RE: Designing of FPSO crude oil process

Hello,

I have a project where the 4 PSV from the discharge of 4 centrifugal pumps are connected in one header and routed in the same tank also for the discharge header.

According with API 520, 521(I didn't find the exactly explination) The PSV's must to be connected in the suction of pumps. But on the suction lines I have 4 filters installed.
The set pressure of Psv is 17 bars the discharge operating pressure is 12 bars. fluid Heavy oil
The question is where is better to reroute this PSV's in the suction line- after or before filters or directly to the source tank???

thank you in advance
