Transport of petroleum products by road is recording a high rate of fatality in India. According to the report of the Oil Industry Safety Directorate, the rate of transport accidents is decreasing from the last 2 years. Petroleum companies in India…
1 Scope This document specifies the technical requirements for carbon steel and low-alloy steel forged flanges for use in pipeline transportation systems for the petroleum and natural gas industries as defined in ISO 13623. This document applies to…
Hydrogen blending has significant influences on the characteristics and evolution of safety accidents of natural gas. In this study, the numerical investigation is performed to reveal the leakage and diffusion characteristics of hydrogen-blended…
In Oil Industry Safety Directorate (OISD), it has been testified that nearly 33% of pipeline defects are due to improper pigging and improper precast-forecasting of the existence of a crack in the long run pipelines. Therefore, pipeline engineers are…
In recent years, the use of natural gas has remarkably increased due to growth in energy demands and concerns about the environment. Generally, pipelines are used for liquefied natural gas transportation
With the development of domestic petroleum exploitation, the water cut of produced liquid is up to 70%-90%, and the energy consumption of gathering and transportation in oilfields is greatly increased, which makes low-temperature transportation…
Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, worldwide consumption of petroleum fuels is reduced due to complete or partial lockdown in most of the countries. The abridged expenditure of liquid fuels imposes pressure on petroleum refinery industries for their…
Industrial storage tanks are widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy and other process industries. The use of storage tanks are important in ensuring industrial safety production and product storage. Recently, concerns are rising over…
Life-saving rules (LSRs) are a set of defined rules that support and complement general site-specific safety rules and procedures (SRPs). LSRs are popular in the oil & gas (O&G) industry and are part of the safety management system framework designed…
The production and storage of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is gradually becoming larger and more intensive, which greatly increases the risk of the domino effect of an explosion accident in a storage tank area while improving production and…
The Battelle Memorial Institute, Sandia National Laboratory, and Nova Northstar LLC, jointly carried out two projects, sponsored by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration, assessing the roles of subsurface safety valves and tubing…
To ensure high safety level in crude oil and its distillates storage tanks, petrochemical industry needs responsive and reliable hydrocarbon vapor sensing devices. We propose here a cost-effective petroleum vapor sensor that could be used effectively…
Electrical energy storage (EES) systems consisting of multiple process components and containing intensive amounts of energy present inherent hazards coupled with high operational risks. Although the thermal hazards of batteries have aroused…
Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, worldwide consumption of petroleum fuels is reduced due to complete or partial lockdown in most of the countries. The abridged expenditure of liquid fuels imposes pressure on petroleum refinery industries for their…
The flammable hydrogen-blended methaneair and natural gasair mixtures raise spe-cific safety and environmental issues in the industry and transportation
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) floating production storage offloading, or floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG), is an offshore unit used to produce LNG from offshore gas reservoirs. The liquefaction is critical process for liquefying natural gas (NG)…
The efficient utilization of waste cooking oil (WCO) in petrochemical and high-quality gasoline production could reduce food safety issues and boost the new energy industry's sustainable development. The co-processing of WCO, vacuum gas oil, and…
Transport of petroleum products by road is recording a high rate of fatality in India. According to the report of the Oil Industry Safety Directorate, the rate of transport accidents is decreasing from the last 2 years. Petroleum companies in India…
The role of natural gas in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and advancing renewable energy resource integration is undoubtedly critical. With the progress of hydrocarbons exploration and production, the target zones become deeper and the…
With the development of domestic petroleum exploitation, the water cut of produced liquid is up to 70%-90%, and the energy consumption of gathering and transportation in oilfields is greatly increased, which makes low-temperature transportation…
Hydrogen blending has significant influences on the characteristics and evolution of safety accidents of natural gas. In this study, the numerical investigation is performed to reveal the leakage and diffusion characteristics of hydrogen-blended…
Large ships are efficient in transporting oil and its derivatives. However, they can cause spills in the event of accidents. The aim of the study is to simulate oil dispersion processes in scenarios of likely accidents with ships traveling on sea…
