Gas plants, liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities, petrochemical facilities, and oil and gas production facilities can all benefit from depressurizing systems.

In this newsletter, Neil Prophet outlines an effective methodology for determining the need for a depressuring system and also highlights some of the issues to be aware of while designing such a system. He’ll cover:

  • Depressuring Criteria
  • Depressuring Decision Methodology
  • Calculating Allowable Stress
  • Selecting Mitigation Option

Bonus!

This newsletter also includes a 34-minute video showing the results of a consequence modeling study of the 2012 Reynosa Gas Explosion incident using Process Safety Office® SuperChems™ software.

A thorough overpressure protection strategy should consider all possible measures for overpressure protection and should not rely on relief devices and rupture disks as the sole means of defense.

Have a great and safe day.
