Analysis - summary
Secondary Barrier Test
Single Source Scenario (Separator not in operation, outlets closed)
Cv = 2x108
Results very sensitive to PSV characteristic
Additional Source Scenario (Separator in operation)
Cv = 2x108 with limited gas production (background production)
Decision to apply administrative control: Operational procedures and
messages on operator screens in CCR
NB: If administrative control fails Pressure should not exceed Test
Pressures
Cv = 2x90
Turns out to be limiting for choke capacity!!!
Results very sensitive to control parameters for Pressure Valves (PV)
Continue with existing control parameters
Control parameters must not be changed without performing new analysis

Solution:
Use administrative control to limit gas production before start-up.
BUT! Pressure should not exceed test pressure if administrative control
fails.
No reduction of calculated choke Cv compared to the single source
scenario

Evaluation of valve capacity PV on Inlet Separator
30-40 % more capacity than needed
If PV goes fully open in short time capacity reduction is a good idea
With slow control parameters the extra 30-40% is not utilized.

Some examples are shown on the next 3 slides
Example 1: Using existing control parameters for all 3 PVs.
Example 2: The Inlet Separator PV has got fast parameters.
Example 3: The 2 PVs on the glycol contactors have got fast control

Initial assumption was wrong: The limiting scenario was not the
high importance.
Perform sensitivity studies. Surprising dynamic effects are often
revealed.
PV Control Parameters and the PSV characteristic are important
