1. BASIS OF DESIGN
1.1. DUTY OF PLANT
The objective of the CDU is to provide primary separation of crude oils to produce straight
run blendstocks of distillate products (after suitable downstream treatment processes) and
feedstocks for other downstream process units.
Crude oil feedstock is preheated against product and pumparound streams before being
routed to a fired heater. Primary fractionation is carried out in the main crude column
fractionator and associated side stream strippers. Overhead naphtha is further processed in
the naphtha stabiliser column. Products are cooled and rundown to intermediate storage or
further processing as appropriate. Light gas oil and heavy gas oil streams are vacuum dried
prior to rundown.
The unit is designed to operate on two crude oils:
6.5 Million Tonnes per Annum of Bach Ho crude oil (sweet case).
6.5 Million Tonnes per Annum of Dubai crude oil (sour case).
Furthermore, one operating case is based on a blend of 84.6 wt% of Bach Ho crude oil and
15.4 wt% of Dubai crude oil, such that the Jet A-1 specification for freeze point and density
can be achieve when processing the crude blend.
1.2. FEED CHARACTERISTICS
1.2.1.
Bach Ho crude
This crude oil is a light sweet crude oil with an API 39.2 and sulphur content of 0.03 %. It has
a K value of 12.3, which gives it paraffin classification. Bach Ho has a medium yield of
naphtha and good yields of middle distillates and vacuum gas oil.
Bach Ho is a high quality refining crude; low in contaminants which is well suited to cracking
refineries.

Flexibility cases
As stated in 1.1, the plant is designed to operate with 100 % Bach Ho case or 100 % Dubai
case. Furthermore, the unit is design to operate with different TBP cut point (see the
following sections on this point). In order to change from one case to another, the flow set

points should be changed to the values shown in this section, in order to achieve the
required product quality.
All elements of the CDU have sufficient sizing margins incorporated into the design to
achieve the flexibility requirements described below. For affected equipment, this flexibility is
considered as an alternative (i.e. not additional) to the design margins.
The pumparound flows and duties vary from Bach Ho to Dubai operation case, but inside
the same feed from one flexibility case to another the same value should be used. The flows
and duties are represented in the following table

When the plant is operating with the minimum naphtha flexibility case for both crude oils, a
Naphtha recirculation from P-1110 to T-1101 head via line PL-110080 is required, in order to
avoid water condensation in T-1101 top trays. The amount of naphtha recirculated varies
from one case to another.

Kerosene normal cut point range of 165 C to 205 C can be varied to achieve product
requirements. In order to maximise scope for producing kerosene of acceptable quality; the
CDU is designed to produce a minimum TBP cut range of 170 C to 200 C. Additionally, in
order to maximise kerosene production, and if permitted by product quality considerations,
the CDU is designed to produce a maximum TBP cut range of 160 C to 210 C.

In order to potentially improve diesel blending flexibility, the CDU is designed to achieve a
TBP cut point of 340 C between the light gas oil and the heavy gas oil products. Also, in
order to provide additional flexibility for the campaign production of military diesel, the CDU
is designed to achieve a TBP cut point of 320 C between the light gas oil and heavy gas oil
products.
Based on the above, three operating cases have been considered: Maximum light gas oil
production (TBP cut range of 200 C to 340 C), minimum light gas oil production (TBP cut
range of 210 C to 320 C) and maximum heavy gas oil production (TBP cut range of 320 C
to 370 C).
These flexibility cases flowrates are shown in chapters 1.4.3.3.1, 1.4.3.3.2 and 1.4.3.3.3.

2. DESCRIPTION OF PROCESS
2.1. PROCESS FLOW DESCRIPTION
The Crude Distillation Unit consists principally of a Distillation Section which separates the
different products from the Crude Oil, and a Crude Oil Preheat and Heater section that raise
the temperature of the crude oil up to the necessary condition to carry out the distillation.
In addition, there are others sections that assist the process, such as the Desalter, the
Stabilizer, or the Vacuum system.
A detailed description of each section is shown bellow, sorted from upstream to downstream
of crude.
2.1.1.
Crude Preheat
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-101/102/103/106/107/108/109
Crude Oil is pumped from storage to the Crude Distillation Unit by the Feed Pumps P-6001
A/B/C. At the inlet of the unit, two trains of heat exchangers, (each train has two parallel
branches) separated by the Desalters (described in 2.1.2), utilize the energy available in the
system to raise the crude oil temperature.
The first train, (cold crude preheat) raises the crude temperature from 50C up to 138-133C,
corresponding to Bach-Ho and Dubai cases respectively. In order to maintain the same
crude temperature difference between the parallel branches, the entering flow to each one is
controlled by control valves, 011-TV-007A and 011-TV-007B, placed at E-1101 and E-1102
inlet, respectively.
Downstream the Desalters, the crude is pumped by the Crude Booster Pump (P-1101 A/B)
to the hot preheat train (second train), which raises the crude oil temperature from 136-131
C up to 283-277C, corresponding to Bach-Ho and Dubai cases respectively. In order to
maintain the same crude discharge temperature in each parallel branch, the entering flow is
controlled by two control valves, 011-TV-015A and 011-TV-015B, placed at E-1105 A-J and
E-1106 A-F inlets, respectively.
Table 21 summarizes the equipment involved in the preheat train and the hot fluid used in
each heat exchanger:

2.1.2.
Desalters
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-104/105/119/120
Inorganic salts are removed by emulsifying crude oil with water and separating them in a
desalter. The desalting system consists of one train of double desalters (A-1101-D-01/02),
which reduces the water extractable soluble salt content to 2.0 ppm wt (max.) and the free
water to 0.2% volume (max.) at Desalter operating temperature.
The crude oil containing sediments comes from the cold crude preheat (E-1101 A/H, E-1102,
E-1103 A/B and E-1104). The recycled water from the Second Stage Desalter (A-1101-D-02)
is injected in this crude inlet. This fluid enters in the first stage static mixer (A-1101-M-01)
which is a crude/water disperser, maximising the interfacial surface area for optimal contact
between both liquids. Downstream the mixer, the oil/water mix is homogenously emulsified in
the Emulsifying Device 011-PDV-503, upstream the First Stage Desalter (A-1101-D01). This
emulsion enters the first stage desalter where it is separated into two phases (crude oil and
water) by electrostatic coalescence. The desalted crude oil floats on the top of the vessel
and the salty water decants to the bottom where it is discharged to the ETP (Effluent
Treatment Plant).
The crude oil from the first stage (A-1101-D-01) is mixed with the dilution water coming from
E-1128 (optionally the water recycled from second stage, pumped by the Desalter Water
Recycle Pump P-1118 A/B, may be used for desalting improvement) in the second static
mixer (A-1101-M-02) followed by the second stage Emulsifying Device (011-PDV-506).
The degree of emulsion in each stage is adjusted and controlled by differential pressure
control loop across each emulsifying device (011-PDIC-503 / 011-PDIC-506).
This emulsion enters the second stage desalter (A-1101-D-02) where the separation is
produced by electrostatic coalescence again. The crude oil flows on the top of the vessel
while the water leaves from bottom and is recycled upstream the first stage desalter (A-1101D-01) by P-1118 A/B.
The desalter system is capable of treating the crude with only one stage in operation (any
desalter can by bypassed). However, the bypass of the complete system (two desalters
bypassed) is not allowed, shutting down the suction valves of P-1101 A/B (Interlock 011-SP815) if both desalter bypass valves are open.
To help the desalter dehydration and salt removal efficiency, and minimize oil content in the
water effluent, a demulsifier chemical compound is pumped from Demulsifier Storage Drum
(A-1104-D-12) by the Demulsifier Injection Pump (A-1104-P-23 A/B), and injected into both
the unit crude feed and upstream the second stage desalter.
Solids present in the crude are accumulated in the desalters bottom, so a "mud washing"
system is periodically used to remove these solids. Mud washing consists of recycling a
portion of the desalter water from E-1128 A/E to agitate the accumulated solids so that they
are washed out into the effluent water.
Desalter effluent is a combination of the periodically mud wash, produced water that came
with the crude, and the wash water resulting from the dilution and salts and other

contaminants removal. This desalter effluent is cooled down, first with fresh make-up water
in the Desalter Water Exchanger (E-1128 A-E), and afterwards in the Desalter Effluent Air
Cooler (E-1129). Finally, it is discharged to ETP (Effluent Treatment Plant).
Desalter Water Charge Pump (P-1119 A/B) pumps the fresh make-up water, from Desalter
Water Surge Drum (D-1109) to E-1128 A-E, where is heated up to 120C, before being
injected to the crude outlet from the first stage desalter (A-1101-D-01).
The source of the D-1109 fresh make-up water could be the Stripped Water System, Service
Water or Process Water from P-1121A/B. However, the use of Process water is restricted to
sweet crude oil processing.
2.1.3.
Crude Heater
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-110/111/133/134/135/138/143
In order to raise the temperature of the crude up to the necessary temperature for its
distillation (358-364 C, for Bach-Ho and Dubai case respectively) and vaporise part of
crude, a Crude Heater H-1101 is placed after the Hot Crude Preheat trains.
Heater H-1101 is a crude heater designed for 83740 kW duty. It consists of a double cell
cylindrical radiation heater and a single convection section. Process flow is divided at
entrance to convection section in eight symmetrical passes. After leaving convection section
flow is divided such that four passes are directed to cell 1 and the other four are directed to
cell 2. Each pass outlet is located at top of radiation section.
Additionally, remaining heat from flue gases is used to superheat low pressure steam in the
top three rows of convection section.
Radiation section is based on two identical cells of vertical tubes. There are 72 tubes per
cell, each of 17.9 m straight length spaced two tube nominal diameters. These tubes are
supported on the top and guided at their intermediate part and bottom. Crossovers from
convection to radiation section are external and welded.
Convection section located on top of the two radiation cells consists of eighteen rows of eight
tubes per row of process coil and three rows of steam superheating coil. The three bottom
rows of process coil (shock rows) are bare tubes while the fifteen rows left and the three
superheating coil rows are finned tubes of fin height which increases the installed area
while the fin height is acceptable to burn Fuel Gas and Fuel Oil.
Each burner includes a self inspirating pilot provided with an ignition rod for automatic
ignition and a detection rod for ionisation flame detection. The air intake to the pilot is
controlled by means of a venturi that consists of an air door that may be adjusted at field.
The amount of air allowed to the pilot shall be adjusted depending on the molecular weight of
the fuel burnt. When LPG is burnt in the pilot the venturi shall be partially open and adjusted
by looking at the flame. Only when very low molecular weight fuels are used should the
setting of this venturi be adjusted. If low molecular weight fuels are burnt in the pilot with
excessive air intake, the noise will alert the operator that he must close the venturi.
Three dampers are located above the convection section to enable draft control at the
heater. In order to control draft, operator shall check draft at top of radiation section
(adequate value is -2.5 mm w.g.) by means of 011-PG-511. The operator can actuate on this
value by means of the three locally installed hand controllers (011-HIC-510A/B/C) that may
also correct any flue gases maldistribution occurring at the heater. Dampers have been
designed with a maximum stop in order to leave always some free area for flue gas pass.
Dampers position in case of air or electrical failure is fully open.
This heater has been designed to operate in forced draft mode. For this operation the heater
has been provided with two blowers (B-1101 A/B) located in parallel (one in operation and
one in spare). Both have been designed for 120% of design air flow. The air flow is
controlled with the inlet guide vane of each blower. A diverter (011-XV-500) has been
installed to isolate the spare blower whilst allowing passage of air from the blower in

operation. The diverter is positioned by means of a local handle and limit switches (011-XZL500) have been installed to give information of diverter position.
Heater duty is controlled by crude outlet temperature. The Furnace outlet temperature is
controlled by the 011-TIC-070. This controller sets the heat demand actuating on the set
point of the fuel gas and oil flow controllers and air flow controller by means of a crosslimited arrangement. This way, when an increase in duty is required, the air flowrate is
increased before the fuel gas flowrate is increased. In addition, when a decrease in heater
duty is required the fuel gas is reduced prior to the air flowrate being reduced (cross-limited
arrangement). That way a sufficient amount of combustion air is guaranteed at all times
during operation.
This control scheme shall be followed at all times during normal operation. Only in start up,
may this control scheme be passed to manual mode under strict supervision of the operator.
The correct excess air shall be maintained at all times. This may require some adjustment
during operation of the air/fuel ratio by means of 011-HIC-077.
LP steam flow to superheater coil is controlled in order to obtain the desired LP steam outlet
temperature. Following elements are involved in this loop 011-TT/TIC/TV-063. Refer to
section 3.1.1.1 for superheated LP steam control description.

Crude Distillation
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-103/109/112/113/114/115/116/125/126128/129/
Partially vaporized crude feed enters the Main Fractionator T-1101, in the flash zone where
liquid and vapour are separated. Liquid leaving the flash zone is steam stripped to recover
light components and discharged from the column as long residue. Vapours leaving the flash
zone are fractionated into lighter products and three side streams, Heavy Gas Oil (HGO),
Light Gas oil (LGO) and Kerosene.
The lighter products (Gas, LPG and Naphtha) from overhead section are totally condensed
and route to the accumulator where naphtha is separate from water and gas, then the
naphtha is stabilized in a separate column where LPG is separated (See Section 2.1.5).
The three side streams are obtained by withdrawing portion of the main fractionators internal
reflux and are steam stripped in dedicated side columns (T-1102, T-1103 and T-1104).
The properties of each fraction can be varied as required, but only at the expense of
adjacent fraction. The basis for most product specification for crude column are derived from
ASTM method. This method reports the temperature at which certain portion of the material
is vaporized. A way for settling product specification is to state the maximum allowable
ASTM End Point for the fraction.
The endpoint of sidecut will depend on the quantity withdrawn. Changing the drawoff rate is
the way in which sidecuts are kept on endpoint specifications. Temperature of the drawoff
trays is a fair indication of the endpoint and experienced operator may vary the drawoff rate
to maintain a constant tray temperature if he wishes to maintain the same product endpoint.
To reduce vapour and liquid traffic through the entire column and improve heat recovery and
separation efficiency, four intermediate cold reflux or pump around are provided, Top pump
around, kerosene pump around, LGO pump around and HGO pump around
This tower has 48 trays divided in two diameter sections: the first one from tray 1 to 42 with
an internal diameter of 6700 mm, and the second one from tray 43 to 48 with a diameter of
4000 mm. The length between tangent lines is 42850 mm.

The tower operates in a pressure range of 1.5 (top) to 1.9 (bottom) kg/cm g, and in a
temperature range of 130 - 124 (top) to 349 - 354 C (bottom).

2.1.4.1.
Overhead Section
A top pump-around in the Main Fractionator T-1101 provides reflux to the top section of T1101 and maintains the overhead temperature at the required level. The Top Pump-around
Pump (P-1102 A/B) takes suction of the liquid from the tray 4 and pumps it via E-1112,
where the liquid is air cooled, and then routed to the tray 1. The heat removed in Top Pumparound Air Cooler (E-1112) is adjusted to control the overhead temperature by the control
valves UV-079 and UV-080.
The overhead vapour (124 C), after receiving injection of both corrosion inhibitor and
neutralizer chemical, condenses totally through the Main Fractionator Condenser E-1111 at
50 C. The outlet from this exchanger gravity flows to the Main Fractionator Accumulator
Drum (D-1103).
In D-1103, the water is separated from the unstabilised naphtha and drained to D-1106 by
the level control valve 011-LV-040. The unstabilised naphtha is pumped to the Stabilizer
column (T-1107) by the Stabilizer Feed Pump (P-1110 A/B) via the Stabilizer Feed/Bottom
Exchanger (E-1118 A/B).
2
Kerosene Section
Kerosene is drawn off at tray 15 and part is circulated in the preheat train (E-1102) via
kerosene Pump-around Pump (P-1103 A/B). In order to ensure that separation efficiency in
the main fractionator (T-1101) is good enough to obtain the required cut point between
naphtha and kerosene, the amount of heat removed in this exchanger is adjusted by the duty
control 011-UIC-029, using 011-UV-083/084 control valves which adjust the flow through the
heat exchanger and its by-pass. Then, the kerosene is routed back to the T-1101, at Tray
12.
The other part of the Kerosene, controlled by 011-LV-011 is taken to the Kerosene Stripper
(T-1102). This stripper consists of 10 trays and a Kerosene Stripper Reboiler (E-1110), which
uses the Heavy Gas Oil (HGO) pump-around as heat source. A facility for stripping steam
injection in the bottom of the tower is also available, but it is not necessary in normal
conditions.
The top vapour of T-1102 is returned to tray 12 of T-1101. The kerosene product in the
bottom is pumped by the Kerosene Product Pump (P-1107 A/B) to the Kerosene Air Cooler
(E-1114) and then further cooled in the Kerosene Water Cooler (E-1115) to required
rundown temperature of 40C (controlled by 011-TIC-122) for the KTU.

Light Gas Oil (LGO) is drawn off at tray 26 and part flows to LGO pump around pumps (P1104 A/B) and part diverted to LGO stripper.
LGO Pump-around Pump (P-1104 A/B) routes part of the LGO to the preheat train,
specifically to E-1106 A-F. In order to ensure that the separation efficiency in the main
fractionator is good enough to obtain the required cut point between LGO and HGO, the
amount of heat removed in this exchanger is adjusted by the duty control 011-UIC-032 using
011-UV-087/088 control valves which adjust the flow through the heat exchanger and its bypass. Then the LGO is routed back to the T-1101 at tray 23.
The other part of LGO, controlled by 011-LV-013, is taken to the LGO Stripper (T-1103). This
stripper consists of 6 trays and an injection of stripping steam in the bottom, which is
controlled by 011-FV-017.
The top vapour of T-1103 is returned to T-1101 at tray 23. The LGO product in the bottom
gravity flows to E-1103 (preheat train) and afterwards to the LGO Dryer (T-1105).
2.1.4.4.
Heavy Gas Oil (HGO) is drawn off at tray 38 and part flows to HGO pump around pumps P1105 A/B and part diverted to the HGO stripper.
HGO Pump-around Pump (P-1105 A/B) routes part of the HGO to the preheat train,
specifically to E-1109. Then, this HGO is used as the hot fluid in the Kerosene Stripper
Reboiler (E-1110). In order to ensure that the separation efficiency in the main fractionator is
good enough to obtain the required cut point between HGO and residue , the amount of heat
removed in these exchangers is adjusted by the duty control 011-UIC-031 (controls the
amount of heat exchanged in the E-1106) and 011-UIC-033 (control the overall duty
removed from the HGO) using control valves 011-UV-085/086/089/090 which adjust the flow
through each heat exchanger and their bypasses. Then, the HGO is routed back to the T1101 at Tray 35. The other part of HGO leaving tray 38 , controlled by 011-LV-016, is taken
to the HGO Stripper (T-1104). This stripper consists of 6 trays and an injection of stripping
steam in the bottom adjusted by FV-019.
The T-1104 top vapour is returned to T-1101 at tray 35. The HGO product in the bottom
gravity flows to E-1107 and E-1104 (preheat train) and afterward to the HGO Dryer (T-1106).
2.1.4.5.
Overflash Section
The flash zone is the feed entry point, coming from the heater, located between trays 42 and
43. The heater effluent is fed to the main fractionator column via a tangential nozzle to
ensure a good vapour and liquid distribution into the flash zone.
The hot vapour flows up through the tower where it contacts with colder liquid flowing down
through the tower.
Liquid from the flash zone flows down over the stripping vapour section where the light
components are stripped out.
2.1.4.6.
Residue Section
To strip off any light component that would be otherwise taken out in the residue stream,
striping steam is injected continuously in the bottom of the tower. This steam flow is
controlled by the flow control valve 011-FV-012.
The liquid level control in the bottom of T-1101 is controlled by 011-LC-007, through valves
011-FV-026/027/029 downstream of the preheat train. This control fulfils the required flow to
RFCC by means of 011-FV-029 (upstream of E-1120 A-D); the remainder of the residue is
routed to Storage by 011-FV-026/027 (split range control), after having been cooled to 85C
in E-1120 A-D.

T-1101 bottom Residue (at 349-354 C) is pumped to the preheat train by the Residue Pump
(P-1106 A/B). In particular, fractionator residue is pumped to the heat exchangers and
following this order: E-1134 A/B, E-1108 A-D, E-1105 A-J, E-1101 A-H (See 2.1.1 Crude
Preheat).
Heat is removed from the residue with water in the Residue / Tempered Water Cooler (E1120 A-D). After that, this water is air cooled in the Tempered Water Air Cooler (E-1133).
Tempered Water Pump (P-1122 A/B) recycles the water from E-1133, along with any
necessary make-up water from the Tempered Water Drum (D-1115), to use it again as the
cooling fluid of E-1120 A-B.
2.1.5.
Stabilizer Section
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-130/131/132
The unstabilised naphtha from D-1103 is preheated in E-1118, before entering the Stabilizer
column (T-1107), where the LPG is separated from the stabilized naphtha. This tower is a
two diameter column (1500 mm in the top and 2600 mm in the bottom), with 32 trays, a
Stabilizer Reboiler (E-1121) at the bottom and a top reflux system.
The top vapour flow is partially condensed in the Stabilizer Condenser E-1122 and then, it
gravity flows to the Stabilizer Reflux Drum (D-1104), where off gas, LPG and water are
separated.
The pressure in the Stabilizer is controlled by means of PV-068B, which allows the off gas
discharge to RFCC. In case of overload, 011-PV-068C opens to discharge the excess to the
flare system. Water level in D-1104 boot is controlled by 011-LV-050, which sends the water
to D-1103.
Part of the LPG is taken by the Stabilizer Reflux Pump (P-1114 A/B) and discharged to the
top of T-1107 as reflux. This reflux flow is controlled by 011-FV-036.
The other part of the LPG is pumped by the Stabilizer LPG Pump (P-1115 A/B) to Gas
Recovery in RFCC and its specification is controlled with a calculation set point as a ratio of
the flow to the stabilizer 011-FIC-032, with a correction for the pentane content in the LPG
stream as measured by 011-AIC-004. A separate line to LPG off-spec storage is also
available.
The liquid in the bottom of T-1107 flows continuously to the Stabilizer Reboiler (E-1121).
This heat exchanger uses High Pressure Steam (HP) as hot fluid, which has been previously
desuperheated in the Desuperheater (DS-1101) with high pressure Boiling Feed Water
(BFW).
The Full Range Naphtha discharged in the bottom is used to preheat the stabilizer feed in
the E-1118 A/B. The liquid level in the bottom of T-1107 is controlled by 011-UC-042 through
the valves FV-040 and FV-041.The Naphtha is further cooled in the Full Range Naphtha Air
Cooler (E-1126), and then, in the Full Range Naphtha Water Cooler (E-1127) before being
routed to storage.

Dryers
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-117/118/127
The LGO and HGO produced by crude distillation are routed to the LGO Drier T-1105 and
HGO Drier T-1106 respectively. Each column has 4 trays.
The LGO produced in the bottom of T-1105 is pumped to the LGO Product Cooler (E-1116)
by the LGO Product Pump (P-1112 A/B). This air cooler reduces the temperature of the LGO
to 55C before being sent to storage (TK-5115).
The HGO produced in the bottom of T-1106 is pumped to HGO Product Air Cooler (E-1117)
by the HGO Product Pump (P-1113 A/B). This exchanger along with the HGO Product Water

Vacuum Section
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-121/122/123/124
Vacuum system maintains a reduced pressure in the Dryers by Venturi effect. This system
consists of a Pre-Condenser (A-1102-E-30), and two stage After-Condenser (A-1102-E-31
and E-1102-E-32). Each After Condenser has a train of three parallel ejectors: A-1102-J-01
A/B/C for the first stage and A-1102-J-02 A/B/C for the second stage.
The purpose of the ejectors is to entrain tower overhead vapours and noncondensibles, by
means of medium pressure motive steam. The purpose of the condensers is to condense as
much steam and hydrocarbons as possible. Cooling water is used as cold fluid in the
condensers.
Condensate from all condensers is drained to the Drier Oil / Water Separator D-1106, where
the water is separated from the hydrocarbon phase. The hydrocarbon phase is pumped to
Slop by the Drier Slop Oil Pump (P-1120 A/B), and the water is pumped by the Ejector
Condensate Pump (P-1121 A/B) to the Stripped Water System (SWS).
The off-gas is routed to the Drier Off-gas Seal Pot D-1107 before being sent to the burners
of H-1101 along with any gas separated in D-1106.

Chemical Package
P&IDs: 8474L-011-PID-0021-136/137
Four chemical compounds are continuously used in Crude Distillation Unit. Points of injection
and a brief description are included below:
2.1.8.1.
Neutralizer:
In this case, a continuous dosage of 5 ppm (0.002 m /h) of neutralizer is injected to the
Fractionator (T-1101) overhead vapour line, upstream of E-1111 (8474L-011-PID-0021112).The flow will be adjusted manually by operator.
The chemical is pumped from the Neutralizer Storage Drum (A-1104-D-10) to the injection
point by the Neutralizer Injection Pump (A-1104-P-26 A/B).
2.1.8.2.
Corrosion Inhibitor
The corrosion inhibitor provides excellent carbon steel resistance to acid attack from H2S,
HCl, CO2, organic acid, SOx acids and HCN.
In this case there are two injection points:
The chemical is pumped from the Corrosion Inhibitor Storage Drum (A-1104-D-11) to each
injection point by the Corrosion Inhibitor Injection Pump (A-1104-P-25 A/B). A flow meter and
a valve are used to regulate the flow injected in each point.

Demulsifier
The demulsifier increases desalter dehydration and salt removal efficiency in order to reduce
crude unit corrosion. It helps to maximize crude rates by controlling emulsion build up at the
desalter interface.
In this case, there are two injection points:
The chemical is pumped from the Demulsifier Storage Drum (A-1104-D-12) to each injection
point by the Demulsifier Injection Pump (A-1104-P-23 A/B). A flow meter and a valve are
used to regulate the flow injected in each point.
3
Antifoulant
The antifoulant reduces process side fouling caused by coke, polymers, sludge, corrosion
products, tar, and other particulate matter.
The antifoulant is injected in two places:
The chemical is pumped from the Antifoulant Storage Drums (A-1104-D-13A/B) to each
injection point by the Antifoulant Injection Pumps (A-1104-P-24 A/B). A flow meter and a
valve are used to regulate the flow injected in each point.

Desalter package
The desalter is provided with grids and electrodes that create an electric field inside the
vessel. This electric field makes the water droplet coalesce to create larger droplets. Water
droplets, which are not submitted to external force, have a spherical shape, and are in the
lowest energy form. When submitted to a high voltage electroctatic field, the droplets are
distorted and form a dipole, positive charges in the droplet are attracted by the negative
electrode, and negative charges are attracted by the positive one. Two adjacent droplets
have an attraction for one another. The attractive force between them tends to draw them
together if the force is sufficient to break the emulsifying stabilizer film.
The coalescence between droplets in the electrostatic field is a very rapid process. After less
than one tenth of a second, the major part of the droplets are coalesced together.
An adequate electrostatic field means:
A correct size and a good repartition of water droplets in the oil (by action of the
emulsifying device)

Vacuum package
Ejectors are dynamic fluid pumps which use the energy of a primary steam (M.P. steam for
this unit) to maintain the flow of a secondary fluid by means of a jump in pressure. They
show the following advantages:
The ejector consists of three basic parts: nozzle, mixing chamber and diffuser. The
operating principle of a steam jet ejector stage is that the pressure energy in the motive
steam is converted into velocity energy in the nozzle, and this high velocity jet of steam
entrains the hydrocarbon and non-condensable from LGO and HGO dryers. The resulting
mixture, at the resulting temperature, enters the diffuser where this velocity energy is
converted to pressure energy, so that the pressure of the mixture at the ejector discharge is
substantially higher than the pressure in the suction chamber.
2.3. ALTERNATIVES OPERATIONS
2.3.1.
Normally the Kerosene stripper, T-1102, is operated with the reboiler E-1110. However, it
may be necessary to take E-1110 out of service while the unit is on stream. Low pressure
steam is provided as an alternative stripping medium to permit continued operation of the
stripper with E-1110 out of service. Under these conditions the kerosene product will be
routed to crude recirculation header.
To take E-1110 out or service, please refer to section 7.6
2.3.2.
Normal operation is to process the crude oil feed through both desalters in series to minimise
the amount of salt carried forward to the hot downstream heat exchangers, furnace and the
downstream equipment, and to meet the sodium specification in the RFCC feed. Wash water
normally flows counter current to the oil through both desalters in series, before being routed
to the refinery Effluent Treatment Plant.
The desalters are designed for on-line desludging. However, it may become necessary for
operational and / or maintenance reasons to shutdown one or other of the desalters. Both
the oil and the wash water pipework are configured so that either desalter may be operated
on its own while the other can be drained, valve isolated and blinded.
Refer to Normal Shutdown section 7.7 for desalter isolation procedure.
2.3.3.
It could be necessary to isolate the LGO drier for maintenance or other causes. The actions
needed to isolate this item are the following:
Close the drain and change the spectacle blind position in line LGO-110227.
Close the locked open valve on line LGO-110224 in order to stop the vacuum on the
drier.
Open drier bypass line (LGO-110227) by opening first the valve close to the line LGO110216 and next, the valve close to the line LGO-110218.

The superheated steam temperature used to feed the strippers is controlled by 011-TIC-063
controller. The objective of this controller is to keep a constant temperature in the
superheated steam at steam coil outlet in the convection bank, by acting on two control
valves (011-TV-063A, and 011-TV-063B).
The controller signal is routed to 011-TY-063A or 011-TY-063B, which modifies the opening
percentage on 011-TV-063A and 011-TV-063B respectively, depending on its value. If the
temperature measure is lower than its set point, the controller will tend to close 011-TV-063A
and will open 011-TV-063B, in order to increase the steam flow through the steam coil in the
convection bank.

The control loop is the same for all the towers mentioned. The level controller acts over the
control valve placed on the hydrocarbon stream feed, so if the level value rises above its set
point the controller will close the valve. In the table below the controllers and control valves
for each tower are shown.

The objective of this controller is to maintain a constant level in the desalter water surge
drum (D-1109) by controlling the water flow inlet, by a three way split range level controller
011-LIC-025.
Each way of the split range refers to a water source:
Process water.
Service water.
If the level is near its high limit the controller will close the three sources by closing the
valves 011-FV-025, 011-LV-025A and 011-LV-025B. When the level begins to decrease, the

controller will start opening the process water (this water only can be used when the plant is
operating with 100% Bach Ho case).
If the level continues decreasing, the split range will try to open the stripped water control
valve (011-LV-025A) by 011-LY-025A. This control is routed to the minimum selector 011LY-025D, which selects the minimum signal (less opening in the control valve) between the
column level control from SWS unit and the D-1109 signal.
If the level still decreases the service water will be used by opening 011-LV-025B control
valve.
3.1.1.4.
The objective of water level control is to keep constant the water level inside the vessel. This
control is a cascade loop in which the 011-LIC-029 output signal is used as 011-FIC-025 set
point. The 011-FIC-025 is routed to 011-FY-025 minimum selector which acts on 011-FV025 control valve.
The hydrocarbon level is an on/off control, which starts the P-1120 A/B pumps when 011LIC-028 detects high level and stops when low level is reached.
3.1.1.5.
The purpose of this control is to maintain the level inside the vessel. The level controller 011LIC-070 output is routed to 011-LV-070, which regulate the inlet of low pressure boiler feed
water to enter into the vessel.
3.1.1.6.
This control loop is used to maintain constant the water level on D-1103. This controller 011LIC-040 is routed to 011-LV-040 that is placed on the water outlet line, so if level increases
inside the vessel the valve will open.
3.1.1.7.
This control is similar to the explained in 3.1.1.6 D-1103 water level control, the controller
011-LIC-050 output is routed to 011-LV-050, which is placed on the water outlet line.
3.1.1.8.
The purpose of this controller is to keep constant the stabiliser feed temperature. The
controller 011-TIC-121 output is routed to bypass control valve 011-TV-121. If the feed to
stabiliser temperature decreases, the controller will close the control valve, in order to
increase the flow through the heat exchanger E-1118 A/B.
3.1.1.9.
The objective of this control is to maintain constant the bottom temperature of the stabiliser.
This is a cascade control loop in which the temperature controller 011-TIC-113 output is
used as 011-FIC-034 set point.
If the bottom temperature decreases the controller will increases the 011-FIC-034 set point,
in order to increase the steam flow to the stabiliser reboiler E-1121.
3.1.1.10.
The purpose of this controller is to keep constant the temperature at desuperheater outlet.
This is a cascade loop in which the controller 011-PIC-201 output is routed to the 011-TIC301 set point. The temperature controller acts over 011-TV-301 control valve, in order to
ensure the steam is saturated at desuperheater outlet.
3.1.1.11.

This control loop ensures that the control valve 011-PV-143 is closed before the pump P1120 A/B starts. As the pressure increases, due to the fact that the pump P-1120 A/B has
started, the controller 011-PIC-143 starts to open the control valve 011-PV-143. When the
pump is stopped the controller 011-PIC-143 closes the valve 011-PV-143.
3.1.1.12.
The objective of this controller is to ensure that the atomising steam pressure at burner inlet
2
is 2.1 kg/cm higher than the fuel oil pressure at burner inlet. If the pressure difference
2
measured by the controller 011-PDIC-121 is lower than 2.1 kg/cm the controller will open
the steam control valve 011-PV-121, in order to increase the steam pressure at heater inlet.
3.1.1.13.
Both desalters, A-1101-D-01 and A-1101-D-02, are provided with level controls, 011-LIC-503
and 011-LIC-506 respectively. The output signal of 011-LIC-503 is used to regulate the
effluent water control valve 011-LV-003. The other controller, 011-LIC-506 is used to
regulate the water recirculation control valves 011-FV-005 and 011-FV-004 or, in case the
first desalter is by passed, to regulate the effluent water control valve 011-LV-003 by the
selector 011-HS-001.
The control valves for both desalters are placed in the discharge line, so an increase in the
vessel level will open the control valves.
3.1.1.14.
The pressure inlet at the vacuum package A-1102 is adjusted by the controller 011-PIC-049
which signal is routed to 011-PV-546 control valve. If the pressure at the package inlet is
lower than its set point, the control valve will increase the recirculation flow between A-1102J-01 A/B/C outlet and A-1102-E-30 outlet, via PV-110147.
3.1.2.
Shutdown philosophy
The Emergency Shutdown System (ESD) provides trips and interlocks for preventing or
controlling emergency situations which could give rise to hazardous situations leading to
injuries to personnel, significant economic loss and/or undue environmental pollution.
Uncontrolled loss of containment is prevented by the provision of pressure safety relief
valves and by the ESD system which automatically bring the relevant part of the plant to a
safe condition.
A trip or interlock is composed of one or more initiators and one or more actions for
preventing hazards. Each trip or interlock shall be provided with a reset and where
necessary an operational override for start-up.
In general if an interlock is invoked, the interlock action shall be held on until all initiators
have returned to the safe state and the interlock reset has been pressed.
In some cases part of the trip action is to set a flow or level controller to manual with its
output set to 0% (closed) via the serial link to the DCS from the ESD System. This is strictly
not part of the trip action but is done to prevent the operator restarting with the control valve
fully open with maximum integral action. In these cases, the operation on the controller is not
included in the description of the purpose of the trip but is included in the list of actions.
The following descriptions should be read in conjunction with the CDU P&IDs (8474L-011PID-0021-001 / 138).

3.3.
PROCESS VARIABLES
This purpose of this chapter is to explain the main variables in Unit control.
The variables described are: CDU feed rate, fired heater outlet temperature, main
fractionator overhead temperature, pumparounds duty and stabilizer bottom temperature.
3.3.1.
November 2008
Rev.

Chapter : 3
Page

The unit is fed by the crude charge pumps in unit 60. The crude oil flows through the cold
preheat train and enters into the desalter. In order to keep constant the desalter pressure,
the crude oil flow at the crude charge pumps is set to the same flow as the measure at the
fired heaters (011-FIC-069), by the controllers 011-FY-092 and 011-HY-002.
If the pressure in the desalter increases the inlet flow from crude charge pumps will be
reduced.
3.3.2.
This variable is very important, due to the fact that the column overflash is highly dependent
of this temperature. If an increase in duty is required, the air flow is increased before the fuel
rate is increased. On the other hand, if a decrease in heater duty is required, fuel flow rate is
firstly reduced and secondly air flow rate is reduced. This control scheme ensures that the
fired heater is always operating with an air excess, to ensure a good combustion and avoid
risk of after burning in the stack.
3.3.3.
The overhead vapour temperature is controlled by the amount of heat removed from the top
pumparound circuit. This temperature is important because the overhead product naphtha
end point can be adjusted by changing the set point. If the temperature is higher than the set
point, the top reflux duty will increase. As a result the overhead product end point and
quantity will be reduced. On the other hand, if the temperature is lower than its set point, the
overhead product end point is lower than it should be and the control system will decrease
the top pumparound duty. So, if an increase in the overhead vapour product end point and
quantity is desired, the top pumparound temperature set point will be increased.
3.3.4.
The column operating pressure depends on the pressure controlled at the main fractionator
accumulator drum D-1103. The operating pressure of a distillation column is related with the
relative volatility of the components to be separated in the different streams. Relative
volatility is a measure of the differences in volatility between 2 components, and hence their
boiling points. It indicates how easy or difficult a particular separation will be. As pressure
increases the relative volatility approaches to one. This means that the vapour pressure
characteristics of the components are more similar, and therefore they are more difficult to
be separated.
In addition, if the remaining variables keep constant, an increase in the column pressure will
decrease the overflash and therefore the internal column flow and the separation achieve will
be lower.
3.3.5.
Pumparounds.
Pumparounds must be well controlled to obtain specific products. Pumparound duty control
is essential to keep internal liquid and vapour flow inside the column. The control is acting on
the recycled product flow to the column, and on the total pumparound duty (through duty
controller).
Pumparounds are critical to maintain the optimum vapour/liquid rates in the fractionation of
the column. Inadequate pumparound heat removal and poor pumparound distribution will
result in higher column pressure, poorer fractionation and an increase in the flash zone
pressure. Excessive pumparound heat removal may result in difficulties in maintaining some
end point and may cause internal flooding.
3.3.6.

Specification Adjustement.
The principal specifications to which the products from the fractionator can be adjusted are
the boiling point ranges and the flash point. In general, if the fractionation is good, the end
boiling point of a side-cut equals the initial-point of the next heavier product plus a gap. A
gap is the result of a good fractionation; however overlap is more normal and will increase as
fractionation efficiency decrease. Product withdrawal flow rate are adjusted to provide the
required end points for the products and are generally set up from the top of the column
working down.
As a general rule, increasing the drawoff rate will raise the end point of the side stream cut
whilst decreasing the drawoff rate will lower its end point. An indication of the end point is the
draw off temperature of the stream leaving the column. Increasing the product withdrawn,
increases the draw off temperature and the product end point
The flash point of LGO, and HGO products can be modified by adjusting the flow of stripping
steam via, FIC-017 and FIC-019 respectively (to increase the flashpoint the stripping steam
has to be increased). However, the stripping steam can only be increased to the point where
it starts to interfere with the end point of the next higher product. If a further increase in the
flashpoint is required, other changes must be made, allowing an increase of the end point of
the next higher product.
Kerosene flash point can be adjusted by the kerosene stripper reboiler E-1110 duty via 011UIC-031 or, in case reboiler E-1110 is out of service, with steam flow via 011-FIC-015.
The specific gravity is directly related to initial and final product boiling point, so changing the
products yields is required to achieve this specification.
The freeze point is related to chemical composition of the product. As final boiling point
increases, the paraffin content in the product increases too, so the freeze point obtained will
be higher.
If residue entrainment occurs HGO can get black colour. This means that the washing
section (between HGO draw off tray and flash zone) doesnt have enough liquid flow. It is
necessary to increase the overflash or reducing the HGO draw off rate.
3.3.7.
Increasing this flow rate, it is possible to decrease the content of lighter fractions still present
in the residue, increasing flash point and the initial boiling point of the residue. The stripping
steam flow, controlled by 011-FV-012 will affect temperature of the flash zone and amount of
overflash.
3.3.8.
Overflash
Overflash is that portion of the feed which is vaporized in addition to the overhead and
sidestream products. The overflash condenses on the wash section plates and returns to the
flash zone and bottoms stripping section. Its purpose is to prevent coke deposition in the
wash section plates and preventing entrainment of residue up into HGO section, which
would result in off spec HGO.
The CDU is designed for a minimum of 5% overflash.
3.3.9.
Stabilizer temperature

The temperature in the top section at constant pressure defines the quality of the LPG
product; this temperature is controlled on E-1122 (auto variable pitch controller). Settling this
control at a lower temperature will decrease LPG C5 content and will increase the tower
reflux. Increasing this temperature will increase quantity and C5 content in the LPG and will
reduce the reflux rate.

3.4.1.1.
Objective
The objective of this system is to control the level in the bottom of the Main Fractionator
column and route as much of the outgoing atmospheric residue to the RFCC as is required

The level in the Main Fractionator, T-1101 is controlled by a typical Xxx40 three way split
range level controller 011-LIC-007 (direct acting). In the low range (0-33%) the signal from
011-LIC-007 goes to low selector 011-LY-007B, which selects between 011-LIC-007 and the
feed requirement of the RFCC to control the flow to the RFCC. In the mid range (33-67%)
011-LIC-007 resets the set point of 011-FQIC-026 and in the high range (67-100%) 011-LIC007 resets the set point of 011-FQIC-027.
011-FQIC-026 and 011-FQIC-027 are parallel controllers used to regulate the flow of residue
to storage. 011-FV-026 is a smaller valve than 011-FV-027 and will normally be sufficient to
control the amount of residue to storage whilst the RFCC is on-line. In the event that the
RFCC is off-line then 011-FQIC-026 will be fully open and 011-FQIC-027 will control the flow
to storage.
The RFCC feed is controlled by a split range level controller, which takes flow preferentially
from the CDU by cascading onto 011-FQIC-029 via 011-LY-007B. If there is not enough
flow coming from the CDU then flow is taken from storage by acting on a flow controller FIC402 in the line from storage.

Control of level in T-1107 is by split range controller 011-LIC-042 (direct acting). In the low
range, 011-LIC-042 acts on 011-FQIC-040 through low selector 011-LY-045 to control the
flowrate to the NHT. In the high range, 011-LIC-042 acts on the rundown of full range
naphtha to storage. Low selector 011-LY-045 is used to select between T-1107 level
controller output and the full range naphtha requirement of the NHT from 012-PIC-001. The
output from 012-PIC-001 (reverse acting) is split range. In the low range naphtha is taken
from the CDU via 011-LY-045 and in the high range naphtha is taken from storage by acting
on 012-FIC-001.

024-FY-007, therefore adjusting the flow of feeds from CDU Units (HGO and LGO) in the
target ratio.
Total LGO flow, from the CDU to both the LCO HDT and Refinery storage, is controlled at a
constant value by the action of a flow calculator that resets the set point of 011-FQIC-020 by
subtracting the flow of LGO to the LCO HDT (024-FIC-003) from the operator input.
Similarly, total HGO flow, from the CDU to both the LCO HDT and Refinery storage, is
controlled at a constant value by the action of a flow calculator that resets the set point of
011-FQIC-028 by subtracting the flow of HGO to the LCO HDT (024-FIC-002) from the
operator input.

Control of level in T-1801 is by split range controller 018-LIC-009 (direct acting). In the low
range, 018-LIC-009 acts on 011-LV-025A through 018-LY-009A and low selector
011-LY-025D to control the flowrate to the CDU. Low selector 011-LY-025D is used to select
between T-1801 level controller output and the requirement for water from the level
controller, 011-LIC-025, on the Desalter Water Surge Drum D-1109. In the high range,
018-LIC-009 acts on the control valve through LY-009B in the rundown to effluent treatment.
Control of level in D-1109 is by split range controller 011-LIC-025 (reverse acting). In the low
range 011-LIC-025 acts on the control valve in the line from the Drier Oil/Water Separator
Drum D-1106, via low select 011-FY-025, which restricts the maximum flow to that set by
011-FIC-025. In the middle range 011-LIC-025 controls the flow from the SWS as described
in the paragraph above. In the high range, 011-LIC-025 opens the control valve on the
service water supply trough 011-LY-025B.

NORMAL START-UP
6.1.
SUMMARY OF START-UP
November 2008
Rev.
:1
Chapter : 6
Page
: 1/6
The following highlights the usual steps to follow during a normal start-up of the
Crude Distillation Unit.
6.2.
Purge and inert the unit as is indicated in the section 6.3 Purging and Inerting.
By pass the desalters by means of opening locked closed valves in lines PL110104 and PL-110105, and the crude booster pumps (P-1101 A/B) by means
of opening the line PL-110111. Key Interlock 011-SP-815 prevents of mistakes
on this operation since pump suction will be blocked whenever both desalters
are by-passed.
Charge the unit with straight run (SR) flushing oil as far as the Main
Fractionator bottoms, T-1101, until normal column base level is established.
With the Residue Pump P-1106 A/B, charge the Main Fractionator draw off
trays and pumparounds with flushing oil (through the line PL-110073).
With the residue pump, P-1106 A or B, circulate the SR flushing oil from the T1101 bottoms back to the crude tankage (by means of the crude recirculation
header). Allow the unit to stand with flushing oil for about three hours while
draining water from low points.
When all main fractionator T-1101, and stabilizer T-1107 products, are on
specification, route them to the designated units or their appropriated tankage.
When all the products are correctly routed, gradually increase the crude charge
rate to the required rate.
FINAL PREPARATIONS
The final preparations described here are to be carried out from the point where
the plant is cold, air is in the plant equipment and piping and all the battery limit of
the unit remains blinded and also at the in plant refinery fuel oil and fuel gas
locations
Prior to the final preparations, all preliminary checks will have been carried out for
commissioning or a start-up following turnaround. Other start-ups from cold will
incorporate preliminary checks as applicable.
The preliminary checks for a production start-up are:
1. All concerned have been informed of the proposed time of start-up.
2. All vessels internals are installed, gasketed, and any internal tests carried out
properly.
3. All lines and equipment have been cleaned out and all flanges and manways
are bolted up with the correct gaskets, and equipment blinds removed or swung
open.
4. Strainers are installed where required and orientated correctly. Temporary fine
mesh strainers are installed for initial operation.
5. Orifice plates; tab diameters checked against data sheets and oriented properly
6. All control valves have correct flow orientations and have been stroked and left
closed on manual. Their by-passes checked as tightly shut-off.

Make a final check to remove or swing out of use any isolation blinds at unit
equipment or in lines, except for heater fuel gas and fuel oil lines. Check
distance spools are made up or disconnected per check list. Recheck all
relief systems are in an operable position, any upstream and downstream
isolation blinds removed, and where double relief valve arrangement exists that
the installed valve in the system has its isolation valves in the locked open
position.
Establish start-up steam flow to the steam superheated coil in the convection
bank, and vent to atmosphere through the heater steam silencer SL-1101.
Steam inlet to T-1101 and lateral strippers (T-1102, T-1103 and T-1104)
remains blocked and vents located downstream check valves will be opened
on each tower.
Charge the tempered water circulation system by filling first D-1115 (which has
to be previously filled with nitrogen) with BFW (up to an appropriate level) and
then initiate circulation via starting P-1122 A or B when pressure in vessel is
checked correct. Prior to start the pump, ensure that Pressure controller has
been put on automatic.
Charge the desalter water charge drum, D-1109, with service water via the
supply line: SW-116605.

Withdraw the fuses and lock off the power supply to the Desalter.
Displace air from the Desalters, A-1101-D-01 and D-02, by filling them with
water or nitrogen according to vendors operating manual (8474L-011-A50160814-001-002).
Steam purge the remaining oil pipework, exchangers, passes through the
Crude Charge Heater, H-1101, and the main Fractionator, T-1101, until all air
is displaced, draining regularly condensate from low points.
Close all low point condensate drains, close all steam vents, open up nitrogen
and then isolate steam injection points in quick succession. Nitrogen will
replace the condensing steam.
HEATER START-UP
For crude charge heater H-1101 Start-up, follow the procedure developed by
vendor (8474L-011-A3501-0110-001-003).This procedure, describes the steps for
a safe heater purge, pilots and burners ignition. It has to be used together with the
Start-up P&ID: 8474L-011-A0103-001-002. These documents have been included
in attachment 2.
6.5.
HEATING UP
In this section some references are made to short, intermediate and long path on
the unit. For better comprehension of the start-up procedures, a marked copy of
the affected P&IDs is attached showing the sections referred as short,
intermediate and long path. These drawings have been included in attachment 2.
The following steps must be followed in order to increase the temperature within
the unit:
1.- Start the flow of LP steam through the superheater coil . The stream
inlets to the main fractionator, T-1101, and to the strippers, T1102/1103/1104, shall be closed and steam vent to the atmosphere (via
heater steam silencer SL-1101) shall be opened.
2.- With the residue pump P-1106 A/B, establish the circulation at minimum
pump rate of SR flushing oil from the T-1101 bottoms to the heater inlet,
and back to the T-1101, via short path (through the recirculation line 6-PL110072-B1AP-PP). Light all the H-1101 pilots, and some furnace burners
to gradually increase the circulating oil temperature to about 100C (before
starting H1101, override BSL 501-508 and BSL 509-516, reset the ESD
level). This temperature to be monitored by simultaneous reading on DCS
screen of the 011-TI-224 to 011-TI-231 and by 011-TIC-070. For details
refer to the charge heater start-up procedure (8474L-011-A3501-0110-001003).
3.- While maintaining the same circulation rate, divert the SR flushing oil
gradually to the battery limit and from unit battery limit to upstream of E1101 A-H and E-1102 via long path, (through the recirculation line 6-PL-

4.- Introduce crude oil at the minimum rate into the preheat train (with the
desalters and crude booster pump bypassed) displacing the SR flushing oil
back to the crude tankage through the lines PL-110063 and PL-110122
(crude recirculation header).
6.- When the crude preheat train is at about 100C, revert to short path
circulation and gradually raise the heater outlet temperature up to 270C
maximum. Then, switch to intermediate path, maintaining heater outlet
temperature at 270 C. All burners will require to be lighted prior to
increase the temperature to 270C.
7.- Start pumparounds: P-1102 A or B (top p/a) and air-cooler E-1112, P1103 A or B (kerosene p/a), P-1104 A or B (LGO p/a), P-1105 A or B
(HGO p/a) as levels build up on the draw off trays.
8.- If the heater refractory has not been dried out (see point 5.5 for heater
refractory dry-out procedure) during the initial start-up while circulating with
crude oil, gradually rise the heater temperature and dry out and cure the
refractory as necessary. Heater manufacturers instructions are described
in the 8474L-011-B1103-0110-001-001, included in attachment 2. Cool
down the heater for refractory inspection. Stop the crude oil recirculation by
stopping the reside pumps P-1106 A or B. Cut the steam to the H-1101
heater coil.
9.- Reduce, then stop the intermediate path circulation and restart the fresh
crude oil circulation.
Route the fractionator overhead vapour to flare initially. 011PIC-064 shall be put into manual mode and by-pass valve of
011-PV-064C shall be fully opened.
12.- Start injection of corrosion inhibitor into the top pumparound return
and into the fractionator overhead.
13.- Commission the first desalter, A-1101-D-01 and proceed to fill it with
crude, following the instructions given by the desalter vendor on its

Ensure that by-pass around the crude booster pump is lined up.
Start pump.
17.- Establish liquid levels in the kerosene (T-1102), LGO (T-1103) and
HGO (T-1104) strippers.
19.- Commission the respective LGO (T-1105) and HGO (T-1106) dryers
and line up with the LGO and HGO strippers, respectively.
20.- Commission the second stage desalter: A-1101-D-02 and fill it with
crude (for details refer to Desalter Operation and Maintenance Manual
8474L-011-A5016-0814-001-001).
22.- Fill the stabilizer sump and start steam to the stabiliser reboiler E1121. Thermosiphon action should begin.
23.- After establishing a level in the Stabiliser Reflux Drum, D-1104, start
total reflux back to the stabiliser T-1107 while pressure built up. The
Stabiliser overhead vapour must be routed to flare.
25.- Maintain the stabilizer bottoms circulating to the Crude slop tanks until
the Naphtha reaches the required specifications. Then, naphtha will be
routed to the specific storage and LPG will be routed to RFCC Unit.
26.- Finally, when all products are on specification, they will be routed to
the designed units or appropriate tankage, as is indicated in the 6.6
streaming products.

STREAMING PRODUCTS
As each process section of the unit is brought on line and up to normal operating
conditions, route off-spec products as follows:
6.7.
T-1101, main fractionator, off gas to flare, through 011-PV-064C. Since Off
Gas to RFCC Battery Limit is closed, 011-PIC-064 will send off gases directly
to flare.
Residue and all other liquid streams to crude tankage via crude recirculation
header: PL-110122.
Naphtha Stabiliser, T-1107, Off gas to flare. As in the case of the T-1101
gases, since the Off Gas Battery Limit is closed, 011-PIC-068 will actuate on
011-PV-068C to send off gas to the Flare.
When all main fractionator (T-1101) and stabiliser (T-1107) products are on
specification and correctly routed, gradually increase the crude charge rate to
the required level.
NORMAL OPERATION

7. NORMAL SHUTDOWN
7.1. SUMMARY OF SHUTDOWN
In order to proceed to a proper and safe shut down of the crude distillation unit, the
next steps and recommendations shall be followed:
Product streams will be routed back to crude tankage, via crude recirculation
header, or to appropriate off-spec storage in case of LPG. Then, the heater H1101 can be shutdown, as described in Section 7.3, and the stripping steam to
the main fractionator, T-1101, and to T-1103 and T-1104 (LGO and HGO
strippers respectively) also shutdown.
Once the Unit is in turndown mode, all off-spec products are diverted
to crude recirculation header, except LPG which has to be routed to
LPG off-spec storage.
In case of, for any reason, one product is off spec, the drainage
philosophy is as follows:
Note that only one product at a time shall be routed to the same slop
header (light or heavy). In the case that two products must be routed to
the same slop system, the unit shall be rather put under recirculation
back to the storage tank, as hydraulic will not allow sending the two
products to the same header.

Reduce the crude preheat train inventory by displacing the crude oil from one
of the desalters, A-1101-D-01 or D-02, by means of level controller 011-LIC506 and 011-LIC-503 Remember to isolate electricity FIRST. Refer to chapter
2.3 alternatives operations for one desalter operation mode and also to the
chapter 8 of Desalters operations and maintenance manual: 8474L-011A5016-0814-001-001.
Maintain unit pressures with fuel gas or nitrogen during cool down.
Cut crude oil feed by stopping the crude charge pumps P-6001A/B/C and
crude booster pumps, P-1101 A or B, and close the feed and product battery
limit valves.
Stop pump arounds on the main fractionator, by stopping the pump around
pumps: P-1102 A/B, P-1103 A/B, P-1104 A/B, P-1105 A/B.
Stop reflux to the naphtha stabiliser, T-1107 by stopping the P-1114 A/B.
Confirm that all concerned have been informed of the time of the shutdown.
Over approximately one shift (8 hours) reduce the feedstock flow rate to 50%
of the design by reducing FIC-069 Set Point 5% by step.
In the same time reduce the UIC031 Set Point from 2.8 to 1.4 MW and
reduce the stripping steam flowrate.
Reduce the number of operating burners in the H-1101 to maintain the T-1101
bottoms temperature but maintain all the pilots lit. During the cool down of unit
a maximum of three burners in each cell can be taken off-line, in order to avoid
a furnace trip.
Stop product transfer having first advised all receiving units of imminent
shutdown. Route product streams back to tankage.

Reduce fuel gas flow until closure of 011-PV-092, minimum fuel gas
flow will be maintained by the 011-PCV-072.
In case of H-1101 is operating with fuel oil, the atomizing steam will be
reduce automatically to the oil burners.
Maintain the pilots lit for a short time in order to burn any flammable
substance could remains in the heater.
Turn light off the pilots by closing each isolating valve. It is strongly
recommended to light off one or two pilots on one cell and then one, or
two, pilot on the other cell to compensate the loss of heat on the
chambers.
Stop flow of High pressure Steam to the E-1121, naphtha stabiliser reboiler.
Cut the flow of Medium Pressure Steam to the vacuum package, A-1102.
Cut the electricity of the desalter, transformer, which remains in operation and
drain it to slops.
The atmospheric residue, coming from the main fractionator bottoms, will have
been partially diluted by unheated crude coming forward. This product shall be
pumped away to crude tankage (see drainage philosophy described in Section
7.1).
Open up S.R. flushing oil to the fractionator, T-1101, and establish a normal
level in the bottom part (via 2 flushing connection). Reopen the crude unit
battery limit valve and pump SR flushing oil with the feed pumps from the tank
farm through the crude feed line to the CDU. Flush the crude feed line to the
desalters and fill them.
With the P-1101 A / B, pump the flushing oil from the desalters through to the
T-1101 bottoms and out to crude tankage or to heavy slops, via P-1106 A /B.
Continue with this circulation until displace the remaining oil, which will be
detected via operator monitoring sampling. Shutdown then the crude feed
pumps and close the CDU battery limit valves.
Re-establish SR flushing oil flow to the T-1101 bottoms. Circulate through short
path to the heater, and through long path to the start of the preheat train,
bypassing the crude booster pumps, P-1101 A and B. Pump this away to
heavy slops. Repeat as required over 4 or 8 hours. For short and long path
refer to marked-up P&IDs included in attachment 2.

Using block valves, isolate the smallest practical volume of oil bearing pipe and
/ or equipment containing the item to be maintained. Drain as much oil as
possible to the light or heavy slops system.
The black oil section of the plant must first be thoroughly flushed to heavy
slops. Drain the flushing oil. Black section of the plant covers Crude Oil,
Residue and Heavy Gas oil.
Open vents on tower and drums and start steaming out the flushed item to
remove traces of flushing oil. Periodically drain condensate while steaming,
and run the contaminated condensate to the oily water sewer.
The white oil section of the plant must be drained thoroughly to light slops.
Open vents on tower and drums and start steaming out the item. Drain the
condensate periodically to the oily water sewer. White section covers: Light
Gas Oil, Kerosene and Naphtha sections.
In order to prevent the cooling of steam in air fin exchangers and heaters,
damper should be closed and fan stopped.
Swing the spectacle blinds or replace the ring spacer with spades.
If the closed valves were passing, re-steam or re-purge the blinded section or
equipment.
Introduce stripping steam into the column by opening valve 011-FV-015. Prior
to open the inlet valve, low point drain and 1.5 vent valve will remains opened
until all the steam condensate have been removed from the line and line work
is at superheated steam temperature.
Close the inlet and outlet valves on the circulating HGO (lines HGO-110175
and HGO-110176), heating medium. Leave some time for the exchanger to
cool down.
Close the inlet and outlet valves on the kerosene to and from reboiler (lines K110241 and K-110242).
Drain the HGO to the closed drain by lines CD-118551 and CD-118552.
Blind the reboiler tubeside and shellside from all process lines.
Open the vents on the tubeside and shellside, and steam both sides of the
reboiler, routing oily condensate to the OW.
When checks are satisfactory, stop steaming, allow vessel to cool, recheck
atmosphere for hydrocarbons and hand over to maintenance.

To take the first stage desalter out of service, the following steps have to be
followed:
Switch the desalters level control by 011-HS-001 (at this moment the level
control 011-LIC-506 in the second stage desalter is controlled by 011-LV-003,
instead of 011-HY-003).

To by-pass the second stage desalter, the following steps have to be followed:
7.7.1.3.
Desalter maintenance
To remove the oil from the desalter being taken out of service, proceed as follows:
Isolate and pull the fuses from the electrostatic precipitators (refer to vendors
manual).
Adjust the oil / water interface upwards beyond the LIA high alarm by mud
wash water lines (SW-116618 and SW-116619 depending which desalter is
going to be taken out of service).The crude will be displaced by the mud wash
water to the second desalter, if the fist one is bypassing and to the crude
booster pump, if the second desalter is bypassing.
Sample the try cocks (SCC-5B-013 or SCC-5B-014) until the desalter contains
water only.
Close the valve on the crude outlet line (PL110012 or PL110015) from the
desalter. Close the water inlet valve to the desalter.
Vent the desalter and dispose of as much of the water as possible to the
desalter effluent (lines DEW-110265 and DEW-110271). Drain the remaining
water to the closed drain.
Ensure vent is open, and steam out routing oily condensate to the oily water
system.

Additionally, operator will cut electricity to desalters transformers and will stop the
M.P. steam to Vacuum package (A-1102),
Operator at field shall verify that all the ESD actions have been executed.
8.2. POWER FAILURE
8.2.1
In case of complete electrical power failure, all motor driven equipment will stop.
Only emergency diesel generator will remain as power source after 30 sec. of
starting. This will mainly ensure to put in safe shutdown plant.
8.2.2
In case of total loos of power in Substation 8B, Emergency Diesel Generator will
allow safe shut down of the unit. All controls in Substation, as well as DCS, are
supplied by UPS.
8.2.3
Supplies to motors are evenly distributed across Bus bar A and B, feed from
switchgear Substation 8B. Refer to single line diagram 8474L-001-DW-1652-118
and 8474L-011-NM-1601-001.
In case of power failure on one load, the motors connected to the other Bar that
are not online can be started within an acceptable period of time without upsetting
operation. Pump start-up will be automatic with control system set for auto-start-up.

Loss of a board is equivalent to total power failure. The only valid case is lost of
HALF bus bar due to earth fault in the bus-bar which is very seldom. Consequence
will be disruption of power to consumers directly connected to this half bus-bar (not
to 400V downstream switchboard when it happens to 6.6 kV because of double
radial feeding via 6.6 / 0.4kV TRF). Again, consequence will depend whether or not
motors / consumers are spared or not connected to the other bar.
8.3. STEAM FAILURE
8.3.1.
A failure on the refinery low pressure steam network implies the loss of stripping
steam. As first consequence, products will go out of specification. First action shall
be estimate the duration of the steam failure. In case of a long duration failure is
expected, unit rate shall be reduced and then the products shall be diverted to
recirculation header and LPG to off-spec storage. If failure is prolonged, a full unit
controlled shut-down have to be done. This failure also implies the loss of steam
flow through the furnace convection section, which does not implies any serious
consequence, due to superheated coil is designed for no flow conditions.
Steam tracing will also be lost, so in case of a controlled shutdown, lines should be
drained and flushed as soon as possible, in order to avoid plugging.
If the loss of steam occurs during start-up steaming/purging, open up nitrogen and
box-in the plant.
8.3.2.
The loss of the medium pressure steam implies the loss of motive flow on the
steam ejectors of the vacuum package, A-1102. Therefore, vacuum is lost and
both LGO and HGO drier bypass lines must be opened. If the steam failure is
expected to be prolonged unit feed rate must be reduced and then the products will
be routed to crude recirculation header.
M.P. Steam is also used to atomize the fuel oil. In the case that H-1101 is working
with both Fuel Oil and Fuel Gas, oil connection to burners will be closed, and since
unit rate has been reduced, Fuel Gas will compensate the loss of duty. If H-1101 is
working only with Fuel Oil, the loss of MP steam implies a Fuel oil trip due to low
differential pressure between MP steam and fuel oil, and the firing control system
will try to compensate the loss of duty by opening the fuel gas. If it is not possible
(no fuel gas availability), then H-1101 must be shutdown due to loss of
combustible.
8.3.3.
The loss of high pressure steam failure implies the loss heat source on the
Stabiliser (T-1107) reboiler, E-1121, and therefore, no vapour generation occurs in
the stabilizer column, so pressure will decrease inside the column and there will be
not enough pressure to send the naphtha to the battery limit.
First measure is to open the stabilizer bypass line (PL-110640) and then divert the
outlet streams to the following destinations:
LPG off spec from the Stabiliser reflux drum, D-1104, to LPG off spec.

A similar procedure will be followed: unit feed rate will be reduced and then
products shall be diverted to slops, and if failure is expected to be prolonged a
normal shut-down of the unit must be done.
8.4. INSTRUMENT AIR FAILURE
In the event of an instrument air failure, all control and on-off valves will fail to their
safe position.
If a failure occurs that affects one or a group of instruments, then the magnitude of
the upset will dictate whether to shutdown the affected section or continue to
operate via by passes.
If a total instrument air failure occurs, the unit must be shut-down.
8.5. COOLING WATER FAILURE
Under cooling water failure scenario, CDU products (Naphtha, Kerosene and
Residue) will be too hot for storage tanks, resulting in a dangerous increase of
vapour within the tanks. LGO and HGO will run out of spec since without cooling
water, vacuum package A-1102 will stop working and vacuum will be lost.
Therefore LGO and HGO will be routed to recirculation crude header.
In order to minimise the impact on storage, unit throughput will be reduced to allow
air coolers to reduce the products outlet temperature. Additionally oil movement
operators shall be advised that rundown temperatures could be higher than
normal, depending on the Air cooler capacity. If products cannot be cooled down
enough, the unit will be shut down.
In the case that the loss of cooling water is expected to last more than a few hours,
the lack of cooling on the rotating equipment may cause a mechanical damage.
Therefore, the unit shall be put under controlled shut down.
8.6. FUEL GAS SYSTEM FAILURE
The main consequence of a failure on the Fuel gas system is the reduction on the
H-1101 duty. Fuel gas failure is detected by the 011-PXALL-094 that activates the
Fuel gas Trip, 011-UX-005 B. Closing the ESD valves that isolate the Fuel Gas to
the Crude Charge Heater, H-1101, burners.
Once the fuel gas is lost, the subsequent actions will depend on the H-1101
operating case:
If H-1101 is working with a mixture of Fuel Oil Fuel Gas, the firing control
system will try to compensate the loss of duty by opening the Fuel Oil control
valve: 011-PV-118. If the fuel oil available is not enough to compensate, the
crude charge rate will be reduced.
If H-1101 is working with 100% Fuel Gas, the operator has to reduce the crude
feed rate and products will be routed to recirculation crude header. If the fuel
gas cannot be restored within a short period and/or fuel oil cannot be made
available the unit will have to be shutdown.

that activates the Fuel Oil Trip, 011-UX-005 C. Closing the ESD valves that
isolate the Fuel oil to the Crude Charge Heater, H-1101, and burners.
Once the fuel oil is lost, the subsequent actions will depend on the H-1101
operating case:
If H-1101 is working with a mixture of Fuel Oil Fuel Gas, the firing control
system will try to compensate the loss of duty by opening the Fuel gas control
valve: 011-PV-092. If the fuel gas available is not enough to compensate, the
crude charge rate will be reduced.
If H-1101 is working with 100% Fuel Oil, the crude feed rate will be reduced
and products will be routed to recirculation crude header. If this fuel cannot be
restored within a short period of time, the unit will be shut-down.
MECHANICAL FAILURE
If a spared item fails, first start the standby equipment. Then secure and isolate the
failed item and prepare it for maintenance.
If the failed item is not spared, whenever possible, by-pass and isolate the
equipment while continuing to operate safely. Throughput will be reduced if
necessary, and the equipment will be prepared for maintenance.
The following pumps: P-1101 A/B, P-1104 A/B and P-1106 A/B are protected by a
preventive Machine Monitoring System, which control certain parameters (vibration
and bearing temperature) and allows the system to warn in advance about a bad
performance of the machine.

Although this is a very unlikely scenario, operator monitoring and routine sampling
allows an early detection and therefore to minimize the impact downstream the
affected heat exchanger. Once the leak has been detected, the flow rates should
be reduced (when required) and the Heat exchanger should be by-passed, put
under maintenance in order to repair or isolate the tube or tubes.
On the CDU unit, the rupture of a tube affects mainly to the products, therefore, the
performance of the specified analysis for each stream will allow detecting any
major leak. For further details refer to section 12.1 Sampling and testing schedule.

Level within desalter vessels is maintained via level control 011-LIC-503 and LIC506, which controls the interface between the crude and the water phases. In the
case of failure of this controller (for instance: wrong level reading), 011-LV-003,
water to ETP control valve will move to full opened or closed position.
In case of valve full closed, 011-LAH-501 and 011-LAH-504 and 011-FQAL051 will warn the operator about this scenario. If this situation is not soon
restored, water will go through the crude outlet into the system causing salt
deposition on the pre-heat train and tray damage in the T-1101. Therefore,
operator action is required: 011-LIC-503 shall be put into manual mode and the
correct set point to keep the valve on the required position will be given by the
operator, or, if there is not a satisfying reply from the system, by-pass valve
shall be opened to re-establish the level on the desalters.
In the case of valve full opened, 011-LAL-501 and 011-LAL-504 will warn the
operator. If this situation is not soon restored, crude will not be properly
desalted and crude will flow to the ETP.
Due to the size of the desalter vessels, A-1101-D-01and D-02, the available time,
from the moment on any (high or low) level alarms are activated on the DCS
screen to the moment when crude (or water) leaks, is enough to allow an operator
to confirm the situation at field and then to proceed with the corrective actions
(estimated time: 20 mins). If failure can not be avoided between this estimated
time, operator shall decide between waiting until the problem is solved or closing
isolation valve 011-XV-015 via 011-XHS-015A.
Additionally, a full trouble shooting guide is included on the desalter package
Operating and Maintenance manual 8474L-011-A5016-0814-001-001, which
have been included in attachment 2.

freeze point and flash points (flash point alarms in case low kerosene flash point is
being produced) are monitored.
Additionally, the continuous supervision of the system parameters and the
performance of the tests described on the Sampling and testing schedule
(chapter 12.1 of this operating manual.) will allow the operator to detect and correct
any deviation from the product specifications.
In the case of a big deviation from the expected values, the first recommendation is
to reduce the unit feed rate in order to minimize the off-spec products flow and
then divert to LSO Header.
See point 3.3.6 for possible actions to be taken if products go out of specification.
9.7.5.
LGO pump-around control loop is described on the section 7.4 of the process
control narrative. The amount of heat removed from the LGO stream and the flow
of run down product in controlled via the 011-UIC-032.
A failure of this logic leads to an off-spec LGO and kerosene production.
The continuous monitoring of the system parameters and the performance of the
tests foreseen on the Sampling and testing schedule (chapter 12.1 of this
operating manual.) will allow the operator to detect and correct any deviation from
the product specifications.
If required, in case of a big deviation from the product spec, the unit feed rate shall
be reduced and the product diverted to the Heavy Slops in order to allow the
operator solving the causes of the deviation.See point 3.3.6 for possible actions to
be taken if products go out of specification.

In case of 011-LV-040 drives open. This scenario implies that the interphase
level is lost with a risk of Hydrocarbon carryover to the D-1106. In this case,
011-LXALL-033 will first alarm about the loss of level and then close the 011LV-040 via solenoid valve. This solenoid valve is activated by the ESD
Interlock UX-014. The field operator has to verify that 011-LV-040 is closed.
Once the interphase level is re-established on the vessel, operator will
maintain it on the expected values by means of the globe by-pass valve and
the 011-LG-037 until the problem on 011-LIC-040 is solved.
In case of 011-LV-040 drives closed. This scenario implies the risk of water
carryover to the stabilizer, T-1107. In this case, 011-LZL/LZAL-040 will warn
the operator about the failure of the controller and the closure of the control
valve. Field operator, by means of the by-pass control valve will restore the
interphase level until the problem on 011-LIC-040 is solved.

T-1107 reflux drum, D-1104, Water boot level controller (011-LIC-050) failure.
For level control description refer to section 3.1.1.7 of this operating manual.
In case of 011-LIC-050 failure, 011-LV-050 may go to full open position with the
risk of water level loss and LPG carryover from the D-1104 to the D-1103. An open
position alarm, 011-LZASO-050 will warn the operator about this scenario.
Although pressure control system on D-1103 (011-PIC-064) can manage the
pressure rise, field operator should isolate control valve to cut the LPG leak to the
flare system, and then maintain the required level on the water boot by means of
the by-pass globe valve. This valve is accessible from the local level indicator: 011LG-051.
