Costum made solutions
Almost any invention has been made due to costumer specific needs, although all has been based on the universal challenges below.
FPSO’ and FSO’ has an operational characteristic which varies a lot from traditional oil tankers, and loading un-loading rates are not always in the same range.
Major causes of variation in required venting rate.
- High gas evolution factor:
- Loading commences in empty tanks.
- Temperature difference between oil and inert gas
- Variation in loading rate.
- Oil field production decreases over time
- Unloading to shuttle tankers at high rate compared to production rate.
Major advantages of the P-V Valves and High Velocity valves manifold solution.
- High exit speed at all loading/production rates.
- Possibility of adding or reducing venting capacity for optimum operation
- “Custom made” with various sizes of pressure side and vacuum side valves
- High security due to numerous valves.
- Extra valves for spares when production decreases over time.
