3. “JUST ONE CASE”
Project: HDS-Carteira de Gasolina
Reduc-Refinery, Rio de Janeiro-Brazil
Start (FEL-I): 2005
Conclusion (Start-up): March-2011
Specs:
•FCC- Naphta FEED 4500 m3/d
•FCC Battery-limit direct to HDS Process unit.
•Licensor: AXENS
4. “ JUST ONE CASE”
FEL-II to FEL-III: decision for the use of the FF Technology:
Project Manager, Sponsor, Final Client (Operators)
Supported by the Licensor
Pros: (in 2006)
-EPC: reduction in materials & HH, Inteligent Instruments (more information).
-Maintenance: prediction
-Advanced Control: indicated by the Licensor- U$ 1MM per year in Profits
-Better response (PID´s running in the field)
-Accuracy
Cons:
-Instruments and Cabling: more expensive
-Service: expertise in FF Technology by EPC team
-Review in Loop tests: new procedures
-Review in Schedule: Commissioning, Loop tests, etc.
5. “ JUST ONE CASE”
FEL-III (FEED)
FEED scope
FEED deliverables
Before Phase IV:
Generation of “Specific Documents”:
MD for FF specs, including Cables
MD for EPC contract: Automation Chapter
MD for Integrator-Contract, included in EPC scope
LD for Specific FF deliverables (documents) by “Detailing Eng.”
RL´s for: Commissioning, Loop-tests, Start-up procedures
6. “ JUST ONE CASE”
General Project Criteria:
12 Devices per H1 segment-maximum
10 Devices instaled per H1 segment
03 Field-barriers per H1 segment
12 Spurs= 10 installed + 02 spares
Voltage calculation for 12 Devices
Microcicle Calculation for 12 Devices
1000ms for Microcicle time(maximum) per H1 segment, indicated by Licensor
Acceptable: 02 Control valves per H1 segment
Connectors in the Fieldbarrier and Cable-glands in the Instrument
ITK-4.5 (minimum)
DCS: ABB IIT, Devices: Multiple Suppliers (PETROBRAS Vendor-List)
Control Valve Criticity FF Loop Analisys Report
Procedures and Calculations by CENPES
Participants: CENPES (MC), Operators, Automation Experts, EPC, Ext. Consultant.
Results: 58% of Loops accepted PID running in the Field (Valve Positioner).
7. “ JUST ONE CASE”
Testing Procedures:
Instruments Set-up (in the Bench)
DCS parameters, configurated previously, should not modify “bench set-up”: loss of
Certification
Dynamic Test for FF devices “in the Bench”:
Procedures consolidated with “Integrator”
Reports as Standards for Tests
General Criteria:
>Cable maximum lengh cut for H1
>Cable maximum lengh cut for Spurs
>Simulate each H1, in the bench, with all devices and cables to test
Voltage and Microcicle values to certificate each H1 segment
>Consolidation of Voltage and Microcicle Memory Calculations.
DCS parameters, configurated previously, should not modify “bench set-up”: loss of
Certification
8. “ JUST ONE CASE”
Testing Procedures(Cont):
Procedures for Connectorization
Connectorization should be performed in a clean enviroment, never in the field/
site.
Static test for Cables plus Connectors, in the bench.
“Dynamic” test for Cables plus Connectors instaled in Trays in the field.
Loop Tests:
Faster, accurate
Reports “from the Bench” as a reference to Field results
Consolidate: Voltage and Memory Calculations- minumum deviation
Use of FF signal Wave Form pictures in the Reports comparing bench to site
values.
Composition of a File containing information for each Device in each H1
segment with all Devices.
Acceptance procedure: file to be approved before and after tests.
9. “ JUST ONE CASE”
Important Aspects:
Are EPC´s prepared to support a project in FF(2012)?
• Certification for Automation Engeneers
• DCS Suppliers are prepared to develop a project in FF?
• Very Important: include a FF Certified Integrator in the EPC Contract.
• Interoperability: DCS versus Instrument Suppliers.
• Internet:
FF Website and Instrument Suppliers Website
DCS Suppliers shall “open doors” to other Instrument Suppliers.
DCS Suppliers shall “work close” to EPC´s
PID running in the Field is not a “Monster”.
