Why Using Transient Module

• This section is aimed at raising the profile of using PIPENET TRANSIENT in the minds of

– Managers

– Operators

– Plant owners

– Designers

– Installers

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

National Codes and Standards

• Many National Codes and Standards have requirements to design piping systems to take into account the effects of occasional loads such as pressure transients in systems.

• This is not only concerns positive pressures but also negative pressures.

• Full vacuum can occur when there is column separation in a pipeline. This commonly occurs when there is a loss of power or rapid closure of an upstream valve.

• Thin wall ferrous and low stiffness thermoplastic pipe may be subjected to the occurrence of buckling due to vacuum.

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

Types of Damage from Surge

• There are two categories of damage that arise from surge events

– Catastrophic failure of the pipeline or equipment

– Fatigue damage to pipelines, equipments and supports

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

Catastrophic Failure of the Pipeline or Equipment

• Pipelines have been known to fail catastrophically as a result of surge events. The failure may take the form of a pipe burst or a pipeline collapse from buckling. The consequences could be1. Delay to completion of the project

2. Plant and equipment non availability to the process and thus loss of earnings

3. Environmental damage

4. Personal injury

5. Loss of reputation and branding

6. Loss of future work from the client

7. Damage to other properties, injuries to the public

8. Increased insurance premiums

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

Fatigue Damage to Pipelines, Equipments and Supports

• Pipeline1. The derating of pipeline materials occurs because of

the fatigue that occurs. To overcome the potential of fatigue failure increased pipe wall thickness is required to reduce the stress level in the pipe wall.

2. Pipeline accessories may fail to fatigue damage. These include leaking gaskets, valve body, seal or gasket failure, instrument failure or pipe support failure.

• Equipments

Damage to equipment may mean that a process is offline whilst replacement equipment is installed. The on-costs can be many times the primary price of the equipment alone.

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

• Equipments (cont.)– Pumps1. Pumps can suffer damage to the seals, bearings, impeller,

shaft and casing from surge events.

2. In today’s world of high speed small frame pumps the relatively small nozzles are particularly vulnerable if the piping is not correctly supported or isolated.

3. Seals are damaged as a negative pressure may lift the seal face and allow solids to enter. This will lead to wear and consequential leaks.

4. Cast iron bodied pumps can fail because of the stress reversals in a fatigue situation. Cast iron is particularly weak in tension.

5. A surge event may create vortexing that results in loss of prime to a pump system.

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

• Equipments (cont.)– Valves1. Valves can be damaged by fatigue such their seats will allow fluid to

pass and thus not isolate as designed. Gland seals are likely to leak requiring the retightening of the gland or complete re packing.

2. Control valves may be susceptible to loss of control during a surge event.

3. Control valves have parts that are more likely to be damaged. Such items as positioners or other electronic components are vulnerable.

4. Check valve seats may be damaged and thus leak. This results in a waste of energy in duty/standby pump arrangements as fluid is recirculated. Shafts and pins have been known to fail due to fatigue.

5. There have also been incidents of the flaps in a dual flap check valve failing completely and lodging is some other process equipment causing blockages.

6. Air release/ vacuum valves usually have small components or floats that can be damaged by pressures in excess of design or severe vibration resulting from surges.

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

• Equipments (cont.)– Valves7. Relief valves may discharge as a result of a surge event. If this

occurs frequently the seat may fail from fatigue.

8. If the valve is buried it becomes a major exercise to replace.

• Pipe Supports1. The vibration resulting from a series of surge events can

cause the pipe support to damage the external surface of the pipe material and result in a leak.

2. Pipe supports secured to concrete or steel structures can fail at the fasteners as a result of fatigue.

3. Concentrated masses such as valves may be excited by surge events and cause damage to the piping material.

Consequences of Fatigue Damage

• Emergency call out resources• Alternate supply lines• Increased maintenance costs• Increased investment in maintenance resources• Complaints procedures• Standby equipment• Increased level of spares holding• Possible special freight arrangements for remote

sites• Increased insurance premiums• OH&S and industrial relations problems

Significant Devices in a System that Contribute to Surge

• Pumps– A parameter used in the surge analysis of a pump

system is the moment of inertia (MOI) of the pump, fluid and motor rotating elements.

• Check Valves– The type of check valve used has a great bearing on

the pressure transients that can occur in a system.

• Air/Vacuum Release Valves– The air/vacuum release valves used on pipelines

come in many forms of complexity.

Why Don’t Engineers Undertake Surge Analysis?

• You may well ask why engineers don’t carry out a water hammer analysis. Could it be that:– There is difficulty in undertaking the calculations using

the graphical techniques of yesteryear or modern software of today?

– You don’t have the software and these specialist tools are not easy to obtain funding approval for in a large company? Employ a specialist who does!

– It is not understood whether it is an art or a science? Need to increase your knowledge?

– Fear of the unknown and you were not taught the subject at university?

– Failures don’t appear to be frequent, but consider that most events are buried in confidentiality agreements following litigation.

TRANSIENT MODULE APPLICATION OFFSHORE FIREWATER SYSTEM

NOWROOZ OFFSHORE PLATFORM COMPLEX, IRAN

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

KEY POINTS

• Operator Is Shell, In Offshore Iran

• Two Sister Platform Complexes – Soroosh (3 Platforms) And Nowrooz (2 Platforms)

• The Firewater Ringmain Is Made Of GRP Pipes

• Pressure Controlled Deluge Valves Were Used

• Bridge Connection Between The Platforms. (So There Is Large Volume)

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

OBJECTIVES

• To calculate the maximum pressure surges and check if they are within the limit – deluge valve closure, deluge valve opening and pump trip

• Check the need for vacuum breakers, their position and sizes

• Check stability of the control valve

• Calculate hydraulic transient forces for pipe stress analysis, and positioning pipe supports.

Tel.: +44 1223 441311Fax:+44 1223 441297

POINTS OF SPECIAL INTEREST

• Elevation Changes in Offshore Platforms often cause large pressure surges due to cavity formation. Vacuum breakers are used to eliminate them.

• In this system, the large capacity of the bridge connection between the platforms combined with the elasticity of GRP material was instrumental in reducing the pressure surge. GRP is generally thought to be bad for pressure surge but in this case it was good.

CONCLUSIONS

• Open Oil Guns by The Group of Four Won’t Cause Any Problem to The Fuel Oil System. The Supply Pressure of The Oil Guns Is Above 20 barg.

• Pump Trip and Switch Is A Very Dangerous Case. The Supply Pressure of The Oil Guns May Drop Down to 8.5 barg, Which Is Lower Than The Allowed Minimum Pressure 10 barg.

• Accumulator Can Stabilize Oil Pressure Efficiently.
