1.4 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The primary objective of the Sulphur Recovery Upgrade project is to comply with State
Environmental Regulations. The objective is met by upgrading the existing Sulphur
Recovery Facilities at NGL-3, in Mesaieed, to achieve a minimum sulphur recovery of
99.5% during normal operation.
The upgrade of the SRU includes routing additional sour gas streams from other NGL
plants (NGL-1, 2 and 4) to SRU unit along with NGL-3 AGRU 1 & 2 acid gases.
New Process systems that are included in this upgrade project are:
Acid Gas Enrichment Unit (AGEU)

Tail Gas Treating unit (TGTU)
Tail Gas Incinerator
Existing SRU is upgraded.

New utility systems that are included in this upgrade project are:
Instrument Air and Plant Air System

Nitrogen System
Drinking Water System
Oily Water Drain System
Effluent & Waste Water Treatment System
Flare System
LP Fuel Gas System
Sea Cooling Water System
Demineralised Water System
Boiler Feed Water Deaerator System

SECTION II HEALTH SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 16 of 517
2.1 HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT (HSE)
This safety section briefs about the safety features of the Sulphur Recovery Upgrade
facilities at Mesaieed which provide safety systems to protect personnel, environment
and assets from the threats of production hazards. The safety of the plant facilities is
maintained at a minimum risk level by adopting the following safety design aspects:
1. Avoiding Exposure to Potential Hazards
2. Minimising the Potential (frequency) for Hazardous occurrences (release of
Hydrocarbons, Hydrocarbon Flammable Gases and any other abnormal hazardous
event)
3. Containing and Minimising the Consequence (Fire, Explosion and Toxic Gas
releases) of the Hazards
4. Providing the Means of Escape and Evacuation from such Hazards
5. Proving a Safe Working Environment for the Plant Personnel.
2.2 LEAKAGE OF ACID GAS
While starting up of Acid Gas System that contains H2S & CO2, it is necessary to take
special precautions as follows:
1. Area around the specific area is barricaded to prevent personnel approaching the
worksite.
2. Personnel carrying out this operation have to take Work Permit and be aware of
the hazards associated with Nitrogen (N2), Carbon Di-oxide (CO2) and Hydrogen
Sulphide (H2S).
3. Wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
4. As far as possible, the system to be entered is purged using N2/water prior to
opening. This also negates the threat of elemental sulphur and associated
corrosion and cracking.
5. Pyrophoric fire prevention measures are put in place (including availability of
relevant portable fire extinguishers).
6. Personnel involved in the operation should wear Breathing Apparatus (BA) sets.
7. Check H2S concentration frequently after wedge open the flange.
8. Purging using N2 is continued as necessary.
9. When H2S concentration is NIL, the All Clear is given and normal work activities
can recommence.
10. Ensure O2 supply by circulating fresh air through the equipment prior to making
vessel entry.
11. Follow PTW of QP.

2.3.9 Hydrogen Sulphide
Accidental Release Measures
1. Personal Precautions: Keep unnecessary personnel away. Ensure adequate

ventilation. Do not touch or walk through spilled material.
2. Methods of containment: Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk.
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks or flames in immediate
area). Prevent entry into waterways, sewers, basements or confined areas.
3. Methods for cleaning up: Avoid dust formation. Vacuum or sweep up material and
place in a disposal container.
4. It is likely that the liquid in the system may contain pyrophoric iron sulphide. Even
after steam-out/water washing, this may ignite when drying out in the presence
of air. Therefore, water connections for flushing should be readily available

Hazards Identification
1. Health Hazards:
Hydrogen Sulphide is a highly toxic gas, rapidly causing death when inhaled in high
concentrations. Even at low concentrations irritation of the eyes, nose and throat
are possible. The following table illustrates the hazard of varying concentrations:
TLV for prolonged exposure: 10 ppm
Slight symptoms after several hours exposure: 70-150 ppm
Maximum Concentrations that can be inhaled for one hour without serious
effects: 170-300 ppm
Dangerous after exposure of 30 minutes to one hour: 400-700 ppm
Fatal in 30 minutes: 700 ppm and above
Skin absorption has been reported but is not considered significant

Hydrogen Sulphide can be recognized by its rotten egg odour. However its odour
should never be used as a means of detection because exposure even to low
concentrations may dull the sense of smell
Acute toxicity: The greatest danger from the inhalation of hydrogen sulphide is
from its acute effects; it is not cumulative in action
Exposure to moderate concentrations causes headache, dizziness, nausea and
vomiting in that order. Continued exposure may cause loss of consciousness,
respiratory failure and death if the gas concentration is high enough. In exposures
to high concentrations, loss of consciousness may occur rapidly and respiratory
failure may follow a few minutes later. After severe exposures to hydrogen
sulphide the individual may regain consciousness after several hours of treatment
but he may show evidence of permanent severe brain damage. Persons having a
significant exposure to hydrogen sulphide may develop a complete and permanent
loss of the sense of smell thus destroying any ability to detect the presence of
hydrogen sulphide
2. Chronic Exposure
Prolonged exposure to low concentrations of Hydrogen Sulphide has an irritant
effect on the mucous membranes, eyes and the respiratory tract. Eye effects have
been reported at concentrations of 20 ppm or below.
First-Aid Measures
1. General Principles: in case of exposure to hydrogen sulphide the patient should be

removed to fresh air as quickly as possible. The rescuer must be certain that he is
adequately protected against breathing the gas.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 19 of 517
2. Contact with skin and mucous membranes: Skin absorption is very low. Skin
discoloration is possible after contact with liquid hydrogen sulphide. If such skin
contact is suspected, the area should be thoroughly washed.
3. Contact with eyes: Eye contact with liquid and gas will cause painful irritation. In
case of eye contact keep patient in darkened room; apply ice compresses; put ice
on forehead. Send for physician. Eye irritation caused by exposure to hydrogen
sulphide requires treatment by a physician, preferably an eye specialist.
4. Inhalation: A worker who has been overcome by hydrogen sulphide must be carried
at once into uncontaminated atmosphere. If breathing has stopped, mouth to
mouth resuscitation should be started immediately. If Oxygen inhalation apparatus
is available, Oxygen should be administered by a competent person. Keep the
patient quiet and warm. Call a physician immediately. Do not give anything by
mouth to an unconscious patient.

SECTION III OVERVIEW OF SRU UPGRADE FACILITIES

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 21 of 517
3.1 PROCESS
3.1.1 SRU Upgrade Facilities Overview
The following facilities are part of the Sulphur Recovery Upgrade Project:
New Acid Gas Enrichment Unit (AGEU)

New Tail Gas Treating Unit (TGTU)
New Tail Gas Incinerator
Existing SRU upgrade/modification

Existing SRU upgrade - The SRU plant is upgraded to process the acid gas flow from
the two AGRU trains, along with the acid gas streams from NGL 1/2/4 units.
Utilities System Upgrade: Sea Water Cooling System, Boiler Feed Water System,
Steam Generation System, Instrument/Plant Air System, Fuel Gas System, Waste
Water System, Electrical Power System, Control & Safety System.
AGEU & TGTU are provided with common Amine System. Proprietary Amine solvent
(Dow Ucarsol HS-103) has been selected for this purpose.
3.1.2 Acid Gas Enrichment Unit (AGEU)
Lean acid gas enters the unit at a temperature of 53C and a pressure of 0.55 barg.
This stream is cooled in an Acid Gas Coolers (9103-E-101A/B), before passing to the
Lean Acid Gas KO Drum (9103-V-14). The Lean Acid Gas KO Drum allows bulk removal
of any condensed/entrained liquid from upstream. The liquid level in the Lean Acid
Gas KO Drum is controlled by pumping the liquid via the Acid Gas KO Drum Return
Pumps (9103-P-14A/B) to the existing MDEA storage tank. Alternatively, the sour water
can be routed to the sour water stripper, via a normally closed isolation valve.
Vapour leaves the Lean Acid Gas KO Drum and fed to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber
(9103-C-11), at the bottom. The vapour passes upwards through a trayed bed in
contact with a lean amine solution. The counter current contact with the amine
solution essentially removes all the H2S and some of the mercaptans and part of the
CO2 from the vapour stream. If any BTEX exists in the lean acid gas, it is expected that
80-90% will slip directly to the Incinerator.
Treated gas leaving the top of the absorber (9103-C-11) goes to the Incinerator (9101-
F-14). The rich amine solution, containing absorbed acid gas, is combined with solvent
from the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12). It is removed from the column by the
Acid Gas Rich Amine Pump (9103-P-12A/B). This stream is then heated in the
Lean/Rich Exchanger, before it is fed to the Amine Regenerator (9103-C-12). The rich
amine flow rate is controlled to maintain the level in the Acid Gas Amine Absorber.
The amine regeneration facilities required for the Acid Gas Enrichment and Tail Gas
Treatment Units are shared with the use of a common solvent.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 22 of 517
In the Amine Regenerator, the rich solution is stripped counter currently with vapours
generated by the Amine Regenerator Reboiler. The bottom of the column is
maintained at a temperature by regulating the LP steam flow rate into the
Regenerator Reboiler (9103-E-13). The stripping action in the lower section removes
and releases the contaminants from the solution, such as the acid gases, mercaptans
and residual dissolved hydrocarbons.
The stripped vapours are cooled in the Regenerator Condenser (9103-E-12), and the
Regenerator Condenser Trim Cooler (9103-E-16), by regulating air flow by fans in
Regenerator Condenser and adjusting the flow rate of Sea water to the Regenerator
Condenser Trim Cooler. Any water and amine in the overhead stream is condensed and
collects in the Regenerator Reflux Drum (9103-V-12). The reflux flow rate is controlled
by maintaining the liquid level in the Regenerator Reflux Drum. Acid gas from the
Regenerator Reflux Drum passes overhead to the Sulphur Recovery Unit.
Hot lean amine solution from the Regenerator is pumped to the Amine Surge Tank
(9103-T-11) by the Hot Lean Amine Pump (9103-P-17 A/B). The Lean/Rich Exchanger
(9103-E-11), Lean Amine Cooler (9103-E-14) and Lean Amine Trim Cooler (9103-E-15)
cool the solution prior to the Amine Surge Tank. The lean solution from the Amine
Surge Tank is pumped to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber and the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber via the Lean Amine Pump (9103-P-13A/B). A slipstream is taken off after the
pump and returns to the surge tank through the Lean Amine Filter (9103-S-11), Carbon
Filter (9103-S-12) and the Fines Filter (9103-S-13). The filters remove particulate
matter from the stream as well as hydrocarbons that accumulate in the Amine
solution.
The Amine Surge Tank (9103-T-11) receives the recycle flow from the filter circuit and
the regenerator. It has the capacity to hold the whole system inventory at shut down.
The Amine Surge Tank is maintained at a slightly positive pressure, however not high
enough to be able to float on the flare header to maintain pressure and stop ingress of
Oxygen. Therefore it is provided with Nitrogen blanketing to prevent air ingress and to
minimise the risk of solution degradation.

3.1.3 Sulphur Recover Unit Process Description
The acid gas stream from the gas treating plant enters the Acid Gas KO Drum (9101-V-
04) where acid water is knocked out and pumped to Amine Sump (9103-V-14). The gas
stream flows to exchanger (9101-E-06) for preheating before entering the Reaction
Furnace (9101-F-01), where the acid gas is burnt by the high intensity burner with a
controlled amount of air. Air is supplied by an electrically driven blower (9101-K-
01A/B) & preheated by exchanger (9101-E-05). The products of the combustion are
cooled in passing through the tube section of the Waste Heat Boiler (9101-E-07) where
a 24 barg steam is generated in the shell side. Gases and any condensed liquid sulphur
from the Waste Heat Boiler flow to the Sulphur Condenser (9101-E-01) where the gases
are cooled and the additional sulphur is condensed. The gases then passes through the
Auxiliary Burner (9101-F-02) where they are reheated by burning a split stream of acid
gas (or fuel gas) with air, before entering the first Claus Converter (9101-V-01). In this
converter the gases flow downwards through a bed of CR 4/8 mm activated alumina,
top loaded with a layer of AM 4/8 catalyst. In the converter, additional elemental
sulphur is produced and carried over in vapour phase by the hot gases. The exothermic
Claus reaction results in a temperature increase through the adiabatic converter. The
hot gases leaving the first converter are cooled in the Sulphur Condenser (9101-E-02)
by generating 5 barg steam, the condensed sulphur flows to the Sulphur Degassing Pit
(9101-T-01/01Z) through Sultraps. The gases from the Sulphur Condenser (9101-E-02)
flow through a coalescer equipped with SS wire mesh pads for the removal of any
entrained sulphur. The gases then passes through the second stage auxiliary burner
(9101-F-03) where they are reheated by burning a split stream of acid gas (or fuel gas)
with air, before entering the second Claus Converter (9101-V-02), loaded with a more
active catalyst CRS 31 and a layer of AM 4/8 mm catalyst on the top of the bed. The
Final Condenser (9101-E-04) ensures cooling of the process gases by preheating the
boiler feed water which is used in the Waste Heat Boiler (91 01-E-07) and the two LP
steam producing 1st stage & 2nd stage condenser (9101-E-01 & 9101-E-02). The process
gases from Final Condenser passes through a Final Separator (9101-V-05) to achieve
complete removal of liquid sulphur drops from the process gases. A coalescer is
provided in Final Separator (9101-V-05). From final separator, the process gas is
routed to Incinerator (9101-F-14), where all remaining sulphur compounds are burnt to
sulphur dioxide. Incineration is achieved by burning fuel gas with a slight excess of air
at a temperature of 800C. The incinerated gas is disposed of to the atmosphere via
stack (9101-X-11). The sulphur produced in the process is extracted from all sulphur
condensers through sultraps and is routed to the Sulphur Degassing Pit (9101-T-01).
The sulphur is degassed through AQUISULF sulphur degassing process. The degassed
sulphur is then transferred to the Storage Tank 9101-T-02 by Sulphur Transfer Pumps
(9101-P-04A/B).

3.1.4 Tail Gas Treatment Unit (TGTU)
The purpose of the Tail Gas Treating Unit is to reduce the hydrogen sulphide
concentration in the tail gas to a level corresponding to >99.5% total sulphur recovery.
All residual hydrogen sulphide is oxidised to sulphur dioxide before it is released to the
atmosphere.
The BSR/Amine process consists of a Beavon Sulphur Recovery (BSR) reducing or

hydrogenation section and a selective amine section. The process uses the BSR
technology to reduce all sulphur compounds in the SRU tail gas to hydrogen sulphide.
This section includes water condensation and separation upstream of the amine
section with a caustic circulation system to protect against SO2 breakthrough, which
degrades the amine and causes severe corrosion.
The amine section uses an amine solution to remove most of the hydrogen sulphide
from the treated sulphur plant tail gas while minimising the co-absorption of carbon
dioxide.
The Claus tail gas from the Final Sulphur Condenser 9101-E-04 is fed to the Reducing
Gas Generator (RGG). The purpose of the Reducing Gas Generator is to generate
reducing gases (H2 and CO). This is achieved by the combustion of fuel gas with a sub-
stoichiometric quantity of air. The production of reducing gases is regulated by
controlling the flow of the fuel gas and air. Air flow is set by the outlet temperature of
the Reducing Gas Generator 9102-F-01 whilst the fuel gas flow rate is set to be a fixed
proportion of the air flow. LP steam is fed to the Reducing Gas Generator to suppress
the formation of carbon. The flow rate of the steam is ratio-controlled according to
the fuel gas flow rate. The tail gas from the Final Sulphur Condenser is mixed with the
hot combustion products in the Reducing Gas Generator to ensure a temperature that
will favour the desired reactions in the Hydrogenation Reactor (9102-V-01).
The Hydrogenation Reactor contains a fixed bed Cobalt/Molybdenum (CoMo) catalyst.
The reactions are exothermic resulting in a temperature rise across the reactor. The
gas is cooled by the generation of LP steam in the Reactor Effluent Cooler.
The tail gas is then desuperheated and the excess water removed in the
Desuperheater/Contact Condenser (9102-C-01). This tower contains an upper packed
section, a chimney tray and a lower section containing packing and bubble cap trays.
In the lower packed section of the tower (Desuperheater section), tail gas is contacted
with a circulating stream of a mildly caustic water solution. This removes sulphur
dioxide and cools the tail gas down. The Desuperheater Circulation Pump (9102-P-
11A/B) pumps the caustic water solution from the bottom of the tower to the top of
the packing. Water make up is provided to the lower (Desuperheater) section, under
level control, from the top (Contact Condenser) section circulation.
The solution is maintained at an alkaline pH of around 9.0 to protect against SO2

breakthrough from the reactor. SO2 causes corrosive conditions in the Desuperheater
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 27 of 517
Contact Condenser and the Amine Absorber, and degrades the amine. The pH of the
circulating liquid is monitored by a continuous analyser and controlled by periodic,
manual addition of fresh caustic solution. An intermittent bleed from this section
removes accumulated contaminants from the circuit.
The desuperheated gas and water vapour then passes through the (wash) bubble cap
trays and the chimney tray into the upper (Contact Condenser) packed section. Here
the gas is cooled by direct contact with a circulating water stream. The water is
pumped by the Cooling Water Circulation Pump from the chimney tray, through the
Contact Condenser Cooler where it is cooled, and back to the top of the tower. The
water that is condensed in this section is slightly sour. Some is used as make up on
demand to the lower Desuperheater section and the remainder is taken off under level
control and sent to effluent treatment. The condensed water loop is kept separate
from the water in the desuperheater circulation loop to avoid contamination with salt
products that may be formed in the Desuperheater section.
The tail gas leaves the Desuperheater Contact Condenser (9102-C-11) at a temperature
of approximately 40C and is sent to the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12) which
uses a lean amine solution to remove the hydrogen sulphide from the tail gas, whilst
minimising the co-absorption of carbon dioxide.
The gas enters at the bottom of the absorber and passes through a packed bed counter
current to the lean amine solution that preferentially absorbs H2S. The lean amine
solution is supplied from the Amine Regenerator.
The Tail Gas Rich Amine Pump (9102-P-16 A/B) pumps the rich solvent solution from
the bottom of the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12) to the Acid Gas Amine
Absorber (9103-C-11) before it is regenerated in the Amine regenerator (9103-C-12).
Treatment Units are shared with the use of a common solvent. The H2S that is stripped
from the rich amine solution in the Amine Regenerator is fed to the Sulphur Recovery
section, thus closing the recycle loop around the SRU and TGTU sections.
Treated gas from the Tail Gas Amine Absorber passes to the Incinerator along with
that from the Acid Gas Amine Absorber and from the Sulphur Pit. The incinerator is
designed to incinerate all sulphur compounds in the streams under normal operation.
It is also used to incinerate additional streams while the TGTU is bypassed or during
start-up or abnormal operating conditions. The flue gas is released to the atmosphere
through the Stack (9101-X-11).

3.1.5 Tail Gas Incinerator
An Incinerator is provided to thermally oxidise all possible sulphur compounds to SO2 in

off gas effluents from the Acid Gas Amine Absorber, Tail Gas Amine Absorber, SRU tail
gases and vent gases from the sulphur Degassing Package. Moreover all BTEX content
of off gas effluent is also destructed.
To ensure complete combustion of these sulphur compounds the Incinerator's

combustion chamber temperature is maintained at a temperature of about 817C by
burning fuel gas supplied with combustion air in the unit's burner. Combustion air is
supplied from 2 x 100% Incinerator Air Blowers (9101-K-12 A/B). The flows of fuel gas
and combustion air are each measured by flow and then ratio controlled to ensure the
correct amount of excess air is always maintained in the Incinerators combustion
chamber to allow the oxidation of the sulphur compounds in the tail and vent gases to
take place. An Oxygen analyser located in the Incinerator outlet combustion gases
ducting monitors the excess O2 in the Incinerators combustion gases. Adjustments may
be made to the fuel gas to air ratio controller to ensure the correct excess of O2 (3% by
Mol) is seen in the stack gases. A SOX/NOX analysers, located part way up the
Incinerator Stack (9101-X-11), monitors the Incinerator stack gases for SOX/NOX
content.

3.1.6 Amine Drain System
Amine drained from pumps and other equipment during times of maintenance and
plant overhaul, is collected in the Amine Sump. The Amine Sump Pump must be
started manual by operations in order to transfer the amine to the Amine System via
the Amine Sump Filter. A differential pressure indicator across the filter monitors the
filter pressure drop. In the event that the amine sump pump is not manually stopped
when the low level alarm is activated then a low low level switch will stop the pump
to prevent loss of suction damage to the pump.
To prevent air ingress into the amine sump a small flow of Nitrogen is introduced into
the amine sump and allowed to pass out of the sump to the atmosphere through
carbon canister.

3.2.3 Sea Cooling Water System
Two Seawater Cooling Pumps 6932-P-04A/B are installed on a new jetty and take
suction from the sea. The pumps are vertical-shaft, constant speed centrifugal pumps
and are electric motor driven. The seawater cooling pumps have a design capacity of
1600 m3/h (each) at a discharge pressure of 5.0 barg.
One pump is normally running, while the other is on standby. Each pump is capable of
supplying a normal flow of 1200 m3/h to users for SRU upgrade.
The water enters the pump through a suction pipe (stilling tube) to reduce turbulence.
A coarse mesh bar suction screen is installed at each pump to prevent seaweed and
other debris from entering the seawater supply system.
From the common discharge of seawater cooling pumps, seawater stream flows via a
new dedicated 24 main supply header to the new Filtration Package Unit (6932-S-
02A/B). The self cleaning rotary type Seawater Filters (one in operation and one on
standby) are capable of removing particle sizes greater than 1000 microns from
seawater and each unit is designed for a flow of 1600 m3/h. The filtered water from
filters is routed to the heat exchangers located in AGEU/TGTU and other users.
The filter skid comprises:
Two Rotary Filters (6932-S-02A/B) and motors

The 2 x 100% filters are equipped with an automatic back-flushing mechanism
which operates on intermittent basis
A small portion of the main seawater (cooling water) flow is diverted downstream of
the filters to provide seawater supply for the Electro Chlorination Unit (6932-A-05).
The Electro Chlorination Unit generates sodium hypochlorite solution. The sodium
hypochlorite solution is injected into Sea Cooling Water Pumps suction lines to control
growth of marine organisms in the Sea Cooling Water System. There is one dedicated
new Electro Chlorination Unit.
In addition, a dedicated Biocide Injection Unit (6932-A-06) for effective control of

growth of marine organisms and a dedicated Scale Inhibitor Injection Unit (6932-A-07)
to prevent formation of mineral scales in the Sea Cooling Water system are also
provided for existing as well new Sea Cooling Water Systems.
The new Cooling Water System is a once through system and the seawater returned
from the SRU upgrade facilities is discharged into existing Seawater Observation Sump
(6932-X-01) which has a retention capacity of 60 m3.
From the sump the seawater overflows to the sea. To prevent fouling the temperature
of cooling water from each exchanger outlet should not exceed the maximum
allowable temperature limit of 45C. A tie in to the existing NGL-3/4 seawater supply
system is also provided to supply seawater from the new Sea Water Pumps.

3.2.4 Boiler Feed Water System
Boiler Feed Water (BFW) is required for the generation of MP and LP steam in the gas
fired water Steam Generators (6848-A-02 A/B/C). The Boiler Feed Water, consists of a
mixture of LP steam condensate and Demineralised Water make-up.
The Boiler Feed Water system includes the following equipment:
Description Equipment Tag No.

Steam condensate Flash Drum 6834-V-05
Deaerator Feed Pumps 6834-P-20A/B
Steam Condensate Cooler 6834-E-02
Boiler Feed Water Deaerator Package 6834-A-08
Boiler Feed Water Pumps 6834-P-22 A/B/C
BFW Chemical Injection Package
O2 Scavenger Injection Pumps 6834-A-09
Complex Product Injection Pumps
The Boiler Feed Water passes through a Steam Condensate Flash Drum 6834-V-05
where the flash steam cools down the inventory to 102C to prevent cavitations in
Deaerator Feed Pumps.
The DMW Condensate is pumped by the Deaerator Feed Pumps to the heating section
of a Thermal Deaerator where all the free carbon dioxide and the oxygen up to 5 ppb
are removed by heating and scrubbing the water with the LP saturated steam at
0.2 barg pressure.
The extracted dissolved gases such as O2, CO2 and water vapour are discharged
through restriction orifice (68-RO-1305) to atmosphere.
A dose of Oxygen Scavenger is injected into the hold up section of the Deaerator to

3.2.5 Steam Generation Package 6848-A-02A/B/C
The MP steam boiler package 6834-A-02A/B/C includes three boilers, two operating
and one stand-by. Each boiler has a nominal steam generating capacity of 45 T/h.
The Boiler Feed Water enters the external Economizer 6848-E-01A, which is a finned
tubes heat exchanger (water/flue gas). The feed water is heated by the flue gas
thermal heat in the flue gas path. In case sour fuel gas is used, the boiler feed water is
sent to a preheating water circuit installed inside the water drum, before going to the
Economiser 6848-E-01A. This is to avoid acid condensation inside the flue gas duct.
From the Economizer outlet, the feed water enters into the boiler upper drum called
Steam Drum 6848-V-02A. Boiler functioning relies on steam/water natural
circulation, with evaporating rising circuits formed by the hottest tubes of boiler
evaporating bank. Remaining tubes acts as downcomers, which feed the rising circuits.
In the boiler evaporating tubes, the mixture of saturated water & steam is produced.
Then through the steam drum internal separators, the saturated steam is separated
from the saturated water droplets. The steam then passes through the steam header
and reaches the temperature and pressure controlling stations. The pressure is
controlled by a pressure control valve 68-PV-1524 and the temperature is controlled by
water injection type Desuperheater 6848-X-03A.
The combustion air for the boiler is supplied by a Forced Draft Fan 6848-K-02A, driven
by an electric motor. At the inlet of the FD Fan 6848-K-02A, a Grid Filter 684803A, a
Sand Filter 6848-S-02A and a silencer 6848-X-06A are provided. Downstream of this,
the modulating inlet control damper is provided. At the outlet the air passes through a
duct that delivers air to wind box. The combustion air measuring device 68-FE-1526 is
provided in this duct. Air is supplied to the burners through the wind box.
When the combustion takes place, the high temperature flue gas pass through the
boiler furnace, enclosed by water cooled tubes.
The flue gases at the end of the combustion chamber, turn to 180 and pass through
the evaporative convective section. The convective section is located on the right side
of the furnace.
The flue gases then pass through the Economizer and reach the stack.
A Flue Gas Recirculation Fan 6848-K-03A, which takes suction from the flue gas
Economizer downstream duct and discharges to the combustion air measuring device
68-FE-1526 provided in combustion air duct, is provided. In order to meet the
specified low emissions target, at high boiler load, the burners can be operated in flue
gas recirculation mode, the combustion air is mixed with a proper flue gas flow rate
(about 15% of nominal flow rate).

The steam generator is provided with one burner, designed to burn both sour and
sweet fuel gas. The burner is designed to have a turndown of 10:1. Burner is provided
with a pilot which is of high energy type.

3.2.6 Fuel Gas System
LP fuel gas is required for

New Steam Generation Boilers 6848-A-02A/B/C
The main normal LP fuel gas supply for the new MP Steam Boiler Package (6848-A-02-
A/B/C) and Waste Water Degasser (6922-V-07) blanketing is supplied from the first
stage suction of the existing Booster Compressors (6701-K-10120/30) in NGL-3. In
addition, two back up sources are provided; the first is the fuel gas from (6103-K-01
A/B) with a second backup from existing 30 line to Point B. The new fuel gas supply
system will consist of a letdown station, Fuel Gas KO Drum (6236-V-05), and a supply
header to the Steam Boilers and Waste Water Degasser. The source pressure from the
take-off point is let down to 7 barg through the pressure control valve 62-PV-1301A
before entering the LP Fuel Gas KO Drum. The source pressure of the fuel gas from
6103-K-01 A/B is 20 barg whilst that of feed gas from the 30 line is 45 barg. The
former is let down to 7 barg through the pressure control valve 62-PV-1301 B and the
latter via 62-PV-1302.

3.2.7 Effluent and Waste Water Treatment Unit
The sour water resulting from the new facilities added as part of the SRU Upgrade
Project contains high levels of dissolved sulphides which need to be removed before
the waste water can be discharged to the marine environment. The acceptable levels
of sulphides is 0.1 mg/l (0.1 ppmw) and to achieve this the sour water is treated in the
sour water treatment system.
Sour water from various sources is collected in the Degassing Drum, which provides
over 20 minutes of hold-up for the waste water. The flow of waste water from
Desuperheater/Contact Condenser (9102-C-11) is continuous at a rate of 8.7 m3/h
whilst all other sources are intermittent. The sour water from the degasser is
continuously pumped under flow control by Waste Water Degasser Pumps (6922-P-
08A/B) to the Sour Water Stripper Unit for treatment.
In the event the Sour Water Treatment System is unavailable due to a process upset,
provision exists for manually routing the degasser liquids directly to the Observation
Sump (6922-X-04).
A balance line between Degassing Drum and Sour Water Stripper 6922-C-01 means that
the pressure in the Degassing Drum floats on the stripper operating pressure (i.e.
1.0 barg). A nitrogen supply line is provided to maintain pressure in the drum if it falls
below a certain minimum as liquids are pumped out.
The sour water from degasser drum is filtered in 6922-S-06 and then preheated in Sour
Stripped Water Exchanger 6922-E-01 before feeding to Sour Water Stripper 6922-C-01.
The Sour Water Stripper operates at 1.0 barg and has an upper section and a lower
tray section.
The sour water is stripped by the vapours generated from the Sour Water Stripper
Reboiler 6922-E-04. The Reboiler utilises LP steam to heat the sour water that comes
from the bottom of the Sour Water Stripper to 126C. The condensed steam from the
Reboiler is sent to the LP Condensate system through level control.
Reflux for the column is provided by a pump-around system. Water is taken from below
tray 33 pumped by Stripper Overheads Circulation Pumps 6922-P-11A/B under flow
control, cooled in Stripper Overheads Cooler 6922-E-03 and then returned to the top tray.
The stripper overhead acid gases are routed to the AGEU (upstream of 9103-V-14). In
the event of high column pressure, excess gases are diverted to LP Acid Gas flare.
The stripped water from the stripper is pumped under level control cascaded to a flow
controller via Stripped Water Pump 6922-P-10A/B to the Sour/Stripped Water
Exchanger 6922-E-01 to preheat the feed to the stripper. The water is then routed to
the Stripper Water Cooler 6922-E-02 where it is cooled to 55C before discharge to the
Observation Sump.
An analyser is provided in the line to the Observation Sump to monitor the sulphide
content of the stripped water stream.

4.1.2 AGEU PROCESS DESCRIPTION & CONTROL
4.1.2.1 Acid Gas Enrichment Unit Process Chemistry
The function of the amine solvent is:
To enrich the week acid gas stream from the upstream gas sweetening units in an Acid
Gas Amine Absorber so that the H2S content of the acid gas is increased to a point that
will make the gas easier to process in the downstream SRU.
The H2S in the acid gases from the upstream gas sweetening unit are absorbed by
amine solvent in the Acid Gas Amine Absorber. Similarly the H2S gases produced in the
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 59 of 517
TGTU are absorbed by amine in the Tail Gas Amine Absorber. The combined rich
amines from both the absorber are routed to the Amine Regenerator where the H2S is
stripped from the amine by heating. The stripped gases from the regenerator system
are routed to SRU.
Hydrogen Sulphide, H2S or HSH is a weak acid and ionizes in water to form hydrogen
ions and sulphide ions.
HSH H+ + SH-
Since it is a weak acid, only a small fraction of the HSH will ionize.
Ethanolamines are weak bases and ionize in water to form amine ions and hydroxyl
ions:
(CH3)z (CH3)z

(CH2OHCH2)x NHy + H2O (CH2OHCH2)x NHy+1 + OH-
Where for MDEA x = 2, y = 0, z = 1
When H2S dissolves into the solution containing the amine ions, it will react to form a
weakly bonded salt of the acid and the base.
(CH3)z (CH3)z

(CH2OHCH2)x NHy+1 + SH- (CH2OHCH2)x NHyS
The sulphide ion is thus absorbed by the amine solution.
This salt formation reaction does not go to completion. As the arrow indicates, and
equilibrium level of sulphide ion, SH- remains in the sour gas stream. The overall
reaction can be summarized by the following equation:
(CH3)z (CH3)z

(CH2OHCH2)x NHy + H2S (CH2OHCH2)x N HyS
Operating variables are adjusted to favour the forward reaction (absorption process)
and conversely, adjusted to favour the reverse reaction (regeneration process).
4.1.2.2 Acid Gas Enrichment Unit Process Description
Lean acid gas enters the unit at a temperature of 53C and a pressure of 0.55 barg.
This stream is cooled in Acid Gas Coolers (9103-E-101A/B), before passing to the Lean
Acid Gas KO Drum (9103-V-14). The Acid Gas Coolers (9103-E-101A/B) are cooled by
sea cooling water. The outlet temperature of the Acid Gas Coolers (9103-E-101A/B) is
maintained at 49C.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 60 of 517
The Lean Acid Gas KO Drum allows bulk removal of any condensed/entrained liquid
from upstream. The liquid level in the Lean Acid Gas KO Drum is controlled by
pumping the liquid through the Acid Gas KO Drum Return Pumps (9103-P-14A/B) to the
existing MDEA storage tank. Alternatively, the sour water can be routed to the sour
water stripper, through a normally closed isolation valve.
Vapour leaves the Lean Acid Gas KO Drum and fed to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber
(9103-C-11), at the bottom. The vapour passes upwards through a trayed section in
contact with a lean amine solution. The counter current contact with the amine
solution essentially removes all the H2S and some of the mercaptans and part of the
CO2 from the vapour stream. If any BTEX exists in the lean acid gas, it is expected that
80-90% will slip directly to the Incinerator.
The Acid Gas Amine Absorber (9103-C-11) consists of 10 numbers of valved trays. The
feed gas enters below the bottom of the bottom tray. The lean amine enters over the
top of the top tray.
Lean amine flow to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber is controlled by the flow controller
91-FIC-1501; set point for the controller 91-FIC-1501 is calculated in the block 91-FFY-
1502 by multiplying the acid gas/lean amine ratio set point (0.02) provided through
91-HIC-1502, with the pressure and temperature compensated acid gas flow (91-FY-
1502). 91-FIC-1501 regulates the lean amine flow to the acid gas amine absorber via
the control valve 91-FV-1501.
Acid gas amine absorber (9103-C-11) top pressure is controlled at 0.2 barg by the
pressure controller 91-PIC-1502. The pressure is maintained through the pressure
control valve 91-PV-1502 located in the treated gas line to the Incinerator.
Rich amine from the Tail Gas Amine Absorber enters at the bottom of the column.
Treated gas leaving the top of the absorber (9103-C-11) goes to the Incinerator
(9101-F-14). The rich amine solution, containing absorbed acid gas, is combined with
solvent from the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12). It is removed from the column
by the Acid Gas Rich Amine Pump (9103-P-12A/B). This stream is then heated in the
Lean/Rich Exchanger, before it is fed to the Amine Regenerator (9103-C-12). The rich
amine flow rate is controlled to maintain the level in the Acid Gas Amine Absorber.
Treatment Units are shared with the use of a common solvent.
The Amine Regenerator 9103-C-12 consists of 24 numbers of valved trays and one
chimney tray. The rich amine enters over the top of the 3rd tray from the top. The rich
amine flow is controlled by the flow controller 91-FIC-1520B. The pressure of the
Regenerator is controlled by supplying nitrogen through a pressure controller 91-PIC-
1539. The Regenerator Reboiler vapours enter the bottom of the vessel.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 61 of 517
The Reboiler is heated by LP Steam which is drawn from the steam distribution
header. Steam flow to the Regenerator Reboiler is controlled by 91-FIC-1503 which
regulates the control valve 91-FV-1503. Set point-1 (SP1) for the steam flow control is
received from the calculation block 91-FFY-1503A which multiplies the rich amine flow
controller 91-FIC-1520A output and manually provided set ratio (118.5) between steam
and rich amine through 91-HIC-1503. Set point-2 (SP2) is received from the output of
the Regenerator overhead temperature controller 91-TIC-1510. During normal
operation SP1 take precedence and when the temperature of the Regenerator over
head reaches more than 118C SP2 will take precedence.
In the Amine Regenerator, the rich solution is stripped counter currently with vapours
generated by the Amine Regenerator Reboiler. The bottom of the column is
maintained at a temperature by regulating the LP steam flow rate into the
Regenerator Reboiler (9103-E-13). The stripping action in the lower section removes
and releases the contaminants from the solution, such as the acid gases, mercaptans
and residual dissolved hydrocarbons.
The stripped vapours are cooled in the Regenerator Condenser Cooler (9103-E-12), and
the Regenerator Condenser Trim Cooler (9103-E-16), by regulating air flow by fans in
Regenerator Condenser Cooler and adjusting the flow rate of Sea water to the
Regenerator Condenser Trim Cooler. Any water and amine in the overhead stream is
condensed and collects in the Regenerator Reflux Drum (9103-V-12). The liquid
collected from the Regenerator Reflux Drum is pumped by the Regnerator Reflux Drum
Pumps 9103-P-11 A/B back to the Regenerator. There is a provision to send the liquid
to the Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07. The reflux flow rate is controlled by
maintaining the liquid level in the Regenerator Reflux Drum. Acid gas from the
Regenerator Reflux Drum passes overhead to the Sulphur Recovery Unit.
Hot lean amine solution from the Regenerator is pumped to the Amine Surge Tank
(9103-T-11) by the Hot Lean Amine Pump (9103-P-17 A/B). The Lean/Rich Exchanger
(9103-E-11), Lean Amine Cooler (9103-E-14) and Lean Amine Trim Cooler (9103-E-15)
cool the solution prior to the Amine Surge Tank. The lean solution from the Amine
Surge Tank is pumped to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber and the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber via the Lean Amine Pump (9103-P-13A/B). A slipstream is taken off after the
pump and returns to the surge tank through the Lean Amine Filter (9103-S-11),
Activated Carbon Filter (9103-S-12) and the Fines Filter (9103-S-13). The filters remove
particulate matter from the stream as well as hydrocarbons that accumulate in the
Amine solution.
The Amine Surge Tank (9103-T-11) receives the recycle flow from the filter circuit and
the Regenerator. It has the capacity to hold the whole system inventory at shut down.
The Amine Surge Tank is maintained at a slightly positive pressure, however not high
enough to be able to float on the flare header to maintain pressure and stop ingress of
Oxygen. Therefore it is provided with Nitrogen blanketing to prevent air ingress and to
minimise the risk of solution degradation.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 62 of 517
All the amine drains from the unit is collected in the Amine Sump 9103-V-10. The
collected amine is pumped to the Amine Surge Tank through the amine filters. The
amine sump is blanketed with nitrogen at a slightly positive pressure.

4.2.2 Revamped Claus Unit Process Chemistry
The function of a SRU is to process H2S rich acid gases to produce liquid elemental
Sulphur. The sulphur recovery Claus process combines 2 mols of H2S with 1 mol. of SO2
to form elemental sulphur.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 78 of 517
In the modified Claus process some of the H2S rich acid gas is burnt with the correct
amount of Oxygen (from air) to oxidise one third of the H2S to SO2:
Main Reactions:
H2S + 3/2O2 > SO2 + H2O
This reaction produces a high enough temperature to trigger the Claus reaction
thermally:
2H2S + SO2 > 3S + 2H2O
The Claus reaction is continued at progressively lower temperatures in the two

catalytic stages where the remaining H2S then combines with the SO2 & produce
elemental Sulphur.
4.2.3 Revamped Claus Unit Process Description
The acid gas stream from the gas treating plant enters the Acid Gas KO Drum (9101-V-
04) where acid water is knocked out and pumped to Amine Sump 9103-V-10 by the
Acid Water Pumps 9101-P-01A/B. The gas stream flows to Acid Gas Preheater (9101-E-
06) for preheating before entering the Reaction Furnace (9101-F-01), where the acid
gas is burnt by the high intensity burner with a controlled amount of air. Air is
supplied by an electrically driven Process Air Blower (9101-K-01A/B) & preheated by
Air Preheater (9101-E-05).
The products of the combustion are cooled in passing through the tube section of the
Reaction Furnace Boiler (9101-E-07) where a 24 bar(g) steam is generated in the shell
side. Gases and any condensed liquid sulphur from the Reaction Furnace Boiler flow to
the Reaction Furnace Condenser (9101-E-01) where the gases are cooled and the
additional sulphur is condensed. The gases then passes through the 1st Stage Auxiliary
Burner (9101-F-02) where they are reheated by burning a split stream of acid gas (or
fuel gas) with air, before entering the 1st Stage Converter (9101-V-01).
In this converter the gases flow downwards through a bed of CR 4/8 mm activated
alumina, top loaded with a layer of AM 4/8 catalyst. In the converter, additional
elemental sulphur is produced and carried over in vapour phase by the hot gases. The
exothermic Claus reaction results in a temperature increase through the adiabatic
converter. The hot gases leaving the first converter are cooled in the 1st Stage
Condenser (9101-E-02) by generating 5 barg steam, the condensed sulphur flows to the
Sulphur Degassing Pit (9101-T-01/01B) through Sultraps.
The gases from the Sulphur Condenser (9101-E-02) flow through a coalescer equipped
with SS wire mesh pads for the removal of any entrained sulphur. The gases then
passes through the 2nd Stage Auxiliary Burner (9101-F-03) where they are reheated by
burning a split stream of acid gas (or fuel gas) with air, before entering the 2nd Stage
Converter (9101-V-02), loaded with a more active catalyst CRS 31 and a layer of AM
4/8 mm catalyst on the top of the bed.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 79 of 517
The Last Condenser (9101-E-04) ensures cooling of the process gases by preheating the
Boiler Feed Water which is used in the Reaction Furnace Boiler (9101-E-07) and the
two LP steam producing Reaction Furnace Condenser (9101-E-01) & 1st Stage
Condenser (9101-E-02). The process gases from Last Condenser passes through a Final
Separator (9101-V-05) to achieve complete removal of liquid sulphur drops from the
process gases. A coalescer is provided in Final Separator (9101-V-05).
From final separator, the process gas is routed to Tail Gas Treatment Unit, where the
hydrogen sulphide concentration in the tail gas is reduced to a level corresponding to
>99.5% total sulphur recovery.
The sulphur produced in the process is extracted from all sulphur condensers through
sultraps and is routed to the Sulphur Degassing Pits (9101-T-01/9101-T-01B). The
sulphur is degassed through AQUISULF sulphur degassing process. The degassed sulphur
is then transferred to the Sulphur Storage Tank 9101-T-02 by Sulphur Product Pumps
(9101-P-04A/B & 9101-P-10A/B).
4.2.4 Sulphur Recovery Unit Process Control
4.2.4.1 Pipe Separator Level Control
The acid gas stream from NGL-3 AGRU-1 & 2 enters the pipe separator where the acid
gas is routed to the top of the separator to AGEU acid gas coolers and the bottom
liquid is drained to amine drain distribution header.
Level in the vessel is maintained by regulating the control valve 91-LV-1053, in the
pipe separator bottom to amine drain distribution header through 91-LIC-1053.
Control Loops:

91-LIC-1053 Pipe separator level control % 50 14 98
Low low level alarm (91-LALL-1054) set at 33% in the pipe separator closes the
liquid outlet block valve 91-XV-1109.
Pipe separator level control valve 91-LV-1503 to amine drain distribution header
closes on instrument air failure.
4.2.4.2 BFW Pre-heater Temperature Control
Temperature of the heated water outlet from the BFW pre heater is monitored by
91-TT-1091 and controlled by 91-TIC-1091.
Temperature control is achieved by regulating the LP steam flow control valve

91-FV-1057 to BFW Preheater by 91-FIC-1057. The MASTER temperature controller
91-TIC-1091 is cascaded with SLAVE steam flow controller 91-FIC-1057.

4.2.4.3 Last Condenser Outlet Tail Gas Control
Tail gas from the Last Condenser is routed to the Incinerator through 91-XV-1097
during start-up and during normal operation tail gas is routed to TGTU through 91-XV-
1098.
This diversion is achieved by activating the selector switch 91-HS-1052A. This opens
the valve 91-XV-1098, when 91-XV-1098 is fully open the valve 91-XV-1097 closes.
This ensures that at least one path is fully open for the tail gas to pass through without
pressuring the upstream reaction furnace.
High high pressure alarm 91-PAHH-1055 set at 0.73 barg opens the valve 91-XV-
1097 to Incinerator and closes the valve 91-XV-1098 to RGG

4.2.4.4 New Sulphur Degassing Pit Level Control
New Sulphur Degassing Pit (9101-T-01B) level is measured by 91-LT-1051 which sends
the signal to the level controller 91-LIC-1051.
Level control is achieved by regulating the control valve 91-LV-1051 to the sulphur
storage tank (9101-T-02).

91-LIC-1051 Sulphur Degassing Pit level % 50 17 80
Low low level alarm 91-LALL-1052 set at 10% trips the Sulphur Degassing Pumps

4.2.4.5 Combustion Control for 1st Stage Auxiliary Burner
During normal operation the Air/Acid Gas ratio controller maintains the temperature
of the process gas and when the acid gas flow decreases, the temperature of the
process gas is maintained by the Air to Fuel gas ratio controller. Selection of this
controller can be either manual through 91-HS-1028A or automatically when the
temperature 91-TICA-1007 of the 1st stage burner outlet reduces below the desired set
point (210C). This reduction in temperature stops the acid gas flow in the 1st stage
auxiliary burner.
Acid gas flow to 1st stage auxiliary burner is controlled by 91-FIC-1019 and fuel gas flow
is controlled by 91-FIC-1020, set point for both the controllers is provided by 91-TICA-
1007 via selector switch 91-HS-1028A. 91-FIC-1019 commands the acid gas flow valve
91-FV-1019 and 91-FIC-1020 commands the fuel gas control valve 91-FV-1020.
Ratio set point (air/fuel gas) and (air/acid gas) is provided via 91-HIC-1018A and
91-HIC-1018B, respectively.
Combustion air flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1018. Set point for the controller is
provided by air/acid gas or air/fuel gas ratio calculation as per selection through
91-HS-1028B and output of the combustion air flow controller 91-FIC-1018 directly
commands the air damper valve 91-FV-1018.

4.2.4.6 Combustion Control for 2nd Stage Auxiliary Burner
During normal operation the Air/Acid Gas ratio control maintains the temperature of
the process gas flowing through the catalytic converter and then to sulphur condenser.
When the Acid gas flow decreases, the temperature of the process gas is maintained
by the Air to Fuel gas ratio controller. The selection of this controller can be either
manual through 91-HS-1029A or automatically when the temperature 91-TIC-1019
reduces below the desired set point (210C). This reduction in temperature stops acid
gas flow and introduce fuel gas flow in the 2nd stage Auxiliary burner.
Acid gas flow to 2nd Stage Auxiliary Burner is controlled by 91-FIC-1026 and the fuel gas
flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1027. Set point for both the controllers is provided by 2nd
Stage Auxiliary Burner temperature controller 91-TIC-1019 via selector switch
91-HS-1029A. Output of the controller 91-FIC-1026 commands the acid gas flow control
valve 91-FV-1026 and Output of the controller 91-FIC-1027 commands the fuel gas
Ratio set point (air/fuel gas) and (air/acid gas) is provided by operator via 91-HIC-
1025A and 91-HIC-1025B, respectively.
Combustion air flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1025. Set point for the controller is
provided by air/acid gas or air/fuel gas ratio calculation as per selection through
91-HS-1029B. Output of the combustion air flow controller 91-FIC-1025 commands the

4.2.4.7 Combustion Control for Reaction Furnace
Combustion temperature in the Reaction Furnace is maintained by controlling the ratio

of fuel gas, combustion air flow rates during start-up and by acid gas, combustion air
flow rates during normal operations.
Fuel gas flow to reaction furnace is controlled by 91-FIC-1009 which commands the
fuel gas control valve 91-FV-1009. Secondary combustion air flow to reaction furnace
is controlled by 91-FIC-1002B; Set point for the controller is calculated in the block
91-FY-1009 by multiplying fuel gas flow with AIR/FG ratio, which is manually provided
via 91-HIC-1009. Secondary air flow is regulated by 91-FV-1002B.
Trim air (make-up) flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1003; set point for the controller is
provided by analyzer controller 91-AIC-1001 which measures the H2S/SO2 ratio (4:1).
91-FIC-1003 throttles the damper 91-FV-1003.
Air selection to the reaction furnace is done by 91-HS-1142 (Secondary air during
start-up and trim air during normal operations).
Acid gas flow to the reaction furnace is measured by 91-FT-1001 which determines the
quantity of combustion air to the reaction furnace. Pressure, temperature
Compensated acid gas flow to reaction furnace is indicated by 91-FI-1001A.
Acid gas analyzer value in the reflux drum is measured by 91-AI-1502. 91-HIC-1001 bias
range (80%-120%) is manually provided as (Main air flow)/(total air flow) * 100.
Main combustion air flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1002, and set point for the main
combustion air flow controller is calculated in the block 91-FFY-1001A as: 2.38*(91-AI-
1502/100)* (91-FI-1001A)*(91-HIC-1001)/100.
91-FFY-1001B a bias block receives the remote set point from 91-FFY-1001A, which adds
or subtracts the bias value received from the selector/auto trigger switch 91-HS-1142.
When the manipulated variable received by 91-HS-1142 is >=80%, then it adds 1.25% of
91-FIC-1002 set point at each 30sec to the bias block 91-FFY-1001B and when the
manipulated variable received by 91-HS-1142 is <=20%, then it subtracts 1.25% of
91-FIC-1002 set point at each 30 sec to the bias block 91-FFY-1001B.

4.3.2 Tail Gas Treatment Unit (TGTU) Process Description
The Tail Gas Treating Unit reduces the hydrogen sulphide concentration in the tail gas
to a level corresponding to >99.5% total sulphur recovery. All residual hydrogen
sulphide is oxidised to sulphur dioxide before it is released to the atmosphere.
The BSR/Amine process consists of a Reducing Gas Generator section, Hydrogenation

section, Desuperheater/Contactor section and a selective amine absorption section.
The process uses the BSR technology to reduce all sulphur compounds in the SRU tail
gas to hydrogen sulphide. This section includes water condensation and separation
upstream of the amine section with a caustic circulation system to protect against SO2
breakthrough, which degrades the amine and causes severe corrosion.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 93 of 517
The amine section uses an amine solution to remove most of the hydrogen sulphide
from the treated sulphur plant tail gas while minimising the co-absorption of carbon
dioxide.
The Claus tail gas from the Final Separator 9101-V-05 is fed to the Reducing Gas
Generator (RGG) 9102-F-11. The purpose of the Reducing Gas Generator is to generate
reducing gases (H2 and CO). This is achieved by the combustion of fuel gas with a sub-
stoichiometric quantity of air. The production of reducing gases is regulated by
controlling the flow of the fuel gas and air. Air flow is set by the outlet temperature of
the Reducing Gas Generator 9102-F-11 while the fuel gas flow rate is set to be a fixed
proportion of the air flow. LP steam is fed to the Reducing Gas Generator to suppress
the formation of carbon. The flow rate of the steam is ratio-controlled according to
the fuel gas flow rate. The tail gas from the Final Separator 9101-V-05 is mixed with
the hot combustion products in the Reducing Gas Generator to ensure a temperature
that will favour the desired reactions in the Hydrogenation Reactor (9102-V-11).
The Hydrogenation Reactor contains a fixed bed Cobalt/Molybdenum (CoMo) catalyst.
The reactions are exothermic resulting in a temperature rise across the reactor. The
gas is cooled by the generation of LP steam in the Reactor Effluent Cooler 9102-E-11.
The tail gas is then desuperheated and the excess water removed in the
Desuperheater/Contact Condenser (9102-C-11). This tower contains an upper packed
section, a chimney tray and a lower section containing packing and bubble cap trays.
In the lower packed section of the tower (Desuperheater section), tail gas is contacted
with a circulating stream of a mildly caustic water solution. This removes sulphur
dioxide and cools the tail gas down. The Desuperheater Circulation Pump (9102-P-
11A/B) pumps the caustic water solution from the bottom of the tower to the top of
the packing. Water make up is provided to the lower (Desuperheater) section, under
level control, from the top (Contact Condenser) section circulation.
The solution is maintained at an alkaline pH of around 9.0 to protect against SO2

breakthrough from the reactor. SO2 causes corrosive conditions in the Desuperheater
Contact Condenser and the Amine Absorber, and degrades the amine. The pH of the
circulating liquid is monitored by a continuous analyser and controlled by periodic,
manual addition of fresh caustic solution. An intermittent bleed from this section
removes accumulated contaminants from the circuit.
The desuperheated gas and water vapour then passes through the (wash) bubble cap
trays and the chimney tray into the upper (Contact Condenser) packed section. Here
the gas is cooled by direct contact with a circulating water stream. The water is
pumped by the Cooling Water Circulation Pump from the chimney tray, through the
Contact Condenser Cooler 9102-E-12 and Contact Condenser Trim Cooler 9102-E-13A/B
where it is cooled, and back to the top of the tower. The water that is condensed in
this section is slightly sour. Some is used as make up on demand to the lower
Desuperheater section and the remainder is taken off under level control and sent to
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 94 of 517
effluent treatment. The condensed water loop is kept separate from the water in the
Desuperheater circulation loop to avoid contamination with salt products that may be
formed in the Desuperheater section.
The tail gas leaves the Desuperheater Contact Condenser (9102-C-11) at a temperature
of approximately 40C and is sent to the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12) which
uses a lean amine solution to remove the hydrogen sulphide from the tail gas, while
minimising the co-absorption of carbon dioxide.
The gas enters at the bottom of the absorber and passes through a trayed section
counter current to the lean amine solution that preferentially absorbs H2S. The lean
amine solution is supplied from the Lean Amine Pumps 9103-P-13A/B.
The Tail Gas Rich Amine Pump (9102-P-16 A/B) pumps the rich solvent solution from
the bottom of the Tail Gas Amine Absorber (9102-C-12) to the Acid Gas Amine
Absorber (9103-C-11) before it is regenerated in the Amine regenerator (9103-C-12).
Treatment Units are shared with the use of a common solvent. The H2S that is stripped
from the rich amine solution in the Amine Regenerator is fed to the Sulphur Recovery
section, thus closing the recycle loop around the SRU and TGTU sections.
Treated gas from the Tail Gas Amine Absorber passes to the Incinerator along with
that from the Acid Gas Amine Absorber and from the Sulphur Pit.
4.3.3 Tail Gas Treatment Unit Control Description
4.3.3.1 Controls for RGG Combustion Air Blower (9102-K-11A/B)
4.3.3.1.1 Surge Protection
The basic objectives of the surge protection system are:
To prevent surge-induced compressor damage and process upsets without

sacrificing energy efficiency
To maintain selected process-limiting variables within safe or acceptable range
To achieve these objectives, the anti surge controller manipulates the position of
a blow-off valve and IGV (inlet pressure control)
4.3.3.1.2 Anti surge Protection
The regulation of the combustion air blower valves is implemented on the CCC Anti-
surge controller.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 95 of 517
CCC receives the following signals from the compressor skid (9102-K-11A/B) to perform
the pressure and anti-surge regulation:

Note: 9102-K-11A controls are discussed in the following section.
After processing all the above signals, CCC controls the IGV 91-PCV-1453 and blow-off
valve 91-FCV-1451.
CCC also provides trip signal 91-XS-1464 for excessive surge to ESD to stop the
compressor.
When the blower is started IGV 91-PCV-1453 receives a minimum opening signal from
CCC which is a pre-set value on CCC and the blow-off valve 91-FCV-1451 remains open.
When the compressor is loaded, CCC modulates the IGV 91-PCV-1453 and blow-off
valve 91-FCV-1451 to maintain the discharge air pressure constant.
4.3.3.1.3 IGV 91-PCV-1453
The regulation system of compressor IGV valve 91-PCV-1453 is of the constant pressure
type.
After the loading of compressor the pressure regulation loop stabilizes and the IGV
91-PCV-1453 opens or closes only when the air required by the machine varies, so as to
maintain the discharge pressure of the blower within the set-point defined.
4.3.3.1.4 Blow-off Valve 91-FCV-1451
The anti-surge regulation loop provides to regulate the blow-off valve 91-FCV-1451 by
a continuous calculation of the discharge pressure 91-PT-1452 and discharge flow
91-FT-1452. When the flow is higher than the pressure the result of the calculation
closes the blow-off valve. When the pressure is higher than the flow the result of the
calculation opens the blow-off valve.

4.3.3.2 Reducing Gas Generator Controls
4.3.3.2.1 Hydrogenation Reactor I/L Temperature Control
The Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperature is controlled through 91-TIC-1307 by

adjusting the air and the fuel Gas flow rates to the Reducing Gas Generator.
The Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperature is controlled by 91-TIC-1307, output of

the controller 91-TIC-1307 is directly fed to the combustion air flow controller 91-FIC-
1304 as a set point and output of the controller 91-FIC-1304 regulates the air flow
damper 91-FV-1304.
Fuel gas flow is controlled by 91-FIC-1311; set point for the fuel gas controller is
derived in the block 91-UY-1304 by multiplying the air flow with AIR/FG ratio set value
provided from 91-HIC-1304 (Range: 0.09 to 0.15).
Output of the controller 91-FIC-1311commands the fuel gas control valve 91-FV-1311.
If the Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperature increases, then controller 91-TIC-1307

shall first decrease the Set point of combustion air flow controller 91-FIC-1304, which
in turn decrease the set point of fuel gas controller 91-FIC-1311 and vice versa.
4.3.3.2.2 Steam Flow Control
LP steam is injected directly in to the RGG burner in a ratio of steam to fuel gas to
suppress the formation of soot. Steam flow to RGG is measured by 91-FT-1310 which is
fed as a process variable to the steam flow controller 91-FIC-1310, set point for the
controller is calculated by multiplying the process variable from 91-FIC-1311(FG flow)
with the STEAM/FG ratio manually provided via 91-HIC-1311(2.0:1.0).
Output (0-100%) of the controller 91-FIC-1310 directly commands the control valve
91-FV-1310.

4.3.3.3 Reactor Effluent Cooler Controls
4.3.3.3.1 Reactor Effluent Cooler Level Control
Hydrogenated process gases from the Hydrogenation Reactor are cooled in the Reactor
Effluent Cooler (9102-E-11) and generates LP steam in the shell side of the cooler.
The water level in the Reactor Effluent Cooler is maintained by level controller 91-LIC-
1302 by monitoring the level through 91-LT-1302, level control is achieved by
controlling the boiler feed water inlet to the Reactor Effluent Cooler through the
control valve 91-LV-1302.

failure.
4.3.3.3.2 Reactor Effluent Cooler Outlet Tail Gas Control
In normal operation tail gas from the Reactor Effluent Cooler will be routed to Contact
Condenser but during start-up tail gas is diverted to the Incinerator.
This diversion of tail gas is accomplished by activating the selector switch 91-HS-
1303A. This opens the valve 91-XV-1332 (tail gas going to the Contact Condenser) and
when it is fully open the valve 91-XV-1331 will close (tail gas going to the incinerator).
This ensures that at least one path is fully open for the tail gas to pass through without
pressuring the upstream reducing gas generator RGG.
4.3.3.4 Desuperheater/Contact Condenser Controls
4.3.3.4.1 Desuperheater/Contact Condenser Column Bottom Level Control
The Desuperheater Circulation Pump (9102-P-11A/B) takes suction from the

Desuperheater/Contact Condenser (9102-C-11) bottom and circulates water to the
column through Wash Water Filter (9102-S-15). The Desuperheater/Contact Condenser
column bottom level is maintained by the level controller 91-LIC-1307, regulating the
level control valve 91-LV-1307, which controls slip stream of water flow from the
Cooling Water Circulation Pumps (9101-P-12A/B) to the bottom section of the column
as top up water.

4.3.3.4.6 Contact Condenser Cooler Temperature Control
Temperature of the circulating water from the Cooling Water Circulation Pumps
(9102-P-12-A/B) is controlled by cooling the fluid to 54C (maximum temperature) in
summer and not less than 40C (minimum temperature) in winter using three fans: one
fixed speed fan (on/off) control (column 1), and another two VSD controlled fans
working simultaneously (in column 2 & 3).
The contact condenser cooler outlet temperature is measured at outlet of Contact

Condenser Trim Cooler by 91-TT-1301 and received by the temperature controller
91-TIC-1301. The output of this controller sends the control signal to control the three
fans and also to control the bypass control valve 91-TV-1301 of Contact Condenser
Trim Cooler.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 101 of 517
In auto mode, the temperature controller shall follow up the cooler outlet
temperature changes by changing the VSD (9102-EM-12AB/AC/BB/BC) rates to
maintain the temperature set point-1 = (54C + 40C)/2=47C.
The fixed speed fan (9102-EM-12AA/BA) will operate on gap control set point between
the values Tmax=54C & Tmin=42C.
The temperature control valve will be used only in case the cooler outlet temperature
goes to pre-determined temperature T=42C, then the control valve shall open
gradually to maintain the cooler temperature and keep it around the set point-2
(42C).

4.4.2 Process Description and Control
4.4.2.1 Tail Gas Incinerator Process Description
An Incinerator 9101-F-14 is provided to thermally oxidise all possible sulphur

compounds to SO2 in off gas effluents from the Acid Gas Amine Absorber 9103-C-11,
Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12, SRU tail gases and vent gases from the Sulphur
Degassing Pit 9101-T-01/01B. Moreover all BTEX content of off gas effluent is also
destructed.
To ensure complete combustion of these sulphur compounds the Incinerator's

combustion chamber temperature is maintained at a temperature of about 800C by
burning fuel gas supplied with combustion air in the unit's burner.
Combustion air is supplied from 2 x 100% Incinerator Air Blowers (9101-K-12 A/B, One
Operating and One Standby). The Blowers are driven by VFD motors. Each Blower is
provided with an Air Intake Stack with Bird Screen, Sand Filter and Rain Hood.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 104 of 517
Fuel gas to the Incinerator is supplied from the existing Fuel Gas network. A tapping is
taken from the existing fuel gas line 6-6536-FG-101-C12P and fuel gas is supplied to
the Incinerator 9101-F-14 and Reducing Gas Generator 9102-F-11.
The flows of fuel gas and combustion air are each measured by flow and then ratio
controlled to ensure the correct amount of excess air is always maintained in the
Incinerator combustion chamber to allow the oxidation of the sulphur compounds in
the tail and vent gases to take place.
An Oxygen Analyser 91-AE-1051 located in the Incinerator outlet combustion gases

Stack 9101-X-11 monitors the excess O2 in the Incinerator combustion gases.
Adjustments may be made to the fuel gas to air ratio controller to ensure the correct
excess of O2 (3% by Mol) is seen in the stack gases.
A sulphur dioxide analyser AE-1052, located at the Incinerator Stack (9101-X-11),

monitors the Incinerator stack gases for SO2 content. A NOX analyser 91-AE-1053,
located at the Incinerator Stack (9101-X-11), monitors the Incinerator stack gases for
NOX content.
4.4.2.2 Tail Gas Incinerator Process Control
4.4.2.2.1 Incinerator Temperature control (91-TIC-1155)
Normal operating temperature of the Incinerator is 817C; the temperature in the

Incinerator is controlled by modulating the flow of fuel gas and combustion air.
Temperature in the Incinerator is measured by 91-TT-1155 and controlled by 91-TIC-

1155. The output of the controller 91-TIC-1155 is fed to a splitter 91-TY-1155A where
the output is splitted into 0-50% which is fed to 91-TY-1155C for regulating the
combustion air flow and 50-100% which is fed to 91-TY-1155B for regulating the fuel
gas flow.
0-50% output of 91-TIC-1155 is scaled to 0-100% and is reversed in 91-TY-1155C (This is

for regulating the temperature of Incinerator during normal operation by varying the
speed of the air blower). This value is then fed to a high selector function block 91-FY-
1156C. The other input of 91-FY-1156C is received from 91-FY-1155A (This determines
the quantity of combustion air required based on fuel gas flow).
The combustion air flow rate from Air Blowers is measured in the common discharge
line by 91-FT-1156.
91-FIC-1156 receives the PV from 91-FT-1156 and set point (SP) from 91-FY-1156C. The
output (MV) of 91-FIC-1156 is then scaled to 4-20 mA. The scaled current signal is sent
to VSD panel of Duty Air Blower for controlling its speed. The speed of the Air Blower
determines the quantity of combustion air required.
The main fuel gas flowing to the burner is measured by 91-FT-1155 and the PV is sent
to 91-FIC-1155.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 105 of 517
The set point for 91-FIC-1155 is derived from the temperature controller 91-TIC-1155.
i.e. The output (MV) of 50-100% is scaled to 0-100% and is fed as SP through 91-TY-
1155B to 91-FIC-1155.
The ratio set point is manually entered by operator via 91-HIC-1155A. The fuel gas
flow value (PV) of 91-FIC-1155 is multiplied by ratio set point in function block 91-FY-
1155A. The ratio set point gives the correct ratio of air to fuel gas based on a manually
determined composition. The multiplication factor is a manual entry and is based on
the design composition of the feed gas. The output value of 91-FY-1155A is given to
the selector function block 91-FY-1156C.
The actual ratio of combustion air to fuel gas is displayed in function block 91-FY-1155A.
Fuel gas flow control is achieved via 91-FIC-1155 by controlling 91-FV-1155
This reversed output and air/fuel ratio provided via 91-HIC-1155A is allowed to pass
through the high demand selector 91-FY-1156C which provides the set point to
combustion air flow controller 91-FIC-1156. Output of the controller modulates the
combustion air flow by changing the Combustion air fan 9101-K-12A/B VFD set point.
50-100% output of 91-TIC-1155 is scaled to 0-100% in 91-TY-1155B, which provides the

set point to the fuel gas controller 91-FIC-1155 and output of the controller 91-FIC-
1155 commands the fuel gas control valve 91-FV-1155.

4.5.3 Instrument Air Package Description
The new air compressor package consists of the following:
1. Two (2x100%) single base frames mounted Air Compressors (6837-K-02A/B), each
having a capacity of 900 Nm3/hr (dry basis).
2. Each Compressor is supplied with an individual After Cooler.
3. One air compressor discharge drum, (6837-V-10) is provided.
4. Two Instrument air dryer packages, (6837-A-03/04) running at 2X50%, each dryer
capacity is 300 Nm3/hr (dry basis).
5. Pre and After Filters for each dryer.
6. One instrument air receiver (6837-V-11) with storage capacity to provide
instrument air for a period of 20 minutes following a compressor trip.
7. Dew point analyzers are provided for individual dryer package.
The compressors are air-cooled, oil free, rotary screw type and are sized 100% of duty.
Both Compressors operate in Duty/Standby configuration (with automatic changeover
of the standby unit compressor).
The dryer consists of two 50% heater-less desiccant dryers each consisting of two
vessels (one drying, one regenerating), a set of duplex pre and after filters. Each dryer
is 50% of design capacity (Single Compressor supply).
Compressors and Dryers have locally mounted instruments and junction boxes and
operate from the UCP, with DCS and ESD remote monitoring, through TCP/IP.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 110 of 517
Based on air demand only one compressor under normal conditions will be loaded, the
second unit can start but will have load inhibitors to ensure only one unit is loaded.
Each dryer has a sonic nozzle at the discharge header to ensure the protection against
the greater flow.
Each compressor is monitored and controlled by the Package Controller (UCP) which
provides information to the ICSS. There is only a push button station available at each
equipment station in the field (LCP). However this LCP still only communicates with
the UCP which then sends signals to the DCS. All the signals are hardwired to UCP. The
subsystems MCC, ESD and ICSS are hardwired to the UCP and linked also through a
redundant modbus TCP/IP communication link.
Compressor instrumentation and solenoids are all wired to junction boxes, the UCP
system receives an external net air pressure signal and then starts, loads/unloads and
stops the available compressor based on its own selecton routine. The ICSS supervises
the system status via the UCP connected to the junction boxes shown in the Electrical
Service Diagram.
The new Air System will supply instrument and plant air with the following supply
battery limit conditions for both instrument and plant air:
Design Operating
Pressure bar (g) 9.7 7.0
Temperature (C) 85 55/60
The new instrument and plant air headers are connected to the existing NGL-3
instrument and plant air headers respectively through cross over connection lines with
(manual isolation valves) for operation flexibility.
4.5.4 Instrument Air Package Control Description
A. Loading/Unloading
The compressor always starts to run in unloaded condition, up to first 20 seconds

known as the load delay, this is to ensure the oil pressure is stabilised. After the load
delay compressor will load unless either the operator manually selects to unload or
there is no air demand. If there is no air demand the compressor runs unloaded and is
said to be idle.
To load the compressor the solenoid valve 68-XY-1401 shall be energized, similarly to
unload the compressor solenoid valve 68-XY-1401 shall be de-energised and solenoid
valve 68-XY-1403 shall be energised.
When the compressor is in remote mode, loading/unloading of every compressor is

based on the net air pressure signal 68-PT-1311.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 111 of 517
When the compressor is in local mode loading/unloading of every compressor is based

on the compressor O/L pressure signal transmitter 68-PT-1406.
If the air demand is low, i.e. when the pressure transmitter signal is above the load
set point then UCP unloads the compressor and if the air demand is high, i.e. when the
pressure transmitter signal is below the load set point then UCP loads the compressor.
The loading/unloading set pressure in barg is given below:
Compressor Control Loading Unloading Status

Compressor A lead XX XX running
Compressor B lag XX XX standby
Note: XX Loading and Unloading set points will be set at site while commissioning the
Air Compressor.
B. Lead/Lag Control in Remote Mode
Only in Remote-Auto mode the compressors shall follow the Lead, Lag logic. The
purpose of Lead/Lag control is to allow two compressors to operate at once, with one
operating as LEAD and maintaining system pressure, and the other operating as LAG
and loading only as necessary when system pressure drops.
When air demand is lower or equal to the air generation from one compressor, only
the Lead compressor gets loaded. When the air demand increases above the capacity
of one compressor, the lag Compressors gets loaded in sequence as per demand
requirements.
C. Compressor Auto changeover
Compressor auto change over occurs on the 2 following conditions:
1. If the stand-by compressor was selected in remote mode then after 24 hours of
duty compressor usage stand-by compressor will start automatically.
2. Duty compressor failure will start the standby compressor immediately.
If the failed compressor was loaded and the air demand is still required, the unit will
go in to loaded mode straight away after the starting delay (20 seconds).
D. Dry Air Purge
When the compressor is in standby mode, solenoid 68-XY-1407 is activated and this
opens the purge air line allowing a small flow of dry air protecting the compressor
during stand-by, also immediately when the status stand-by is changed to duty,
solenoid 68-XY-1407 is de-energised.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 112 of 517
E. Water Separators Level Control
Inter cooler and after cooler water Separators level is maintained by level indicators
(68-XI-1402 and 68-XI-1406) via opening or closing of valves 68-XY-1402 and 68-XY-1406
respectively.
F. Instrument Air Header Pressure Control
The pressure on the discharge line from the instrument air receiver is monitored by a
transmitter 68-PT-1310; pressure on the discharge line of the plant air header is
controlled by 68-PIC-1310.
Decrease in the instrument pressure signal will tends to close the control valve
68-PCV-1310 in the plant air line.

4.6.2 Effluent and Waste Water Treatment Process Description
Sour water from various sources is collected in the Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07,
which provides over 20 minutes of hold-up for the waste water. The flow of waste
water from TGTU Cooling Water Circulation Pumps 9102-P-12A/B is continuous at a
rate of 8.7 m3/hr. The pressurised drain from Cooling Water Circulation Pumps 9102-P-
12A/B and the flow from Regenerator Reflux Drum Pumps 9103-P-11A/B are
intermittent. The sour water from the Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07 is continuously
pumped under flow control by Waste Water Degasser Pumps (6922-P-08A/B) to the
Sour Water Stripper 6922-C-01 for treatment.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 117 of 517
In the event the Sour Water Treatment System is unavailable due to a process upset,
provision exists for manually routing the Waste Water Degasser liquids directly to the
Observation Sump (6922-X-04).
A balance line between Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07 and Sour Water Stripper
6922-C-01 means that the pressure in the Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07 floats on
the Sour Water Stripper 6922-C-01 operating pressure (i.e. 1.0 barg). A nitrogen supply
line is provided to maintain pressure in the Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07 if it falls
below a certain minimum as liquids are pumped out.
The sour water from Waste Water Degasser 6922-V-07 is filtered in Sour Water Filter
(6922-S-06) to remove particle size of 10 micron e.g. sand, pipe scale and salts and
then preheated in Sour/Stripped Water Exchanger (6922-E-01) before feeding to Sour
Water Stripper. The Sour Water Stripper operates at 1.0 barg and has an upper section
and a lower tray section. The upper section is provided with temperature indication
locally as well as in DCS. A differential pressure transmitter is also provided across
trays 33 to 38 with indication in DCS. The middle section of the column is also
provided with a temperature indication locally as well as in DCS. A differential
pressure transmitter is also provided across trays 1 to 32 with indication in DCS. The
bottom section of the column is provided with temperature and level indications
locally as well as in DCS.
The sour water is stripped by the vapours generated from the Sour Water Stripper
Reboiler 6922-E-04. The Reboiler utilises LP steam to heat the sour water that comes
from the bottom of the Sour Water Stripper to 126C. The condensed steam from the
Reboiler is sent to the LP Condensate system through level control.
Reflux for the column is provided by a pump-around system. Water is taken from
below tray 33 pumped by Stripper Overheads Circulation Pumps (6922-P-11A/B) under
flow control, cooled in Stripper Overheads Cooler (6922-E-03) and then returned to the
top tray.
The stripper overhead acid gases are routed to the TGTU (upstream of
Desuperheater/Contact Condenser, 9102-C-11). In the event of high column pressure,
excess gases are diverted to LP Acid Gas Flare.
The stripped water from the stripper is pumped under level control cascaded to a flow
controller via Stripper Water Pump (6922-P-10A/B) to the Sour/Stripped Water
Exchanger (6922-E-01) to preheat the feed to the stripper. The water is then routed to
the Stripped Water Cooler (6922-E-02) where it is cooled to 55C before discharge to
the Observation Sump.
An analyser is provided in the line to the Observation Sump to monitor the sulphide
content of the stripped water stream.

4.7.2 Fuel Gas System Process Description
4.7.2.1 Introduction
LP Fuel Gas is required for New Steam Generation Boiler Packages 6848-A-02A/B/C.
4.7.2.2 Process Description
The new Fuel Gas requirements under the SRU upgrade project will be secured from
two separate sources as follows.
Source 1 Supply
The main normal LP Fuel Gas supply for the new MP Steam Boiler Package (6848-A-
02A/B/C) is supplied from the first stage suction of the existing Booster Compressors
(6701-K-10/20/30) in NGL-3. In addition, two back up sources are provided; the first is
the fuel gas from 6103-K-01A/B with a second backup from existing 30 line (T-10).
The new fuel gas supply system will consist of a letdown station, Fuel Gas KO Drum
(6236-V-05) and a supply header to the steam boilers. The source pressure from the
take-off point will be let down to 7 barg through the pressure control valve 62-PV-
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 124 of 517
1301A before entering the LP Fuel Gas KO Drum. The source pressure of the fuel gas
from 6103-K-01 A/B is 20 barg whilst that of feed gas from the 30 line is 45 barg. The
former is let down to 7 barg through the pressure control valve 62-PV-1301B and the
latter via 62-PV-1302.
Source 2 Supply
LP fuel gas for SRU upgrade new users (Reducing Gas Generator 9102-F-11 and new
Incinerator, 9101-F-14) will be sourced from the existing LP fuel gas header at NGL-3
as there is sufficient spare capacity available for there.
4.7.2.3 Operating and Control System
The fuel gas for the LP fuel gas system is taken from the first stage suction of the Lean
Gas Booster Compressors (6701-K-10/20/30), through 62-PV-1301A via pressure
controller 62-PIC-1301 located in the top of the LP Fuel Gas KO Drum (6236-V-05).
In the event of loss of lean gas supply from the Booster Compressors, the pressure
controller 62-PIC-1301 signal is routed to 62-PV-1301B via soft valve selector 62-PY-
1301. In addition if there is an emergency shutdown of NGL Extraction unit (from
where fuel gas is ultimately supplied) valve selector 62-PY-1301 is overridden and the
signal from 62-PIC-1301 is automatically routed to 62-PV-1301B. This allows back up
fuel gas taken from 6103-K-01A/B.
The takeoff for the second back up supply is from 30" existing line (T-10) routed
through 62-PV-1302 via pressure controller 62-PIC-1302.
A fast acting pressure control valve 62-PV-1303 controlled by pressure controller

62-PC-1303 is provided on the overhead line from 6236-V-05 to route fuel gas to LP
flare in the event the pressure in the KO drum continues to increase beyond the
normal operating range.

4.8.2 Sea Cooling Water System Process Description
Sea Cooling Water system is required to supply cooling water for the coolers in the SRU
upgrade facilities. A part of sea cooling water is also supplied to existing sea water
supply system. The Sea Cooling Water system includes two Sea Cooling Water Pumps
(6932-P-04A/B, one operating and one standby), one Electro Chlorination Package
(6932-A-05), one Biocide Injection Package (6932-A-06) and one Scale Inhibitor
Injection Package (6932-A-07).
Two Sea cooling Water Pumps 6932-P-04A/B are installed on a new jetty and take
suction from the sea. The pumps are vertical-shaft, constant speed centrifugal pumps
and are electric motor driven. The sea water cooling pumps have a design capacity of
1600 m3/h (each) at a discharge pressure of 5.0 barg.
To meet the design flow requirements, one pump will be normally running, whilst the
other is on standby. Each pump is capable of supplying a normal flow of 1200 m3/h to
the users for SRU upgrade.
The water enters the pump body through a suction pipe (stilling tube) shaped to
reduce turbulence. A coarse mesh bar suction screen is installed at each pump to
prevent seaweed and other debris from entering the sea water system.
From the common discharge of seawater cooling pumps, seawater stream flows via a
new dedicated 24 main supply header to the new filtration package unit (6932-S-
02A/B). The self cleaning rotary type Sea Water Filters (one in operation and one on
standby) are capable of removing particle sizes greater than 1000 microns from
seawater and each unit is designed for a flow of 1600 m3/h. The filtered water from
filters is routed to the heat exchangers located in AGEU/TGTU another users.
A small portion of the main seawater (cooling water) flow is diverted downstream of
the filters to provide seawater supply for the Electro Chlorination Unit (6932-A-05).
The Electro Chlorination unit generates sodium hypochlorite solution. The sodium
hypochlorite solution is injected into Sea Cooling Water system. There is one
dedicated new Electro Chlorination Unit.
In addition, a dedicated Biocide Injection Unit (6932-A-06) for effective control of

growth of marine organisms and a dedicated Scale Inhibitor Injection Unit (6932-A-07)
to prevent formation of mineral scales in the Sea Cooling Water system are also
provided for existing as well as new sea cooling water systems.
The new cooling water system is a once through system and the sea water returned
from the SRU upgrade facilities is discharged into existing Seawater Observation Sump
(6932-X-01) which has a retention capacity of 60 m3. From the sump the seawater
overflows to the sea.
To prevent fouling the temperature of cooling water from each exchanger outlet
should not exceed the maximum allowable temperature limit of 45C.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 127 of 517
A tie in to the existing NGL-3/4 seawater supply system is also provided to supply
seawater from the new seawater pumps.
4.8.3 Sea Cooling Water Control
4.8.3.1 Sea Cooling Water Pumps (6932-P-04A/B)
The cooling water pumps can be started and stopped from the DCS by means of one of
the hand switches 69-HS-1311/1322. The running status indication of the pumps is
provided in the DCS. In addition, pump discharge low pressure alarms with indication
in the DCS (69-PIA-1301/1303), a pressure transmitter (69-PT-1301/1303), and a
sample connection (69-SC-013/014) are provided for each pump.
The chlorination, biocide and scale inhibitor lines to the pumps are provided with flow
indicators to monitor injection of these chemicals into the pump suction.
The cooling water flow through each heat exchanger may be manually regulated by
butterfly valves located upstream/downstream of the exchanger. The valves are
within view of the respective process side temperature indicator locations.
For operational flexibility a 18 crossover connection between sea cooling water pump
discharge line 24-6932-SW-259-A7A2 is provided to supply sea cooling water to NGL-
3/4. The crossover line contains two 18 butterfly valves which are normally closed.
4.8.3.2 Filtration System
The Sea Cooling Water Filtration system comprises of two self cleaning rotary type
Cooling Water Filters (6932-S-02A/B), one operating and one standby. Each filter is
designed for a flow of 1600 m3/hr and is capable of removing particle sizes greater
than 1000 microns. In addition each filter is equipped with an automatic back flushing
mechanism which operates on an intermittent basis when filter cleaning is required.
Across a cleaner seawater filter the normal pressure drop is 0.2 bar. During normal
operation the filter will become dirty over a period of time and the pressure drop
across it will increase. To ensure periodic cleaning of the online filter, a timer facility
within the filter control panel automatically initiates the cleaning cycle after a preset
interval and terminates it after a preset duration. The cleaning sequence involves the
start of the cleaning gear and opening of the drain ON/OFF valve 69-XV-1340/1341.
The former causes the debris trapped across the filter mesh to be loosened as the
mesh rotates against static scrapers whilst the latter allows the loosened debris to be
discharged back to the sea. The cleaning cycle lasts for approximately 90 seconds
after which the drain ON/OFF valve closes and the cleaning gear stops by
de-energising the contactor.
In addition to the timer, a differential pressure transmitter (PDT-1309/1310) can also

initiate the cleaning cycle when the filter pressure drop reaches a specified value
(0.5 barg). After the completion of the cleaning sequence the timer is also reset.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 128 of 517
The cleaning sequence may be stopped via hand switch (69-HS-1309/1310).
In the event the cleaning gear is stuck, a common alarm 69-XA-1309/1310 is initiated.
In addition a high high pressure drop alarm (69-PDAH-1309/1310) is also provided to
alert the operator in the event of problems with the cleaning of the filter.
The downstream isolation valves of both (operating and standby) filters are kept open
at all the times during normal operation. The inlet isolation valve (MOV-1303/1304) of
the standby filter is kept in closed position during normal operation.
The selection of the operating filter must be made from the DCS via hand switches
(HS-1309/1310).
4.8.3.3 Sea Cooling Water Outlet Pressure Control
Sea Cooling Water Pumps (6932-P-04A/B) outlet is routed to Sea Cooling Water Filters
(6932-S-02A/B) and the outlet pressure is maintained by the pressure controller
69-PIC-1306 by monitoring the pressure through 69-PT-1306 located in the common
discharge of the Sea Cooling Water Pumps. The pressure is maintained by regulating
the pressure control valve 69-PV-1306 in the cooling water drain line connected to the
sea.
69-PIC-1306 opens the drain line control valve 69-PV-1306 on rising pressure in the
outlet of Sea Cooling Water Pumps common discharge.

4.9.2 Electro Chlorination System Description
During normal operation the Electro Chlorination Unit supplies Sodium Hypochlorite
that is injected into the suction lines of the Seawater Supply Pumps (6932-P-04A/B).
The hypochlorite controls the growth of marine organisms in sea cooling water system.
A small portion of the main sea cooling water flow to the new units of SRU is diverted
downstream of the filters 6932-S-02A/B and this provides the sea water supply for the
Electro Chlorination Unit 6932-A-05.
The required flow of sea water is fed to each electrolyser module designed to produce
10kg/h of active chlorine. Direct current is passed through the sea water producing a
sodium hypochlorite solution and hydrogen. The amount of active chlorine (sodium
hypochlorite) produced, is directly proportional to the current passed through the
cells. Hence, sea water is not normally varied. Any required reduction in active
chlorine demand can be achieved by manually adjusting electrical current to the
electrolysers at the local control panel.
4.9.2.1 Biocide and Scale Inhibitor Injection Packages
During normal operation, the biocide from the Biocide Injection Package is directly
injected into the hypochlorite injection line from Electro Chlorination Package just
before the injection point into the Sea Cooling Water Pump Suction of existing
(P-3001A/B/C & P-1618AR/BR/CR) and new 6932-P-04A/B sea cooling water systems.
The injection is to be carried out at a concentration of 6.6 ppm three times daily for a
15 minute period. The biocide filling into the Biocide Storage Tank inside the package
is a manual operation using flexible hose.
During normal operation the scale inhibitor from the Scale Inhibitor Injection Package
is injected into Sea Cooling Water Pump suction of existing (P-3001A/B/C &
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 132 of 517
P-1618AR/BR/CR) and new 6932-P-04A/B Sea Cooling Water Pumps. The injection is
carried out continuously at a concentration of 1.5 ppm. The scale inhibitor filling into
the storage tank inside the package is a manual operation using flexible hose.
4.9.3 Electro chlorination Package Control
4.9.3.1 Changeover of Auto Back Wash Filter
Sea water is supplied to the skid at a rate of 14 m3/hr. 69-PCV-1463 maintains the
system sea water pressure at 3.5 bar g from the inlet pressure of 5 bar (g).
Sea water is filtered to 500 microns to supply to the electrolyser. An auto back wash
filter (6932-S03A/6932-S-03B) is installed which operates on a duty/stand by basis,
During the initiation of changeover/backwash the actuated discharge valve (69-XV-

1453/69-XV-1456) of duty filter will close, the actuated backwash valve of duty filter
(69-XV-1452/69-XV-1455) will open and the actuated discharge valve (69-XV-1453/
69-XV-1456) of stand by filter will open which ensures the filter changeover was
happened.
Following are the causes for filter change over to occur:
Sl. # Tag No. Service Limit Unit Value

1. 69-PDI-1452 DP across 6932-S-03A High-high barg 0.2
2. 69-PDI-1453 DP across 6932-S-03B High-high barg 0.2

II. 69-FI-1452 Inlet flow to 6932-G01B Low-low m /hr 10
III. 69-PI-1455 Filter common discharge High-high barg 4.5
Also if the temperature difference between electrolyser upstream temperature (69-

TT-1451) and downstream of the individual electrolyser temperature (69-TT-1452/69-
TT-1453) is 5C then controlled shutdown is initiated and the standby electrolyser unit
is started.

4.10.2 NGL-4 Sea Water Filters S-8840A/B Description
Two Sea Water Filters S-8840A/B are installed in the existing sea water from cooling
water supply line 8-88-32-WR-0066-001W.
The filter consists of a pressure containment body with inlet, outlet, drain/backwash
outlet, PSV and vent connections. Filter Basket has been sized for the design flow
conditions. Access to the filter basket is via the bolted cover at the top of the
assembly. Sealing of the cover to the body is via a spiral wound gasket and stud bolts.
A simple devit arm is provided to allow removal and support of the cover during
maintenance operations.
Across a clean Seawater Filter S-8840A/B the normal pressure drop is 0.2 bar. During
normal operation the filter will become dirty over a period of time and the pressure
drop across it will increase. The differential pressure transmitter (88-PDT-801) raises
an alarm when the filter pressure drop reaches a specified value (0.4 bar). This means
the filter needs cleaning and the clean filter is brought on line.

4.11.2 Demineralised Water System Process Description
Demineralised Water Package Unit 6834-A-07 (one operating, one standby/

regenerating), is designed to produce flow of 7 m3/h of demineralised water. The
Demineralised water is supplied to the new heating system and connectivity to the
existing DMW header is also provided to allow operation flexibility.
Demineralised water unit will provide DMW to the following users:

Make up water to Steam Condensate Flash Drum (6834-V-05)
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 139 of 517

Make up water to Cooling Water Circulation Pump (9102-P-12A/B)
Start-up water to Stripped Overhead Circulation Pump (9102-P-11A/B)
Make up water to Amine Regenerator Reflux Drum (9103-V-12)
Existing DMW network system (for operational flexibility, normally no flow)
4.11.2.1 Demineralised Water Package
The Demineralised Water Package is based on ion exchange technology (similar to the
existing DMW package) and consists of two identical trains.
The DMW package operates continuously and automatically and thus requires minimum
intervention. The package includes the necessary control and safety devices. The
Demineralised Water from the DMW package is routed to Demineralised Water Storage
Tank (6834-T-08). Capacity of Demineralised Water Storage Tank is 83 m3.
Fresh water is sent to the new users (DMW package & utility) continuously by means of
the Drinking Water Feed Pumps (6834-P-23A/B, one operating, one standby) each
having a design capacity of 10 m3/h. The duty/standby is selected via a selector switch
in the DCS. The pumps are manually started and stopped through hand switches 68-HS-
1305/1306 and operated continuously.
A minimum continuous flow recycle line with a restriction orifice (6834-RO-1303)

ensures that there is always a minimum flow through the pump.
Low low level alarms (68-LALL-006/007, via existing manual selector 68-HS-008) will
shutdown the operating pump in the event of low-low level in Drinking Water Storage
Tanks.
The control ensures a safe and continuous operation and is summarized below:
A. Flow Totaliser
A flow totaliser placed in the main fresh inlet line to each ion exchange train sums the
total water passing through the DMW unit. In normal operation, the end of a treatment
cycle is determined on a volumetric basis by the totaliser which generates the order to
switch from the online train to standby train. Following the switch over the
regeneration sequence is commenced for the offline train.
B. Conductivity Meter
If high conductivity is reached before the end of the volumetric cycle, then the
respective conductivity meter initiates the same automatic switch over order as
generated by the volumetric cycle. If, in spite of this order, the conductivity continues
to increase, then a separate high-high conductivity meter initiates a complete
shutdown.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 140 of 517
C. Differential Pressure
A differential pressure transmitter switch installed across the ion exchangers, also
initiates the same switchover as the above volumetric cycle.
D. Regeneration
Demineralised water is used as service water for regeneration. From the storage tank
(6834-T-08), regeneration DMW is delivered by means of the Regeneration Water
Pumps 6834-P-36A/B.
A solution of Caustic Soda is used to regenerate the anion resins. Concentrated Caustic
Soda is stored in a storage tank. Before injection into the exchanger bed, the caustic
soda is diluted by means of an in-line mixer.
A solution of Hydrochloric Acid is used for cation resin regeneration. It is stored in the
HCl storage Tank. The required dilution before injection into the exchanger bed is
made by means of an in-line mixer.
The regeneration effluents are collected in the concrete Neutralisation Pit where they
are neutralised before being pumped out for disposal to effluent treatment plant.
The pit is fitted with a pH-meter controller which controls acid dosing or caustic
dosing to achieve neutralisation. Neutralisation Pit Pump re-circulates the effluent
mixture for homogenisation. Plant air diffusion is also provided to enhance mixing.
E. DMW Storage Tank (6834-T-08)
The DMW package outlet line includes an automatic ON/OFF valve which is actuated
by means of a signal coming from low/high level signal (68-LT-1305) on the DMW
Storage Tank (6834-T-08).
De-mineralized water from the DMW storage tank is directed, at a pressure and
temperature of 3.7 barg and ambient temperature respectively by means of DMW Feed
Pumps (6834-P-24A/B) to condensate flash drum (6834-V-05).
The DMW storage tank is equipped with level alarms, High-High/Low-Low liquid level
(LAHH-1306/LALL-1307). The former generates a High-High liquid level alarm in the
control room, whilst the latter initiates Low low liquid level trip which shuts down the
Regeneration Pumps 6834-P-36A/B in the DMW Package and DMW Feed Pumps.
F. Demineralised Water Feed Pumps (6834-P-24A/B)
Centrifugal type, DMW feed pumps (one running, one standby) are used to supply
demineralised water at 3.7 barg pressure and ambient temperature, from DMW storage
tank.
Each pump is designed for a flow of 12 m3/hr based in heating system start-up (Filling
inventory vessels such as condensates flash drum, De-aerator and Boilers in one shift).
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 141 of 517
A minimum flow recycle line with a restriction orifice (6834-RO-1301) ensures that
there is always a minimum flow through the pump.
These pumps can be stopped automatically, by the low low alarm (68-LALL-1307) or
manually, from the central control room using hand switch (68-HS-1307B/1308B) or
local panel (68-HS-1307A/1308A).
In the event of non ESD trip of operating pump, standby pumps will start
automatically.

4.12.2 Boiler Feed Water De-aerator Description
4.12.2.1 Steam Condensate Flash Drum (6834-V-05)
The LP steam condensates mixtures are collected in the Steam Condensate Flash
Drum. The purpose of this vessel is to stabilise the steam condensate entering the
drum and to cool down the inventory to 102C to prevent cavitations in De-aerator
Feed Pumps.
The Flash Drum receives fluids from two phase steam condensates from condensate
distribution header and DMW from DMW Feed Pumps 6834-P-24A/B.
The operating pressure in the Flash Drum is 0.1 barg. During normal operation,
minimum or no flow across 68-RO-1302 is expected and which is sized for steam
condensate cooler failure case. Pressure relief valves (68-RV-1091A/B, one operating
and one spare) protect the drum against overpressure. The RVs relieve to the
atmosphere and are set at 3.5 barg.
4.12.2.2 Steam Condensate Cooler (6834-E-02)
The relatively cool (43C) DMW feed make-up entering the mixing compartment of the
Steam Condensate Flash Drum picks up heat from the incoming hot condensate
stream. To maintain its liquid state, the demineralised water/condensate mixture in
the drum is continuously circulated through the Seam Condensate Cooler by the
De-aerator Feed Pump 6834-P-20A/B. The temperature is controlled at 102C by using
temperature control valve (68-TV-1301) prior to forwarding the water to the Boiler
Feed Water De-aerator unit for further treatment.
4.12.2.3 De aerator Feed Pumps (6834-P-20A/B)
Centrifugal type, De-aerator Feed Pumps (6834-P-20A/B, one running, one standby)
has a dual purpose: first to recycle approximately 49.8 % of the total normal discharge
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 147 of 517
flow back to the flash drum via the Steam Condensate Cooler. The second is to feed
the balance of the pump discharge flow to the Boiler Feed De-aerator package
(6834-A-08) for further treatment.
These pumps will be stopped automatically, by the low-low alarm (68-LALL-1309) or

manually, from the central control room using hand switch (68-HS-1309/1310) or local
panel (68-HS-1309).
In the event of a non ESD trip of the operating pump, the standby pump will start
automatically.
4.12.2.4 Boiler Feed Water De-aerator Package (6834-A-08)
The boiler feed water stream enters the BFW De-aerator Package (6834-A-08) at the
top of the De-aerator column. It is contacted counter-currently with stripping steam,
which heats and scrubs the incoming feed, forcing the water to give up its CO2 and
most of its O2 content. Oxygen Scavenger is added to the water in the hold up section
of the De-aerator to further reduce the O2 content.
The De-aerator pressure is controlled at 0.2 barg by means of a pressure controller

(68-PIC-1304) which acts on pressure control valve (68-PV-1304) located in the LP
stripping steam line.
The De-aerator is protected from over pressure by a set of pressure relief valves
(68-PSV-1337A/B), set at 3.5 barg. The De-aerator package is designed for FV. The
liquid level in the De-aerator drum is maintained by 68-LIC-1302 through 68-LV-1302 in
the BFW feed inlet line.
The Boiler Feed Water pumps (6834-P-22 A/B/C) take suction from a common
manifold. The discharge pressure of Boiler Feed Water Pump is 20.8 barg. The
minimum flow is controlled by 68-FIC-1305 using 68-FV-1305 and discharged liquid
back to De-aerator drum.
4.12.2.5 Chemical Injection Package (6834-A-09)
The BFW Chemical injection Package is used to inject Boiler Feed water with O2
Scavenger and a Complex Product. The Complex Product is administrated to increase
pH value of the boiler feed water from 7 to between 9.0 and 10.5 to protect the
internal walls of the steam drums against corrosion and scaling. The amount of
complex product solution is proportional to the boiler feed water flow and is injected
at the discharge of Boiler Feed Water pumps.
The package includes for each chemical, a set of Chemical Storage Tank, Chemical
Injections Pumps and Chemical Unloading Pump.
Chemical Injection Pumps are of reciprocating, positive displacement, automatic

metering type i.e. the amount of chemical injected is proportional to the boiler feed
water flow as measured by the dedicated chemical pumps speed variation controllers.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 148 of 517
There are two sets of Chemical Injection Pumps (each comprising two electric motor
driven gear pumps) provided for each chemical as follows;
Two Oxygen Scavenger Injection Pumps 6834-P-39A/B for De-aerator (6834-A-

08) treatment
Two Complex Product Injection Pumps 6834-P-41A/B for Steam Boiler (6834-A-
02A/B/C) Feed Water treatment
4.12.2.6 Boiler Feed Water Pumps (6834-P-22A/B/C)
Centrifugal type Boiler Feed Water Pumps (two running, one standby) have dual
purpose; the first is to supply Boiler Feed Water at 18.5 barg and 105C to Steam
Generation Package and the second is to supply BFW to the TGTU. A small stream is
also connected to Sour Water Stripper Reboiler 6922-E-04 for desuperheating purpose.
The pumps are designed to supply a normal continuous flow of oxygen free and pH
controlled Boiler Feed Water to the Steam Boilers 6834-A-02 A/B/C and Reactor
Effluent Cooler (9102-E-11).
The minimum flow is controlled by flow controller 68-FIC-1305 by acting on flow

control valve 68-FV-1305 which returns part of the pump discharge flow back to the
Deaerator.
In the event of a non ESD trip of the operating pump, the standby pump will start
automatically.
4.12.3 Boiler Feed Water Deaerator Control Description
4.12.3.1 Steam Condensate Flash Drum Level Control
Level in the Steam Condensate Flash Drum 6834-V-05 is maintained by 68-LIC-1301 by

4.13.2 Steam Generation Package Process Description
Auxiliary Steam Boiler Package is essentially constituted by: Three water tube
Clajtub type saturated steam boilers.
4.13.2.1 Steam Generation Package 6848-A-02A
The main purpose of Steam Generation Package 6848-A-02A is to generate steam and
supply steam to the Customer steam network grid at the required pressure and
temperature.
4.13.2.1.1 Water/Steam Circuit
The Water/Steam circuit of the Steam Generator is realised in the following way:
Boiler Feed Water enters into the external Economiser (6848-E-01A), which is a
heat exchanger (water/flue gas) constituted by finned tubes. In this section, the
feed water temperature is increased by absorption of the flue gas thermal heat.
When Sour fuel gas is used, the Boiler Feed Water is first sent to a preheating
water circuit installed inside the water drum, before entering the Economiser
(6848-E-01A). This preheating circuit prevents acid condensation inside the flue
gas system (including the Economiser [6848-E-01A] outer surface) by keeping the
temperature of the flue gas above the dew point of the acid gas.
From the Economiser (6848-E-01A) outlet, the feed water enters into steam drum
6848-V-02A.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 155 of 517
Boiler functions on the basis of steam/water natural circulation, with

evaporating rising circuits formed by the hottest tubes of boiler. Remaining tubes
act as down comers, which feed the rising circuits. All the evaporating tubes are
(except, where indicated in the boiler pressure parts drawings) expanded on both
steam drum and water drum.
In the boiler evaporating tubes, a mixture of saturated water & steam is
produced. Then the saturated steam is separated from the water droplets in the
Steam Drum 6848-V-02A Separators.
The saturated steam from the steam drum is then sent to a temperature and
pressure controlling section;
Pressure of the saturated steam is controlled by the Pressure Control Valve 68-PV-
1524 which gets the input from the Pressure Indicator Controller 68-PIC-1819. A
pressure transmitter 68-PT-1819 senses the pressure in the steam header and
provides the input to the 68-PIC-1819.
The temperature of the saturated steam is controlled by the Desuperheater (6848-
X-03A). Boiler Feed Water from the Boiler Feed Water Pumps 6834-P-22A/B/C
discharge is injected into the Desuperheater 6848-X-03A. The flow of the Boiler
Feed Water is controlled by a Temperature control valve 68-TV-1522. The
temperature control valve gets the temperature input from 68-TIC-1522 which in
turn gets the input from the Temperature Transmitter 68-TT-1522 which measures
the temperature of the saturated steam.
The steam from the Desuperheater 6848-X-03A is then routed to the Main LP
steam header.
4.13.2.1.2 Air/Flue Gas Circuit
The air/flue gas ducts of each of the three steam generator is arranged in the
following way:
Combustion air is taken from the atmosphere by means of a Forced Draft Fan
(6848-K02A), driven by an electric motor (6848-KM-02A). At the suction the
combustion air passes through a Grid Filter 6848-S-03A, Sand Filter (6848-S-02A)
and vertical air Silencer (6848-X-06A) and then a goose type vertical duct designed
to have multiple stage inertial filtration of the entering combustion air. The inlet
Sand Filter 6848-S-02A does not need any kind of maintenance or cleaning (self
discharging type), goose neck type duct is advisable to be inspected through its
lower manhole at least once in 6 months
Downstream of the Silencer 6848-X-06A, the air passes through the modulating
inlet control damper (68-FV-1626) (pneumatically actuated); downstream of the
Forced Draft Fan 6848-K-02A, the combustion air passes through a duct that
delivers air to the wind-box
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 156 of 517
Combustion air measuring device 68-FE-1526 (AIR-FOIL type) is installed

downstream of the Forced Draft Fan 6848-K-02A
In the wind box the air is evenly distributed to the burner in order to optimise the
combustion
Once the combustion takes place in the burner, the high temperature flue gases
pass through the boiler furnace, enclosed by water cooled tubes. The water tubes
assure a perfect tightness for the flue gases. At the end of combustion chamber,
the flue gases turn to 180 entering through the evaporating convective section.
The convective section is located on the right side of the furnace. At boiler outlet,
the flue gases go through a connection duct and then pass through the external
Economiser 6848-E-01A, where the flue gas temperature decreases by means of a
heat transfer to Boiler Feed Water
Downstream of the Economiser 6848-E-01A, the flue gases pass through flue gas
duct that connects the Economiser 6848-E-01A to the stack
Then the flue gases are discharged through the stack into the atmosphere
Air/flue gas circuit is provided also with a recirculation flue gas duct, that re
circulates flue gas from Economiser outlet to AIR FOIL 68-FE-1526 and
subsequently to burner wind-box inlet. The flue gas recirculation fan (FGRF)
6848-K-03A is installed in the Flue Gas Recirculation duct

The Steam Generator is provided with its own Local Panel (LP) connected to the Boiler
Control Panel.
Boiler control system (BCS) is responsible for the continuous control of the boilers and
all the below mentioned controls are implemented in BCS (PLC).
4.13.3.1 Boiler Level Control
The boiler level control is performed with single or three elements philosophy.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 166 of 517
If the steam flow (68-FT-1524) is greater than the settable threshold then the boiler
level control is allowed to work in three element controls.
If the steam flow (68-FT-1524) is less than the settable threshold then the boiler level
control is allowed to work in single element behaviour.
But there is also a provision to select three element controls at any time.
Single Element Control
When the single element philosophy is active the Inverse acting level controller 68-LIC-
1522 regulates the feed water flow control valve 68-LV-1522 to maintain the boiler
level.
The boiler drum level is measured by 68-LIT-1522 and controlled by 68-LIC-1522; set
point is set locally and 0-100% output of 68-LIC-1522 directly controls the level control
valve 68-LV-1522.
Three Element Control
Three elements used in this controls are Feed water flow (68-FT-1522), boiler level
(68-LT-1522) and steam flow (68-FT-1524).
When the three element philosophy is active the Inverse acting feed water flow
controller 68-FIC-1522 regulates the feed water flow control valve 68-LV-1522 to
maintain the boiler drum level.
The main compensated steam flow 68-FT-1524 is applied to the output of the level
controller 68-LIC-1522 to adjust the set point to the feed water control 68-FIC-1522
proportional to varying steam demands.
0-100% output of 68-FIC-1522 directly commands the level control valve 68-LV-1522.

4.13.3.3 Boiler Steam Pressure Control
The Steam Drum 6848-V-02A pressure is maintained by inverse acting pressure

controller 68-PIC-1523A which determines the burner load to maintain the drum
pressure.
Boiler drum steam pressure is measured by 68-PT-1523 which is fed as a Process

variable to 68-PIC-1523A and the set point is set by operator on the HMI. 0-100% CV of
the controller 68-PIC-1523A is the power that burner should produce to maintain the
steam pressure to the set point value. The required power is expressed as
MWreq=CV*Pmax [MW]
Where
Pmaxmaximum power that can be produced with the burner lighted at the maximum
load (set by the supplier).

4.13.3.4 Fuel Gas Flow Control
Fuel gas flow to produce the required power MWreq is determined by the Inverse
acting flow controller 68-FIC-1525.
Fuel gas flow is measured by the transmitter 68-FT-1525A and controlled by 68-FIC-
1525.
Set point is the required FG flow, which is calculated from the formula
QNG REQ =min {3.6 *106 * MWREQ/HVFG, QFG STOICH} [kg/h],
Where
HVFG [kJ/kg] - Fuel gas heat value
QFG STOICH - stoichiometric fuel gas flow required for actual combustion air flow.
MWREQ- Required power for the burner is calculated from steam pressure controller
68-PIC-1523A.

Combustion air flow is measured from the transmitter 68-FT-1526A and controlled by
68-FIC-1526; the set point is determined by the formula
QAIR REQ = (QFG * STOICH) [kg/h],
Where
QFG =max {QFG req, QFG meas} [kg/h],
STOICH [KG/KG]-Air/FG stoichiometric ratio.
QFG req is calculated from the fuel gas controller set point 68-FIC-1525 and QFG mean
value is taken from the fuel gas flow transmitter 68-FIT-1525.
O2 correction calculated from 68-AIC-1522 is also applied for adjusting airflow set
point.
Output (0-100%) of 68-FIC-1526B directly commands the air control damper

68-FV-1526.

Oxygen concentration in the stack flue gas is maintained by the Inverse acting oxygen
controller 68-AIC-1522 which determines the increase/decrease factor of the excess
air which is used in the set point determination of 68- FIC-1526B (combustion air flow).
Set point is determined by the expected oxygen for the required load MW REQ and is
obtained by linear interpolation on the oxygen curve (provided by BONO).
Output (0-100%) of 68-AIC-1522 is scaled to the range 1.3 0.7 which is the correction
factor applied to the air excess in the calculation of the combustion air flow set point
(68-FIC-1526B).

4.13.3.9 Header Steam Pressure Control
The three boilers supplied by BONO are connected via an Ethernet link and exchange
the data themselves to co-operate on MASTER/SLAVE logic to maintain the desired
pressure in the steam header. As per design only two boilers can feed the steam to the
header continuously.
Each boiler generates a signal named consent to modulation for header PIC and this
signal is set when the following conditions are verified:
Burner is lighted
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 174 of 517

The boiler pressure has reached the opening threshold for the 68-MOV-1522
At least one of the other two boiler control systems has not set the signal
consent to modulation for header PIC.
Header steam pressure direct acting controller 68-PIC-1819 purpose is to maintain the
steam header pressure and management is performed by the control system of the
MASTER boiler (first boiler which starts to feed the header through its 68-MOV-1522).
Steam header pressure is measured by 68-PIT-1819 and controlled by 68-PIC-1819, set

point is provided by the operator on the HMI of the MASTER boiler.
Output of the controller (0-100%) pass through the split range function 68-PY-1819,
where the two outputs of the split range function commands directly the header
pressure control valve 68-PV-1524 of the MASTER, SLAVE boilers (second boiler
which starts to feed the header through its 68-MOV-1522 is known as slave boiler) and
the commands of 68-PV-1523 to the third boiler is forced to 0%.

4.14.4.3 Complex Product Injection Process control Description
The complex product is injected to the boiler feed water going to the steam
generation package and to the boiler feed water going to TGTU.
The control is achieved by maintaining the ratio between the total Boiler Feed Water
flow and Complex Product flow.
The Boiler Feed Water flow rate to Steam Generation Boiler A/B/C is measured by 68-
FT 1522, 68-FT-1622, 68-FT-1722 respectively and 68-FT-1304 measures the boiler feed
water flow rate to TGTU.
The Complex Product Pumps (6834-P-41A/B) common discharge flow rate is measured
by 68-FT-1311.
Total summation of all the above BFW flow is summated in the calculation block
68-FY-1304 and multiplied with the fixed ratio X (X=complex product/total BFW) in the
multiplication block 68-FFY-1311. The output from 68-FFY-1311 is fed as a set point to
the MASTER complex product flow controller 68-FIC-1311.
The complex product pumps 6834-P-41A/B stroke length (0-15 mm) is measured by the
stroke indicators 68-ZI-1303/1304 and the strokes are controlled by the position
controllers 68-ZIC-1303, 68-ZIC-1304.
Complex product flow controller 68-FIC-1311 is cascaded with the position controllers
68-ZIC-1303 and 68-ZIC-1304 and provides set point to the position controllers.

section. The same procedure is applicable for other unit (6837-K-02B).
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 204 of 517
Instrument air compressor can be started in two modes.
I. Local Mode
In local mode, the start/stop of the compressor is done from the local control station
(LCS). For operating the Compressor in local mode, the selectors switch 68-HS-1403 in
Local Control Station to be selected to local position. The loading/unloading is done by
the operator using the loading/unloading switch 68-HS-1402 in the LCS. During Local
mode loading and unloading of the compressor is based on the compressor outlet
pressure transmitter signal 68-PT-1406. Local mode is used for service or maintenance
purposes.
II. Remote Mode
Remote-Auto and Remote-Manual modes are possible under remote mode of operation.
In Remote mode, start and stop of the individual compressors are initiated from
UCP/DCS operating stations. In Remote-Auto mode, the UCP sequence control has
total control over selection, start & stop and pressure control of both the compressors.
All local controls are disabled in this mode except emergency stop from field.
In Remote mode, the loading/unloading of compressors is based on the air receiver

pressure transmitter signal 68-PT-1311.

5.15 STEAM GENERATION PACKAGE START-UP
5.15.1 Checks for Start-up
First of all it is necessary to be sure that all lines up to boiler package battery
limit (including water, steam, compressed air, fuel gas etc.) have been completely
and properly cleaned to eliminate from internal side of lines, any possible
presence of impurities/oxides, debris, rust and scales. This is very important for
the first time start-up of the Boiler subsequent to a long shutdown and there is a
reasonable doubt about possible accumulation of deposits on line internal parts
In the case boiler start-up is subsequent to a long boiler shutdown (for instance:
for maintenance, inspection or repair purposes), the Operator visual inspection
should be extended to internal and external parts and it should cover at least the
following essential points:
Check of cleaning of all involved piping by means of appropriate fluids so that
piping is internally free from scale and impurities. Operator must always take
care to achieve an ideal clean tube condition, in order to avoid any obstruction
to the instruments, valves and fittings that could seriously jeopardize the
boiler/plant functionality and operation. This visual inspection should be
extended till to check the drains and to see if the fluid is discharged without
any obstruction and free from scales or other impurities;
Water gauge passages and other boiler mounting openings are clear
Manhole doors are in position with good gaskets and satisfactorily tightened
All Boiler and Economizer valves and fittings are operated and checked
Combustion chamber and flue gas circuits are checked for cleanliness with
refractory brickwork in good condition and expansion allowances are clear
All valves and fittings installed on remaining lines (such as instrument air,
cooling water, fuel lines and so on) are proven clear and in working order
All installed instrumentation are in good and working conditions
Before start-up of the steam generator, it should be verified that all the
auxiliary equipments are in proper working condition and all the control
devices have been positively tested
Critical checks for start-up of Boiler:
Verify the proper functioning of the level gauge (Boiler). If necessary level
gauge drains are to be operated and the level gauge is checked. Ensure that
water comes out of the level gauge drains and that upstream piping is not
blocked by impurities. In case of doubt and if necessary remove the drain
valves and clear the upstream piping of blockages
Verify that all the Boiler and Economizer drains are closed
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 244 of 517
Verify that main steam stop valve and relevant by-pass valves are completely
closed
Verify the proper operation of all the control and block valves
Verify that all equipment inspection doors are properly closed
Verify that feed water is available with proper quality
5.15.2 Water Filling
Before the Boiler start-up operation, boiler has to be filled with water up to
the operating level
Feed water must always be introduced slowly into the boiler. The filling water
flow rate depends on the water temperature.
In general 20C is the minimum recommended value of the feed water
temperature. If this value is higher than 40C, the steam generator should be
filled very slowly in order to prevent stress on the boiler components
(particularly on drums)
Before starting boiler filling, all vent valves (both manual and actuated) shall
be fully opened
Ensure that the manual start-up vent valves GV-5045 & GV-5046 are fully open
Boiler and Economizer drains shall be opened (in order to check their proper
operation). Boiler and Economizer drain valves shall be closed after few
minutes
All the vent valves are to be kept open. This is to vent out air pockets inside
steam generator tubes to atmosphere
When water exits from the Economizer vent, the relevant Economizer vent
manual valve has to be closed.
Keep 68-PIC-1819 in Manual Mode and Open 68-PV-1524 fully (MV=100%).

Open the start-up vent 68-PV-1523 fully in Manual Mode.
Confirm that the LP Steam Outlet 68-MOV-1522 is in closed position.

Ensure that the BFW Pumps 6834-P-22 A/B/C are running.
Ensure that the BFW inlet 68-XV-1522 & 68-XV-1524 are open.
Ensure that complex product Injection package is started as per section 5.12.1
and complex product is dosed at a rate of 1.87 l/hr to the BFW.
Gradually open the 68-LV-1522 in Manual Mode and fill the downstream line.
Gradually open the valve GV-5013 and fill the Boiler Steam Drum 6848-V-02A
with DM water.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 245 of 517
Fill the Boiler gradually and open the drain lines one by one for flushing.
Close all the drain valves after ensuring sediment free water from Boiler.
Monitor the level in the Steam Drum.

Check for water leakages if any.
Raise the Steam Drum Water level up to normal level.

Confirm that the all drain valves are closed properly.
Water filling is completed when drum level is at about 50 mm below the

normal water level (NWL) so that there is enough volume for expansion during
subsequent water heating when burner is lighted.
Note: Achieving of drum level is a necessary and mandatory pre-condition for boiler
start-up operation. Normal Water Level is located +50 mm above Steam Drum centre line.

5.15.7 Start-up from Cold Condition (Manual Mode)
Start-up from cold condition refers to the boiler that is being started at atmospheric
pressure and ambient temperature.
While starting the Boiler on Cold conditions, the following also has to be verified:
Economizer manual vent valves are closed

Boiler and Economizer manual drain valves are closed
Desuperheater 6848-X-03A Boiler Feed water control valve 68-TV-1522 is closed as

it is not necessary to use the Desuperheater 6848-X-03A during initial start-up as
the first steam produced is still cold
Motorized main steam stop valve and relevant motorized by-pass valve are
completely closed.
Before lighting any burner the Forced Draft Fan 6848-K-02A and the Flue Gas
Recirculation Fan 6848-K-03A are to be started in order to allow the system to be
ready to initiate the boiler purging and also the fuel gas lines leakage test.
Provided that all detailed sequences and controls as described in BMS Controls are
satisfied, it is necessary to wait for a sufficient time to completely purge all boiler
flue gas passages.
Light up the first burner according to the operating sequence described on BMS
controls.
The boiler thermal heat input introduced through the burner must be maintained at
boiler minimum load.

MANUAL
/212
When saturated steam starts to exit from vents installed on the saturated steam line
(this means that boiler pressure is slightly higher than atmospheric pressure) the vent
valve installed on the saturated steam line to be closed to increase the Boiler
pressure.
During start-up, the boiler pressurisation curve (that is, saturated pressure and
saturated temperature vs. time) shown in the following figure Boiler start-up curve
to be followed for pressurisation.
To follow the burner should be operated at minimum allowable firing rate and if
necessary the burner should be shut down and subsequently (after purging time)
started up.
Note: Faster start-up can cause serious damages to boiler. In order to comply with
boiler pressurisation limit curve shown on following figure the burner can be lighted
off/lighted on, as long as necessary.
During boiler pressurisation, do not exceed the following limitations:
30C/h: from ambient temperature up to about 130C (2 barg steam pressure)

55C/h: from 2 barg steam pressure till to MCR operating pressure
During the boiler heating ramp, when adequate steam pressure is reached the burner
load/fuel heat input can be increased from its minimum, but in any case the boiler
pressurisation curve shall be correctly followed.
When adequate steam flow rate is reached, the Boiler Feed Water to Desuperheater
6848-X-03A is lined up.

5.15.8 Start-up from Hot Condition
If the steam generator is in hot" condition (that is, the boiler is close to the value of
operating pressure/temperature, condition that practically occurs immediately after
or a few hours after a boiler trip) the following conditions often exist:
Main steam stop valve 68-MOV-1522 and its by-pass valve are closed
Actuated start-up vent valve 68-PV-1523 is closed
Before starting the boiler again, Operator shall check the existing differential pressure
between Steam Drum 6848-V-02A pressure and steam header downstream of main
steam stop valve pressure. When the two pressures are equalised then steam from
Steam Drum can be lined up to the header.
After opening the actuated start-up steam vent valve the burner is started at minimum
firing conditions. The Boiler pressure slowly increases. When the pressure increases
above the header pressure, the produced steam from Steam Drum can be lined up to
the steam network through the motorised main steam shut off valve 68-MOV-1522.
If the steam network grid pressure is higher than the boiler pressure, the motorised
steam shut off valve 68-MOV-1522 should remain closed.
In case steam network grid pressure is lower than the Boiler pressure and main stop
valve is closed, then the bypass valve is crack opened to pressurise the network grid.
At the end of this pressurisation activity, when the network grid pressure is equal or a
little bit lower than boiler pressure (approx 0,5 bar), the motorised main steam stop
valve shall be fully opened by Operator. After that, the actuated start-up vent valve
shall be gradually closed.
During this transfer, the firing rate shall be maintained constant. Then the firing ramp
can be started.
It is strongly recommended during boiler ramping, do not exceed the following

limitations:
55C/h: from 2 barg steam pressure to MCR operating pressure

5.15.9 Going On Line
Once the Boiler has reached the operating pressure, the main shut off steam valve
can be opened completely (provided that downstream steam network grid is
warmed up and ready to take the boiler steam). The start-up vent valve can now
be closed.
When this transfer is completed and the alignment between Steam Generator and
steam network grid line has been stabilised, the Boiler load can be increased from
minimum load.

When the Boiler is stabilized, the Steam Pressure Controller 68-PIC-1819 can be
put in AUTO.
The Steam Pressure Controller 68-PIC-1819 varies the firing rate of the fuel gas
according to the pressure set point.
The entire system should be kept under close surveillance until full load operating
conditions are achieved. There is always the possibility of a defect in the safety
cut outs.
The operation of burner and the flame pattern shall be closely monitored during
start-up phase.
Two scanners are installed on each burner so to reveal the flame presence. The
flame pattern must be checked directly on field by Operator through the
peepholes installed on each burner and in the rear furnace wall.
The flame pattern shall be set in order to have a good flame, without furnace
tube impingement and achieving minimum unburned emissions (basically CO
content on flue gases).
Operator shall verify that the combustion takes place correctly, monitoring the
flame pattern.
5.16 LEAK CHECKING OF SYSTEMS
Leak checking of process systems to be done after maintenance of equipment or break

open of piping flanges for repair/maintenance works.
Preparation:
Ensure that the following activities are completed:
Relevant Work Permit have been filled up and signed

The system is reinstated as per P&IDs
Pressurising manifold with suitable PSV and pressure gauge will be used.
Leak Check:

depressurisation.
Repeat the above procedure till there is no leak identified
Hold the pressure for 30 minutes and record the pressure loss. If the pressure loss
is less than 0.05 bar/hr, the system will be considered to be leak free.
5.17 PURGING
Purging of process lines and equipments with Nitrogen is to be carried out prior to
introduction of acid gases into the process system. Process System and piping which
contains acid gases are Nitrogen purged using an approved inerting procedure.
A. Pre-requisite for Nitrogen Purging

1. Verify portable radios are available for communication.
2. Verify that all-loose materials and tools have been cleaned up prior to nitrogen
purging.
3. Obtain Oxygen monitors for testing Oxygen concentration during purging.
4. Verify that all personnel are appropriately equipped with required PPEs including
hard hats, goggles, earplugs and gas monitoring equipment.
5. Prior to initiating purge, a toolbox talk shall be held for the personnel regarding
the purging and the hazards of Nitrogen gas.
B. Preparation
1. Risk assessment shall be done prior to purging of each system.
2. System shall be marked and identified in the P&ID. Also the point used for purging
will be marked in P&ID.
3. The PI and PGs in the system will be used for monitoring the system pressure.
4. Pressure test with nitrogen is carried along with the nitrogen purging.
5. Depressurisation points shall be chosen such that the whole system is
depressurised and no pressure is trapped downstream of check valves.
C. Purging Procedure for Vessels & Equipment
1. Purging of Process Systems is critical for a safe start-up of the facility.
2. Purging is accomplished by using Nitrogen.
3. While carrying out the vessels and equipment purging ensure vents and pressure
taps such as gauge glass, level control bridles, spare pumps, etc., are properly
purged. Purging and testing should be continued until Oxygen content is less than
2%. A sample is taken in each case from the system being purged at the purge

SECTION VI START-UP OF PLANT

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 259 of 517
6.1 GENERAL
The start-up procedure of the SRU depends on the exact situation of the unit at any
particular point of time. The various cases are:
Start-up after a major turnaround shutdown

Start-up after an emergency shutdown, where the unit is ready to be taken on
stream immediately
When starting the unit after a shutdown, only the relevant procedures are followed
depending on the status of the various sections of the unit and nature of jobs carried
out. All safety precautions as per the safety rules and regulations are followed while
taking over and starting up of any equipment or section of the unit. There are
standard procedures to be followed as per the QP safety manuals for inspection,
followed by accepting/deblinding any equipment before taking in line.
Smooth start-up will depend to a larger degree on how well the unit is checked prior
to start-up. In a major turnaround shutdown, all vessel internals are inspected, and if
there are any modifications to be carried out, it is completed and the vessels boxed
up. All safety items should be checked before, during and after start-up to ensure safe
and stable operation.
During start-up, the operating conditions of each unit must be adjusted to bring the
product specifications in line with the design values. During the period of off-spec
product it should be vented to flare system as far as possible to meet the required
specification. Prior planning of various start-up activities can eliminate delay and
improve the safety of personnel and equipment.

6.3.3.2 Heating Up the System
1. Take fuel gas controller 91-FIC-1009 in manual and slowly increase the fuel gas to
Reaction Furnace.
2. Take the combustion air controller 91-FIC-1002/91-FIC-1002B in manual and
increase the combustion air to the Reaction Furnace.
3. Proceed to heat up the Reaction Furnace at 50C/hr
Note
1) If the converters have been filled with catalyst following the units pre-
commissioning refractory dry out phase, then for the first start-up of the unit,
the rate of temperature increase of the process air must be initially controlled
to slowly heat up the converters at 10-15C/hr to 90C to ensure any free
water and moisture is removed in the converters catalyst beds. In this case the
introduction of BFW to the steam generators will be delayed until the
converters catalyst beds are first heated through to 90C.
2) As the SRU process gas system and the SRU converters does not contain sulphur
compounds at this time, firing of fuel gas in the Reaction Furnace burner may
be carried out in excess air conditions.
4. Open LP steam shutdown valve 91-XV-1079 to the Reaction Furnace.

5. To suppress the formation of carbon and soot at stoichiometric firing conditions,
introduce LP steam to the SRU Reaction Furnace burner fuel gas line when a
temperature of >300C is seen in the Reaction Furnace and the SRU converters are
heated through to >120C. Set the steam flow in the ratio of 1:1 (by wt.) of fuel
gas. Note that the furnace temperature will dictate the amount of steam used. Too
much steam could result in interference of the burners flame detectors resulting in
a burner trip. Before opening steam valves ensure steam lines are fully drained of
condensate.
6. Continue to heat up the Reaction Furnace at 50C/hr
7. When steam blows from the SRU Reaction Furnace Boiler 9101-E-07 atmospheric
vent, set Reaction Furnace Boiler pressure controller 91-PV-1003 in automatic
mode at 24.0 barg and route excess steam to the LP steam system.
8. Using the MS steam produced in the SRU Reaction Furnace Boiler, heat the Process
Air Pre-heater 9101-E-05 outlet process air temperature at 50C/hr to 210C
9. When steam emits from each LP Steam Generator 9101-E-01/9101-E-02
atmospheric vents, close vents and route excess steam to the LP steam system.
10. Open LP steam to 9101-E-08 and start heating the BFW to 120C.
11. Now the 1st Stage Auxiliary Burner 9101-F-02 and the 2nd Stage Auxiliary Burner
9101-F-03 to be started to heat up the converters up to their normal operating
temperatures.

following procedure should be adopted to fill the sultraps with liquid sulphur.
Note: It is necessary to use a respirator or fresh air breathing apparatus to ensure
complete operator safety during this operation.
Slowly open each of the condensers sulphur outlet drain valves and observe
through the open sultrap inspection door
When opening a sultrap if acid gas vapour appears, usually as a white smoky
gas, this will indicate that no liquid sulphur has collected behind the isolation
valve. The sultrap should be closed immediately in this case and only opened
again after about 10 minutes. If only a bluish haze with little pressure behind
it shows from the sultrap, this indicates that the sultrap is filling with liquid
sulphur and the condensers sulphur outlet valve can be left open.
Check the sultrap inspection door at regular intervals until sulphur is seen to
flow from each seal
When sulphur is seen at the condensers sulphur outlet valve may now be left
open to allow the sulphur to flow freely
Repeat this exercise until sulphur is seen to flow from all three seals
Note: It may take a considerable period of time, possibly several hours before
sulphur is seen to flow from the third condenser.

Maintain lean amine flows to the amine absorbers at the correct flows for efficient
absorption of H2S in the towers.
Maintain amine and gas temperatures as given below:
Flow Pressure, bar(a) Temp. C

Amine flow to Acid Gas Amine Absorber
4.69 45

Process gas flow to Acid Gas Amine Absorber
1.38 49
9103-C-11
Regularly test the concentration of the lean amine. Add fresh amine if the
strength is <50%. A low strength or weak solution will result in the inefficient
absorption of H2S in the absorber with the possibility of slippage of off
specification treated gas. This will be detected by the treated gas analyser
91-AI-1501 showing a higher than normal concentration of H2S and other sulphur
species in the absorber effluent vent gases to the Incinerator 9101-F-14 resulting
in an increase of SO2 emissions to atmosphere from the Incinerator Stack 9101-X-
01. Increasing the amine solution strength should correct this problem. An initial
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 324 of 517
correction may be possible by increasing the circulating flow of the amine solution
above its normal design flow rate until the strength of the solution can be
corrected.
Regularly check the H2S/H2 analyzer 91-AT-1501 for normal operation.
Regularly check that the nitrogen blanketing systems to the Amine Surge Tank
9103-T-11 and to the Amine Sump 9103-V-10 are operating; failure of a blanketing
gas system and the ingress of air will result in the degradation of the amine and
the production of sludge in the system.
Maintain the Amine Surge Tank 9103-T-11 at minimum level, 20-30%, so that space
is available in the tank to store amine from the system at times when the unit is
shutdown for inspection.
Replace water losses by adding condensate to the Amine Surge Tank 9103-T-11.
Maintain a steam (Kg/hr) to the Regenerator Re-boiler 9103-E-13 to rich amine

(m3/hr) to the Amine Regenerator 9103-C-12 ratio of 118.5:1.0 to ensure efficient
stripping of H2S from the amine in the Amine Regenerator 9103-C-12. Insufficient
LP steam flow to the Regenerator Re-boiler 9103-E-13 or fouling of the Re-boiler
tubes will result in incomplete regeneration of the rich amine solution. Increasing
the LP steam flow should correct the problem, however severely fouled Re-boiler
tubes will require a unit shutdown to allow the Re-boiler to be cleaned.
Monitor the Acid Gas Amine Absorber 9103-C-11 differential pressure indicator and
Amine Regenerator 9103-C-13 differential pressure indicator as given below. A
gradual increase in pressure differential in a tower over a period of time will
indicate fouling, whilst an increase in pressure differential over a short period will
indicate foaming or flooding of the tower. In this case antifoam should be injected
into an injection point before the problem tower and the amine circulation flow
should be temporarily reduced to reduce the liquid/vapour loadings across the
towers packed sections.

7.1.2 Sulphur Recovery Unit
The operation and monitoring of the SRU includes the following activities:
a. Acid Feed Gas System
Regularly check Acid Gas KO Drum 9101-V-04 level gauge 91-LG-1001 and compare
with DCS indicated level 91-LI-1001
Check for excessive liquid carryover from the upstream AGEU Amine Regenerator
9103-C-12
Do not drain sour water to the open sewer from low point drains due to the toxic
nature of the H2S saturated water and gas in the KO drums.
b. H2S:SO2 Ratio Control
The most important control variable in the operation of a SRU is the H2S:SO2 ratio in
the tail gas at the outlet of the SRU Final Separator 9101-V-05. The following points
should be noted:
If the Tail Gas Analyser 91-ARC-1001 should be temporarily out of service, sample
the tail gas and analyse for H2S:SO2. Analysis of the tail gas may be carried out
crudely by Drager tube or by chemical lab analysis.
Maintain the Tail Gas Analyser 91-ARC-1001 in good working order to ensure the
SRU is operating at its maximum efficiency for conversion of H2S to liquid sulphur
in the SRU converters (9101-V-01 & 9101-V-02) and have the correct ratio of H2S
and SO2 gases for the TGTU.
The main air to acid gas ratio controller 91-HIC-1001 point is adjusted as necessary
to change the main process air flow control valve position. The Tail Gas Analyser
91-ARC-1001 will control the trim air to fine tune the air required by the process
to achieve the desired H2S:SO2 ratio in tail gases. When the TGTU is in service with
the SRU then the SRU tail gases H2S:SO2 ratio should be 4.0:1.0. If the SRU is in
service without the TGTU then the tail gases H2S:SO2 ratio should be 2.0:1.0. If the
composition of the acid gas should change then the analyser may drive the trim air
control valve 91-FV-1003 fully open or fully closed; in this case a small adjustment
will have to be made to the main air to acid gas ratio controller to increase or
decrease the total air to allow the Tail Gas Analyser to bring the trim air control
valve 91-FV-1003 back onto control.
The control room operator responsible for the amine unit must inform the SRU
control room operator of impending changes in acid gas flow rates and/or upset
operating conditions in these units that will affect the operation of the SRU and
TGTU.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 327 of 517
c. Controllers Operation
To ensure good control of the processes at all times the following should be noted:
When the acid gas flow is steady, and the SRU is on automatic, set all controllers
for maximum speed and accuracy of response with control stability. A sudden
reduction in acid gas feed without the accompanied change in air rate could result
in high temperatures in the SRU converters (9101-V-01 & 9101-V-02) catalyst beds;
whilst a sudden increase in acid gas feed without the corresponding increase in air
rate will result in an increase in the amount of acid gas in the SRU tail gas and
increased load on the TGTU Desuperheater/Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 and
possibly the Incinerator 9101-F-14.
An increase in H2S concentration and decrease of SO2 in the SRU tail gas to the
TGTU will cause a decrease in temperature rise across the Hydrogenation Reactor
9102-V-11, whilst an increase in SO2 and decrease of H2S concentration in the SRU
tail gas to the TGTU will cause an increase in temperature rise across the
Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11.
The SRU Tail Gas Analyser 91-ARC-1001 should be set to a maximum possible speed
and response in order not to cause the SRU tail gas compositions of H2S and SO2 to
vary too widely.
Steam Generators BFW level controllers should be set to maintain the water levels
at their recommended levels. A swinging water level may cause water to be
carried over into the steam system which will cause downstream problems with
process units operations.
d. Reaction Furnace Monitoring:
The following points should be noted to ensure good reaction furnace operation:
Control of the SRU Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 temperature is most important to

ensure the correct reactions are occurring with the acid gas in the furnace. The
Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 temperature should ideally be maintained >1250C to
maximise thermal sulphur production in the Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01.
If Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 temperatures appear excessive, check air and acid
gas or fuel gas meters, and the Tail Gas Analyser 91-ARC-1001, to be sure the air
to acid gas ratio is correct.
Be alert for hot spots on the outside of the shell of the Reaction Furnace 9101-F-
01 that would indicate refractory trouble.
Observe Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 inlet pressure, an increase above normal will
indicate a possible partial blockage in downstream converters and condensers
and/or in the TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor and wet section towers.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 328 of 517
e. SRU Converters (9101-V-01 & 9101-V-02)
The following points will help ensure efficient converter operation:
Keep close surveillance of the temperatures at the inlet of SRU 1st Stage Converter
9101-V-01 and 2nd Stage Converter 9101-V-02. Keep these temperatures at
230/210C to avoid liquid sulphur deposition on the catalyst.
Sulphur deposition in a SRU 1st Stage Converter 9101-V-01 and 2nd Stage Converter
9101-V-02 catalysts is indicated by a progressive catalyst bed temperature drop
starting at the top and continuing downward. If this is noted, increase the
corresponding converter inlet temperature by adjusting the upstream auxiliary
burner outlet temperature to carry out a rejuvenation of the converters catalyst.
Over long periods of operation a decrease in the activity of a SRU 1st Stage
Converter 9101-V-01 and 2nd Stage Converter 9101-V-02 catalysts will be seen. The
reaction of the H2S and SO2 in the process gas combining to form sulphur vapour is
seen by the exothermic reaction in the converters. As the converters catalysts age
this exothermic temperature rise reaction will be seen to move further down the
converters catalyst bed. The temperature rise across the first converter will
decrease whilst the temperature increase across the second converter will
increase.
An increased pressure drop across the SRU, seen by an increased pressure on the
Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 process air inlet line pressure indicator 91-PI-1054
A/B/C, could indicate the deposition of soot/carbon deposits on the converters
catalysts. Soot and carbon deposits are the result of operating the SRU at start-up
or during a hot inert gas sweep with insufficient process air or steam injection to
the fuel gas in the Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 burner or the result of excess
hydrocarbons in the acid feed gases to the SRU.
SRU converters 1st Stage Converter 9101-V-01 and 2nd Stage Converter 9101-V-02
catalyst deterioration can be partially reversed by carrying out a catalyst
rejuvenation exercise. Failure of signs of improved catalyst activity following a
series of rejuvenations will require the catalyst to be sulphur stripped.
Note that soot/carbon deactivation can only be corrected by removal of the
contaminated top layers of catalyst from the reactors and replenishment with new.
f. SRU Steam Generators & Condensers
The following points should be carried out to ensure good operation of the Steam
Generators:
Regularly check the levels (as given below) of the SRU Reaction Furnace Boiler
9101-E-07 Steam Drum 9101-V-07, Reaction Furnace Condenser 9101-E-01, 1st
Stage Condenser 9101-E-02 and Last Condenser 9101-E-04. These levels can vary
on load change, especially during start-up, but will normally present no problem
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 329 of 517
unless there is evidence of water carryover in the steam systems. In that case,
gradually lower the steam generators level by operating the intermittent blow
down. Blowing down too quickly could result in the start of a cycling level in the
steam generator by an over compensating level controller.

3. 1st Stage Condenser 9101-E-02 91-LG-1005 91-LT-1011
Keep a record of the analysis of the treated Boiler Feed Water that enters the
unit. Also maintain a record of the analysis of each Steam Generator Boiler Feed
Water. These samples are drawn from the vessels continuous blow down lines
through the sample coolers.
Maintain total dissolved solids, TDS, in the boiler water to below 3000 ppm for the
LP Steam Generators and 1500 ppm for the SRU Reaction Furnace Boiler 9101-E-07.
Control the TDS in each Steam Generator by the setting of the continuous blow
down valve.
Carry out an intermittent blow down of each Steam Generator periodically to

remove any accumulated sludge in the bottoms of the vessels. The frequency of
this blow down will depend upon the quality of the Boiler Feed Water; a Boiler
Feed Water containing a high TDS content will require more frequent intermittent
blow downs than a demineralised or condensate based Boiler Feed Water that has
a lower TDS content. Not using these blow downs will result in solids carry over
from the Steam Generators into the steam systems. The long term result will be is
the failure of the Steam Generators tubes due to overheating and or water side
corrosion.
Maintain the Reaction Furnace Boiler 9101-E-07 at its operating pressure of
24.0 barg and the Reaction Furnace condenser 9101-E-01 and 1st Stage Condenser
9101-E-02 at 5.0 barg. Operating the LP steam system pressure higher than
advised will result in viscous sulphur leaving the condensers and high temperatures
in the sulphur pit.

7.1.3 Tail Gas Treatment Unit
The operation and monitoring of the TGTU includes the following activities:
a. Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 Operation
To maintain good operation of the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 the following

points should be noted:
Maintain the RGG outlet temperature at 290C

Maintain the RGG process air to fuel gas at a sub-stoichiometric ratio of
approximately 14.0:1.0 (by weight)
Maintain the RGG steam to fuel gas at a ratio of approximately 2.0:1.0 (by weight)
The chemical conversion of SO2 to H2S in the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 is
exothermic. Changes in the H2S and SO2 concentrations in the SRU tail gases will
be seen by a temperature change across the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11. A
change in the H2 content, normally 2.0-4.0%, in the Tail Gas Amine Absorber
9102-C-12 outlet vent gases will also be seen. An increase in T across the reactor
indicates an increase in SO2 and a decrease in H2S in the SRU tail gases, whilst an
increase of H2S and decrease of SO2 in the SRU tail gases will results in a decrease
in T across the reactor. When a change in the H2 content of the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber 9102-C-12 vent gases is seen, check the upstream amine unit operation
and the SRU Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 controllers operation.
Observe the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 catalyst T 91-TDI-1307; it should
normally be approximately 32C.
Reactor inlet (91-TIC-1307) and outlet (91-TI-1310) temperatures are to be
maintained around 290C and 322C respectively, Provided the unit is operated
correctly the reactor catalyst should last for several years.
Over long periods of operation a decrease in the activity of the Hydrogenation
Reactor 9101-V-11 catalyst will be seen. In the Hydrogenation Reactor 9101-V-11
deterioration in catalyst activity is seen by the point of reaction temperature
moving down the catalyst bed and/or the T (91-TDI-1307) increase falling below
the 32C expected across the reactor and possibly by an increase in the
concentration of hydrogen seen by the Hydrogen Analyser 91-AI-1301 in the Tail
Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12 outlet vent gas line.
If the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 catalyst activity has declined then an
increase in reactor inlet temperature may temporarily restore some activity,
however a catalyst regeneration exercise will be eventually be required followed
by sulphiding the catalyst to fully restore catalyst activity.
Periodically, e.g. every 3 months, sample the reactor outlet process gas and
analyse for SO2.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 332 of 517
b. De superheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 Operation
The following points should be carried out to ensure good operation of the
De superheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 tower:
Maintain the Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 tower top temperature

(91-TI-1317) at 42C.
Maintain the top (91-FIC-1307), bottom (91-FIC-1314) circulating water flows at
197 m3/hr and 199 m3/hr, respectively.
Control the Desuperheater circulating water pH between 9.0 and 10.0 by

monitoring 91-AI-1302. Regularly check pH analyser probe for cleanliness and flow
of sample to ensure it gives accurate readings. Daily samples to check the water
pH using a portable pH meter or litmus paper should be used to verify the pH
analyser accuracy. Failure of the analyser over a period of time could result in low
pH circulation water and corrosion of equipment. Adjust Desuperheater circulating
water pH by small injections, 1 - 2 litres of liquid caustic injection at a time. Over
injection of caustic will result in free caustic in the circulating water with the
potential for caustic deposition and possible fouling of equipment.
Note the times that caustic has to be injected. An increase in the frequency of
caustic additon has to be added to the Desuperheater circulating water suggest
that the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 catalyst is not fully converting SO2 to
H2S.
Regularly check the Desuperheater circulating water for colour. The water colour
will change from brown to dark brown to black over time as it becomes
contaminated by traces of SO2 which pass out of the Hydrogenation Reactor
9102-V-11 into the Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11. Should a sudden
breakthrough of SO2 from the Hydrogenation Reactor 9102-V-11 occur then a rapid
change of the circulating water colour will take place, accompanied by a low pH.
Should a sudden breakthrough of SO2 occur due to an upset in the SRU, and if the
upset condition is likely to take some time to correct, then it is advised that the
Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11/Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12,
i.e. the TGTU wet section, are temporarily taken off line to minimise any low pH
corrosion of the Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 and possible
degradation to the Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12 circulating amine.
Periodically change out the Desuperheater circulating water by manually bleeding
off to the spent caustic system. Water from the top cooling section of the
Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 automatically replenish the towers
bottom Desuperheater section level.
Monitor the Desuperheater Contact Condenser 9102-C-11 tower packed sections
differential pressure indicators 91-PDI-1323/1324. An increase in differential
pressure >0.04 barg could indicate packing fouling or flooding whilst a decrease in
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 333 of 517
pressure could indicate low circulation water flow and/or poor distribution across
the packing.
c. Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12
The absorption of H2S by the Methyl Di Ethanol Amine (MDEA) in the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber 9102-C-12 is a function of the following:
The flow and distribution of MDEA falling down the Tail Gas Amine Absorber
9102-C-12 tower through the upward flow of process gases
The temperature of the lean MDEA entering the Tail Gas Amine Absorber
9102-C-12
The concentration and condition of the lean MDEA entering the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber 9102-C-12
Monitoring of the amine unit will include the following:
Regularly check the following Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12 level gauges and
compare with DCS indicated levels:
Vessel Vessel Tag No. Level Gauge Tag No.

9102-LG-1304A
9102-LG-1304B
9102-LG-1304C

given below to confirm correct operation:
Vessel Vessel Tag No. Level Transmitter Tag No.

9102-LT-1308
Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12 9102-LT-1301
9102-LT-1310
Maintain lean amine flow (91-FIC-1301) to the amine absorber at the correct flow
for efficient absorption of H2S in the towers.
Maintain amine and gas temperatures as given below.

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 334 of 517
Regularly test the concentration of the lean amine. Add fresh amine if the
strength is <50%.
Regularly check the healthiness of the H2S/H2 analyser 91-AI-1301 for normal
operation.
Monitor the Tail Gas Amine Absorber 9102-C-12 differential pressure indicator
9102-PDI-1327. A gradual increase in pressure differential in a tower over a period
of time will indicate fouling, whilst an increase in pressure differential over a
short period will indicate foaming or flooding of the tower. In this case antifoam
should be injected into an injection point and the amine circulation flow should be
temporarily reduced to reduce the liquid/vapour loadings across the towers
packed sections.

7.1.4 Instrumentation
The following actions should be carried out to ensure that all instrumentation is
operating satisfactorily:
The SRU Reaction Furnace 9101-F-01 burner instruments and peep sight nozzles
are purged by instrument air during normal operation and by nitrogen at times of
unit shutdown. In all cases it is important to ensure the purge flows are in
operation to ensure the process tapping points do not block with corrosion
products and/or sulphur deposits. A daily check should be made to ensure that
these purges are taking place, failure or an incorrect purge flow to an instrument
or peep sight nozzle will result in the blockage of the tapping point or nozzle with
sulphur vapours.
Set up a preventative maintenance programme to regularly check critical
instrumentation. It is advised that all instrumentation which initiates a unit
shutdown should be checked every three months. Monitoring instruments such as
Tail Gas Analysers, H2/H2S and pH analysers should be checked weekly.
7.1.5 Process On-Stream Analysis and Testing
The good operation of the AGEU, SRU and TGTU can be maintained by close
observation of a number of analysers. The SRU tail gas H2S/SO2 analyser and the TGTU
Tail Gas Amine Absorber vent gas H2/H2S analysers. The information seen on these
analysers will inform the operator of the condition of the SRU and TGTU processes as
follows:
The SRU tail gas analyser is the most important analyser within the SRU/TGTU.
Failure of this analyser to control the correct volume of trim air to the SRU
Reaction Furnace burner will result, in the event that there is a change in
composition of the acid feed gas, in an abnormal ratio of H2S and SO2 passing from
the SRU and into the TGTU. The consequences of high H2S concentrations in the
SRU tail gases will result in a reduction in the reactions taking place in the TGTU
Hydrogenation Reactor (reduced delta temperature across reactor) and potential
overloading of the tail gas amine absorber amine solution ability to absorb the
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 338 of 517
higher than normal loading of H2S gases from the process gases. This will result in
H2S slippage in the Tail Gas Amine Absorbers vent gases to the Incinerator and
possibly an increase of SO2 to atmosphere via the Incinerator stack. The
consequences of high SO2 concentrations in the SRU tail gas will result in higher
than normal temperatures in the TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor (increased delta
temperature across reactor) and the possible breakthrough of SO2 to the DCC
tower and Tail Gas Amine Absorber. Severe SO2 breakthrough will result in
excessive corrosion of the DCC and Tail Gas Amine Absorber and degradation of
the circulating amine solution
The Tail Gas Amine Absorber process vent gas outlet H2/H2S analyser may be used
as a guide to the operation of the SRU Reaction Furnace burner stoichiometry. A
reduction in the H2 and H2S contents of the Tail Gas Amine Absorber vent gases
will indicate that the SRU Reaction Furnace is off ratio producing a higher than
normal concentration of SO2 in its tail gases; i.e. too much process air. This
process change may be confirmed by an increase in the delta temperature across
the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst bed. If the H2 and H2S contents of the Tail Gas
Amine Absorber outlet vent gas should increase then the SRU is off ratio producing
too much H2S in its tail gas; i.e. too little process air. This process change may be
confirmed by a decrease in the delta temperature across the Hydrogenation
Reactors catalyst bed. In both cases an increase of SO2 to atmosphere via the
Incinerator stack will occur
The pH analyser employed in the DCC Desuperheater circulating water stream will
indicate a low pH when any SO2 breakthrough occurs from the upstream
Hydrogenation Reactor. To avoid corrosion of the equipment the desuperheating
circulating water pH must always be alkaline, ideally in the 9.0 10.0 range. In
the event of a sudden reduction of the contact condensers desuperheating
circulating water pH, due to a breakthrough of SO2 from the Hydrogenation
Reactor, the process gas flow from the Reactor Effluent Cooler to the contact
condenser should be temporarily redirected to the Incinerator until the process
upset has been corrected
Regular testing of the lean amine solution must be carried out to determine
solution strength and H2S loading. If the solution strength is <40% then add fresh
amine to the system via the amine surge tank fill connection. If the lean amine
arriving at the Acid Gas Amine Absorber and the Tail Gas Amine Absorber is only
semi lean, i.e. part loaded with H2S, then it is not being fully regenerated in the
Amine Regenerator and operating corrections are required at the Regenerator
The following is a suggested program for the analysis of the AGEU, SRU and TGTU gas
and liquid streams. This program may be modified following operating experience of
the units:
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 339 of 517
Daily:
DCC Desuperheater section water for pH and colour
Twice Weekly:
Steam Generators waters for TDS and treating chemicals
Lean amine for strength and H2S loading

Weekly:
SRU tail gas for H2S and SO2

Acid gas amine absorber vent gas for H2S
TGTU Tail Gas Amine Absorber vent gas for H2S

Monthly:
DCC top cooling water for pH

TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor outlet for SO2
Incinerator stack gas for O2 and SO2
Three Monthly:
SRU feed acid gas for H2S and hydrocarbons

Incinerator stack gas for H2S and NOX
7.1.6 Tail Gas Incinerator
For normal operation of the Incinerator the following parameters has to be

monitored
The normal operation of Incinerator is controlled by stack temperature controller
91-TIC-1155, set at 817C.
It can be adjusted by adjusting the air fuel gas ratio via 91-HIC-1155A, which in
turn adjusts the fuel and combustion air control valves.
Ensure the Air/fuel gas ratio set point provided by the operator in the Incinerator
is 19.85 (Range: 14-24).
Monitor the performance of Incinerator Air Blowers 9101-K-12A/B frequently
Maintain the fuel gas flow (91-FIC-1155) to the Incinerator at 2256.9 Sm3/hr
Maintain the combustion air flow (91-FIC-1156) to the Incinerator at
46938.7 Sm3/hr
All the process variables are controlled by monitoring Oxygen and SOX/NOX
contents in the flue gas from stack. The excess Oxygen, SOX and NOX are
continuously monitored by 91-AT-1051, 91-AT-1052 and 91-AT-1053, respectively.

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 353 of 517
Detailed inspection of the entire plant should be made to detect any

malfunctions of Boiler Feed Water pumps and Chemical Injection pumps.
Monitor the pressure and flow trend of the Boiler Feed Water system through 68-PI-
1307 and 68-FIC-1305. In case of any increase or decrease in consumption, take the
corrective action.
7.2.8 Steam Generation
During normal operation of the boiler, attention should be paid to the proper
operation of all the ancillaries and equipment in service.
Safe and reliable operation of the steam generator depends on routine monitoring of
the control and safety systems.
Controls and checks must be done continuously, also if the system is operated
automatically.
Any variation in the operating parameters indicates a change in boiler performances

and proper actions should be taken in order to restore the previous conditions.
In fact variations in the selected and settled parameters can result in worsening of the
auxiliary power consumption and/or boiler efficiency, or sometimes can indicate a risk
of possible damage.
For example, the increasing of the boiler flue gas exit temperature can indicate
possible carbon fouling deposition on tube surfaces or improper flame position or miss-
adjustment of the air-fuel ratio.
In particular the following parameters shall be controlled carefully.
a. Boiler Water Level
Water level variations in the boiler take place in case of rapid increase or decrease in
steam output, so the proper water level in the steam drum must be maintained.
Boiler water level is maintained by the level controller 91-LIC-1522 (set at 50%).
Monitor the Boiler water level by the level gauges 91-LG-1522 & 91-LG-1523 during
normal operation.
Regularly cross check the DCS indicated level with level gauge.
b. Boiler Feed Water
The Boiler Feed Water should be carefully treated and monitored during boiler
operation as it is essential to assure boiler integrity. It is important that plant
operators always maintain the quality of Boiler feed Water as given below.

The Steam Generator is provided with one sampling system, that allows to analyse the
quality of the Boiler Feed Water.
The Boiler Feed Water Conductivity is maintained by acting on the CBD control valve,
whose position determines the conductivity of the Boiler Feed Water.
In order to get quality Boiler Feed Water, the following actions to be taken:
Establish a strict control of Feed Water and Boiler Water parameters through a
routine sampling and subsequent chemical analysis of the samples at least one for
each working shift (8 hours) or more frequently. Record each analysis result to
easily check all data comparing them with boiler load and injection amounts of
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 355 of 517
chemical additives. This database allows also to check immediately any possible
data variation and consequently to take the necessary remedial actions.
Feed water quality: Maintain Feed Water quality continuously by acting on
Continuous Blow Down. Generally the CBD flow rate, during a good and regular
boiler operation, should be about 1% of boiler MCR (the most economic and best
operation should be based on a target of 0.5%). However, in case of need, the CBD
flow rate can be temporarily increased by 2-3%.
Operation at high CBD flow rates clearly indicates that boiler water quality is not
under control and that necessary remedial action must be taken.
Chemicals dosing injection: Operator must check that chemical dosing system is
available and that all chemicals are injected at the required rate and
concentration in the Feed Water and in Boiler Feed Water.
Attention: For water chemical conditioning, its absolutely forbidden to use strong
alkali compounds, with particular reference to those containing caustic soda (Sodium
Hydroxide) and caustic potash (Potassium Hydroxide). Its allowed to use volatile alkali
compounds, adequately dosed and in the recommended quantity and phosphate
treatment.
c. Blow down, Water Column and Glass Indicators
The CBD flow rate is automatically adjusted by the system according to the measured
value of boiler water conductivity.
The sampling system dedicated to steam generator is provided also with manual
sampling line for each sample that can be used to perform a complete analysis of the
feed/boiler water.
Typically the facilities of a qualified water treatment laboratory should be employed

to establish the feed/boiler water chemical characteristics and the chemical reactants
to be injected, their frequency and quantity.
Note: As chemical corrosion attack or salt deposition on internal surfaces generally

grows slowly on boiler internal pressure parts, BE recommends to sample and analyse
periodically the feed water and boiler water and to record the chemical analysis
results (as conductivity, pH, alkalinity, TDS and all the others) in a dedicated book. So
during steam generator life, all variations can be immediately monitored and possible
immediate corrective actions (if and when necessary) can be activated.
Note: When the boiler is in normal operation and in any cases when the boiler
water/steam pressure is higher than atmospheric pressure, no manual boiler pressure
part drain valves shall be opened.
The boiler water column and level glass indicator shall be periodically and very
carefully purged at least one time a week, so to limit sludge or sediment accumulation
in these devices.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 356 of 517
In fact all this kind of accumulated deposits could cause an erroneous indication of the
water level.
d. Flame Pattern
It is important to assure a good flame pattern in order to get a stable and safe
combustion, limiting possible impingement on furnace wall tubes or on burner throat
refractory and limiting also any possible flame pulsation.
A good combustion will allow achieving the expected boiler performance, both in
terms of steam production and flue gas emissions.
On the contrary improper flame pattern could result in carbon build-up on the external
tube surfaces that could reduce the thermal heat transfer, and consequently could
increase the flue gas temperatures at the stack, so creating an efficiency reduction.
Flame instability can cause some dangerous vibration phenomena and possible
unburned fuel zone accumulation into the furnace. This dangerous situation must be
absolutely avoided: in such case all the combustion system parameters must be
controlled again till to eliminate this disturbance.

SECTION X PLANNED SHUTDOWN

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 381 of 517
10.1 Planned Shutdown - Process
The shutdown of the AGEU, SRU, TGTU and the Incinerator is explained below. The
shutdown of the Incinerator will only take place following the shutdown of the AGEU,
SRU and the TGTU.
The planned shutdown of the process units take place in the following sequence:
TGTU
SRU
AGEU
Incinerator
10.1.1 TGTU Shutdown
Shutdown of the TGTU will proceed as follows:
TGTU Wet Section Shutdown
The shutdown of the TGTU wet section, the DCC and Tail Gas Amine Absorber tower,
may take place before or after acid feed gases are removed and replaced with fuel gas
in the SRU Reaction Furnace burner.
It is advised to stop the flow of SRU tail gas to the TGTU wet section before acid feed
gas is removed from the SRU Reaction Furnace burner, rather than after the burner is
operating on fuel gas; this action will minimise the possibility of an upset condition
during the acid gas to fuel gas change over in the SRU Reaction Furnace burner, that
could result in high concentrations of SO2 in the process gas causing corrosion of
equipment in the TGTU wet section and degradation of the amine solution in the Tail
Gas Amine Absorber.
Shutdown of the TGTU DCC and absorber tower will proceed as follows:
Open Reactor Effluent Cooler process outlet gas valve 91-XV-1331 to route
Hydrogenation section process gases to the Incinerator
Close Reactor Effluent Cooler process outlet gas valve 91-XV-1332 to the DCC
tower
Continue DCC Desuperheater and cooling waters circulations until column has
cooled to near ambient temperatures, then stop pumps
Continue circulation of lean amine to the Tail Gas Amine Absorber for a period of
time, e.g. 30 minutes, to ensure all rich amine solution has been removed to the
Amine Regenerator for regeneration, then stop lean amine flow to the Tail Gas
Amine Absorber and stop the Tail Gas Rich Amine Pump
If the DCC is to be opened for inspection then:

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 382 of 517
Before stopping the DCC tower top section cooling water pump, pump all possible
water from the top chimney tray to the Effluent Water Treatment
Pump out the bottom Desuperheater section of the DCC to the spent caustic
system
Through the condensate line to the cooling water pumps suction line, introduce
condensate to establish a level in the contact condenser tower top chimney tray
cooling section
Start a Cooling Water Recirculation Pump 9102-P-12A/B to establish water
circulation through the Contact Condenser Cooler to the top of the DCC tower
Open the DCC bottom level control valve 91-LV-1307 to transfer condensate from
the top cooling water system to establish a condensate level in the bottom of the
tower. Continue adding condensate via the Cooling Water Recirculation Pumps
suction line to maintain a water level in the top chimney tray
When a water level is established in the bottom of the DCC, start a Desuperheater
Circulation Pump 9102-P-11A/B and start circulation around the bottom of the
tower
Again pump out the bottom Desuperheater section to the spent caustic system
Sample the water whilst it is being pumped out to the spent caustic system, if the
pH of the water is near to the pH of condensate, then the Desuperheater section
has been flushed clean. Repeat filling and circulating the Desuperheater section if
further flushing is required
When flushed clean, drain any remaining water in the top cooling water and
bottom Desuperheating sections of the DCC tower to the drains system
After water washing, final cleaning and gas freeing of the DCC tower should be
carried out by steaming. The DCC process gas outlet valve to the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber is first closed and LP steam is introduced into the tower via its utility
connection.
The DCC tower is initially steamed to flare, via the towers PSV open bypass line,
and then to atmosphere before the steam is stopped, and air allowed to enter the
equipment. Steam out of the tower should be for a minimum of 4 hours to flare
followed by a minimum of 4 hours to atmosphere.
If the Tail Gas Amine Absorber is to be opened for inspection then:
Restart a Tail Gas Rich Amine Pump 9102-P-16A/B and pump out all amine from
the bottom of the Tail Gas Amine Absorber to the Acid Gas Amine Absorber
After water washing, final cleaning and gas freeing of the Tail Gas Amine Absorber
should be carried out by steaming. LP steam is introduced into the tower via its
utility connection and steamed to the Incinerator for a minimum of 8 hours
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 383 of 517
Note: The Incinerator must be in operation when steam out of the Tail Gas Amine
Absorber is taking place.

10.2.9 Instrument air Shutdown
10.2.9.1 Shutdown of Instrument Air Compressor
The Instrument Air Compressor is normally kept in Remote-Auto mode during normal
operation. Hence, depending on the demand of instrument air, the Compressor will get
stopped automatically.
Auto Stop
In Remote mode, if the Compressor runs unloaded for a period of time (maximum 20
minutes idling delay), the Compressor gets stopped. The Compressor will restart only
when the air is required.
Compressor Manual stop
A compressor can be taken for planned shutdown after ensuring the healthiness of
Stand-by Compressor
In remote mode compressor can be stopped by the operator from ICSS/UCP. In local
mode Compressor can be stopped by pressing the STOP pushbutton in Local Control
Panel.

SECTION XI EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 401 of 517
11.1 GENERAL
In general, Emergency Shutdowns (ESD) causes the affected equipment to be blocked

in and isolated from other systems, or process areas, where upset conditions have not
occurred. ESD system is designed to implement safe and dependable emergency
shutdown of the process and utility systems, and their associated equipment in order
to prevent the development of a hazardous condition, which may be caused by a
process upset or by an external event. The operator can manually initiate emergency
shutdown when required or in response to external events such as fire and gas
detection.
The ESD System is designed to achieve the following objectives listed in order of
priority:
Protection of personnel (highest priority)

Protection of equipment
Protection of the environment
Continuity of production (by minimizing spurious shutdowns)

The ESD system in SRU Upgrade is divided into five shutdown levels:
1. ESD Level 0 Shutdown- Total Plant Shutdown with depressurization.

2. ESD Level 1 Shutdown - Shutdown with Depressurization to safe level.
3. ESD Level 2 Shutdown - Shutdown without depressurization (manual depressurization
is allowed).
4. ESD level 3-Process system/subsystem shutdown without depressurization.
5. ESD level 4-Individual equipment system shutdown without depressurization.
Emergency shutdown, which can occur in the unit, must be recognized and acted upon
immediately.
In case of activation of any one unit ESD, the activated ESD performs the other unit
shutdown, according to the sequence given in Cause & Effect Matrix & P&ID.
ESD Level 0 Shutdown
ESD level-0 shutdown is a total plant shutdown which includes a number of related
level 3 unit/sub unit/zones which can also be shutdown on an individual basis with
depressurization.
ESD level-1 shutdown includes a number of related level 3 unit/sub-unit/zones which

can also be shutdown on an individual basis with depressurization to safe level.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 402 of 517
ESD level-2 shutdown includes a number of related level 3 unit/sub-unit/zones which

can also be shutdown on an individual basis without depressurization, but permissive
for manual depressurization is available.
This level of shutdown is without depressurization, which normally protects a

complete process unit. A system or subsystem shutdown typically comprise of a
process system, such as TGTU or a RGG package.
This is the lowest level of shutdown, without depressurization and involves shutdown
of an individual piece of equipment or a zone, which is immediately affected by an
upset condition, but not affecting other equipment or zones.

Main motor winding temperatures high-high

Emergency stop at LCP (68-HS-1401)
11.4 UTILITY FAILURE
While every emergency situation must be handled individually, depending upon the
existing conditions when the emergency originates. The following recommended
procedures provide sequences of major steps which must be taken for the most likely
emergency situations.
The extent to which the plant has to be shut down depends on the specific emergency.
In any emergency, determine the extent of the emergency condition, and decide how
to cope with it. Then proceed with one of the following actions as warranted by the
emergency:
Handle the emergency as a localized condition without shutting down the rest of
the plant. For example, in case of a faulty control valve. Block in and bypass the
malfunctioning item until repairs can be made.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 451 of 517
Shut down the unit using the normal shutdown procedure described in Section
10.2.
Shut down the unit using the emergency procedures given below for a specific
emergency.
11.4.1 LP Steam Failure
Consequence
Generally, steam failure is for long duration. Due to loss of LP steam, the stripping of
the amine solution in Amine Regenerator, Reducing Gas Generator, BFW Preheater
9101-E-08, Sulphur Degassing Pit 9101-T-01B, Sour Water Stripper Reboiler and Steam
tracing of fuel gas lines are affected. The lack of steam to AGEU Regenerator Reboiler
produce off spec gas to Sulphur Recovery Unit, it affects the sulphur quality which is
produced by Sulphur Recovery Unit. So, the off spec gas is lined up to acid gas flare.
When the temperature reaches below Sulphur melting temperature, solid formation
occurs inside Sulphur transfer lines. Hence, the SRU unit shutdown is necessary until
steam flow reaches normal flow of plant running.
Action
Shutdown AGEU, SRU and TGTU unit due as the LP steam is not available for
Reboilers, Preheating and heat tracing.
Isolate sulphur transfer lines and drain all the sulphur to collection area.
11.4.2 Sea Cooling Water Failure
Consequence
In the event of Sea Cooling Water failure, there is no cooling water supply to
coolers and condensers.
AGEU Acid Gas Coolers 9103-E-101A/B, Regenerator Condenser Trim Cooler

9103-E-16, Lean Amine Trim Cooler 9103-E-15, Contact Condenser Trim Cooler
9102-E-13A/B process gas/liquid temperature rises.
Action
Shutdown the AGEU and TGTU unit by initiating ESD level-1 shutdown.
If Sulphur Recovery Unit upstream unit shutdown duration is short-time <24 hrs
there is no need to take shutdown of Claus sulphur recovery and Incinerator units.
Maintain the Reaction Furnace temperature and maintain the Incinerator
temperature with the help of fuel gas firing.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 452 of 517
11.4.3 Instrument Air Failure
Consequence
In case, the instrument air supply to SRU upgrade is stopped, all the control valves
position is kept on fail safe position as per the position indicated in P&ID. If the
instrument air is not immediately restored, the SRU Upgrade units must be shut down.
Action
Shut down the AGEU, SRU, TGTU and Incinerator units as instrument air supply to SRU
is not available for operating control valves and ESD valves.
11.4.4 Power Failure
In case of power failure, all pumps and compressors are stopped due to loss of power.
Only UPS power is available for DCS, F&G panel and emergency light. Generally, the
power failure affects all the units.
Consequence
The plant has to be shut down as:
Power failure trips all the pumps, blowers, compressors and air cooler fans.
Action
Shut down all the units of SRU Upgrade facilities due to unavailability of feed for
running the plant.
11.4.5 Boiler Feed Water Failure
In the general boiler feed water failure, all the Steam Generators, SRU Reaction
Furnace Boiler, Reaction Furnace Condensers, 1st Stage Condenser and Reaction
Effluent Cooler in TGTU initiates shutdown to respective unit, due to loss of boiler
feed water.
Consequence
The plant has to be shut down as:
SRU Upgrade Reaction Furnace Boiler & Last condenser and TGTU unit Reactor Effluent
Cooler tubes will be damaged due to loss of boiler feed water.
Action
Shutdown the AGEU, SRU and TGTU units as the boiler feed water is not available for
recovering heat from the above equipment.
11.4.6 Fuel Gas Failure
Consequence
Steam Generation from the Boilers is affected
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 453 of 517
Complete burning of Sulphur and hydrocarbon compound are not possible when
Incinerator temperature is less than normal operating temperature.
Hydrogenation reaction rate is reduced due to low temperature in RGG.
Action
Shutdown AGEU, SRU, TGTU and Incinerator units of SRU units as fuel gas is not
available.

SECTION XII MAINTENANCE

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 455 of 517
12.1 GENERAL
Maintenance is an activity which helps to keep the plant and equipments in running
condition for a longer period of time. It is the work performed on an equipment,
vessel, column or piping to preserve it in as near to its original condition as is practical
and to realize its normal life expectancy.
Types of Maintenance
Maintenance is classified as below:
a. Preventive maintenance (PM)
Preventive maintenance is a routine maintenance (cleaning, inspection, oiling and re-

tightening) design to retain the healthy condition of equipment and prevent failure
through the prevention of deterioration, periodic inspection or equipment condition
diagnosis, to measure deterioration.
Preventive maintenance (PM) is the practice of maintaining equipment on a regular

schedule, based on elapsed time, run-time meter readings, or number of operations.
The intent of PM is to prevent maintenance problems or failures before they take
place by following routine and comprehensive maintenance procedures. The goal is to
achieve fewer, shorter, and more predictable outages.
b. Shutdown Maintenance
Shutdown maintenance consists of those activities that can be carried out only during
the shutdown of the plant/equipments. In order to ensure that a process plant
continues to run at peak efficiency, it is prudent to do shutdown maintenance for huge
sections of the plant at specific intervals. During this shutdown period, the plant is
stopped, cleaning and repairing of equipments is carried out and then the plant is
started back. The plant has to be carefully and safely shutdown for this activity. For
handing over to maintenance the plant has to be depressurised, drained of liquids,
purged with nitrogen, steaming out is carried out if necessary, chemicals disposed of
safely. Refer sectionX for safe shutdown and handing over of the plant for
maintenance.
12.2 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
12.2.1 Process
Regular inspection and maintenance of the rotary equipment pays rich dividends.
Potentially hazardous situations can be avoided and costly delays in production can be
minimized. QP standard maintenance schedules and procedures shall be followed for
the regular maintenance of the mechanical equipment (blowers, pumps, etc.)
electrical equipment and instruments. Refer to the vendor O & M manuals for detailed
maintenance procedures of package equipment (Instrument Air Compressors, Electrical
Equipment, etc.).

12.4 CATALYST LOADING & SPECIAL PROCEDURES
Catalyst loading has to be carried out for the following reactors:
1. SRU 1st Stage & 2nd Stage Converters
2. Hydrogenation Reactor
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 486 of 517
12.4.1 SRU 1st Stage & 2nd Stage Converters/Hydrogenation Reactor
a. Catalyst loading
This operation is carried out taking precautions highlighted hereafter:
Note: The catalyst is a sophisticated product and should be handled carefully,
avoiding any hazardous loss.
Before loading, it is recommended to check that all reactors are dry, clean and
that all internals are in the proper place and installed as recommended in the
various drawings and process data sheets
Covers must be installed at the top of each reactor on temporary structures to
protect against rain
Loading of catalyst shall not be done during a period of rain or of great level of
humidity
b. Preliminary operations
When the reaction section drying out is complete and nitrogen has been replaced
by air, the reactors can be opened for inspection of the internals. All damaged
internal parts must be replaced or repaired
If needed, the reactors will be brushed and vacuum cleaned before catalyst
loading starts
Catalyst loading will be interrupted in case of rain or snow, or efficient protection
must be set in place
c. Equipment and personnel
The list below is based on the following assumption: catalyst loading will be carried
out with one crane.
One telescopic crane capable of lifting about 3 tons, 5 meters above the reactor
upper manhole (see Fig. 33)
One forklift to handle the catalyst drum pallets
Stationary hopper equipped with 8 to 10" nozzles to be installed on the reactor
upper manhole (see Fig. 38)
Two mobile hoppers, each having a capacity of about 5 to 6 catalyst drums (see
Fig. 37)
One structure (scaffolding and timbers) to unload the drums into the mobile
hoppers (see Fig. 35)
One safety harness, rope ladders, portable oxygen analyzer, low voltage lighting,
dust masks, air masks, goggles, plastic sheets to protect drums and reactor in case
of rain
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 487 of 517
To serve the above mentioned equipment the following personnel is necessary:

One foreman
One crane operator

One fork lift operator
One team of 4 riggers at ground level for catalyst handling and loading into
the mobile hoppers
One team of 6 fitters for vessels opening closing and for catalyst loading,
One sock loading operator inside the reactor.
Note: These personnel shall be permanently present during the loading operation. The
total number of personnel will be obtained by multiplying by the number of shifts, if
the loading takes place on 24 hours basis.

d. Catalyst loading procedure
Check that the quality of the catalyst and the amount available are as specified.
The following guideline for the reactor loading assumes a single catalyst bed. It
also assumes that the internals have been, first inspected in position and then
dismantled to speed up the loading process. When there is only one catalyst bed,
internals (except the bottom collector) would be installed and inspected after the
catalyst loading.
Refer to the loading drawing for the various heights of catalyst and alumina layers
etc., and to the detail drawings for the installation of the internals. Inside the
reactor measures will be taken from the welding line. Manufacturer's vessels
measurements are generally shown from tangent lines.
Make the necessary adjustment. Materialize the various levels with chalk marks on
the reactor wall.
Before loading catalyst ensure that operators have available wooden boards upon
which to stand when inside the reactor, to spread their weight and avoid crushing
of catalyst with the feet. Ensure also that the boards are counted into the reactor
and from time to time during loading and as they are taken out of the reactor.
Boards left in the reactor will interfere with pressure drop and flow distribution.
The reactor to be loaded should be placed under a reverse air flow to remove any
dust generated during the loading process, out of the reactor. Ideally, the dust
should be collected in bag filters installed at the outlet man-way.
Lift down the required volume of inert support balls, or active supports as
appropriate, and build up the bottom layer. Carefully level the surface, before
loading catalyst
Start loading the catalyst bed according to the loading diagram. The person
inside the reactor shall build a level of catalyst as uniformly as possible
During the catalyst loading a sample shall be taken in each drum/big bag in
order to prepare a composite sample of the reactor load.
when the upper level of the catalyst bed is reached stop loading the catalyst
and carefully level the surface
Add the layer of or hold down balls on top of the active catalyst if
required.
Note: Vendor does recommend loading inert ceramic balls to hold down the active
catalyst if no deflector is installed in the vessel, and/or if the active catalyst bed
height is lower than 90 cm.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 497 of 517
If deflector is installed and if the catalyst bed height is comprised in between 0.9 and
1 m, Vendor advises to load ceramic balls, when the height difference in between the
deflector and the top of the active catalyst is lower than 1 m.
According to what Vendor commonly sees, hold down ceramic balls can be avoided if a
deflector is installed and if the active catalyst bed height is larger than 1 m. Loading
hold down balls may also be avoided if a deflector is installed and if the active catalyst
bed height is comprised in between 0.9 and 1m, providing that the height difference in
between the deflector and the top of the active catalyst is larger than 1 m.
Install the inlet distributor and the top flange
A loading report must be carefully filled with:
Number of drums or big bags loaded in each layer
Catalyst batch and drum/big bag reference numbers
The loading density is checked at the end of the loading.
e. Leak test
After closure of the reactor and prior to catalyst activation, leak tests will be
conducted.
f. Catalyst Handling
The SRU first and second Claus converters are part filled with alumina and titanium
dioxide catalysts, the titanium dioxide catalyst being located in the bottom of the
converter with the alumina on top. The titanium dioxide catalyst is supported on the
ceramic balls support material.
The TGTU hydrogenation reactor contains a special CoMo catalyst which is supported
on ceramic balls support material. A layer of ceramic balls material is also located on
the top of the catalyst to protect the catalyst from refractory dust and debris that
may be carried forward from the upstream SRU.
All catalysts and ceramic ball support material will be delivered to site in either one
tonne big bags or 220 litre drums. Until the time of loading into a converter/reactor
all catalyst should be kept in a covered heated warehouse to ensure no contamination
from rain, sand, dust or low temperature damage can occur.
12.4.2 Catalyst Activity & Life Expectancy
a. SRU Converters
Provided the acid feed gases being processed in the SRU compositions are near to
design then the converters catalysts can be expected to operate satisfactorily for a
minimum of three years before replacement is necessary.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 498 of 517
Catalyst life can be prolonged by maintaining a low hydrocarbon content in the acid
gas feed, by preventing carryover of amine solutions to the SRU, by ensuring that
ammonia salts are not being formed in the process, by avoiding emergency shutdown
conditions during which the catalyst beds may be exposed to high temperatures caused
by burning sulphur, and by operating care to avoid water condensation on the catalyst.
The first catalyst bed generally accounts for most of the conversion. Therefore, the
life expectancy of the second bed will almost always exceed that of the first. A shift
of the primary activity from the first to second bed is a reliable indication that the
first bed requires attention.
The best measure of a SRU converters catalyst activity is the percentage of H2S
conversion to sulphur obtained in normal operation. This activity will decrease over a
period of time, depending on the quality of acid gas feed used and the care with which
the SRU is operated. Normally a loss of activity will be seen in the first converter with
the point of reaction and temperature increase, moving down the catalyst bed. The
activity of the catalyst is observed by watching the temperature change across the
converter bed. Good activity is observed when a significant temperature increase is
seen in the top/upper portion of the catalyst bed. Record the bed temperature
differentials at the initial start-up, during, and at the end of a run as a reference for
operation of the unit. A permanent decrease in temperature differential usually
indicates catalyst deactivation. Normally, this is an accumulation of carbon, sulphates,
or other contaminants on the bed. An indication of sulphate formation in the catalyst
is by the increased concentrations of COS, CS2 and CO in the treated gas from the
upstream amine absorbers. Some catalyst activity may be restored by carrying out the
catalyst management procedures.
Since catalyst life expectancy cannot be predicted accurately in advance for any given
SRU, it is a good practice to maintain a full replacement supply of catalyst for the
converters of one SRU in the refinery warehouse, or be able to acquire the catalyst
quickly from the catalyst supplier should a replacement charge of catalyst be
required.
After sufficient data has been accumulated on the catalysts conversion performance,
it is generally advisable to replace all or part of the catalyst on a regular time
schedule.
b. TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor

Under normal operations this catalyst is expected to maintain its activity for a
minimum of six years.
A hydrogen gas concentration of >1.5% is required to ensure conversion of the sulphur

compounds in reactors feed gases to hydrogen sulphide. Catalyst life will be prolonged
if a hydrogen concentration of approximately 3% is recorded by the amine absorber
vent gas outlet analyser.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 499 of 517
Similarly to the SRU converters catalysts the TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst
activity is observed by watching the temperature change across the reactor bed. Good
activity is observed when a significant temperature change occurs in the top/upper
portion of the catalyst bed. Also records of the catalyst bed temperature differentials
should be taken at the initial start-up, during, and at the end of a run as a reference
for operation of the unit.
Although the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst is not likely to be fouled and deactivated
by contaminants as the SRU converters catalysts may be it is advised to maintain a full
replacement supply of catalyst for one TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor in the refinery
warehouse or be able to acquire the catalyst quickly from the catalyst supplier should
a replacement charge of catalyst be required. Some catalyst activity may be restored
by carrying out the catalyst management procedures.
12.4.3 Catalyst Preparation
When preparing to inspect and/or replace a SRU or TGTU reactors catalyst the
SRU/TGTU must first follow the normal shutdown and sulphur stripping and
regeneration procedures.
Following the shutdown of the unit no vessel should be entered until it has been
cooled and all process gas utility streams to the SRU/TGTU have been isolated. Prior
to entry to a converter/reactor the vessel must be tested to determine if it is free of
noxious gases. Even when a satisfactory oxygen reading is recorded in the vessel it is
advised that persons entering the vessel should be supplied with an air mask and a
safety belt and that a safety attendant/standby person is continually stationed outside
the vessel to monitor the person(s) in the vessel.
a. Catalyst Sampling
When a SRU converter or the TGTU hydrogenation reactor is first opened it is advised
that samples of the catalysts are taken and sent to the catalyst supplier for analysis.
Samples should be taken from various levels in the beds.
b. Catalyst Inspection
The inspection of the catalyst will determine if part, or the complete, catalyst bed is
to be replaced because of catalyst contamination, fusion with other products, loss of
granular size or evidence of reduced activity.
c. Catalyst Replacement
Catalyst replacement alternatives are described in the following sub-sections:
d. Top Layer Replacement

If the deactivation of the catalyst is caused by fusion or some condition affecting only
the top layer, carefully remove this layer, rake and smooth the top of the remaining
catalyst bed and replace with new catalyst to the design bed depth.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 500 of 517
e. Full Bed Replacement with Old and New Catalyst

If the contamination and deterioration extends deeper into the catalyst bed it is
advised to remove and screen the remainder of the catalyst and then recharge the
usable portion.
If the entire catalyst bed is to be removed proceed as follows:
If installed, carefully remove any top layer of ceramic balls followed by the catalyst
and catalyst support layer ceramic balls.
Screen the ceramic balls.
Examine the process gas outlet pipe and screens.
Replace the catalyst support ceramic balls in the bottom of the vessel.
Screen the catalyst that was removed, discard the fines and reserve the usable portion.
Add enough new catalyst to compensate for the amount discarded and spread this in
an even layer over the catalyst support ceramic balls.
Add the screened used catalyst to bring the bed to full depth.
If required add the top layer of ceramic balls.
f. Full Bed Replacement with New Catalyst

If inspection shows the whole catalyst bed is of questionable value, replace all the old
catalyst with new. Follow the applicable steps for a full bed replacement above.
Inspect the physical condition of the new catalyst to determine if screening is required
to remove fines. Do not screen unless necessary and avoid excessive handling.
g. Catalyst Unloading Methods

A gravity method or a vacuum method may be used to remove catalyst from a
converter/reactor. If the catalyst is to be reused then the gravity method is advised so
that a minimum of damage and the production of catalyst fines and dusts are produced
during the unloading operation.
Unloading is carried out through temporary chutes connected to the converter/reactor

side manways with the catalyst collected in clean dry drums or other suitable
containers. During the unloading process care should be taken to separate the ceramic
balls support material from the catalyst. For the SRU first and second converter care
will have to be taken to separate the titanium dioxide catalyst from the alumina
catalyst during the unloading operations.
If only the top section of catalyst in a converter has to be replaced then this layer is
normally removed by hand through the converters top manways; alternatively if care is
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 501 of 517
taken, then the catalyst may be removed through the converters top manways by
means of the vacuum method.
If the catalyst is not to be reused then vacuum method is advised as this method
minimises the unloading time and does not require the opening of the converters side
manways.
h. Catalyst Disposal
Regenerated alumina catalyst may be disposed of to a land fill site. Titanium dioxide
and hydrogenation catalysts should be disposed of via a catalyst reclamation company.
At the end of the life of each catalyst it is advised that the supplier is consulted
regarding its disposal.
12.4.4 Catalyst Management
a. SRU Reactor Catalyst

The alumina catalyst in the SRU converters consists of small spheres that have very
small pores. The H2S and SO2 gases enter into these pores and emerge as sulphur and
water vapour. Some sulphur in the liquid phase may collect in the catalyst and over a
period of time will lower the sulphur conversion efficiency making it necessary for the
catalyst beds to be given a rejuvenation or heat soak. A loss of catalyst activity is seen
by the temperature increase and start of the exothermic reaction moving further down
the converters catalyst beds.
To improve converters catalyst activity a rejuvenation of the catalyst is carried out with
the SRU and TGTU in normal operation processing acid feed gas. If no improvement in
conversion is seen, a sulphur stripping procedure will then be necessary.
A sulphur stripping procedure may also be required if the catalyst is contaminated by

carbon laydown from hydrocarbons carried in the units acid feed gas or because of
contamination by liquid carryover with the acid gas from the Amine Regenerator which
is so severe that a SRU shutdown is required and the converters opened to replace the
contaminated catalyst.
Prior to sulphur stripping, the catalyst beds and the SRU will contain potentially
hazardous and contaminating materials such as H2S, SO2, sulphur and other sulphurous
compounds. The object of the sulphur stripping exercise is to remove these
contaminants under controlled conditions.
At the conclusion of the sulphur stripping operations the catalyst should be clean and
the plant should be free of harmful gases and deposits.
A sulphur stripping operation will also be carried out before the plant is opened for
any maintenance work, where there is a possibility of air entering the system, which
could cause the ignition of any sulphurous compounds in the catalysts or process gas
stream side of the unit.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 502 of 517
Sulphur stripping is carried out with the SRU Reaction Furnace burner operating on
fuel gas only, initially at stoichiometric firing conditions.
Sulphur stripping should only be carried out for the requirements stated above, since
the operation can be potentially hazardous to both catalyst and equipment.
b. TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor Catalyst

Under normal operations this catalyst is expected to maintain its activity for many
years, much longer than the SRU catalysts.
A hydrogen gas concentration normally of >1.5% is advised to ensure efficient

conversion of the sulphur compounds in reactors feed gas to hydrogen sulphide.
Catalyst life will be prolonged if a hydrogen concentration of approximately 2-4% is
seen by the Tail Gas Amine Absorber outlet vent gas H2 analyser.
The activity of the catalyst is observed by watching the temperature change across the
reactor bed. Good activity is observed when a significant change occurs in the upper
portion of the bed. A decrease in activity will be seen by the point of start of
temperature increase moving down the catalyst bed. A permanent decrease in
temperature differential usually indicates catalyst deactivation. Normally, this is an
accumulation of carbon, sulphates or other contaminants on the catalyst bed.
Sulphation of the catalyst will be increased if concentrations of COS, CS2 and CO in
the acid feed gas increase.
Increasing the Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperature by a few degrees above

normal will help to restore some catalyst activity.
Oxidation of the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst will restore some activity. Oxidation
must be carried out prior to the TGTU being opened for maintenance and inspection.
Prior to unit restart the catalyst will require sulphiding.
12.4.5 SRU Converter Catalyst Rejuvenation:
A catalyst rejuvenation is carried out whilst the SRU and TGTU are in normal operation
processing acid gas.
The rejuvenation will proceed as follows:

Slowly increase the SRU converters auxiliary burners outlet temperatures as high as
possible above normal operating temperatures for the first auxiliary burner,
~260C, and to ~235C for the second auxiliary burner.
Hold these temperatures for 24 hours to allow any sulphur contained in the catalyst
pores to flow out of the pores.
After 24 hours, still holding the higher than normal auxiliary burners outlet
temperatures, go off ratio at the SRU Reaction Furnace to decrease the volume of
air to the reaction furnace burner to produce a H2S:SO2 ratio of approx. 5.0:1.0 in
the unit's tail gases as indicated by the tail gas analyser.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 503 of 517
Maintain this rich in H2S ratio for 24/36 hours.

Following this hold period return to normal operations with a tail gas H2S:SO2 ratio
of 4.0:1.0.
Reduce auxiliary burners outlet temperatures to their normal operating

temperatures of 230C and 210C.
If following a number of rejuvenation exercises, no temperature increase is seen
across the converters then a stripping exercise will have to be carried out in an
attempt to re-establish catalyst activity.
12.4.6 SRU Converter Catalyst Stripping
To carry out this exercise the TGTU is first taken out of service and the SRU tail gas
routed directly to the Incinerator.
The procedure for sulphur stripping the SRU converters catalyst may be broken down
into three sub-procedures:
Hot inert gas sweep

Sulphur stripping
Cool down
I. Hot Inert Gas Sweep
A hot inert gas sweep of the SRU converters catalyst will commence as soon as acid gas
feed to the Reaction Furnace burner has been stopped and the burner is operating only
on fuel gas at slightly sub-stoichiometric firing conditions with LP steam injection to
the fuel gas and process air lines to the Reaction Furnace burner.
During the hot inert gas sweep note the following:

Monitor the converters temperatures closely and increase the flow of fuel gas if an
unexpectedly high temperature, (indicating burning of sulphur compounds), is
seen in the converters catalyst beds.
Hold this hot inert gas sweep of the converters catalyst beds for a period that
includes four hours after the flow of sulphur is seen to cease from all condensers
sulphur seals, before proceeding with a sulphur stripping operation.
II. Sulphur Stripping
Sulphur stripping will commence immediately following the completion of the hot inert
gas sweep of the unit as described above.
Sulphur stripping will proceed as follows:

Confirm that the auxiliary burners outlet and converters catalyst bed
temperatures are at 230C and 210C.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 504 of 517
With process air and fuel gas controllers in manual operating mode, very slowly
increase process air flow to the Reaction Furnace burner by adjustments to
process air controller.
Maintain the auxiliary burners temperature outlet controllers in automatic
operating mode throughout the sulphur stripping operation set at their normal
operating temperatures of 230C and 210C.
Every few minutes increase process air flow in very small increments until there is
evidence of burning of sulphur compounds within the SRU. Note that the trim air
control valve may be used to allow a fine control of excess process air is achieved.
Observe all temperature points across the SRU.
The first sign of the burning of sulphur compounds in the SRU should be seen by a
temperature increase in the top layer of catalyst in the first converter. A
temperature increase may also be seen in the Reaction Furnace Condenser process
gas outlet or 1st Stage Condenser process gas outlet as sulphur compounds in these
sections commence burning.
Hold the process air flow at its present flow when a temperature front is seen in
the first converter.
Note the flows of fuel gas and process air.
Closely observe the converters catalyst bed temperatures, if temperatures
approach 400C, reduce the amount of process air to the Reaction Furnace
burner.
Note: Under no circumstances should converter catalyst temperatures exceed 425C
(or other temperature advised by the catalyst supplier).
In the event of a sudden increase in temperature in a converter catalyst bed,

immediately increase fuel gas flow to allow the fuel gas to consume any excess
oxygen and to stop the temperature rise. This action will ensure a flow of hot
combustion gas through the unit at a high flow rate to displace any pockets of gas
which contain high oxygen content.
Once the temperature front has passed through the first converter it will move
into the second converter. There may be some overlapping of temperature fronts
between the first and second converters due to the possibility of channelling of
gases through the first converter catalyst.
When the temperature front has moved through the second converter catalyst,
over a period of eight hours, gradually reduce the flow of fuel gas to the reaction
furnace burner leaving the process air flow unchanged to allow an excess of
oxygen to appear in the process gas stream.
Closely observe all temperature points across the unit for any secondary burning
of sulphur compounds. If secondary burning is seen, immediately increase fuel gas
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 505 of 517
flow to the reaction furnace burner to consume the excess oxygen in the process
gases and halt the temperature increase in the area of burning.
III. Cool Down
Cool down will commence immediately after sulphur stripping of the converters
catalyst is completed as follows:
Close MS steam control valve to the process air pre-heater.
Start increasing process air flow to the Reaction Furnace burner whilst holding fuel
gas flow constant. The Reaction Furnace temperature will slowly fall.
With process air at a fairly high flow, start lowering process temperatures by
reducing fuel gas flow to the Reaction Furnace burner.
Start reducing converters catalyst bed temperatures by reducing auxiliary burners

outlet temperatures at 50C/hr.
When <400C is seen in the Reaction Furnace, stop LP steam injection to the fuel
gas and combustion lines to the Reaction Furnace burner and manually isolate.
Also close LP steam to the acid gas bypass line to the reaction furnace.
Continue reducing fuel gas flow to the Reaction Furnace burner until the lowest
temperature possible is seen on the reaction furnace and converters temperature
indicators, ideally ~100C, then stop fuel gas flow to the Reaction Furnace burner.
Isolate fuel gas to the auxiliary burners.
Continue process air flow through the SRU to further cool the equipment to near
blower discharge/ambient temperature.
The SRU converter catalyst regeneration procedure is now complete.
12.4.7 TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor Catalyst Oxidation:
If the SRU and TGTU are to be opened for inspection and maintenance at the same
time then the sulphur stripping of the SRU converters and the oxidation of the TGTU
Hydrogenation Reactor may be carried out in the same operation. In this case the
oxidation of the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst would be carried out in series with
the sulphur stripping of the SRU converters catalyst as described in Section 12.4.7-I
If the TGTU is to be opened for inspection and maintenance independently of the SRU
then the TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor oxidation is carried out as a stand alone
procedure as described in Section 12.4.7-II
I. TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor Catalyst Oxidation (In series with the SRU
converters sulphur stripping operation):
Oxidation of the Hydrogenation Reactor in series with the sulphur stripping of the SRU
converters will proceed as follows:
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 506 of 517
Confirm that the RGG outlet/Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperature is at 290C

Open the Reactor Effluent Cooler 9102-E-11 outlet process gas valve to the
Incinerator and close the Reactor Effluent Cooler outlet valve to the Contact
Condenser to take the TGTU wet section out of service.
Proceed with the sulphur stripping of the SRU converters catalyst beds as
described in section 12.4.6.
When the second SRU converter catalyst bed sulphur stripping is complete, or near
complete the excess oxygen in the SRU process air that was used to sulphur strip
the SRU converters catalysts will pass through to the TGTU to commence the
oxidation of the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst. Note that there may be some
overlapping of sulphur stripping of the third SRU converter and the oxidation of
the Hydrogenation Reactor.
Closely observe the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst temperatures, if temperatures
approach 400C then reduce the amount of process air to the SRU Reaction
Furnace burner.
Note: Under no circumstances should the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst
temperatures exceed 425C (or other temperature advised by the catalyst
supplier).
When the catalyst oxidation is complete as seen by the temperature front having
passed through the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst bed the fuel gas flow to the
SRU Reaction Furnace burner is slowly decreased, leaving the process air flow
unchanged so allowing an excess of oxygen in the process gases passing through
the SRU converters and TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor.
Maintain close observation of all temperature points across the SRU converters and
the TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor for any secondary burning. If secondary burning
is seen then increase fuel gas flow to the SRU Reaction Furnace burner to consume
the excess oxygen in the process gases and halt the temperature increase in the
area of burning.
Following oxidation of the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst, the TGTU
hydrogenation section is cooled down with the SRU.
Reduce RGG outlet temperatures at approx. 50C/hr to cool the Hydrogenation
Reactor catalyst. Note that the RGG process air to fuel gas ratio may now be
adjusted so that the RGG burner is operating in excess air conditions.
When ~100C is seen in the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst, via the shutdown
switch, stop the RGG.
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 507 of 517
Nitrogen valve to the RGG combustion air line, open (valve will remain open
for ~15 minutes)
Nitrogen valve to the RGG instrument nozzles, open
Instrument air to the RGG instrument nozzles, closed

Combustion air valve, closed
Fuel gas, two valves closed and vent valve open
LP steam, closed
After a set time of ~15 minutes, confirm that the nitrogen purge valves to the RGG
combustion air line and to the RGG instrument nozzles have closed.
Close manual valves in the RGG combustion air, instrument air, fuel gas and LP
steam lines to the RGG.
The TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor may now be opened for inspection and maintenance.
Note: Complete oxidation of a TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst and the

elimination of all pyrophoric material in the reactor can sometimes be difficult to fully
carry out in a catalyst oxidation exercise. Care should therefore be taken when
opening a Hydrogenation Reactor as ignition of any pyrophoric material in pockets of
sulphided catalyst may result.
II. TGTU Hydrogenation Reactor Catalyst Oxidation (Independent of the SRU

converters sulphur stripping operation):
In the event that the TGTU is taken out of service independently of the SRU and has to
be opened for inspection and maintenance then all sulphur compounds in the
Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst must be first removed by regeneration of the catalyst.
This is achieved by recycling nitrogen gases around the RGG, Hydrogenation Reactor,
Reactor Effluent Cooler and the DCC tower by means of the start-up gas steam ejector
and by adjusting the amount of excess air to the RGG burner to burn off all sulphur
compounds on the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst. This procedure should be carried
out immediately after the TGTU is shutdown when the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst
is still near its normal operating temperature.
Regeneration of the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst may proceed as follows:
Shutdown the TGTU as described in Section 10.1.1 leaving the DCC top and bottom
circulating waters in service and a BFW level in the Reactor Effluent Cooler
Confirm that the SRU tail gas valve to the TGTU is closed
Confirm that the process gas valve from the Reactor Effluent Cooler to the DCC is
open
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 508 of 517
Close the DCC process gas outlet valve to the Tail Gas Amine Absorber
Open manual valve in gas recycle line from the DCC outlet process gas line to the
RGG inlet line
Set vent gas pressure control valve from the DCC vent gas outlet line to the
Incinerator at 0.25 barg
Introduce a flow of nitrogen into the RGG inlet line
Observe the start-up pressure control valve opening to control the excess nitrogen
gases to the Incinerator
Open start-up gas steam ejector process gas inlet and outlet manual valves
Open LP steam to the start-up gas steam ejector to start circulating nitrogen gases
around the TGTU BSR section. Nitrogen gases will flow through and around the
RGG, Hydrogenation Reactor, Reactor Effluent Cooler and DCC with excess gases
being vented to the Incinerator via the recycle gas pressure control valve.
Ignite the RGG burner on fuel gas at normal slightly sub-stoichiometric firing
conditions and set RGG outlet temperature controller set point at 250C.
Open LP steam shutdown valve to the RGG and introduce steam to the RGG fuel
gas line to suppress the formation of carbon and soot at stoichiometric firing
conditions. Set the steam flow in a ratio of 2:1 (by wt) to fuel gas.
Notes:
1. As the Hydrogenation Reactor now contains sulphur compounds the RGG burner
must be operated at its normal, slightly sub-soichiometric, firing conditions.
2. If the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst has cooled then slowly raise temperatures at
50C/hr to 250C.
Slowly adjust the RGG combustion air to fuel gas ratio controller to allow a small
excess of combustion air at the RGG burner.
Observe all temperature points across the Hydrogenation Reactor
The first sign of the burning of sulphur compounds in the Hydrogenation Reactor
should be seen by a temperature increase in the top layer of catalyst.
Hold the RGG excess combustion air conditions when a temperature front is seen
in the Hydrogenation Reactor. Note the flow of combustion air and fuel gas.
Closely observe the Hydrogenation Reactors catalyst temperatures, if
temperatures approach 400C, adjust the RGG combustion air to fuel gas ratio
controller to reduce the flow of combustion air to the RGG.
Note: Under no circumstances should catalyst temperatures exceed 425C (or other
temperature advised by the catalyst supplier).
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 509 of 517
In the event of a sudden increase in temperature in a reactor catalyst bed,

immediately adjust the RGG combustion air to fuel gas ratio controller to
stoichiometric firing conditions to stop excess air in the RGG combustion gases
Note: This action will ensure a flow of hot recycle gas through the Hydrogenation
Reactor at the start-up gas steam ejector flow rate to displace any pockets of gas in
the Hydrogenation Reactor which contain high oxygen content. In this case under no
circumstance should the start-up gas steam ejector be stopped.
When the temperature front has moved through the Hydrogenation Reactor
catalyst, over a period of approx. two hours, gradually adjust the RGG combustion
air to fuel gas ratio controller to increase excess air flow and an excess of oxygen
to appear in the recycle process gas stream.
Closely observe all temperature points across the Hydrogenation Reactor for any
secondary burning of sulphur compounds. If secondary burning is seen,
immediately reset the RGG combustion air to fuel gas ratio controller to reduce
excess combustion air flow to the RGG to reduce the excess oxygen in the recycle
gas and halt the temperature increase in the area of burning within the
Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst bed.
Proceed to cool down the Hydrogenation Reactor as follows:
Start reducing the RGG outlet temperature controller set point at 50C/hr to cool
the Hydrogenation Reactor
Slowly adjust the RGG combustion air to fuel gas ratio controller to increase
excess combustion air flow to the RGG
When the RGG outlet temperature is 200C, close LP steam to the RGG fuel gas
line
Continue reducing RGG outlet temperature controller set point until ~100C is
seen in the hydrogenation reactor catalyst bed
Stop fuel gas to the RGG burner leaving combustion air flow to cool the
Hydrogenation Reactor to combustion air temperature
Close nitrogen to the RGG process gas inlet line
Activate the RGG shutdown switch to close all shutdown valves

Nitrogen valve to the RGG combustion air line, open (valve will remain open
for ~15 minutes)
Nitrogen valve to the RGG instrument nozzles, open
Instrument air to the RGG instrument nozzles, closed

Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 510 of 517
Combustion air valve, closed

Fuel gas, two valves closed and vent valve open
LP steam, closed
Close LP steam to the start-up gas steam ejector
Close process gas inlet valve to and outlet valve from the start-up steam gas
ejector
Close BSR section start-up vent gas pressure control valve and manual valve
Observe the Reactor Effluent Cooler steam generator steam side pressure after
unit shutdown. When pressure has decreased to <1.0 barg on the steam side of the
vessel, open atmospheric vent to prevent a vacuum being formed in the vessel.
The TGTU hydrogenation reactor catalyst regeneration procedure is now complete.
Note: Complete oxidation of a TGTU hydrogenation reactor catalyst and the

elimination of all pyrophoric material in the reactor can sometimes be difficult to fully
carry out in a catalyst oxidation exercise. Care should therefore be taken when
opening a hydrogenation reactor as ignition of any pyrophoric material and pockets of
sulphided catalyst may result.
12.4.8 Hydrogenation Reactor Sulphiding in Series with the SRU
The following text is a guide only to the sulphiding of the hydrogenation reactor
catalyst. The catalyst manufacturer/supplier should advise the catalyst temperature
required at the start of sulphiding operations and the rate of temperature increase
and any temperature hold periods etc. during the operation.
Prior to the start of sulphiding operations, the SRU reaction furnace burner and the
RGG burner will be operating on fuel gas, and SRU tail gases will be routed through the
TGTU BSR section. TGTU process gases will be routed to the Incinerator from the
outlet of the Reactor Effluent Cooler and will be valve isolated to the contact
condenser.
Sulphiding operations will proceed as follows:
Confirm that the SRU Reaction Furnace burner is operating on fuel gas at slightly
sub-stoichiometric firing conditions.
Confirm that the RGG burner is operating on fuel gas at slightly sub-stoichiometric
firing conditions.
Confirm that the Hydrogenation Reactor catalyst bed is fully heated through to a
temperature of 200C.
Using the acid gas sulphiding line from the Regenerator Reflux Drum 9103-V-12 to
the Hydrogenation Reactor inlet line, slowly open manual valve at the
Doc. No.: 2970-0-22-0001 Page: 511 of 517
Hydrogenation Reactor to introduce a small flow of H2S acid gas into the
Hydrogenation Reactor. Aim initially for 1% - 2% vol. of H2S in process gases.
Notes:
1. The intention is to aim initially for a 1% - 2% vol. of H2S in process gases.
2. The reaction of H2S in the Hydrogenation Reactors catalyst is exothermic. For

every 1% vol. of H2S entering the reactor a catalyst temperature increase of
approximately 15C can be expected.
Slowly increase Hydrogenation Reactor inlet temperatures at a rate of

approximately 15C/hr to 290C whilst keeping the catalyst bed delta
temperature <25C.
If the exothermic reactions produce a catalyst bed delta temperature >25C
then reduce the flow of H2S acid gas into the Hydrogenation Reactor.
Note: Under no circumstances should catalyst temperatures be allowed to exceed
425C as damage to the catalyst and equipment will occur.
As soon as acid gases are introduced into the Hydrogenation Reactor inlet line
start sampling the reactors inlet and outlet process gas
Note: A hand-held Drager tube type sampling system is suggested where an immediate
read out of H2S concentration in % or ppm can be seen.
At one hour intervals, continue sampling the reactor outlet gas until the H2S
concentration in process gases are stable; then increase the RGG outlet
temperature at 25C/hr to 390C, or other advised temperature.
Note: Closely observe all temperature points across the Hydrogenation Reactor. If
temperatures approach 400C reduce and/or temporarily stop acid gas flow to the
reactor. Under no circumstances should the reactor catalyst exceed 425C as damage
to the catalyst will occur.
Hold the reactor catalyst bed temperature at 390C with the H2S rich acid gas flow
passing through the reactor for a minimum of 4 hours to ensure the catalyst is
fully sulphided.
Following the 4 hours hold period, stop the flow of the H2S rich acid gas to the
inlet of the Hydrogenation Reactor.
Via the double block valves vent point valve, nitrogen purge the acid gas
sulphiding line to the Hydrogenation Reactor and then back to the SRU acid gas
feed line; then valve and blind isolate the line.
Reduce reactor inlet temperature to 240C
Sulphiding of the hydrogenation reactor is now complete and amine acid feed gas may
be introduced to the SRU.
