    1.1.2 Companys History:L&T was founded in Bombay (Mumbai) in 1938 by two Danish engineers, Henning

    Holck-Larsen and Soren Kristian Toubro. Both of them were strongly committed

    to developing India's engineering capabilities to meet the demands of industry.

    Figure 1 Founders

    Henning Holck-Larsen and Soren Kristian Toubro, school-mates in Denmark, would

    not have dreamt, as they were learning about India in history classes that they would,

    one day, create history in that land.

    In 1938, the two friends decided to forgo the comforts of working in Europe, and

    started their own operation in India. All they had was a dream. And the courage to

    dare.

    Their first office in Mumbai (Bombay) was so small that only one of the partners

    could use the office at a time!

    In the early years, they represented Danish manufacturers of dairy equipment for a

    modest retainer. But with the start of the Second World War in 1939, imports were

    restricted, compelling them to start a small work-shop to undertake jobs and provide

    service facilities.

    Germany's invasion of Denmark in 1940 stopped supplies of Danish products. Thiscrisis forced the partners to stand on their own feet and innovate. They started

    manufacturing dairy equipment indigenously. These products proved to be a success,

    and L&T came to be recognized as a reliable fabricator with high standards.

    The war-time need to repair and refit ships offered L&T an opportunity, and led to

    the formation of a new company, Hilda Ltd., to handle these operations. L&T alsostarted two repair and fabrication shops - the Company had begun to expand.

    1.2About Project1.2.1 Background

    Crude oil, also called petroleum, is a complex mixture of carbon and hydrogen

    (hydrocarbons), which exist as a liquid in the earth's crust.

    Crude oil and associated gas produced from ONGCs Mumbai high and satellite fields

    are transported to their Uran onshore facilities through sub-sea pipelines for further

    processing.

    Crude oil and gas are brought to Uran from Mumbai High and satellite fields of

    western offshore through two sets of trunk lines MUT lines and through HUT lines.

    The offshore gas from 28inch MUT line and 26 inch HUT line is received at slug

    catchers where condensate, formed within the pipelines during transportation, gets

    separated.The condensate free gas is routed to Gas Sweetening Unit (GSUs) which presently

    consist of two trains for removal of CO2 and H2S gas as acid gas.

    The remaining gas beyond the processing capacity of GSUs is directly sent to

    consumers along the lean gas coming from the plant.

    After removal of CO2 and H2S, the treated gas (sweet gas) is routed to LPG recovery

    units for extraction of value added products like LPG, Naptha and Ethane-Propane.

    The condensate received at slug catchers and that generated in the plant is routed to

    existing Condensate Fractionating Units (CFUs) for removal of lighter hydrocarbon

    and further extraction of LPG and Naptha.

    Gas Sweetening Unit (GSUs)

    1. It is designed to separate acid gas component such as CO2 and H2S from Sourgas. The separation achieved with the help of Amine solution in an Absorber

    column.

    2. The purpose of the Sulfinol solvent regenerator is to remove H2S, CO2, COSand RSH from the rich solvent and return solvent to the absorber system with

    low enough residual CO2 and H2S to allow these system to meet their treating

    requirements.

    3. Acid Gas from the Regenerator is transferred to the Acid gas stack.

    trunk lines.

    Condensate Fractionating Units (CFUs)

    It is used to remove light ends and to recover LPG and Naptha from Pipeline

    Condensates.

    The new CFU will operate in parallel with existing CFU and it will consists of

    Condensate Receiving System, Stripper, LPG Column & Off Gas

    Compression Section.

    The utility section of the unit comprises of cooling water, instrument air, Plantair, Nitrogen, Service water besides blow down system, flare system and

    condensate recovery system.

    LPG Recovery Unit (LPUs)

    1. It is designed to recover maximum LPG from sweetened gas coming from gasSweetening units and produce value added products viz. LPG, NGL & Lean

    gas.

    2.

    LPG recovery unit consists of feed gas compression and pre-cooling, Feed Gasdrying and regeneration, Chill down and expansion, Lean gas compression,

    Propane refrigeration system and Fractionating system.

    1.2.2 Objectives1. Our objective is to design a piping for columns in LPG Recovery Unit where LPG

    and Naptha are produced from sweet gas.

    2. In reference to the figure below, gases extracted from sea bed are sent to theCondensate Handling Unit (CHUs) condensate trapped in gas is further extracted andthe remaining gas is send to Gas Sweetening Unit (GSUs), from where it goes further

    to LPG Recovery Unit to extract LPG and Naptha from it.

    3. Whereas the condensate from CHUs after getting filtered moves to the CondensateFractionating Unit (CFUs), from where it again forms LPG and Naptha.

    4. Finally LPG and Naptha are stored in their storage tanks respectively.

    CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE OVERVIEW

    2.1 Refinery Process

    An oil refinery or petroleum refinery is an industrial process plant where crude oil is

    processed and refined into more useful petroleum products, such as naphtha, gasoline,

    diesel fuel, asphalt base, heating oil, kerosene, and liquefied petroleum gas.

    Oil refineries are typically large, sprawling industrial complexes with extensive

    piping running throughout, carrying streams of fluids between large chemical

    processing units.

    Common process units found in a refinery:

    1. Desalter unit washes out salt from the crude oil before it enters theatmospheric distillation unit.

    2. Atmospheric distillation unit distills crude oil into fractions.3. Vacuum distillation unit further distills residual bottoms after atmospheric

    distillation.

    4. Catalytic reformer unit is used to convert the naphtha-boiling rangemolecules into higher octane reformate (reformer product).

    5. Fluid catalytic cracker (FCC) unit upgrades heavier fractions into lighter,more valuable products.

    6. Hydrocracker unit uses hydrogen to upgrade heavier fractions into lighter,more valuable products.

    7.

    Alkylation unit produces high-octane component for gasoline blending.8. Isomerization unit converts linear molecules to higher-octane branchedmolecules for blending into gasoline or feed to alkylation units.

    9. Steam reforming unit produces hydrogen for the hydro treaters orhydrocracker.

    10.Slug catcher used when product (crude oil and gas) that comes from apipeline with two-phase flow, has to be buffered at the entry of the units.

    11.Solvent dewaxing units remove the heavy waxy constituents petrolatum fromvacuum distillation products.

    12.Solvent refining units use solvent such as cresol or furfural to removeunwanted, mainly aromatics from lubricating oil stock or diesel stock.

    13.Utility units such as cooling towers circulate cooling water, boiler plantsgenerates steam, and instrument air systems include pneumatically operatedcontrol valves and an electrical substation.

    14.Storage tanks store crude oil and finished products, usually cylindrical, withsome sort of vapor emission control and surrounded by an earthen berm to

    contain spills.

    15.Alternative processes for removing mercaptans are known, e.g. doctorsweetening process and caustic washing.

    2.2 Process Flow Diagrams (PFDs)

    A Process Flow Diagram - PFD - (or System Flow Diagram - SFD) shows therelationships between the major components in the system.

    A PFD does not show minor components, piping systems, piping ratings and

    designations.A PFD should include:

    1. Process Piping2. Major equipment symbols, names and identification numbers3. Control, valves and valves that affect operation of the system4. Interconnection with other systems5. Major bypass and recirculation lines6. System ratings and operational values as minimum, normal and maximum

    flow, temperature and pressure

    7. Composition of fluidsFunction of the Flow Diagram:

    1. Ideas and thoughts as to the physical system of an industrial process start outin somebodys head (typically an engineer or technician/designer)

    2. These are transferred to paper, chalkboards or dry erase boards as sketchesand verbal descriptions

    3. Once the initial bugs are worked out of the process sketch, then a drafterconverts the sketches into a flow diagram

    4. This drawing can be altered and revised many times during the design processof the system

    5. The main thing this drawing does is give a visual as to the intended systembeing designed sometimes it takes having this type of visual representation

    to allow other considerations or views of the process to be realized,

    redesigned, modified and re-engineered.

    6. It is the basis for feedback, discussion and revisions by the project engineerand clients.

    7. An Eg of PFD is given on next page:

    2.3 Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs)

    The piping and Instrument Diagram (P&ID) provides a schematic representation ofthe piping, process control, and instrumentation which shows the functional

    relationships among the system components.The P&ID also provides important information needed by the constructor and

    manufacturer to develop the other construction input documents (the isometric

    drawings or orthographic physical layout drawings).

    The P&ID provides direct input to the field for the physical design and installation of

    field-run piping.

    Typical P&ID characteristics:

    1. shows all valves and instrumentation2. Piping is detailed and contains some fittings3. Tanks and vessels show all nozzles and flanges4. Values associated with pipe are show; such as flow rates, temperature,

    pressureetc.

    2.4Material Take off Sheets (MTOs)Definition used by the ISA (International Society of Automation) :

    A Material Take Off (MTO) is the process of analyzing the drawings and determiningall the materials required to accomplish the design. We then use the material takeoff

    to create a bill of materials (BOM). Inspection does not aid in creating a bill ofmaterials. Procurement and requisition are activities that occur after the bill of

    materials is complete.

    Material Take Off (MTO) is a term used in engineering and construction, and refers to

    a list ofmaterials with quantities and types (such as specific grades ofsteel) that are

    required to build a designed structure or item. This list is generated by analysis of a

    blueprint or other design document. The list of required materials for construction is

    sometimes referred to as the Material Take Off List (MTOL).

    2.5General Arrangement Drawings (GADs)These drawings indicate the locations of main equipments in the plant. The mainpiping items, valves, and fittings are also indicated in the General Arrangement or GA

    drawings. Most often the piping is indicated using a top-view. Sometimes a side viewof the pipe rack is also presented on the GA drawing.

    General arrangement drawings are also developed for individual equipments. These

    drawings present the main dimensions of that equipment using 2D views, top-view,side-view and sometimes front-view. All the nozzles for concerned equipment are

    indicated on the equipment General Arrangement or GA drawing.

    2.6IsometricsThe Iso, as isometric are commonly referred, is oriented on the grid relative to thenorth arrow found on plan drawings. Because iso's are not drawn to scale, dimensions

    are required to specify exact lengths of piping runs.

    PIPING isometrics are generally produced from orthographic drawings and are

    important pieces of information to engineers. In very complex or large piping

    systems, piping isometrics are essential to the design and manufacturing phases of a

    project.

    PIPING isometrics allow the pipe to be drawn in a manner by which the length, width

    and depth are shown in a single view. Isometrics are usually drawn from information

    found on a plan and elevation views. The symbols that represent fittings, Valves and

    flanges are modified to adapt to the isometric grid. Usually, piping isometrics are

    drawn on preprinted paper, with lines of equilateral triangles form of 60.

    Pipe lengths are determined through calculations using coordinates and elevations.Vertical lengths of pipe are calculated using elevations, while horizontal lengths are

    calculated using north-south and east-west coordinates.

    CHAPTER 3: BASICS OF PIPING

    3.1 Categories of Piping

    Piping is divided into three categories:

    1. Large bore pipe: Generally includes piping greater than two inches in diameter.2. Small bore pipe: Generally includes piping which is two inches and smaller in

    diameter.3. Tubing: Tubing is supplied in sizes up to four inches in diameter but has a wall

    thickness less than that of either large bore or small piping.

    3.2 Pipe Terminologies and Definitions

    3.2.1 Nominal Pipe Size:The term diameter for piping sizes is identified by nominal size.The manufacture of nominal sizes of 1/8 inches through 12 inches inclusive is

    based on a standardized outside diameter (OD).The 14 inch and larger sizes have the OD equal to the nominal pipe size.

    Tubing however is sized to the outside diameter for all applications.

    Pipe Sizes 3/8'', 1 1/4'', 3 1/2'', 4 1/2' and 5 inches are considered as non-standardand should not be used except to connect to equipment having these sizes. In this

    case the line is increased to a standard size as soon as it leaves the equipment.

    3.2.2 Schedule NumberPipes are manufactured in a multitude of wall thickness. These wall thicknesshave been standardized so that a series of specific thickness applies to each size of

    piping. Each thickness is designated by a schedule number rather than the actualwall thickness.

    The original thickness was referred to as standard (STD), extra strong (XS) anddouble extra strong (XXS). These designation or weight classes have now either

    been replaced or supplemented by SCHEDULE NUMBERS in most cases.

    Schedules begin with 5 and 5s followed by 10 and 10S, then progress in

    increments of ten through Schedule 40 and then finally by increments of twenty to

    Schedule 160.

    Wall thickness for Schedule 40 and STD are the same for sizes 1/8'' to 10''.

    Schedule 80 and XS also have the same wall thickness for 1/8'' through 8'' dia

    3.2.3 Pipe LengthPipe is usually supplied in random lengths. The shortest, longest and average

    length may vary for piping of different materials, sizes and wall thickness

    schedules.

    Typically an average length of 20 feet is used for carbon steel pipe, but doublerandom lengths are available from most suppliers and are generally preferred

    especially for rack installations.

    3.2.4 Pipe Ends1. Plain ends (PE) are cut square and reamed to remove burrs. This type of end is used

    for mechanical couplings, socket weld fittings or slip on flanges.

    2. Beveled ends (BE) are required for most butt-weld applications.3. Threaded ends (TE) are used for screwedjoints. Pipe order is placed as threaded

    both ends (TBE) or threaded one end (TOE).

    3.3 Standard Piping Materials

    3.3.1 Carbon Steel

    Itis one of the most commonly used pipe materials.The specifications that cover most of the pipe used are published by the ASTM

    (American Society for Testing of Materials) and ASME ( American Society Of

    Mechanical Engineers )

    e.g. A106 is a Carbon Steel material specification and is available in grades A,B

    and C.The grades refer the tensile strength.3.3.2 Stainless Steel Pipe

    Itis virtually non-magnetic. There are eighteen different grades and type 304 L isthe most widely used.L denotes low carbon content and is best suited for welding.

    3.3.3 Chromium-Molybedenum Alloy

    Thispipe is commonly referred to as ''chrome-moly''. There are ten grades ofthis type of pipe material and are covered by ASTM 335. Chrome - moly pipe is

    used extensively in heat exchangers.

    3.4 Piping Components

    3.4.1 Flanges

    Flanges are divided by class which is normally rated by working pressure in

    pounds per square inch. They are available in a variety of primary pressureratings from 25psi to 2500 psi.

    Selection of the proper flange facing depends on the combination of manyfactors:

    1. Flange material2. Gasket Material3. Bolt Strength4. Operating Pressure and Temperature5. Fluid Properties Contained

    Types of Flanges:

    1. Weld Neck Flanges are the most common type of flanges used andpreferred for the majority of service conditions. The strength of the fitting

    increases and stress is distributed so that this style can withstand extreme

    temperature. Shear, impact, bending and vibratory loading.

    3. Slip-on Flangesare sometimes preferred because of its lower installationcost and because it can accommodate slight misalignment. The calculated

    strength of the slip-on flange under internal pressure is approximately two

    thirds that of the weld neck style flanges and its life under fatigue is about

    one-third that of the weld-neck.

    4. Threaded Flanges are attached by screwing the flange onto the threadedend of the pipe. As with other threaded fittings its use is restricted to

    systems having relatively low operating temperatures and pressures.

    5. Lap Joint Flangesare used in piping that will be frequently dismantled.The flange is free to revolve on the pipe thus avoiding the problem of

    accurate alignments.

    3.4.2 Elbows

    They make an angle between adjacent pipes. There are standard elbows of 90

    degrees and 45 degrees.

    Long radius 90 deg elbow:

    Radius of bend = 1.5 times the nominal pipe diameter.

    Short radius 90 deg elbow: Radius of bend = nominal diameter. Reducing elbowsare 90 deg elbows with two different size ends

    3.4.3 Tees

    Straight Tee has three openings. Two have the same axis while the third is

    perpendicular to this axis for connecting a branch line.

    Reducing Teeis similar to a straight tee except that the branch line connection issmaller in size.

    3.4.4 Lateral pipe fittings

    They are of two types:

    Straight Lateral pipe fittingshave three outlets two of which have the same axisand a third on the side joined at 45 deg angle from the main axis.

    Reducing Lateral fittings are similar to straight laterals except that the branchconnection is smaller in size.

    3.4.5 Reducers

    Concentric Reducers are pipefitting with different nominal diameters on each

    end while maintaining the same centerline.

    Eccentric Reducersare pipefitting with different nominal diameters on each endand the fitting is flat on one side with an eccentric centerline. Eccentric reducers

    are used for connecting different size pipes especially at centrifugal pump inlet

    connections for preventing air pockets which may cause the pump to CAVIATE.

    3.4.6 Swage nipples

    A Swage Nipple is a reducing fitting used to join piping of different sizes. Caremust be taken in matching the correct pipe schedules and end styles when

    ordering. Swages are available in both concentric and eccentric types.

    3.4.7 Pipe caps

    Pipe Capsis specialized fittings that are used to close an open end.

    3.4.8 Strainers

    Strainersare used to remove solid particles from liquids. They generally have apermanent screen that can be cleaned by emptying, washing or blowdown.

    Strainers are generally placed in the main line so that all of the process fluid

    passes through them.

    Strainers are either permanent plant components designed for the life of the plant

    or temporary components for the removal of construction residue during initial

    start up.

    3.4.9 Weldolets

    They are integral reinforcement fittings used for branch connection strength.

    They are designed to minimize stress concentrations and provide integral

    reinforcement.

    3.4.10 Full Couplings and Threaded Unions

    Full couplingsare used to join a pipe segment to another pipe or pipefitting.

    Screwed Unionsare basically screwed joint that can be disassembledwithin a completed system for subsequent maintenance.

    3.5 Valves

    3.5.1 Definition and Function

    A Valve may be defined as a mechanical device by which the flow of liquid or gas

    may be started, stopped or regulated by a movable part that opens, shuts or

    partially obstructs one or more ports or passageways.

    A Valve may be designed to direct, start, stop, mix or regulate the flow, pressure,

    or temperature of a process fluid.

    A Valve by nature of their design and materials can :

    Open and Close Turn on and off Regulate Isolate extremely large array of liquids and gases.

    3.5.2 Valve Materials

    Carbon Steel is the ideal material for non-corrosive fluids. It is also used for

    steam and condensate services. Carbon Steel is readily available in most common

    general service valves and generally inexpensive. It is recommended in

    temperatures up to 425 Deg Celsius in continuous service or up to 535 Deg

    Celsius in non-continuous service.

    Figure 20 Full Couplings

  • 7/31/2019 L&T Summer Training Report

    28/63

    LPG-LEF DISTILLATION UNIT DESIGN 2012

    Page | 28

    Stainless Steel is very corrosion resistant, extremely strong and is commonly

    specified for high- temperature application temperatures at 535 Deg Celsius and

    higher. The cost of Stainless Steel is higher than carbon steel but less than other

    alloy steels.

    Chrome-Molybdenum steel is a good material that falls between the

    characteristics of carbon steel and stainless steel. It can handle higher pressure and

    temperatures than carbon steel making it ideal for high pressure steam or flashing

    condensate applications. Special alloys are specified for special service or severe

    service valves e.g. Hastealloy B & C may be selected for a highly acidic fluid

    service or Monel or bronze body may be selected for a pure Oxygen Service.

    1. Gate valves:A Gate valve is a multi turn valve in which the port is closed by a flat-

    faced vertical disk that slides at right angles over the seat. It is primarily

    designed for on-off service, where it is operated infrequently.

    It can be applied to general service, oil, gas, air slurries, heavy liquids,

    steam, non-condensing gases and liquids, corrosive liquids

    2.

    Globe valves:A Globe valve is a linear motion valve and is generally used for both on-

    off throttling applications.

    Although the globe design can handle high-pressure classes, due to the

    thrust limitations of the hand operator globe valves are usually applied to

    lower pressure applications.

    3. Ball valvesThe valves, which are best, used for on-off service, as well as moderate

    throttling situations that require minimal accuracy.

    They are made in three general patterns: Venturi port, Full port and

    Reduced port

    4. Butterfly valvesIn a Butterfly valve the fluid moves from the inlet to the outlet, with the

    disk being the only obstruction to the flow.

  • 7/31/2019 L&T Summer Training Report

    30/63

    LPG-LEF DISTILLATION UNIT DESIGN 2012

    Page | 30

    Unlike gate or globe valve designs, where the closure element moves out

    of the flow stream, the butterfly disk is located in the middle of the flow

    stream.

    It creates some turbulence to the flow, even in the open position.

    5. Check valvesCheck valves (also known as non-return valves) are automatic valves that

    prevent a return or reverse flow of the process.

    The check valve operation is dependent upon the flow direction of the

    process, which may be created by a pump or pressure drop.

    6. Plug valvesIt is a quarter-turn manual valve that uses a cylindrical or tapered plug topermit or prevent straight-through flow through the body.

    Plug valves are either lubricated or non-lubricated.

    For non-lubricated valves, the plug may be inserted from the top or bottom

    of the valve body.

    7. Diaphragm valvesDiaphragm Valves consist of a rigid body formed with a weir placed in theflow path, a flexible diaphragm which forms the upper pressure boundary

    of the valve, a compressor which is used to force diaphragm against the

    weir, and the bonnet and hand wheel which secure the diaphragm to the

    body and actuate the compressor.

    They are manufactured in Variety of end connections:

    Welding end socket or butt welding, flanged, screwed or threaded, clamp

    ends, solvent cement joint ends for thermoplastic valves and male sanitary

    threaded ends.

    8. Safety valvesThey are also known as pop safety valves.

    They are spring loaded, quick opening, full flow valves for systems

    containing pressurized, compressible fluids such as steam, air, or other

    vapors or gases.

    The set pressure is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the spring

    compression.

    The difference between the opening pressure and the closing pressure is

    called blowdown.

    31/63

    LPG-LEF DISTILLATION UNIT DESIGN 2012

    Page | 31

    9. Relief valvesThey are similar to safety valve but open only slightly at set pressure.

    Instead of full opening, they open wider if the pressure increase above the

    set pressure.

    Relief valves are normally used for liquids, such as water or oil, whererelease of a small volume will rapidly lower the pressure.

    3.6 Gaskets

    A gasket is a malleable material, which can be either soft or hard, that is inserted

    between two parts to prevent leakage between that joint.

    Pressure is applied by bolting or using a clamp to compress the gasket firmly in

    place.

    Gaskets are made from all different types of materials, depending on the

    temperature, pressure or fluid characteristics of the process.

    Gaskets are used in valves for three major purposes:

    To prevent leakage around the closure mechanism To prevent leakage of fluid to atmosphere To allow the function of internal mechanisms that depend on separate fluid

    chambers, such as pressure balance trim

    3.7 Piping nomenclature

    3.7.1 Need for nomenclature

    Several documents are required as a part of design of process plants. Out of these

    the documents related to piping are:1. Piping & Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID),2. Piping Layout3. Piping Elevation etc.Each of these documents contains several lines of different sizes, MOC and

    service.

    Thus it becomes necessary to identify each line and assign a unique identity to

    each of them.A line can be identified by its number, fluid to be handled, location in plant, line

    size, MOC etc.These parameters are the basic elements of line identity and when put in a proper

    order forms what is called as Elements/Parameters of Piping Nomenclature .

  • 7/31/2019 L&T Summer Training Report

    33/63

    LPG-LEF DISTILLATION UNIT DESIGN 2012

    Page | 33

    3.7.2 Detailed description

    Parameter 1: Line Number

    1. Line Number is a unique number assigned to every line. Every line musthave a different line number i.e. the number should not be repeated for

    various lines.2. The simplest way of line numbering can be assigning numbers 1, 2, 3

    and so on to lines.

    3. Depending on the type of fluid the lines can be further numbered. Forexample lines for process fluids can have numbering in one range, say, 1 to

    100, utility lines can have numbering falling in another range, say, 101 to

    200 and so on.4. Yet another way of line numbering can be assigning letters/alphabets to

    various fluid services and accordingly numberings the lines. For examplethe process lines can be assigned letter 'P', utility lines can be assigned

    letter U and then depending on various lines the number follows the

    corresponding letter e.g. P123 indicates process line with no.123.

    Parameter 2: Fluid to be handled

    1. Process lines are meant for handling various fluids. The fluids handled canbe classified as Process fluids (which further includes the raw materials,

    the intermediate streams and the final product).

    2. Utilities (which includes cooling water, chilled water, steam, thermicfluids, soft water, DM water etc.).

    3. For nomenclature, each of these lines are given specific codes dependingon the fluid handled e.g. CHS may indicate chilled water supply, CHR

    may indicate chilled water return DMS may indicate DM water supply and

    so on.

    Parameter 3: Location in plant

    1. This parameter is included in the nomenclature so as to indicate the originof any stream in various locations of the plant.

    2. The various sections of plants are Raw material storage, processing,Intermediate Product Storage, Final product storage, Water treatment

    section, utility section, waste treatment section etc.

    3. These sections can be indicated as RMS-SEC for Raw Material Storagesection, PRO-SEC for processing section, WTP-SEC for Water treatment

    section-WSTSEC for waste treatment section, UTI-SEC for Utilitysection and so on.4. Each of these sections can be numbered depending on the process flow and

    this number appears in the nomenclature. For example Raw MaterialStorage section can be designated as I, Processing Section by II and so on.

    Parameter 4: Line size

    1. Although the selection of line is a job of piping engineer, the line sizingcan be done by Process or Piping engineer. Commercial pipes are available

    either as NB (Nominal Bore ) based or OD (Outside Diameter) based

    depending on the material of construction.

  • 7/31/2019 L&T Summer Training Report

    34/63

    LPG-LEF DISTILLATION UNIT DESIGN 2012

    Page | 34

    2. The standard sizes on NB basis are 25, 50, 80,100,150,200 etc. Thecorresponding sizes on OD basis are 33.4, 60.3, 88.9, 114.3, 168.3, 219.1etc. The same are mentioned in the nomenclature.

    Parameter 5: Material of Construction

    1. Commercial pipes are available with various materials of constructions.Most commonly used materials are CS, AISI 304, AISI 316, Copper, PVC

    etc.

    2. In the nomenclature MOC can be written as it is like CS for Carbon steel,AISI 304, AISI 316 etc. for various grades of Stainless Steel. Type 2

    second way can be giving code for various MOC. For example Code 1 can

    denote CS, Code 2 can denote AISI 304 and so on.

    Parameter 6: Insulation1. Heat transfer is the common operation used in Process industries. Process

    equipments and pipes are insulated either to prevent heat loss to the

    surroundings or to prevent heat gain from the surroundings.2. Accordingly there are two types of insulations hot and cold. Depending

    on the temperature inside the pipe and that of the surroundings, the nature

    of insulation differs. The terms H and C can thus be used to indicate

    the type of insulation.

    3. The inclusion of this parameter in the nomenclature is essential because itindicates the nature of fluid in the pipe which is mainly required for

    personnel safety in the plant.

    Parameter 7: Phase

    1. Materials that are handled in Process plants exist in different phases. Ingeneral the flow can classified as single phase flow, two phase flow and

    three phase flow.

    2. Single phase flow indicates flow of solid, liquid, gases or vapors. Twophase flow indicates combination of any two of these e.g. solid + liquid,

    solid + gases, liquid + vapors etc

    3. Three phase flow indicated combination of any three of these. Theinclusion of this parameter in the nomenclature may be optional, but the

    inclusion proves to be very helpful especially when the process involves

    several phase flows through various lines in the plant. Type 1)4. The details of phase can be given by complete name of the phase like

    solid, liquid etc. Type 2) Letters such as S, L, G and V can be used todenote respectively solids, liquids, gas and vapors.

    Parameter 8: Other Details

    1. At times it becomes necessary to provide additional details in thenomenclature.

    2. These include jacketing of pipe, pipe tracing, special lines like IBR etc.The additional detail can be indicated as it is in the nomenclature.

    CHAPTER 4: PROJECT WORK

    4.1 Analysis

    Though the LPG recovery unit consists of many components but our main focus

    is on two columns: 40-C-401 & 40-C-402. So throughout the entire project work all the

    DESCRIPTION, WORKING PROPORTION AND DESIGN CALCULATIONS will be

    in context of two COLUMNS.

    4.1.1 Process description

    The Fractionation section consists of two columns:

    1. Light end fractionation column (LEF)Liquid from HP & LP separator under level control LIC-1301 & LIC 1501

    (cascaded with flow) after exchange of cold in feed gas chiller and then fed

    to LEF column(40-C-401) on 9th

    tray.

    The column has a total of 40 valves trays. The column operates at a

    pressure of 28.2kg/cm2g at the top.

    Reflux is generated by condensing part of overhead vapors in LEF

    Condenser (40-E-406) by using LP separator overhead vapors and fed to

    the column top by reflux pump (40-P-401A/B) under flow control.

    Reflux drum level is controlled by LIC/FIC-2001 cascade acting on thereflux flow to the column.

    Temperature at the inlet of the LEF reflux drum is controlled by bypassing

    LEF condenser and hence controlling condensation of LEF column

    overhead vapor.

    In case of lower condensing temperatures, a split range control bypasses

    cold lean gas from LP separator passing through LEF column condenser.

    Lean gas is generated at the LEF column overhead vapor with main

    constituents of methane, ethane.

    Cold from uncondensed LEF column overhead vapors is recovered in Feedgas chiller and the gas is then used for regeneration of feed gas dryers.

    Thermosiphon type LEF column Reboiler (40-E-407) is provided at LEF

    column bottom using LP steam.

    Steam flow to reboiler is controlled by 39 th tray temperature. Liquid from

    LEF column bottoms is withdrawn under LIC-1904/FIC-1901 cascade at

    approximately 97 degree Celsius and fed to LPG column (40-C-402).

    Steam Condensate from LEF column bottom reboiler is routed to steam

    condensate recovery system within ISBL under level control of reboiler

    condensate pot (40-V-404).

    Page | 36

    2. LPG columnBottom liquid from LEF column is taken to LPG column (40-C-402) on

    the 22nd tray.

    This column has 52 valve trays and is designed to separate LPG (propane

    and butane) from heavier components.The column is operated at a pressure of 15kg/cm2g at the top.

    The pressure is maintained by varying surface area of LPG column

    condenser.

    LPG product is withdrawn as overhead liquid product from Reflux Drum

    (40-V-408) under level control (LIC-2201) and sent to existing LPG

    storage. Reflux is sent back to column through LPG column Reflux Pumps

    (40-P-402A/B), under flow control (FIC-2201).

    The column bottom has a thermosiphon type Reboiler (40-E-409) using

    MP steam.Steam flow to reboiler is controlled by a 51st tray temperature.

    NGL from column bottom is cooled to 40 degree Celsius by water cooler

    (40-E-410) and then sent to storage under level control (LIC-2102) of LPG

    column bottoms.

    Provision for diverting off-sped NGL to the crude stabilization unit has

    also been kept, in case NGL rundown temperature goes higher than 50

    degree Celsius due to fouling of rundown cooler or LPG column

    temperature going down due to any operational failure.

    Steam condensate from LPG column bottom reboiler is routed to steam

    condensate recover system with ISBL under level control of reboiler

    condensate pot (40-V-409).

    4.1.2 Process flow diagram (PFDs)

    It is designed to recover maximum LPG from sweetened gas coming from gas

    Sweetening units and produce value added products viz. LPG, NGL & Lean gas.

    Instrumentation.

    Since I am allotted PIPING task, I deduced that official P&ID of column 40-C-

    401 and 40-C-402 to the extent such that it is of use for piping only.

    All these changes were done in AUTOCAD 2012 version and PDF files of them

    are shown below:

    CHAPTER 5: SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONIn Oil and Gas industry, in order to setup a plant PIPING plays a critical role. Fluid is

    transferred through pipes between different and within processing units. Our project is based

    on piping of a sub unit of LPG Recovery plant in ONGC, URAN.

    For piping, in this project as well as other units; elementary steps are almost same and are

    mentioned below:

    1. PFDs and Descriptions of each unit.2. Multiple P&IDs of single PFD showing detailed description of each Equipment.3. Mechanical Data Sheets (MDS) for every equipment.4. MTOs for each processing unit.5. GADs for whole unit.6. Modeling of plant through software like PDS/PDMS.7. Extraction of isometrics.

    After this designing section, these isometrics are issued for construction sites. And the

    modeling is done in accordance with following standards:

    1. OISD 118.2. ASME B16.5, B31.3 & B36.10.

    Before Modeling, calculations are done for the elevations of equipments, pipe diameter, pipe

    thickness and nozzle orientation.
