Minimize GHG emissions (methane) from compressor stations transporting natural gas through pipelines
Compressor stations for transporting natural gas can be the source of considerable greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (methane emissions) if not controlled. Oil and gas companies along the natural gas supply chain are under pressure to reduce GHG emissions. This article details the various sources of such emissions and the options available to control and mitigate them.
Case Study: Providing a proactive risk management approach for rupture mitigation valves
U.S. federal natural gas pipeline regulation 49 CFR 192.935(c) requires that operators perform a risk analysis to determine where the use of rupture mitigation valves (RMVs), such as remote-controlled valves and automatic shutoff valves, may be efficient to add protection to high consequence areas.
Svanehøj partners with Soudotec to enhance safety in Africa’s fast-growing LPG sector
In more and more African countries, governments and organizations are advocating for a switch to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) to improve public health and safety. Svanehøj and Soudotec have now teamed up to supply safety equipment to the growing African LPG sector.
ADNOC deploys pioneering AI-enabled process optimization technology
Following successful initial operations, ADNOC announced the deployment of an industry leading artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled process optimization technology--Neuron 5--across all ADNOC facilities across thousands of critical pieces of equipment essential for production, including compressors, valves and generators.
Protecting LNG processes
The LNG process chain includes several complex and diverse processes, from extraction, liquefaction and transport to consumption. To ensure the safety of these processes, pressure relief devices such as safety valves and rupture discs are required throughout various aspects of the LNG process chain to prevent serious accidents caused by overpressure.
