Lifecycle Aspen HYSYS Modelling for FPSO, from Engineering Studies to OTS
Joint oral contribution to Aspentech’s Users Conference Optimize held in Houston, TX (USA) in April 2017
Incorporating Process Simulation into Control Engineering
The definition of a Control System in Chemical and Petrochemical Plants requires specific know-how with the target of optimizing and improving existing systems and designing new ones. When designing a system, it is necessary to follow some basic steps such as modelling the system, analysing such model, designing the system/controller and finally
Lifecycle modelling for an FPSO: From engineering studies to OTS
Joint oral contribution to the Oil & Gas Training and Simulation forum held in June 2017 in Aberdeen (Scotland), UK
Full flare system revalidation project and Knowledge Improvement Program (KIP)
During this project, Inprocess developed a complete flare network revalidation study according to API520 and API521. The common relief scenarios were analysed for all the affected units and the sizing cases were determined in order to perform the revalidation study using dynamic simulation methods.
Ensuring the operability of a Turboexpander Dew Point Unit
Inprocess delivered a complete dynamic simulation model of the turboexpander for an EPC company. This simulation was key in testing several operational scenarios for various normal and upset conditions ant to ensure the operability of a Turboexpander Dew Point Unit.
Dynamic Simulation Study for EDC Cracking Furnaces and HCL Distillation Column
Inprocess developed a dynamic simulation study in order to …
Dynamic Simulation Study for a National Gas Grid and Emulated Operator Training System
Inprocess carried out a detailed concept study of the Gas Grid pipeline system to identify and evaluate all possible options available to meet all gas delivery specifications and Gas Grid capacity for a minimum of 10 years.
Dynamic Simulation Studies for the integrated steam and power systems in an expansion project in a liquified natural gas plant
An Inprocess client initiated an Expansion Project to commercialize the incremental resource into high margin gas markets based on a single LNG (liquefied natural gas) train expansion.
Reviewing the situation
The paper describes the steps that should be taken during a flare network capacity assessment, using both a conventional approach or dynamic simulation.
Use Dynamic Simulation to maximize plant operating performance
The oil and gas industry has witnessed seismic downward shifts in barrel prices and uplifts in market competitiveness.
