The purpose of this manual is t o present in a practical way the process design methods to be used by TEP personnel lor quick calculations as well as detailed ones. They have been careluliy
selected by the most experienced engineers o f the Process and Operations Department

ITEPlDDPtDiPlEXPlSUR).
The physical presentation i s different from that of the other TEP/DDP/DIP manuals i n order to
get an easily transportable docurncnt as well as one whlch 1s convenient for photocopies.

Most methods are illustrated by seleeted examples.

Chapter 15 gives a selection of basic data which

is

sufficient for most calculations.

Chapters 16 and 17 consist of blank calculation sheets and Process data sheets that can easily

I I

be photocopied.

Blank pa& :are scattered along the chapters f o r personal notes.

In addition, blank pages are placed a t the end of the manual.

They arc to be used !or comments

regarding the content as well as the typing and prcsentation and should be sent back to TEP/DDP/DIP/EXP/SUR in Paris to be incorporeted in the next rcvislon. Use them plea= : they

will be part of our feedback.

LIQUID-LIQUID SETTLING VELOCITY


(based on Stokes law of terminal settling) The fallowing equation can be used for calculating the settling velocity of water in o i l or the upwards "settling" of o i l i n water. The important fact is to use the viscosity

of the continuous phase 1.e : for oll s e t t l i q upwards through water use the water
v~scoslty,for water settling i n oil use the oil viscosity.

CALCULATION PROCEDURE HORIZONTAL

VESSEL 3 PHASE (See Figure 4)

Sufficient residence time to allow separation of the ail-water mixt!trc as well as the o i l surge and vapour
must be provided.

1. Proceed with steps 1 t o 0 as for a two phase separation. Use L / D = 3 (1st


estimate) and evaluate L.

2. Provision now has to be made ta accommodate both oil and water surge volumes.

Use Tan-Tan Jength 1 'and not rrozz-nozz distance L .


3. Calculate L'LL required to give approx 4 rnins oil surge capacity (minimum).
Inspection will reveal whether sufficient height exists below LLL to include the interface levels. I f not, adjust the vessel Qor L to give sufficient room.

Note:

If the water cut i s very small, consideration may be given t o using a


water boot instead of a baffle arrangement ace step 10.

Having dstkrnined HLL and LLL now set both position and height 01 b f f l c . Calculate terminal settling velocity of watcr droplet (equ 5 sect b.2) and settling t i m t at both HLL and LLL; Volumetric flqw o f llquld h i n both cases the oll plus

the water. Calculate fall distance of a droplet across length o f the drum. Baffle height and positlon can now be set noting :

the baffle should be a t least 75 rnm below the

the baffle should be a t

LLL least 213 down the length of thc drum Irotn the inlet

In some cases the water droplets w i l l settle t o the f l m r in a short distance.

The baffle should s t i l l be s e t at a minimum a1 213 along the vessel.

.

before reaching water outlet. Use area at

t o height determined by

Check If an oil droplet will r i s e through the water layer (from drurn floor) to LIC

LlL

with normal oil + water flowratcs.

(Thls criteria is very rarely governing but must he checked).

7. Calculate water surge time b e t w t t n HI1 and LIL, snd residence time between NIL
and outlet. Remember t o use only one head volume, and length 01 drum upto baffle. Minimum acceptable times are '4-5 rnins. I f calculated times are very long consider using a watcr boot arrangement.

8 . Rationalise all dimensions and "tidytt levels to standard values if possible i.e :
150 mm, 200,250, 300 etc. This allows use o f standard displacers.

9. Rtcalcutate a l l residence times based on "tidicd" levels (if required).


Note : i n calculating the final residence times make sure that the vcsscl tantan length is used and n

1. p.pP~1chBfLlTY

It

is not expected that a hand calculatjon of a tray distillation or absorbtion column

be

performed by the engineer. For the purpose at a feasibility or pre-project rtudy any required r i g o r w s column sizing would be performed using SSI PROCESS simulator, or similar. Should, however, a quick tstlrnati~n of tower diameter and height b e required one of the
most common methods of hand calculation for valve trays is the "GLITSCH

METHOD". An

example of the procedure for this method is given in Section 3.


A detailed mechanical design of a tray column i s beyond the scope of this ~uide. For details

o) see packageunits. on ~ ~ l y ctowers,


2. DESCRIPTION AND NOTE5
2.1.

TRAYS
There arc basically three types of tray used L n dl3tlllation columns ;sieve, bubble cap
and valve trays. Each type has specific applications and flcxibilities dependant an the process criteria. Some of the major aspects a r t detailed as follows :

Bubble caps
Operation
: V s p w r passes through "risers" i n t o the bubble cap then bubbles into

the surrounding liquid on the tray. Bubbling action effects liquidvapwr contact. The liquid exits the tray via outlet weir and

downcomer arrangement to the tray below. Capacity


i

Moderately high t l l i c i e w y (minimum 50 861 i s maintained a t varying

rates due t o weir maintaining liquid head.


Etficiency

: For many years was the most common type of tray-consequently


many publlahed tray eifielencies are available from vendor

aources.

Note : most expensive type of tray.

Application

A l l major services excepts coking. pmlymer formation or other high fouling conditions. Ideal lor use i n low f l o w conditions where tray
must remain flooded to maintain a v a p u r seal.

Tray spacing :

18" Is normal. Consider 24" to 36" for vacuum conditions.

Capacity

As high as or higher than bubble cap trays for design rates or down

Efficiency

Application
:

Generally the same aspects as [or sieve trays. Most valve trays are specialist proprietry design for specific operation problems and capacities. Specialist vendors

include GIitsch, Koch (flexitray), Nutter, Union Carbide. Best choice of tray for distillation application.

CONDENSERS

.
.

Condensers are usually installed on the overhead of fractionation towers t o recover llquid product and provldc internal tower reftux. Design of condensers is covered i n shell

+ tube exchanger section.

Basically two types o f overhead condcnscr txlat, partial and total. When uslng a
total condenser the heat load is equal to the latent heat of the saturated overhead
vapour. The resultant bubble point liquid is split with some returning as

reflux and

the remaining portion as distillate product.


For a partial condenser the vapour withdrawn from the accumulator is in equillbrhm with the returning reflux arfd consequently the condenser i s acting as

an "external" additional tray. The vapwr is normally withdrawn under pressure


control with a l l or part 01 the llquld returning aa rttlux to the column.

2 . 3 .

REBOILERS

Generally three types o f reboiler exist for light hydrocarbon iractionarars. Internal rehoiler external "kt?tltn type external "heat exchanger" type rnmt cases the "heat exchanger".type furnace, electrical therrnosyphons

is preferred for elficiency.

.
-

The heat cxchanger should be located 2-3 rn below the exit nozzle from the

column so that sufficient head is available lor thermal circulation.


Reboilera may be heated by direct lire. electrical coil, steam, closed !>eating medium or process fluid exchange.

.
-

Values of U overall (lncl. fouling factor) for various types 01 reboller and deslgn
tnethods are given i n the heat exchanger design guides*

1. APPLICARILITY
FEASIBILITY;STUDY : PRE-PROIECT

Under normal elrcumstances the deslgn of a packed tower would be detailed by a vendor based on process data supplied by the engineer. The detailed design transfer data for the fluids contacted. For the purpose o f this design guide detalls are given on the general arrangement of packed towers, various types of packing and loading and pressure drop correlations. The determination of the height of a packed tower should be evaluated b y a vendor or determined by the engineer I ! required using methods outlined i n design literature (set references).

of packed towers is

complex and requires spcclljc information regarding both packing type and size and mass

A detalled description is beyond the scope of this guide end is normally

unnecessary tor Ieasibility and pre-project level.


2. PACKED TOWER DESCRIPTION + NOTES

A general arrangement of a packed tower is shown in Figure I.


Packing
The correct selection o f a tDWe1 packing w i l l normally be made by the vendor M
d on the

required process, klowrates and fpressurt drops srated~ Details on pecking are given in :

NOTES AND GUIDELINES

.
.

Carbon steel towers rnay be lined for corrosive service with rubber, plastic or brick deptnding

an the nature at the iluids being processed and the temperatures encountered.
Towers are generally loaded by dumping' the packing rather then stacking. Stacking is !nore

expensive and gives inferlo; liquid distribution but smaller pressure drap. Certain packing types will be stacked at vendor request.

Packing heights per suppwt platelgrid should not cncted 12' (3,6

15-20' (4.5

- 6 rn) lor other packing types.

rn) for Raschig rings a!

Individual bed heights are normally limited t o 8

column diameters or 6 m msxlmum.

.
.

GoOd llquld distrlbution over the packing is necesssry to promote adequate p h w cmtact
within the bed. The streams of llquld should enter the bed on!3" 6" square .centres for small towers with D < 36". For larger towers the number of streams s h l d not be l e g s than (01612. Llquld re1 tributors should be installed after approx. 3 tower diameters for Raxhlg rings

and 5-10 d: ~netersfor other packing types. Redistributors are not generally required for stacked packing as the downward liquid flow Is vertical.

In order t o reduce ceramic errd carbon packing breakage accuring durlng flow surges holddown or floating 'bed limiters are installed on top of the packing. The limiter must be heavy
enough t o hold down the bed and be able t o resettle as the bed mavts.

For plastic or metal packing the bed limiter i s boIted i n place and doca not rest on the packing. Packed towers are not recommended
for

dirty service fluids nor for glycol dehydration.

Packed tower should be considcrcd i n preference to tray towers tor :

il srnall columns with fl'< 2 f t


ii) acids or corrosive liquids iii) highly foaming liquids
iu) low hold up times

1. APPLICABILITY
It

i s not expected that a hand calculatian of shell and tube exchangers be performed by the

engineer. For the purpose of a feasibility or pre-project study any required rigorous calculation would be performed using computer pr%rams HTRI or HTFS.

A qulck estimation of heat exchange area, shell diameter and tube length should be h e by
hand calculation. An example of the procedure is given in Section 3.

A detailed mechanical design i s beyond the scope of this guide.

A calculation prmedurc sufficient for a preliminary estimatt is given I n section 3.0.

2. DESCRIPTION AND GUIDELINE NOTES


Water or Alr Gaoling ?

.
.

Air cooling offshore is sometimes prohibited due to the modular layout 01 the platform.

This may require installation of the air cmler 1na rcrnoke from the associated
equipment. Use clorcd loop watcr cooling.
A i r caaling ia cheaper, simple and fkxible when compared to rumter cooling. The cost and

nulsancc of water treating Ii eliminated If air coolers are used.

Acces billty to motor and driver are better on lorced. Structural and maintenance cmts

PassIbllity with forced draft ai hat alr recirculating into suction of fan thereby reduclng
efficiency.

Induced draft gives better air distribution due to lower inlet velocity with less chance of rtcirculatlng o f hat air.

Indudd draft coolers can be easily installed

4 h v c piperacks or orher equipment.

Protection is given by induced draft coolers from effccts(oll rain, wind mawlpn&md tubes. Important i f fluid in tubes is sensitive to suddsn tamp change also freezing 0f

Fearlbllity and Prc-Project study :

. . .

The purpose o f this design guide is to give some information


be able t o select a suitable gas turblne.

to the engineer in order t o

The' gas turbines do not cover the f u l l range of power and sometimes the process is adapted t o the choice o f the engines. The ioca

b n is an important factor.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICAT!ONS OF GAS TURBINES

The two major industrial applicatior!s of gas turbkne drivers are power generation and gas compression. The gas turbines are also used for liquid pumping [crude oil, water injection, .I but these applications depend on thc ratio between power generation and pumping station
capacities.
In Industry, three types of gas turbines are available :

. .

heavy-duty (one shaft, suitable for power generation not recommend for comprtswrs or two shaft3)

jet engines or aeraderivativc (two shafts) turbines


light industrial

Heavyduty turbines are generally used for large onshore plants where weight and space are not a problem. Aeroderivative turbine or light industrial are predominant lor smaller installation$ offshore where compact, light-weight drivcra are required.

BRIEF DE!5CRIPTION OF THE TURBINE


There arc two parts for the gas turbine : a. main system b. auxilliary system.

These are :

hydraulic system start-up system

3.2-1.

Fuel aas system

A gas turbine i s designed for a certain heat release. It is recommended to

- 10 % magimum) of the design value. avoid large flaw fluctuatians (+

. .

It i s also recommended t o provide a safety margin above the gas dew

point (generally

I5 * C ) and t o have a minimum temperature of + 5 'C.

The fuel gas pressure depends on the gas turbine, a range of 15 t o 20 bar g a t turbine inlet flange is common. For the new generation of jet engines which have high air compressor pressure ratio the pressure could be as
high as 30 bar g.

Certain trace components must not be present i n the fuel gas in order to avoid corrosion in the hot parts of the turbine :

Vanadium : less than 1 ppm

Sodium and Potassium r less than 2 ppm


Calcium (not corrosivt but causes deposits) : less than 2 ppm

Lead: less than 1 ppm

Remarks : a. The fuel gas quality and net heating value range to be specified to the vendor.

b . It is recommanded to install a K.O. pot and filtration


(10 F) at the fuel gas turbine inIet (most of time a rafety filtration is included i n the vendor package)$the basic filtration is normally included in the fuel gas supply Skid.

Start-up system

A gas turbine cannot simply start-up by firing fuel i n the combustion section :
for its gas expansion power after combustion t o be effective, the turbine must attain a certain starting speed first using a starting motor. There arc several kinds of drlvers whlch are used t o start the turbines:

. .

Temperature air in take I 5 ' C Atmospheric pressure 101.3 kPa (sea level)

No loss condition on intake and exhaust ducting


No auxillarics driven by the turbine (except lube oil pump required by the turbine itself) The main external criteria for the performance of a gas turbine are : the site conditions (location, air temperature) losses on intake and exhaust ducting, operation of the machine at conditions other than design, mechanical powcr to drive auxillarics.

4.1.

AIR CONDITIONS
The compression powcr requirement l o r the air increases as the air temperature increases. The consequence is that the available power recovered from the LP turbine decreases as the air temperature incrcaxs (+ 1 ' C 01 air value). See Flgurc 2 for an example*

0.8 % of power :average

4.2.

LOCATION

If the turbine is located above sea level, the site pressure and the available power
decrease by about 1 % per 100 metres e l c v a t i m See Figure 3.

LOSSES ON INTAKE AND EXHAUST DUCTING


Under certain conditions plugging of the airintake t o the turbine may occur. This w i l l result i n a drop in available turbine power. A similar drop will be seen if the exhaust duct pressure also changes average figures are :

Inlet duct :pressure Increases by(l0o mm i-120)~ower falls by 1.4 % Exit duct : pressure increases by 100 mm

H20 power falls by 0.6 %

For estimation take 100 mln HZ0 d p for inlet and exhaust ducts (2% losses)

4.4.

DESIGN CONDITIONS I f the power turbine Is running at 80 % of the design capacity, the reduction in efficiency is about 6 %. If the turbine 1s running at 60 % design the reduction in efficiency i s about 17 96. Since fuel gas consumption is very much affected.

2 . DESCRIPTION AND GUIDELINE NOTES


2.1,

TYPES OF COMPRESSORS
The principal types used l n the 0 1 1 and gas processing industries are :

.
.

reciprocating (volumetric) rotary ~volumctric)

. .

ctntrifugal

axial

A compressor selection chart is shown in Figure 1.

2.2.

GENERAL

USE

2.2.1.

Reciprocating compressors Reciprocating compressors arc widely used i n the oil and gas industry f o r s ~ d l i o medium gas flows and high carnpresrlon ratios. For example :

. .

Instrument and service air compressors


Low capacity/high pressure gas compression for maintain the gas l i f t capability.

re-injection of field gas t o

2.2.2.

Rotary compressors The types o i rotary compressors most frequently employed i n the petrolcum indudtry arc as follows :

. . . .
2 . 2 . 3 .

Lobe compressors ("ROOTS' type) Screw compressors The reliability factor is generally higher than reciprocating machines. "Roots" type compressors are used where a high flow rate wlth a relatively low-pressure is required. Screw compressors arc sometimes used in low flow gas service or for instrument and service air for instatlatlons of small t o medium size.

C e n t r i i u ~ acornpressars l

Thcse Centrifugal compressors have become very popular offering more pQw?r pcr gnit weight and esrcntlallv vwation-lrcc, lnitial costs normally are %than rcciprocatlng comprtswrs but efficiency Is Its? and utility c W may be higher. Frequently used in the o i l and gas process industry.

2.2.0.

Axlal compressors Thew machines are particularly useful where a very high gas ilow at moderate pressure increase is required. Such applications remain relatively rare in the industry, the exception being LNG plants.

2.3.

DISCHARGE TEMPERATURE LIMITATION


,

Discharge temperature is limited either for reasons of gas stability, gas


condensation or compressor (or upstream equipment) mechanical resistance

limit.

. . .
2 4

For reciprocating compresxrr the maximum gas outlet temperaturc t o be d h d

is usually between 160 to 180 * C .


For centrifugal compreswr used in gas and oil extraction industries the discharge temperature is limited t o 1701190 *C. Normally intercoolers are used t o maintain temperatures within t h t above limit$.

DESIGN MARGINS

I f the ilow i s constant, no margin, but i f the flow is coming from a production eparator a margin o f 10 % is recommended in order t o take i n t o account the possible slugs at the inlet of these production separators.

5. WEIGHT AND SIZE


For weight and slzc wc rccomrnend to ask the manufacturer as vendor catalogues detail

only the size and weight of the compressor itself. As the compressor package also includes also the seal and lube o i l console^ control cabinet and sometimes the driver and gear box,
the use of vendors catalogues could be misleading in estimating the installed weight.

Figure 4 could be used for a very preliminary estimation. It is established for the dry weight of a centrifugal compression package including :

1 . APPLICABILITY

For both the feasibility study and a pre-project study the engineer will be required to fill i n a process data sheet with the basic information and to estimate the expander horsepwer.
Outlet conditions and horsepower estimation r a n be calculated accurately by computer. Hand calculations for pure component systems using a MOLLIER diagram are OK.

2. DESCRIPTION AND GUIDELINE NOTES

The turbc-expander i s a mechanical device which is designed according t o the laws of thermodynamics end aerodynamics. I t remover energy from a process ga; which results i n a drop in pressure and temperature of the gas. The energy removed i s converted into mechanical energy which is most often used t o drive a single stage cornprcsm.

T urbaexpanders could be used for :


+

cryogenic pressure let down dew point control

. .

CZ recovery
ethylene processing, etc...

C3ICl recovery

Thermodynamical principal. See Figure I .

, Expanders efficiency
The expander efficiency is the ratio of the actual energy removed to the maximum theoretical energy on Figure 1 :

'I=H B A A

HBI-HA

Expander efficiency depends on :

mass flow rate


inlet pressure inlet temperature

discharge pressure gas composition speed

.
.

Generally a value of 80-85 %can be used for estimation purposes. See Figure 2. Liquid content a t the outlet of the expander varies from 10 t o 30 % (weight)
Inlet gas must be free of solid particles and water (sometimes COZ), ice formation is prohibited.

Maximum horsepower of the manufactured turbo expanders is about f 2 000 HP. This figure should not however be considered as a limit. Turbo expanders can be used in series.

Block valves should not be present in the system so as to isolate a unit irom its relicvine point. Special casts may warrant a car-sealed open or locked valve. However such a r r , .ements should be avoided if possible Interconnecting piping should be of adequate sire and not subject t o plugging. The system should not be of such a size that t w o separate systems would be more economical tn specifying the design pressure of the individual items and safety valve setting there a r e two approaches

Set t h e design pressure of each item independently. Then specify safety valve

scttings to protect the weakest link in t h e group of Items Study the items as a single system initially. Thls is preferable as it avoids having an unexpected "weak link" limit the operating conditions. Consideration should be given to possible abnormal conditions viz :

Light hydrocarbon systems can reach low temperatures during depressurization


Heat exchange trains may be bypassed resulting in higher than normal downstream

temperatures Fallure of cooling medium can cause excessive downstream temperatures Production separators may have a varying feed temperature, especially offshore.

I t i s often required or beneficial to provide two or more separate piping systems from

t k items of equipment t o the flarc $yatem eg I high and low temperature headers.
Consideration should be given to the following

Relief gases below OC must be kept apart Irom warm moist gases t o prevent formation of ice within the flarelines. Thia could cause a system plug up Segregated systems may be economically desirable to minimize the extent of low tcm+rarure piping

By segregating t h e flows irom high and low pressure sources into two separate flare systems greater use of the high p r e s u r t drops can be achieved without lmposing severe backpressures on the low pressure systems
The molecular composition of some streams may warrant their segregation irom other streams. eg moist C02 or H2S is corrosive. I t may be cheaper t o fabricate a second smaller vent system to handle there rather than fabricate the entire system in corrosion resistant material.

Determination of t h e flare system and levrl can be summarized in the following step by Step analysis.

I. Does the facility contain process areas with distimt pressure levels eg :HP compression,
LP c o ~ -ession, atmospheric separation ? If so, c sider two or more flare levels if sufficient limitation is imposed by the LP section

2. Does gas exist at high pressure that on depressuring will fall t o below 0 vC.Lf so, it must be segregated from warm relief gas. If the temperature falls below 29.C may have to consider low temperature steel headers

3. ldentify any corrorlve relief sources and consider if n t e d to pipe up separately


4. Is a vent system required for tank breathers, regeneration vents etc... 5. Identify on the PFMs) the set pressures of each PSV anticipated and consequently its maximum allowable backpressure [MABP usually 10 % 01 set ~ r e s s u r e ) .Locale the "weak links" in the process i.e. :the low design pressure vessels. If only 1 or 2 exist within the

system conslder installing balanced relief valves IMABP = bD % set) so a s to incorporate them into a higher pressure flare system, or even alter the design pressure of the weak links to acheive t h e same. This may be more economical than specifying two flare levels. Having determined t h e configuration of the flare system, it is necessary to size the headers only and t h e flareline itself. For thls, an idea oI the maximum relief load gcnerattd will be required. For the studies a full "risk analysis" af upset conditions is not necessary neither 1s a listing of every relief load and condit~ons. The sizing case o f t h e flare system can usually be judged by inspection. Invariably, the largest vent flow will be s full flow reliel off the first separator or compres~lon drum or a total electrical failure. This may be supplemented by a simultaneous depressurization of a compressor or equipment loops resulting in a flare design flow higher than the normal plant throughput. Generally fire generated loads do not dictate the sizing of the flare system, but may influence the sizing of laterals and subheaders. A certain degree of experience will help

in identifying the possible one or two cases ihat will size the flare system without havlng to perform a fuH plant rlsk analysis.
In some cases, the resulting flaring loads may be minirnised by using ESD isolation valves or autamatlc controls t o start back-up equipment.

DESIGN FLOWRATE

TEMPERATURE AND M W

This has already been determined from the previous sectlon.

TYPE OF TIP + STACK T O BE USED (see section 10 in Flare Design Manuay


The rhoice of stack and tip type wilI obviously be dictated by the location of the prar, nder design. For onshore plants in remote areas i t is usually suflicient to use a remote vertical

stack with a conventional pipeflare tip. The height of the stack will be determined by the radlation limitation on the designated sterile area round the stack. For non
occupied areas, this figure could be high as 5000 BTUI~.!~~(15 700 ~ / m 2 ) resulting
in a short stack height. For cases where high flaring loads s t i l l result i n a tall stack,

a further reduction in height can be achieved by using a Coandaffndair or similar type high pressure sonic flare tip (see section 10 i n FLARE DESIGN MANUAL for dixusslon o f each tip type). Offshore the choice is somewhat more complex in choosing between a remote
vertical

flare or similar, or an Integral 45' mounted boom itare or even on board The decision between these i s more often than not governed by

vertical sta&.

economics, structural considerations and specifics pertinent t o each platform Iocation eg r water depth. Generally, however sonic flare tips are used where pressure levels allow (2-> bars) a t the tip entry i n order to reduce stack/bom lengths, by reducing radiation levels, and associated support structure weights.

A detailed calculation of this value for vertical or inclined flares on or offshore

DRUM SIZING
Bawd on the above design considerations the flare KO drum can be sized using the

method outlined in section 2.0. VESSEL DESIGN.

For a flare KO drum, t h e normal liquid level should be kept in the tower part of the drum 1.e. : utHise as much space as possible for the vapor-liquid dt-entrainment. If a large diameter drum results consider using a split flow arrangement with the cxlt noz. r mounted on t h e head. This will rnaxirnise the L/D ratio and give a smaller Iighit drum. This is especially useful offshore where weight + space are a major concern. An LSHH will normally be installed in the flare drum to Initiate a plant shutdown (or
wellhead shut in oiishore).

I. APPLICABILITY
The purpose of this chapter is to calculate precisely the pressure drop in a piping network.
This may be required for either study phase for situations where

A P is a critical

consideration. For most proj-ts

however calculation of process lint

A PI wil

not be

required. The pressure drop calculations are based on a summation K method.

CONTROL VALVE SIZING

TEPIDPIEXPISUR

10.21

1. APPLICABILITY
Tht purpose of this chapter is t o give some formulae to estimate the size and the number of
control valves installed for one given service, and to estimate the capability o f the control valves i n case of revamping. The final sizing should be done by instrument people.

2. CONTROL VALVES CHARACTERISTICS


Them are determined principally by the design of the valve trim. The three fundamental characteristics available are quick opening, linear, and equal percentage. 2 . 1 . QUICK OPENING

As the name implies, this type provides a large opening as the plug is first lifted from the scat with lesser flow increase as the stem opens further. The most common
application i f for simple on-off control with no throttling of flow required. 2.2.

LINEAR
Linear trim provides equal increaws i n stern travel. Thus the flow rate is linear with plug position throughout i t s travel.

2 . 3

EQUAL PERCENTAGE Provides equal percentage increases i n rate of flow for equal increments of stem
travd. The characteristics provide a very small opening for plug travel near the Seat and very l a r ~ e increase toward the fully open position. As a result, a wide rangeability of flow rate b achieved.

3. CONTROL VALVE RANGEABILITY For an estimation only it is common practice t o select a valve i n which the valve opening

.
.

at maximum flow is smaller than or equal to 9 1 per cent. For normal flow the valve opening should be at least 60 per cent while for minimum flow, il applicable, the opening should be larger than 10 per cent. If the inlnimurn flow is clor

'o or smaller than 10 per cent, a smaller valve should be installed i n parallel with
n valve.

the n

For a flow rate the valve opening depends on the valve characteristics and i t is given by vendor i n their catalcgue.

4. FORMULAE

The valve area is characterized by the coeificient Cv (except lor FISHER which use Cg for the gas (see hereafter). The Cv coefficient is the number 01 U.S. gallons of water flowing during one minute through a restriction and the pressure drop through this restriction is 1 PSI. The following formulae are slmpllfied and to be used only far an estimation of the Cv. Some corrections may be necessary for the installation of reducers around the control valve. I f so, the Iormulae given by manufacturcrs i n their catalogues w i l l be used for a better Cv calculatlon.

3. TEMPERATURE PROFILE
For detailed and accurate AT and h P calculations in 2 phase lines buried, subsea or in air the program PEPITE should be used. The hand calculation method presented on pages Il+6, 11.7 is accurate t o wllhln 10 96 for both gas and liquid lines. The procedure is easily adapted t o a small pragrammablo calculator and increases in reliability the greater the number of segments used.
The f o l d #ingshould be remembered when designing pipelines,
+

For long pipelines assuming isothermal flow can result in overdesign in pipeline sire and

A P.

.
.
.

If the plpeline is constant with regard t o material, insulation and burial depth along its route a fixed thermal conductivity (k)can be assumed.
For gas pipelines the internal film rcsistivity is negligible - Ignore it.
For all steel pipelines the resistivity of the metat 1s also negligible.

.
.

Small plpelines 1< 20") have a large heat flow compared to the specific heat of the flowing medium. Consequently the gas w i l l reach ~roundtseatemp in a relatively short length. For large pipelines the converse is true and a long distance is required t o reach ambient.
For oil and small gas pipelines the asymptotic temperature Ta is that of the surrounding medium. For large diameter gas tines, Ta d e p n d s largely on the JwlrThompson effect.

The attached calculation sheet can be used for hot lines in cold surroundings or vice
verm

For subsea pipelines, epoxy wrapped, concrete coated resting on the bed an overall heat transier caeff of U = 10 I S k c a l / h m 2 * ~is a good estimate for calculation purposes.

I. APPLICABILITY
For many studies undertaken there wifl be a requirement i o r 8 gas or liquid dehydration unit i n ardcr to reduce the water content of the export phase to acceptable limits for pipeline transportation. Generally this design will be undrrtaken by a vendor sperialist. However the engineer should be aware 01 some o f the options available for dehydration schemes, some of

the dos and donts of design and also how t o undertake the basis slzlng of the most common unit (TEG). The majority of this section i s concerned with gas dehydration using tri-ethytene glycol contact, this being the most widely used.
2. GENERAL DEHYDRATION NOTES

(English units ate used throughout this section for convenience)

, Gas is normally dehydrated to 6 to LO lb af H20 per MMSCF in order to prevent hydrate formation in gas tranrmlssian lines, and reduce corrosion. Unless the gas is dehydrated liquid water may accumulate a t low polnts and reduce the flow capacity of the line.
Methods of dehydration i n usage arc :
I. Adsorption 2.

(Alumina, silica gel, male sieve) (di- or tri-ethylene glycol)

Absorption

3. Direct cooling

4 . Compression followed by cooling 5. Chemical reaction (for method injection see 4.0)
The last three methods have minor usage and are discussed elsewhere in literature.

.
.

A sumr,

y of the advantages and disadvantages

o f various absorption liquids i s given in

Table 1.
Tri-ethylene glycol is the preferred (mast widely used) absorption liquid. Example flawsheets of di- and tri-ethylene glycol arc given in Fig. 1 & 2. In order to limit the overhead glycol losses a max practical operating temp of 38 glycol viscosity.

PRELIMINARY SIZING CALCULATLONS An exact sizing of a TEG unit will normally be performed by the vendor on request. The
CFP lnhwse program "GLYCOL" also exists Ior estimating vessel sizes, circulation rates

and utility consumptions. These arc based on data from the B5+0 design guide. The following hand method can be used however t o estimate the required size :

4. METHANOL IN3ECTION (HYDRATE INHIBITION)

In order to prevent hydrate formation in gar transmission lines the product is normally dehydrated in s TEG or mole sieve unit as defined in previous sections. On some occasions however (wellhead to plant) this is not possible due to the location of the source. If the minimum pipeline temperature is below the hydrate point the inhibition of water i s required. This is acheived by infection of inhibitors to depress the hydrate and freezing points.

Common inhibitors are methanol, DEG, TEG. R ~ C Q V of C ~ inhibitors ~ a t the receiving plant ir normal, t h e liquid being then recycled. Econamics of methanol recovery are not favourable. Methanol i s adequate for any temperature. DEG not good below Limitations. Above 10 ' C better as lower vaporisation losses.

Beds can be severely degredated

by heavy oils, arnines, glycols corrosion inhibitors,

salts and Ilquids. i t i s essential t o have a good feed filter or scrubber prior t o entering the dessicant bed.

Bed life i s usually 2-4 years depending on contamination.


Gas flow through the bed is generally downwards. Regeneration gas flows upwards.

This

ensures the water is stripped from the media without having to pass a l l the way t h r ~ l g h the bed. Figures 8 and 9 show a typical molecular sieve arrangement. Regeneration temperature is usually 175 " C media, too low results i n poor regeneration. Table I gives a summary

230 OC. Too high temp destroys the

o f operating and regeneration practices.

1. APPLICABILITY
Generally natural gas, or associated gas contain acid components, mainly carbon dioxide

(C02) hyi

:en sulfide (COS), carbon disulflde (CS2) and mercaptans.

To obtaln a commercial product, gaseous or liquefied, the gas needs to bc treated t o eliminate these sour components for safety or process reasons. An other aspect of gas sweetening is linked with the development of the C02 injection to improve oil recovery. In this case C01 is extracted by a selective process. This section details different methods available for gas sweetening and lists their advantages and disadvantages. Guidelines are glven on which system to select lor specific services.
A detailed sizing method is beyond the sccpt of this section, but can be found in the

referenced literature is required.

COS, CS2, RSH (up to a total acid gas content of 20 % volume)

Hz5 content of the treated gas lower than the normal specification

requirements 14 ppm volume) can be achcived. The CO2 content of the treated gas can be as low as to I00 ppm volume. Performance of the

process depends on the C02/bi~Sratio in the feed gas.

For sour gases w i t h high acid gas content (above 25 % mole), DEA

flow rate can be reduced. Investment cost increases significantly (more equipment, complex columns, increased regenerator height).
2. SNEA

- DEA process.

SNEA company has developed a pracess using a hlgher concentration o f DEA (above 30 % wclght).
The process licensor claims to give In one step, for gases containing 0 to 35 % of Hz5 and 0 to 35 % of COz, a treated gas matching the most stringent H ~ spe~iiication s (4 pprn by volume).

(DCA) PROCE55 (FLUOR ECONAMINE)

The DGA process has a limited number of units compared w i t h MEA and

DEA.

Although in the public domajne, the process was developed by FLUOR and is
refered t o as the FLUOR ECONAMINE process advantages and disadvantages
to compare with MEA arc :

a) Advantages

low solutlon circulation rate due to the concentration (same absorption

capacity as MEA)

- very low pour point (-b0.F)


b) Disadvantages

low utilities consumption

- Plants in cold climate areas

- needs cooling of the solution during the absorption phase


high solubility hydrocarbons and aromatics are dissolved
high solvent cost.

c) Criteria of selection

Like MEA, DCA reacts both w i t h C02 and CS2 and a reclaimer is required. The process i s applicable to gases with acid gas content from 1.5 to 30 % volume and CO~/HZSratios between 300/1 and O.lf1 a t
operating pressures above 15 PSIC.

PHYSICAL ABSORPTION
In
i

type o f process, the solvent extracts the acid components by simple physical

cofltc t and releases them by simple expansion at low pressure.

High pressure and low temperature favour the physical absorption. Table 2 l i s t s the advantages and disadvantages of physlcal solvents. These processes are applicable especially in the case of high acid gas partial pressure (above 5 bars also). Not suitable l o r sweetening at low or medium pressure (10 bars abs) gases containing large amount of heavy hydrocarbons. Can be considered for a selective absorption. The main processes a r t :
3.2.1.

WATER WASH
Can be used as primary treatment. For absorbers water wash can be achieved
by addition of trays

in the top section.

Because of Its low efficiency, water wash should be used mainly on gases with

a large amount of H2S. Corrosion problems for this process should be


considered carefully.
3.2.2.
SELEXOL PROCESS (see figure 4)

has been applied for sweetening of gases containing up t o 65 % of C02 and 9 % o f H2S a t pressure ranging from 25 t o 100 bars abs.
treated gas specification can reach 0,02 % C02 and 1 ppm W2S. When used to absorb selectively H2S or C02 it can also dehydrate. other sulfur compounds (COS, mercaptans) are also eliminated.

DESCRIPTION

The description is based on simple cycle. A refrigeration cycle is based on the exchange
between a hot source and

s cold source. The

cold source is a refrigerant, the air or rhe

water, the hot source is the gas to be refrigerated. (see figs 1, LA) Figure 1 shows such a cycle where :

During the. discharge of the cryogenrc refrigerant, a mixed phase is generated (vapor and liquid). Only the liquid phase participates i n the coding duty. The vapor phase being compressed from low pressure t o the high pressure without participation a t the refrigerated duty.
I t is possible to remove a part of this vapor phase by addition o f an intermediate pressure
stage removing the vapor from the low pressure stage compressor which i s called

economiser (see figures 2 and 2A). An economiser is widely used in the industry.

7. SELECTION OF MATERIAL
The material selection t o be made carefully. We recommend t o take the temperature corresponding a t the vapor pressure at the atmosphere pressure (1.e. : for propane it 1s recommended to select the law temperature killed carbon steel).

MULTISTAGE CYCLE

If we look at the enthalpic curves of the exchanger (precess refrigerant) with or withwt
economiser, it i s obvlous t o see that the area between the process stream and the refrigerant stream is proportional t o the compressor work (in a first approximation).
It is possible to reduce this a r t a by addition of several pressure levels between the discharge

and the

5'

'ion of the compressor. However, there is more equlp~nent (drums, exchangers,

regulation)

d the compressor

is more complicated.

The number o f pressure levels is an economical problem but the maximum i s 3 or 4

T h e following details the common used effluent water treatment equipment given in order
of

effluent quality :

API gravity settler

.
,

Usually the first line of d e a n up. Simply a settling tank with a top skimmer to remove
any floating oil or debris and a bottom skimmer to remove sludge.

Effluent quality around 150 microns globules and 150 ppm oil.
Large bulky items, cannot be used offshore, Either circular or rectangular in design.

. . . .
.

Simple, cheap very common in onshore use.

Tilted Plate Separator (TPS), Corrugated Plate Interceptor (CPJ) Widely used both offshore and onshore. Uses plate packs, usually at 45* mounted in a tank and relies on gravity settling between ail + water within the spaces between the plates. [flu
quality dawn to 60 micron oil globules and >0-200 ppm.

. .

Can have problems with high solids content

it upstream settling tank i s not installed.

TPS units are usually used as the first treatment stage offshore.

Flotation units

Uses induced or dissolved air flotation t o remove any residual solids/oil in the cjlluent.
Works in reverse to a gravity settler (small air bubbles trap debris and float to top of tank).

Can be used both offshore and onshore. Usually instalIcd downs~reamof a T PS unit or
API separator.

Filtration (Use for Water injection systems only)

.
. . .

~ i l t r a t i o nunits either uses media beds [sand, anthracite, garnet, walnut shells) to achieve water quality or filters (fibre sccks, mesh, stainless steel cage).

IJrwlly not required for effluent water treatment unless very ldw residual solids
content eniorced by lacal effluent standards.

More commonly used for water re-injection where high quality, low solids level is
required. Can achieve 1-2 ppm in certaln beds, 10-15 ppm is more common. Units arc generally cornpacl but heavy due to media bed weight.

Good pre-filtration is required to prevent fouling up of main bed units.

Effluent standards

Listed below are maximum residual oil content in effluent water for dumping t o sea :

Process drains, produced water, deck (site) drains [see figure 1)

Produced watcr may need degassing before treatment. If the amount of dissolved gas is small it may be possible to handle it i n the TPS unit.

Deck

or

site drains normally iluw to a separate sump tank before Qe-oiling. If the deck

drainage i s small or produced watcr itow is small, both streams can be combined
through one TPS unit.

Process d r a l n ~ are normally manually initiated and pass directly to the return oil slop tank. These drains are generally watcr free. Always try
