Process troubleshooting suggestion

Process troubleshooting suggestion
1. I propose to have a separate forum named process trouble shooting that cover all questions of process engineers working in oil, gas and petrochemical industries where the forum colleges can help with their experience and thoughts or ideas to solve each required case.
2. Troubleshooting is one of process engineers tasks that need experience so, sharing other experience will add value to the entire forum colleges and make it more interactive.
3. I know that if one process engineer has troubleshooting case he cannot share it because of his company privacy reasons but this can be solved if the troubleshooting case raised without any details related to the company or organization name.
4. The current trouble shooting cases are currently mentioned in oil and gas forum or in petrochemical forum treated and if it was in one place all process engineers can see it and give their feedback or advice.
5. I ask all the colleges how support this idea and have the willing to help to reply with their comment and the esteemed Egyptian pet. Administrators to advice with their feedback.
Best regards

I agree, There should be a seprate Process Troubleshooting section. But try to include CPI also in addition to oil/gas

I think that if we create this forum now it will not be very active and will not have many participation
so i think we can wait after many members participate with us & sharing his experience with Troubleshooting he face

2. Troubleshooting is one of process engineers tasks that need experience so, sharing other experience will add value to the entire forum colleges and make it more interactive.

I completely agree with you and i will start sharing some of problems i face in my work , i will publish it as new threads and also i will blog it

it looks a great idea to share issues we face on daily basis

I agree with aseptman because CPI have a wide space to chemical engineer for share experiences, like Phosphates for FERTILIZERS and DETERGENTS

[oilhunter]

is this has been done?? where can i post

[aseptman]

Let us have a process troubleshooting thread just to try

[oilhunter]

Ok let me start and see if someone can share their point of view. Here is the scenario

A 30km trunk line 30" diameter from offshore to onshore it is a 3 phase product (oil,water,gas). Product goes to slug catcher (vessel type) and gas to scrubber before going to suction of Booster compressor (only to stage) about 1.5km away from gathering station. Now the problem is everytime they carried out pigging they are lossing the gas and said that due to slugging compressor is getting operational upset and started recycling.

Can somebody tell me some solution to avoild compressor upset (not to re cycle mode) if you need more info just reply

The root cause of the problem what i think may be during pigging is loss in the suction pressure which is of course due to reduced gas at that moment of time.
As such a senario the compressor Anti surge valve will open to componsate the deficient flow.
If you had some other perciption pls. elaborate .
