Flare and Blowdown Study

We provide thorough assessments of blowdown systems within industrial plants, ensuring safety, compliance, and operational integrity through the following detailed processes:

Flare Study: New Design and Adequacy of Existing

New Design:

• Develop Flarenet model based on the available isometrics
• Identify all the governing scenarios for the entire network and run the flarenet model
• Optimize the headers and sub headers to achieve results as per guidelines

Adequacy:

Assessment of Blowdown Systems

• Identification of the blowdown scenarios (fire ESD, adiabatic, and maintenance blowdown) for every blowdown valve in the plant and calculation of the minimum fluid and material temperature in the flare system.
• Calculation of the minimum temperature for scenarios such as normal operation, start-up, cold restart, maintenance blowdown, hydrate formation, etc.
• Confirmation blowdown system meets relevant depressurizing criteria.
• Confirmation that the material is adequate for the low temperatures.

Flare Adequacy Study

• Develop Flarenet model of existing plant in Aspen Flare System Analyzer.
• Identify governing scenarios for HP Flare and maximum loads.
• Perform adequacy study on all parts of the Flare System, including sub-headers, Flare Knock-Out Vessel, flare stack, and Flare tip
