The Utility generation P&IDs define the equipment, piping, process control and instrumentation
for generation of the utilities required by the process plant. Typically these will include Water
Systems (Raw water, Cooling water, Service water, DM water etc), Air Systems (Instrument, Plant
air), Inert gas systems (Nitrogen, Fuel gas), Steam systems, Effluent collection and treatment.

Offsites P&ID defines the equipment, piping, process control and instrumentation for the storage
and transfer facilities for feed, products, intermediates etc.

The O&U P&IDs are generally developed by the detail engineering contractor based on the
requirements of the process plant.

4.3 Utility Distribution P&ID:

This diagram shows the headers, subheaders, branches required for connectiong the utility system
from the supplier to the users within the plant. The layout of the diagram is based on the layout.

instrument details, piping requirements during the course of engineering must be kept in mind while
laying out the drawing.

The engineer shall try, as far as possible, to maintain the relative elevation between equipment
especially while depicting gravity flows.

Equipment numbers and description shall be entered at the top of the drawing.

All notes shall be numbered sequentially and placed in the right hand side of the P&ID.

in the pulsation bottles can be blinded if complete drainage via the pump line drains is possible.
10. In case of hazardous or toxic service the drains shall be hooked up to a closed drain system. In

2. Local temperature indication to be in visible from globe valve for ease of control.
3. If non-IBR (less than 3.5kg/cm2g design pressure) is used for tank heating no spec break is
required to be indicated. If higher pressure steam is used and condensate is drained to
atmosphere, spec break to be indicated downstream of globe valve.
4. Standard steam trap assembly draining to grade to be provided in case of no condensate
recovery.
5. When control of temperature of tank contents is required, control valve assembly to be provided
to regulate steam flow into the tank coil.
6. Standard steam trap assembly draining to grade or to condensate header to be provided based on
condensate recovery philosophy.

6.18 Typical floating roof tank installation

Refer to figure 23 for typical depictions of floating roof tank installation. Following notes are to be
read in conjunction with figure 23.
1. For flammable liquid, foam supply line to be provided around the tank & the foam supply line
shall form ring around the tank. The line size & the scope of supply of this are included in
vendors scope.
2. Floating roof tank shall have rim vent and breather valve. For flammable liquids all PVRV shall
have flame arrestor. Vendor shall decide the size & number of rim vents.
3. Tank shall be located in dyke wall.
4. Double deck type tank shall have pontoon manhole. The number of manhole & the size shall be
decided by vendor / mechanical.
5. Clean out door (rectangular type) shall be provided on shell.
6. All the nozzles on shell body of the tank except LSH nozzle shall be provided at a minimum
distance from bottom.
7. Tank shall be provided with level transmitter for measurement of low level. Low low level
alarm shall be configured in level transmitter. Tank outlet valves shall close & tank outlet pump
shall trip on activation of low low-level alarm.
8. Size of Roof drain nozzle to be decided by vendor.
9. Bleeder vent shall be used for out-breathing of air during initial filling & in-breathing of air
during tank draining. Tank isolation valves shall correspond to piping specification of the given
project.
10. Portable pump shall be provided for complete draining of tank.
11. Auto tank gauging system (ATG) shall be considered for floating roof tanks. This system
consists of measuring the level in the tank based on change in the ambient temperature of the
product stored. For this purpose the density transmitter shall be provided on shell at a minimum
level from bottom. Separate temperature element nozzle shall be provided on roof of the tank
with a dip pipe. Temperature & density transmitter signal shall be coupled with level transmitter
provide on roof. Output from level transmitter shall be taken to three places

Local indicator shall be provided at grade level outside the dyke wall.
Indication in DCS.
Indication on ATG panel provided in DCS separately.
ATG local indicators shall be mounted at the grade level outside the dyke wall.
12. Unexpected liquid movement alarm shall be configured in ATG.
13. Temperature indicator nozzle shall be provided with 4 steel well.
14. Radar type level indicator & level dip hatch shall be provided with 8 steel well.
15. Tank shall be provided with separate high high level switch. Tank inlet pumps shall tr
16. During roof drain choking, if liquid level on roof rises beyond the design capacity, the roof may
sink. To avoid such incidence an emergency drain is provided. In that case the rise in level
beyond the design capacity on roof cause the liquid to enter in the tank.

6.19 Truck loading arm

Refer to figure 24 for typical depictions of truck loading arms. Following notes are to be read in
conjunction with figure 24.
1. Overfill protection switch shall be provided on loading arm to avoid overfilling of truck while
loading the liquid. FCV provided at the upstream of loading arm shall close on activation of this
switch.
2. Provide funnel for collecting the loading arm drip.
3. Indicate the bay number.
4. Unloading hose with blind flange shall be provided in each bay to unload sick tanker.
Unloading hose length shall be 3 meter. Elevation of unloading line shall be 450 mm.
5. Parking switch shall be provided on loading arm to avoid opening of FCV provided at the
upstream of loading arm when loading arm is in parking position.
6. Drop down access platform shall be provided in loading bay & earth straps shall be provided in
case of flammable liquid.
