Equipment
Balanced oil sealing solution reduces lube oil leakage at compressor drive train
Reciprocating compressors use a piston rod connected to a drive train at the crosshead section.
Case histories of amine plant equipment corrosion problems–Part 1
Lost production from corrosion costs the oil and gas industry more than $1 B/yr.1
Heavy crude oil processing design and reliability
Revamping refineries to process heavier crude slates goes well beyond the requirements to meet equipment performance dictated by a shift in the quantity of lighter product yields to heavier products.
Safety in design during mechanical engineering
After a process engineer has completed preliminary documents such as process flow diagrams, material and energy balance, piping and instrumentation diagrams, equipment data sheets, process control philosophies, identifications of the hazardous nature of raw materials, chemicals, byproducts and final products, process equipment layout drawings (plans and elevations), unit plot plans, etc., these documents are issued to other disciplines to carry out further engineering.
Process safety incidents involving simultaneous operations
Some process safety incidents occur as the result of simultaneous or sequential occurrences of operations or activities that interfere or clash with each other.
