Thanks Don1980 for your reply, it is much appreciated!

Hi Don1980, Thanks for your reply. I have checked both the capacity of the flare KO drum, I have a large KO drum with lots of volume capacity. Flare backpressure is also good and velocities in the flare header are good. I do not anticipate any large volume of liquids carrying over to the flare...

Hi, I am looking for some opinion and directions on what is required on relief system for oil treaters. I am trying to figure out if I need to install a pop tank off the oil treater PSV or can I tie the PSV on the treater into our flare system. I have both low pressure and high pressure flare...

All Stress Engineers, I am a pretty junior engineer in the field of stress engineering in piping. I have been getting the round around with different stress engineers about when to worry about stress due to thermal expansion. Just wondering, what range of temperatures should I be worried...

Thanks Ash9144, I stated question 4 incorrectly. Should state the following: 4. Is there any codes that I can reference to help in the decision making.

I am trying to determine what type of material to select for the design of a TEG dehydrator. The dehy will be used to strip the H20 from the gas stream. My gas composition is mostly gas (mostly methane) with 20% of the stream being C02. The temperature in my contactor tower is 100 degrees F...

Dear Experts, I am designing a vessel, my client in specifying the use of SA-516-70 for the shell plate. The service is sour (H2S) service and they are asking for HIC testing for the plate material. However, the vessel diameter is small and for the thickness of the plate it cannot be rolled...

When a heater is installed at a higher elevation than sea level does it take more or less gas to heat the bath

Thanks Strider & Steve for the input.

I am designing a vessel for sour(H2S) service. The material being used is carbon steel (SA-516-70). The shell and head material is specified as HIC resistant material therefore the material composition will meet the requirement for sour service. (I am assuming that when the plate and heads gets...

I am new to the Oil & Gas Industry. I am hoping someone can explain some issues I am having with material specification and MDMT. I am trying to specify material for a storage tank. The specified MDMT is -45 deg.C, I want to build this tank with carbon steel. The tank is design to be...

Thanks gr2vessels & atmengr for you suggestions.

I am pretty new to the Oil and Gas industry, but I am trying to decide weather I should coated or line the interior of some diesel tanks. My gut feeling is that diesel is not really that corrosive of a substance, however it does contain water. Has anyone seen diesel tanks with there interior coated?
