Surge Analysis in a Crude Logistics Facility

Type of service: Surge Analysis

Inprocess client: A Refinery in the United Arab Emirates

Year: 2024

Country: UAE

Description: A refinery needed to verify surge pressures in its crude unloading, transfer and storage network under abnormal operating conditions, ensuring compliance with pressure limits and industry standards.

Inprocess developed a detailed transient hydraulic model to evaluate critical scenarios such as start-up, emergency release system activation and sudden valve closures. The study identified the exact locations requiring surge protection and validated targeted mitigation measures.

The results helped avoid unnecessary network-wide modifications, optimize relief valve design and provide key inputs for flare system design, reducing CAPEX while improving operational safety.
