Exhibit 3
SUMMARY OF EQUIPMENT-BASED REVALIDATION
OF THE INSIDE UNIT BATTERY LIMIT (ISBL) PROCESS RELIEF SYSTEMS
This Exhibit 3 describes the equipment based revalidation process BP Products will implement to evaluate all of its process relief systems inside unit battery limits.
- BP Products will collect and ensure the accuracy of key information required to conduct the relief systems revalidation analysis. That information will include the following:
- Heat and material balances-This includes the physical properties of the fluids in the system, the rate of fluid movement within the system, temperatures, pressures, fluid properties, and whether the material is a vapor, gas, liquid, or two phase.
- Relief device information such as the relief device set points, blowdown, coefficients, type, manufacturer, model, orifice area, capacity, test pressure, and discharge location including whether it discharges to the atmosphere or to a flare.
- Piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs).
- Equipment information such as the pressure vessels protected by the relief device, pressure vessel metallurgy, the applicable code to which the pressure vessel was constructed, maximum allowable working pressure or design pressure, and vessel dimensions.
- Other data such as the piping used in the relief system, piping metallurgy, inlet and outlet size, and location of block valves within the system.
- Process flow diagrams (PFDs) or sketch.
- Operating conditions.
- Piping sketches.
- Field verification of data identified above, where needed.
- Conduct or confirm which pressure relief scenarios are credible within the relevant relief system. This is accomplished by reviewing the 21 scenarios defined in BP Products's engineering practices. This review identifies the reasons and causes of the overpressure. The rationale for inclusion or exclusion of these 21 scenarios will be documented in the associated relief device and system folders. Engineering design calculations are then performed to determine the adequacy of overpressure protection for all applicable scenarios.
- Conduct or confirm the adequacy of flare and effluent system according to BP GP 44-80 such as the hydraulic capacity of the flare header piping, the flare knockout drum, and radiation from the flare tip. This analysis will be done for various relief scenarios, such as loss of power and loss of cooling. The results of these analyses are documented in a clear and consistent format and made readily accessible.
- Identify all potential hazards of a device relieving to atmosphere as required by API 521.
- The following relief system calculations are typically made using the relevant equations from API 520 and 521 and BP Products engineering practices:
- Required flow rate based on applicable overpressure scenarios and the capacity of the relief device for each of the scenarios.
- Relief stream conditions used for sizing the relief devices and performing any required hydraulic calculations.
- Hydraulic loads on the relief system during various release scenarios.
- Proper relief device sizing.
- Inlet and outlet piping hydraulic calculations to determine the inlet and outlet pressure drop.
- Reaction forces of outlet piping when applicable.
- Acoustic induced vibration of piping when applicable.
- Flare header analysis and hydraulic calculations based on global scenarios.
- Flare header knockout drum sizing calculations.
- Determination of radiation levels from any flare tips.
- Fluid properties generation using process simulations.
- Using the information collected in Sections 1-3 and the calculations conducted in Section 5 of this exhibit, BP Products will identify, assess, validate, rank, and take interim mitigation steps to address gaps found during the revalidation process.
- Key documentation developed during the activities described in Sections 1-5 of this exhibit will be included in the appropriate relief system folder. The Refinery maintains its relief system design documentation as follows: a) Relief Device Folder, b) Protected System Folder, and c) Effluent Book.
Table 1 Equipment not included in the Relief System - Equipment-Based Revalidation
Excluded Process Equipment | Excluded Systems |
---|---|
Treatment chemicals and associated packaged equipment, storage facilities, and supply equipment used for:
|
Ancillary Utilities:
Lubrication, Shaft-sealing and Oil-control systems:
|
Note 1: The process side of exchangers that utilize these utilities shall be analyzed for relief issues (e.g. tube rupture case) that would put hydrocarbons into the utility system.
Note 2: Thermal relief valves are maximum 1x2 relief valves with D orifice; installed only to protect against fluid thermal expansion in piping/equipment that is liquid full and isolated. Typically these are in OSBL areas; although there may be some in process areas.
Exhibit 4
CONTENTS OF RELIEF DEVICE FOLDER
This Exhibit 4 describes the contents of the Refinery's relief device folders.
- Relief device cover sheet- This summarizes key parameters about the relief device, its design basis, and the analyses performed that are described in Exhibit 3.
- Relief device datasheet- This summarizes relief device specifications and design basis such as the controlling scenario to which it may potentially be subjected and the relief device size, orifice size, set pressure, area, model, make, and process information required for the controlling scenario.
- Scenarios summary sheet- This summarizes the process information and relief loads for all applicable overpressure scenarios. This information is a summary from the detailed calculations described in Exhibit 3.
- A field sketch of the relief device inlet and outlet piping, including inlet and outlet equivalent length calculations.
- Vendor information for the relief device, as applicable.
Exhibit 5
CONTENTS OF PROTECTED SYSTEM FOLDER
A protected system as that term is used by the Refinery means the smallest related group of relief valves, piping, and process vessels that can be completely isolated from other systems by closing various isolation valves. This group of relief valves, piping, and process vessels only includes such equipment that would necessarily be subject to the same overpressure event at the same time as a result of the process and relief system designs. The protected system typically is part of a Process Unit, and is associated with an effluent (discharge) system.
The Refinery maintains its overpressure protection documentation as follows: a) Relief Device Folder, b) Protected System Folder, and c) Effluent Book.
This Exhibit 5 describes the contents of the Refinery's protected system folders.
1. Protected system executive summary-This summarizes the equipment and piping in the pressurized relief system including unique pressure vessel and piping identification numbers, and identification of the engineering drawings (P&ID) on which they are located, the results of the overpressure protection system design, and list of potential design issues, if applicable.
2. Overpressure contingency checklist-This will list each primary cause of overpressure relying on the 21 possible scenarios from BP's engineering practices, and an indication of whether or not the cause of overpressure was found to apply to the pressurized system. Each cause of overpressure should provide the rationale used for the determination of whether or not the cause of overpressure was found to apply.
3. Engineering calculation details- This documentation includes all the relief device sizing and hydraulic detailed calculations for all applicable overpressure scenarios. It is derived from the calculation software (MathCAD, or equivalent) or an equivalent calculation software used by the Refinery.
4. Process simulation printout for fluid properties (HYSYS, for example).
5. Marked up Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (PIDs) and Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs) / sketch for the protected system.
6. Protected equipment specification or data sheets, pump curves, and any auxiliary information relevant to the protected system under consideration that was used for the analyses described in this exhibit.
7. Identification of any credit taken for existing protective measures in conducting the analyses referenced in this exhibit for the prevention of various release scenarios. This may include protective measures such as unit shutdown procedures, alternative relief paths, and safety instrumented systems (for flare header analysis only).
