330-TIC-051 to
keep the gas temperature more than the hydrocarbon dew point, so as to avoid the
contamination of the amine system by liquid hydrocarbon.
A three-phase separation is achieved in the Treated gas KO drum 11-330-VA-004.
The decanted water is sent under level control 11-330-LDIC-053 to the Rich amine
flash drum 11-330-VA-003. The liquid hydrocarbon is sent to the Inlet separator 10-
210-VA-001A/B if any.
The hydrocarbon skimming is also available from the K.O drum to remove the
mixture of hydrocarbon / amine / emulsion from the system. The mixture is sent
either to the Skimming pot 11-330-VA-007, or directly routed to the Amine recovery
drum 10-330-VA-001 located in the common facilities.
Treated gas free of CO2 is mixed to the CO2 rich bypass gas stream and sent to the
Gas dehydration unit 310.
The expander 11-340-ML-001 in the Dew point control (DPCU) unit 340 is controlling
the gas train pressure at this step.
At the outlet of the Gas sweetening unit, a pressure blow-off valve 11-330-PV-052 to
flare is provided for the start-up and upset.
Treated gas is washed with circulating water in the top trays of the HP absorber 11-
330-VE-001 to reduce the amine carry-over. It also works as an efficient foam
breaker in case of foamy operation. The water drawn off from the HP absorber top
chimney tray is pumped by the Treated gas water wash pumps 11-330-PA-003A/B

(2) Temperature
The higher feed gas temperature is expected by the opening of a hand control by-
pass 11-330-HV-031 for the additional temperature and gas dew point tuning. The
higher feed gas temperature, which has a negative effect on acid gas equilibrium,
requires more lean amine circulation for sufficient driving force of absorption in the
HP absorber to maintain the specification in treated gas.
(3) Pressure
The deviations of feed gas pressure are generally small. It is reflected in the acid gas
partial pressures. Higher lean amine circulation is required for the lower feed gas
pressure.
(1) Composition
(2) Temperature
Since equilibrium partial pressure of acid gas over lean amine solution at lower
temperature, a lower CO2 contents in treated gas is possible at lower lean amine
solution temperature.
However, too low solution temperature may cause foaming of solution because of
condensation of hydrocarbon from the feed gas.
A too low solution temperature also introduces increase of the viscosity of lean
amine solution, leading to constrains of tray efficiency.
Lean amine solution temperature is controlled at design figure of 50 degC.
Less lean amine circulation rate lowers absorption capacity due to constraint of tray
efficiencies. While the acid gas is absorbed by lean amine solution, absorption heat
is generated, and less amount of lean amine solution causes increase of lean amine
temperature, hence less lean amine circulation also causes insufficient driving force
for absorption because of the higher equilibrium partial pressure in gas phase over

The top temperature in the Regenerator is controlled the temperature controller 11-

carryover to molecular sieves beds in Gas Dryers 11-310-VK-001A/B/C. The
Coalescer features a two-compartment type design. The bottom compartment acts
as a KO drum and is designed for this purpose. Gas from the bottom compartment
feeds the top compartment through the vertical coalescing elements. Liquid
collected from the coalescing elements is removed from the drum to a side liquid
pipe receiver and routed to the Inlet Separators 10-210-VA-001A/B under liquid level
control 11-310-LIC-013.
The gas from the Inlet Dryer Coalescer is then routed to the molecular sieves beds of
the Gas Dryers 11-310-VK-001A/B/C, in which moisture content is reduced below 0.1
ppmv. The gas flows downwards through two parallel Dryers while the third Dryer is
reactivated. Dry gas exits the bottom of the two Dryers and flows to the Dry Gas Filter
11-310-CL-001A/B to filter any molecular sieve powders in the dry gas. Dry gas from
11-310-CL-001A/B is sent to the downstream Dew Point Control Unit 340.
A silica or alumina gel layer is installed on top of the beds, so as to increase integrity of
the molecular sieves beds.
Temperature recorders installed at various locations inside the beds allow backing up
the sequence monitoring. In the same way, a sample probe for moisture analysing is
provided in the bottom part of each bed so as to anticipate any moisture breakthrough.
At the outlet of the Dehydration Unit a pressure blow-off valve to flare, 11-310-PV-052,
is installed for start-up purpose and upset conditions.
The regeneration gas is withdrawn from the Dry Gas Filter outlet. The flow rate of the
regeneration gas is controlled by 11-310-FIC-041 via a flow control valve 11-310-FV-
041 on the regeneration gas line. The dry gas is sent to the Regeneration Gas
Separator 11-310-VA-003, where hydrocarbon condensation appeared by the pressure

The overhead gas from 11-310-VA-003 is sent to the Regeneration Gas Heater 11-310-
FA-0011, which is of fuel gas fired type. The outlet temperature of the Regeneration
Gas Heater is controlled by 11-310-TIC-041 on the outlet line and 11-310-PIC-044 via
11-310-PV-044 on the fuel gas line. The heated gas is sent to the Dryer in
regeneration sequence to remove water from molecular sieves.
The regeneration gas from the Dryer is cooled down in the Regeneration Gas Cooler
11-310-HC-001 and sent to the Regeneration Compressor KO Drum 11-310-VA-002.
Water is knocked down and routed to the process oily water system via 11-310-LV-051,
while the overhead gas is compressed through the volumetric type Regeneration Gas
Compressor 11-310-KB-001 A/B. During normal operation, one compressor is in
operation, the other being in stand-by mode. At compressor discharge, the gas is
cooled down through the Regeneration Gas Compressor Cooler 11-310-HC-002 and
recycled back to the inlet of the Feed Gas Trim Cooler 11-330-HA-001, located in the
Gas Sweetening Unit 11-330.
The regeneration circuit pressure control is achieved via the volumetric compressor
spill back line with 11-310-PV-051B. Also, on the Compressor KO Drum overhead
gas line, a pressure blow-off valve to flare 11-310-PV-051A is installed for start-up
purpose and upset conditions.
The function of the Gas Dehydration Unit is to maintain the moisture content of the
treated gas to the following Dew Point Control Unit below 0.1 ppmv. This is normally
accomplished by the automatic controls, but operators need to monitor the process
variables and to intervene when changes occur which would cause the treated gas
quality to vary outside the allowable range.
The major variables, which control and optimize the process, are described below.
The temperature of the feed gas existing 11-310-HA-001 (hot side) directly
influences the water load on the Dryers. An increase in the temperature of the gas
leaving 11-310-HA-001 increases the water contents in the vapor phase (kg-

The purpose of the Dry Gas Demercurization Unit (Unit 350) is to remove trace
quantities of mercury present in the feed to the Dew Point Control Unit (Unit 340), and
this protects the Cold Box and Expander impeller made of aluminium against corrosion.
Eliminating mercury from hydrocarbon gas or liquid requires the use of a mercury
trapping material which is metal sulphide supported on activated alumina. The
contained sulphur, vital for fixation of the mercury, is chemically bound to the carrier
until it is needed for reaction with the mercury. Mercury is trapped in the form of
cinnabar which is fixed onto the mercury trapping material following the equation
below:
It is possible to reduce the mercury content in the outlet gas to less than 10 nano-
grams/Nm3.
The Dry Gas Demercurization Unit consists of two parallel and identical units 11-350
and 12-350. The following equipments are provided for the unit.

The Dry Gas Demercurization Unit consists of two parallel and identical units 11-350
and 12-350. These two units are identically installed into two corresponding parallel
and identical gas trains, which also includes the Gas Sweetening Units 11-330 and 12-
330, the Gas Dehydration Units 11-310 and 12-310, the Dew Point Control Units 11-
340 and 12-340, as well as the Gas Train Hydrocarbon Drain Facilities Units 11-550
and 12-550. These two gas trains are operated independently one from the other. No
main processing connections are provided.
The description below makes reference to Unit 11-350 but is also applicable to unit 12-
350.
The feed to the Dry Gas Demercurization Unit is the treated gas in the Gas
Dehydration Unit, which is dry hydrocarbon gas in 34 deg C at 65.8 barA and the flow
rate of 286000 kg/hr. The gas from the Gas Dehydration Unit is sent to the
Demercurization Reactor 11-350-VK-001, and passes down through the fixed
adsorbent bed in the Demercurization Reactor. The contained mercury in the feed gas
is removed from the gas by reaction with the sulphur impregnated in the bed.
During initial start-up period of the Demercurization Reactor, the treated gas from
the bottom of the Demercurization Reactor in 34 deg C at 65.5 barA is fed to the
Demercurization Filter 11-350-CL-001 to pick up dusts formed in the loading of the
adsorbent bed considering slight attrition of the material, and then fed to the
downstream Dew Point Control Unit 11-340 at 65.1 barA. The filter is bypassed in
normal operation and the gas from the bottom of the Demercurization Reactor is
sent to the Unit 11-340 without filtration.
There are no temperature, pressure or flow controls in this system. All conditions are
resultant.

The purpose of the Dew Point Control Unit is to extract propane and heavier
components as NGL from the Dry Natural Gas feed; meanwhile, to control H.C. dew
point of the residual gas as the Sales Gas so as to satisfy the product specification.
â
The Cryomax patented process, which is cryogenic expansion process with turbo-
expander, is used for this purpose in the Unit. A feed gas stream <01> under high
pressure is cooled by heat exchanger with other streams of the process. As the feed
gas is cooled, liquids is partially condensed and collected in a separator as high-
pressure liquids <02> containing some of the desired propane and heavier
components. The vapor <03> remaining from the partial condensation is passed
through a work expansion machine (Expander) to a lower pressure at which additional
liquids are condensed as a result of further cooling of the stream by gas expansion
effect.
The expanded stream <04> then enters the lower section of a contact purifying-
refrigerating column (Purifier) and it is contacted with the cold liquid stream <05>
containing lighter components (methane and ethane). This cold liquid stream <05>
condenses propane and heavier components from the expanded vapor stream <04> in
the Purifier. The overhead gas from the Purifier <06> is sent to heat exchanger as
cooling medium, and then compressed by a compressor driven by the turbo-expander
as the Sales Gas <07>.
The high-pressure liquids <02> from the separator is expanded through an expansion
valve to a lower pressure, and the vaporization occurring during expansion of the
liquids results in further cooling of the stream. This expanded mixture stream <08>
feeds the Purifier bottom section for further distillation.
The bottom liquids <09> from the Purifier feed into the distillation column (Deethanizer)
after being utilized as cooling medium for heat recovery <10>. In the Deethanizer, the
feed stream is distilled to separate residual methane, ethane, nitrogen, and other
volatile gases as overhead vapor <11> from the desired propane and heavier
components as bottom NGL product <12>. (Refer to Fig. 3.8.1)

340. Both 11-340 and 12-340 Units implement the Cryomax patented process.
Dry gas from the Dehydration Unit 11-310 feeds the feed gas path of the Cold Box 11-
340-HH-001, which is a brazed aluminium plate-fin type exchanger. Through the Cold
Box, the dry gas is cooled down, against the sales gas product stream acting as the
main cold medium of the exchanger, so as to feed the Expander 11-340-ML-001 at an
optimum temperature level. The feed gas temperature and pressure to the Expander is
of big impact on the unit performances. The bypass line with a temperature control
valve 11-340-TV-022 is provided on the feed gas path of the Cold Box, and the feed
temperature to the Expander is adjusted by a temperature controller 11-340-TIC-022.
The gas/liquid mixture from the Cold Box feeds the Expander Inlet KO Drum 11-340-
VA-001, where H.C. liquid phase is dropped down. The drum is designed vertically for
liquid / gas separation, and equipped with an internal even-flow type inlet distributor
and one heavy-duty wire mesh.

Liquid from the drum bottom is sent to the bottom section of Purifier under 11-340-LIC-
011 and 11-340-FIC012 cascade control.
The drum overhead gas feeds the Expander. The machine controls the upstream gas
train pressure by acting on its inlet guide vanes. The pressure controller 11-340-PIC-
023A at the inlet of Expander controls the angle of the inlet guide vanes and actually
the shaft speed of the Expander is adjusted. J-T valves 11-340-PV-023A/B are
provided on a bypass line of the Expander so that all the Expander feed can be
bypassed in the case of Expander’s out of service. Also, in normal operation of
Expander, the J-T valve might partially open by split range control via 11-340-PIC-023B
so as to prevent over-speed of the Expander’s shaft.
At the inlet of the unit, one start-up line fed by sales gas withdrawn from the sales gas
pipeline allows to enhance start-up procedures, providing dry gas for proper unit chilling
and commissioning.
At the exhaust of the Expander, the partially condensed vapour stream feeds the
Purifier bottom section, as the main feed stream, through an even-flow type inlet
distributor.
Liquid stream from the Expander Inlet KO drum will be a flashed mix-phase stream via
11-340-FV-012 and feeds the Purifier bottom liquid hold-up zone.
On the top section, the Purifier is fed by an ethane rich stream recycled from the
downstream Deethanizer Reflux Drum 11-340-VA-002 via the Cold Box, which acts as
a reflux for the Purifier tower. The condensing requirements of the ethane rich recycle
stream are achieved in the Cold Box 11-340-HH-001.
The Purifier is trayed with two-path valve trays. It also includes a top dry tray installed
below one heavy-duty wire mesh. The vaporisation of Ethane and lighter components
occurs along with the condensation of Propane and heavier through the trays, and thus
increases the Propane recovery in NGL.
An internal methanol sparger is provided below the mesh to fight against potential
hydrate formation and plugging in the mesh.
From the bottom of the Purifier, the NGL cut is pumped by the Deethanizer Feed
Pumps 11-340-PA-001 A/B under 11-340-LIC-012 / 11-340-FIC-013 cascade control.
Actually, the flow control reset is specified to be active over a dead band, allowing the
downstream Deethanizer section to be operated in more stable conditions.
The Purifier overhead gas is of sales gas quality and it is routed back to the Cold Box
acting as the main cold medium of the exchanger. Upstream of the Cold Box, it is
mixed with a small split stream from the Deethanizer overhead, which is dedicated to
the Deethanizer system pressure control by 11-340-PIC-012 via 11-340-PV-012.

cool down the raw gas feed to the Unit 310 Dryers. This is implemented in the
Gas/Gas Exchanger 11-310-HH-001. Two temperature control valves installed on the
sales gas side of the Gas/Gas exchanger, e.g. 11-310-TV-001B in the main stream and
11-310-TV-001A in the exchanger bypass line, so as to provide efficient control of the
Dryers beds contact temperature.
Several Methanol injection points have been provided at various locations to fight
against potential hydrate formation. All the injection points are hard-piped with a
Methanol package, equipped with all relevant facilities: methanol storage drum,
injection pumps, etc.
Prior to feed the Deethanizer, the Purifier bottom NGL cut is processed successively
through the Deethanizer condenser 11-340-HH-002 and through the Cold Box 11-340-
HH-001, acting as the cold medium in both exchangers. The Deethanizer condenser is
a brazed aluminium plate-fin type exchanger.
The Deethanizer is provided with overhead condensing and reflux facilities. The
overhead gas from the Deethanizer tower feeds the Condenser downwards to the
Deethanizer reflux Drum 11-340-VA-002, where liquid and gas are separated. The gas
leaves the drum through an internal wire mesh, before feeding the Purifier section as
the Purifier reflux stream. As previously mentioned, the Deethanizer system pressure is
controlled by an overhead pressure controller 11-340-PIC-012 with a slight split stream
bypassing the ethane rich condensing path of the Cold Box. Also, a pressure control
valve 11-340-PV-031 installed on the Deethanizer overhead line provides flexibility for
start-up and upset operations.
The Reflux Drum liquid is pumped by the Deethanizer Reflux Pumps 11-340-PA-
003A/B and sent back to the Deethanizer top under 11-340-LIC-032 / 11-340-FIC-052
cascade control. A hand control valve 11-340-HV-031 allows tuning the condensing
duty. The system is normally operated with the hand control valve closed.
The hold-up liquids in the Deethanizer bottom section are heated by the Deethanizer
Reboiler 11-340-HH-001. It is a kettle type exchanger, using hot oil as the hot source.

The temperature in the bottom section is controlled by 11-340-TIC-034 and the hot oil
flow controller 11-340-FIC-031 under cascade control.
The liquid at bottom of the Deethanizer is almost free of ethane and lighter
components, and is routed to the NGL export facilities prior to feed the liquid pipeline.
The NGL cut is subcooled in the NGL Cooler 11-340-HA-002. The cooler uses cooling
water as the cold sauce. It is to be installed at ground, in order to avoid boiling NGL
vaporisation. NGL is then routed under level control 11-340-LIC-031 to the NGL Surge
Drum 11-340-VA-004.
So as to keep constant the operating pressure of the NGL Surge Drum, a hot gas
bypass stream is withdrawn from the Deethanizer bottom section. The operating
pressure of the NGL Surge Drum is controlled by 11-340-PIC-043A via 11-340-PV-
043A on the hot gas bypass line. Also, a pressure control valve 11-340-PV-043B
installed on the NGL Surge Drum overhead line provides flexibility for start-up and
upset operations.
NGL from the Surge Drum is pumped by the NGL Expedition Pumps 11-340-PA-002
A/B to the inlet of the liquid pipeline, where it is mixed with the stabilized condensate
production from Unit 220 together with the NGL cut produced in the second Unit 12-
340, which is installed in the second gas train. The NGL is exported under 11-340-LIC-
042 / 11-340-FIC043 cascade control.
The major variables, which control and optimize the process, are described below.
In case of the Expander shutdown, the Unit is operated with the Joule-Thompson valve
installed on the by-pass line of the Expander. On-specification Sales Gas is obtained by
mixing the gas from the two trains, i.e., one train in normal Expander operation and the
other in Joule-Thomson operation.
1) Temperature
The operating temperatures of the Unit increases comparing with the one in normal
operation because the lower thermal expansion effect through Joule-Thomson valve
than through the Expander.
2) Pressure
Since the Expander Recompressor is bypassed in the sales gas line and the suction
pressure of Export Gas Compressor in Unit 10-362 is maintained by 10-360-PIC-095,
the system operating pressure downstream of Joule-Thompson valve is higher than the
one in normal operation accordingly.

the Unit.
In the NO-NGL operation mode, it is assumed that the liquid pipeline is not available for
some reasons (maintenance, etc.). The main issue of this operating case is to get rid
of the LPG cut that cannot be stored in the Stabilized Condensate Storage Tank of the
Unit 10-220. Therefore, the maximum amount of LPG is left in the Sales Gas with
respect to the Sales Gas specification, whilst the remaining amount of LPG has to be
flared. For this purpose, in this operating mode, both gas trains are operated with the
turbo-expander shut down, the expansion being carried by a Joule-Thompson valve.
LPG from the Deethanizer bottom is routed to the Rerun Drum of the Unit 10-210 under
11-340-LIC-031 / 11-340-FIC-053 cascade control. The flashed vapor in the Rerun
Drum at atmospheric pressure is flared and the remaining heavier LPG is recycled back
to the Inlet Separator 10-210-VA-001 of the Liquid Stabilization Unit and reprocessed in
the Condensate Stabilizer. At this time, the NGL Surge Drum and the NGL Export
Pump are in shutdown.
The Unit has flexibility in operation with no NGL production and maximum NGL
production by running with a combination of Expander and J-T valve. This depends
upon the market demand of NGL production.
In Expander/JT-valve parallel operation, the control of reducing Inlet Guide Vane
(IGV) and opening JT-valve will be manually performed by either of the following
procedures (a) or (b):
(a) The 11-340-PIC-023A will be switched from auto to manual mode, and an
operator adjusts the signal output from PIC-023A to IGV so as to reduce its
opening range with monitoring the Expander shaft speed. The JT-valve will be
opened in certain range by 11-340-PIC-023B under split range control
accordingly.

years, process re-circulating valves are partially opened by manual to avoid
machinery damage & inconvenience operation.
In automatic mode, the anti-surge controller ensure the Anti-Surge protection with
the following functions:
- PID controller who allows smooth control of the compressor on the Anti-Surge
line.
- Adaptative Gain, this permit a quick response of the controller in case of the
operative point cross the surge line.
- Switching derivate: In case that the operation point is quickly approaching the
surge line this function allows a proportional to the speed response of the
controller.

The unit consists into two identical, complete and separate compression trains.
During normal operation, one compression train is in operation and one is in stand-
by mode.
The Raw Gas from the Inlet Oil Slugcatcher KO Drum 10-200-VA-001A/B, from the
Inlet Separators 10-210-VA-001A/B and from the Stabilizer Reflux Drums 10-210-
VA-002A/B are sent to Offgas Compressor Filter 10-361-CL-001A/B, one being in
operation and the other one in stand-by mode. The design purpose of filters is to
protect the compression facilities against solids. Also, filters have been requested to
handle with presence of small liquid slugs.
Liquid phase from the filters is sent to the closed drain system with on-off level
controller 10-361-LIC-001/002 for A filter, LIC-003/004 for B filter. Filter outlet gas
stream feeds the downstream compression train.
The following description is based on train A (Unit 1A-361), but is also applicable to
train B (Unit 1B-361).
The raw gas, possibly with the recycle gas from the 1st Stage "process recirculation
line", feeds the Offgas Compressor 1st Stage KO Drum 10-361-VA-001 A. As a
matter of fact, such "process recirculation lines" are installed around each
compressors casing, as permanent operation below the anti-surge capacity of the
compression trains is expected to occur. The design intention is not to use the
"normal" anti-surge lines of the compressors on a permanent basis.
Liquid phase from the 1st Stage KO Drum is sent to the closed drain system with on-
off level controller 1A-361-LIC-011. The overhead gas is sent to the suction of
Offgas Compressor 1st Stage 10-361-KA-001A.

Stages have the same shaft and are driven by the same gas turbine 10-361-MT-
001A. Also, the overall compression train anti-surge control system has been shown
with two dedicated anti-surge lines around each casing.
(1) Off Gas Compressor 1st stage Suction and 2nd Stage Discharge Pressure
Control
This is an override switch control loop to control the 1st stage suction and 2nd stage
discharge pressure. The function of the low selector switch 1A-361-PY-011 is
important in this philosophy of pressure control. It takes three input value, one is the
output of 1st stage suction pressure controller 1A-361-PIC-011, other is the output of
2nd stage discharge pressure controller 1A-361-PIC-724 and third one is the value
selected by the operator through hand controller 1A-361-HIC-015. It selects the lowest
value out of the three input values and provides it to the gas turbine speed controller
1A-361-SIC-701 (compressor/turbine performance control), which takes this value as its
set point and maintains the turbine speed by controlling fuel gas flow.
1st stage suction controller 1A-361-PIC-011 will function in direct acting mode (the
output of the controller will increase if 1st stage suction pressure increases) and the
2nd stage discharge pressure controller 1A-361-PIC-724 will be in the reverse acting
mode (output of the controller will decrease if 2nd stage discharge pressure increases).
In normal operation, operator will set the value of hand controller at 100% and set point
of 2nd stage discharge controller at 74.8 barg, which will keep the output of the
discharge controller higher than the 1st stage suction pressure controller. So the lower
selector switch will select 1st stage suction controller to provide set point to gas speed
controller.
If, in some case, the 2nd stage discharge pressure increases, the output of the 2nd
stage discharge pressure controller will decrease enough to be less than the output of
1st stage suction pressure controller and will be selected as set point for the gas speed
controller, which will ultimately reduce the 2nd stage discharge pressure by slowing
down the speed of turbine.
Operator can control the speed of the turbine during start-up or during normal operation
by using hand controller.

discharge pressure. (Discharge pressure controller PIC-724 governs SV-701
and overrides the signal from suction pressure controller PIC-011.)
This control provides equal distribution of Raw Gas flow to Gas Sweetening Trains
1&2 (Unit 11/12-330) from Off Gas Compression (Unit 10-361). This is a cascade
control loop. Pressure controller 10-361-PIC-007 provides set point to both the flow
controllers 10-361-FIC-001 and 10-361-FIC-002 through Flow Ratio control block 10-
361-FY-003. The value of ratio and bias for this block should be configurable at
supervisor security level.
As the pressure increases, the set point will also increase and flow of raw gas will
increase as a result i.e. pressure controller and both flow controllers will be
configured in direct mode.

Also, during normal operation, a take-off line supplies fuel gas to the fuel gas system
(Unit 11/12-420), the demand being driven by the fuel gas balance management
system. However, in case of excessive fuel gas demand and so as protect
compression operation, a flow controller 1A-361-FIC-021 becomes active to limit the
gas draw-off to the fuel gas system.

1X-362-SIC-701. The two running gas turbines are to be equal speed by controlling
fuel gas flow.
(2) Export gas Compressor Common Suction and 2nd Stage Discharge Pressure
Control
This is an override switch control loop to control the common suction and 2nd stage
discharge pressure. The function of the low selector switch 10-362-PY-095A is
important in this philosophy of pressure control. It takes three input value, one is the
output of common suction pressure controller 10-362-PIC-095 (same signal for all three
compressors A, B and C), other is the output of 2nd stage discharge pressure controller
1A-362-PIC-724 and third one is the value selected by the operator through hand
controller 10-362-HIC-005A. It selects the lowest value out of the three input values
and provides it to the gas turbine speed controller 1A-362-SIC-701 (compressor/turbine
performance control), which takes this value as its set point and maintains the turbine
speed by controlling fuel gas flow.
Common suction controller 10-362-PIC-095 will function in direct acting mode (the
output of the controller will increase if common suction pressure increases) and the 2nd
stage discharge pressure controller 1A-362-PIC-724 will be in the reverse acting mode
(output of the controller will decrease if 2nd stage discharge pressure increases).
In normal operation, operator will set the value of hand controller at 100% and set point
of 2nd stage discharge controller at 86.4 barg, which will keep the output of the 2nd
stage discharge controller higher than the common suction pressure controller. So the
lower selector switch will select common suction controller to provide set point to gas
speed controller.
If, in some case, the 2nd stage discharge pressure increases, the output of the 2nd
stage discharge pressure controller will decrease enough to be less than that of
common suction pressure controller and will be selected as set point for the gas speed
controller, which will ultimately reduce the 2nd stage discharge pressure by slowing
down the speed of turbine.
Operator can control the speed of the turbine during start-up or during normal operation
by using hand controller.

limit the discharge pressure of the compressor. If the discharge pressure of the
compressor rises above the discharge pressure limit setpoint (86.4 barG), the gas
turbine speed will decreased to reduce the discharge pressure. (Discharge
pressure controller 1A-362-PIC-724 governs 1A-362-SIC-701 and overrides the

may be still fully closed, if operating point is on the right side of anti-surge control

signal 1A-362-FT-021 with pressure 1A-362-PT-032 and temperature 1A-362-TT-
003 and provides process variable to the flow controller 1A-362-FIC-021.
During normal operation (two export gas compressor running), control valve 1A-362-
FV-021 remains open, because set point of the controller 1A-362-FIC-021 is kept
higher than the actual flow demand (50% of set point). Fuel gas take-off line of each
compressor is connected to the common MP fuel gas header that supplied gas to
the MP fuel gas system (Unit 11/12-420). As the fuel gas demand of fuel gas
system is supplied from both two running compressors (50% + 50%), so the fuel gas
supplying valves remain almost full open in normal conditions. But if one
compressor trips, the other running compressor will tend to supply the full demand of
fuel gas system immediately, and possible to go to surge by reducing 2nd stage flow
rate. To avoid this condition, flow controller will adjust the valve position immediately
to a pre-calculated position (partially closed position). Pre-calculated position is the
position of the valve that supplies 50% of the user demand in normal operation.
Remaining fuel gas is supplied from sales gas back up line taken-off from pipeline

Note: At the start up, compressor vendor PLC requires a “Start Permissive” signal
from DCS to start the compressor. This signal will be generated by DCS
depending on the following conditions:
1) 10-362-MOV-001 Open
2) 10-362-SDV-013 Open
3) 10-362-MOV-002 Open

Please note that ASCV opening signals are included in start-permissive from
compressor vendor PLC itself.
This permissive signal will automatically be issued if all the above conditions
are satisfied and will be sent to compressor vendor PLC through soft link.
After startup this signal will no more be affective even if it goes off due to
the failure of any of its conditions.

100%. The lower selector switch 10-362-PY-095A will select suction or
discharged pressure controller (10-362-PIC-095 or 724) to provide set point to
gas speed controller and compressor load shearing is started.
Note: In normal operation, operator will set the value of hand controller at 100%
and set point of 2nd stage discharge controller at 86.4 barg, which will keep the
output of the 2nd stage discharge controller higher than the common suction
pressure controller. So the lower selector switch will select common suction
controller to provide set point to gas speed controller.

The main responsibility of this unit operator is to produce on-spec stabilized condensate
and recover lighter components from condensate. This is normally accomplished by
automatic controls. With respect to the Condensate Desalters, refer to the Operation
and Maintenance Manual submitted by NATCO JAPAN.
(b) External variables, which the unit operator has little or no control over such as
feed composition, ambient temperature, and shipping schedule / equipment
efficiency variations.
Check carefully the following operating variables and take proper actions
described in Section 3.2.3.
Two identical liquid stabilization systems are installed in parallel (Train-A & B) except for
condensate desalters, which are a two-stage desalting process. Both two trains are
normally in service under the first pressure/production plateau period of the oil wells.
However, under the conditions of the well depletion, one train operation is
recommended in view of the operational flexibility (turndown ratio).

The liquid in the Rerun Drum can be sent to the following three destinations. However,
Burn Pit Drum should not be normally selected because the product is disposed. In
case the liquid in Rerun Drum is off-spec condensate, the off-spec condensate tank
should be selected as the destination because recycling to Inlet separators will further
deteriorate the unsteady conditions in Liquid Stabilization unit. The selection of Inlet
Separators is to be made after taking into account the operating conditions in Liquid

Basically, vent valves are installed instead of drain valves on the raw gas lines from
Inlet Separators,10-210-VA-001AB, and Stabilizer Reflux Drums,10-210-VA-002AB,
because the condensate accumulation at drain valves will cause the corrosion. Some
drain valves, however, are reluctantly installed from the structural point of view to
remove the condensate accumulation as follows. Regular drain-out operation should be
done to protect against corrosion for the following valves.

the discharge of Liquid Export Pump and then transported to Coastal plant via oil
pipeline under pressure control. Some variations of liquid transportation are expected
such as stabilized condensate only, stabilized condensate plus NGL from one DPCU
train, etc. However, pure NGL transportation, i.e., free of any stabilized condensate,
should be avoided because the Coastal plant cannot receive such a high vapor

In an adsorption mode, wet feed gas enters to the top of the two dryers by
opening automatic sequence valves (UVs) in the feed gas lines. As there are
two on-line moisture analyzers11310AT011/012, so automatic switching will
connect these analyzers to the dryers in adsorption mode by sequence. If any of
the analyzer detects excess moisture at any time before 480 minutes timer
expires, the mode of sequence will be converted from auto to semi-auto mode.
The adsorption mode finishes after 480 minutes.
In regeneration mode, dry regeneration gas enters to the bottom of the dryer by
opening UVs in the regeneration gas lines. The regeneration mode consists of
three phases:
After completion of the regeneration step the bed is kept in standby mode until it
is automatically switched to adsorption mode again.
Duration of regeneration heating /cooling time should be adjusted in
commissioning period, if necessary.
Step 1: After cooling timer for dryer-C expires, a stand-by timer for a dryer-C will
start and 11310UV042 starts to open and 11310UV041, 11310UV025
and 11310UV034 starts to close. Also regeneration gas compressor
11310KB001A goes in full recycle mode and 25% loading is selected

or 11310HS780-1. When 09 minutes expires in the stand-by timer,
11310UV024 starts to open, and after its open status confirmation,
11310UV030 will open. When open status of 11310UV030 is confirmed
and 10 minutes stand-by timer expires, adsorption timer for a dryer-C for
480 minutes will start and a heating timer for dryer-A of 170 minutes will
start.

Step 3: At this step two ramps will be initiated, one to control the flow rate of
treated gas from dry gas filters to regeneration gas separator
11310VA003 and the other to control the temperature of regeneration
gas. In this ramp-up step of regeneration mode, the set point of
11310FIC041 is ramped automatically zero to 1531 kg-mol/h in one
minute by 11310FY041, regeneration gas compressor 11310KB001A/B
(which one is in operation) will be shifted to 100% loading through
11310I7-021 and set point of 11310TIC041 is ramped from 31 to 285 OC
in 05 minutes by 11310TY041 through logic sequence simultaneously.
Pressure controller 11310PIC044 controls fuel gas pressure operating in
a cascade mode with 11310TIC041. In the response of ramp-up,
temperature starts increasing. The time is noted down as “Time A” when
O
temperature of dryer A, 11310TI005, reaches 240 C. A timer started at
O
time A, will check if temperature is kept more than or equal to 240 C for
10 minutes. If the temperature 11310TI005 is kept equal or more the 240
O
C for 10 minutes with in the heating time of 170 minutes, the control will
be shifted to Step 4 after 170 minute heating timer expires, otherwise to
Step 8.
Step 4: Main burner is turned off and disconnection of heater from regeneration is
carried out in this step. 11310UV041 is opened and after receiving its
open status, close position of 11310PV044 is also confirmed before
closing 11310UV042. A regeneration-cooling timer of 60 minutes is
started and set point of 11310TIC041 is changed from 285 to 31OC at the
same time.
Step 6: After 09 minutes of stand-by timer, first step of putting the dryer A in the
adsorption mode will be taken by opening 11310UV011 and when its
open status is confirmed, 11310UV013 valve will be opened.

The Dew Point Control Unit operates in the Expander mode normally. The pressure
upstream of the Expander (high pressure section) is controlled by 11-340-PIC-
023A/B; meanwhile, the pressure downstream of the Expander (low pressure
section) is controlled by 10-362-PIC-095 at the suction header of the Export Gas
Compressors in Unit 10-362. Although the pressure control valve 11-340-PV-022 is
provided with 11-340-PIC-022 at the outlet of the DPCU Final Cooler 11-340-HC-
001, 11-340-PV-022 fully open in normal operation. It will be active in case of
significant pressure reduction in the suction of the Export Gas Compressor so as to
keep stable condition in the Unit 11-340. Hence, the set pressure of 11-340-PIC-
022 should be 0.5 bar lower than the normal operating pressure. Operators should
adjust the actual set pressure, if required.
The flow rate of the Deethanizer overhead gas is resultant in normal operation.
Once the flow rate increases by significant upset, it might diverge without limit
because of the stream recycle scheme. The flow control valve 11-340-FV-034 with
11-340-FIC-034 is provided in the Deethanizer overhead line to prevent this
phenomenon. The 11-340-FV-034 fully open in normal operation and the set point
of 11-340-FIC-034 should be 120% of the normal flow rate. Operator should adjust
the actual set pressure, if required.
The Dew Point Control Unit is designed to accomplish the flexible operation in case
that the Expander is out of service or that the liquid pipeline is not available.
In case of the Expander shutdown, the feed gas from the Expander Inlet KO
Drum is fed to the Purifier via Joule-Thomson (J-T) valve installed on the by-
pass line of the Expander. This is achieved automatically by 11-340-PIC-

This section covers the normal shutdown procedure for the Gas Dehydration Unit
11/12-310.
The shutdown of the Unit would be required for the following reasons:
The above items would normally be carried out at the same time. However
unexpected carry-over of Amine solution from the Gas Sweetening Unit may require
the replacement of molecular sieve without the necessity of inspection for other
equipments.
The simultaneous shutdown of both trains (11-310 and 12-310) should be avoided in
normal shutdown to maintain 50% production of the Plant.
The Gas Sweetening Unit is in operation with 50% turndown feed capacity until the
regeneration of molecular sieves is finished.
Two of three molecular sieve beds shall be regenerated completely before shutdown
of the regeneration system. This will ensure that any heavy hydrocarbons and other
contaminants will be driven off the sieves before the Dryers are opened and that the
preparation work and time required for the next start-up of the Dryers can be
minimized.
However, one of three molecular sieve beds cannot be regenerated during shutdown
operation because the Dryer in adsorption cannot be regenerated simultaneously.
Therefore, the purge operation for hydrocarbon vapor and water adsorbed in
molecular sieves shall be done sufficiently by nitrogen gas blowing with 5.0 barG
pressure after depressurizing of the Dryer.
The dryer regeneration during shutdown operation is carried out in two Dryers, i.e.,
one is in adsorption and the other is in regeneration, and the remaining one is
isolated from the operation. This is achieved by the bed operation selector 11-310 –
HS-026.
(1) Select the semi-auto mode of Regeneration Cycle Control Sequence 11-310-I7-
001 by 11-310-HS-023.

8.1 General
Emergency situation will occur unexpectedly and the best preparation is having a
through knowledge of the unit, an anticipation of the most probable problems and
their solution, and a complete familiarization with all normal procedures. Emergency
conditions are usually caused by equipment failure, utility failure, mal-operation and
fire.
If it is necessary to bring the unit off stream due to an emergency situation, the
procedures used for a normal shutdown should be followed as closely as practical.
The emergency shutdown system is provided to actuate the necessary valves for the
emergency situation. However, it is the operator’s responsibility to check that the
emergency shutdown system operates properly when an emergency is occurred.
In most emergencies, two phases of action are required. The first consists of the
immediate action necessary to cope with the situation to safeguard personnel,
equipment and various associated unit. The second consists of completing a full
emergency shutdown, reverting to a normal shutdown, or restoring normal operation.
The procedure following the first phase depends on the type of emergency, the time
available, the duration of emergency or the extent of the emergency.
There will be occasions when mechanical or localized utility failures bring about
shutdown of an individual pump or instrument. In such case, the shutdown may be of
a temporary nature and will not require complete shutdown of the unit, depending on
the duration of such localized failures.
However, in the event of a total utility failure, such as electric power, cooling water or
instrument air, it will be necessary to shutdown the unit completely.
- Fire
ESD, which introduce total plant shutdown and consequent depressurization
operation, is activated automatically when fire is detected through the fire
detection system.
