In inerting and blanketing operations, maintaining a low oxygen level is vital in preventing explosive conditions from developing.

 Tunable diode laser (TDL) oxygen sensors operate directly in the pipe, vessel or tank, with no need for maintenance-hungry sampling and conditioning equipment. 

 Topics include:

• Challenges with extractive systems
• Benefits of in situ measurement
• Low maintenance needs of TDL analyzers

Nickel and vanadium in crude oil can be tested using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) with ASTM test method D5708B, but this method requires vigorous sample preparation and is very time consuming. Download our whitepaper to learn about a faster, easier, and less expensive alternative to ICP.

The IH2 technology* is a continuous catalytic thermochemical process that has been estimated to provide a very cost-effective route to produce fungible liquid hydrocarbon transportation fuels from renewable resources.

Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) teams have traditionally worked independently of one another. But the rise of digital transformation initiatives has forced organizations to rethink siloed operations. To achieve maximum business value, aligning the divided worlds of IT and OT can significantly accelerate IIoT's time to value. To learn how your organization can maximize IIoT value through an IT-OT alignment, download our new white paper.

There is a lot at risk when planning an STO event. Any flawed implementation can contribute to health and safety incidents, post-startup trips, and other failures such as scope creep, discovery work, budget overruns, safety concerns, and work delays.

It is important to carefully choose who you will be working with as you execute your STO. In this planning guide, you will learn about process improvement opportunities in your STO from beginning to end.

The keys to successful planning include:

• Removing guesswork from your worklist
• Reducing risks by preparing for discovery work
• Leveraging modern technology and expertise

Chlorine in crude oil can hydrolyze during processing to form hydrochloric acid. Many refiners rely on semi-periodic testing of inorganic chlorides. However, what if a desalter upset occurs or an organic chlorine slug is present in the incoming crude? Download our whitepaper to learn about 4 ways to monitor chlorine.

Although SSLNG expands the options for LNG’s availability, small-scale projects have a different set of technical and logistical requirements than larger facilities. The technologies, including the compressors running the refrigeration cycle, often can’t be efficiently scaled down. The multi-section technology employed by IGCs offers a flexible and economically attractive solution. 

It is essential to implement overfill Prevention Systems to minimize risk and improve safety. Preventing an overfill starts with proven solutions you can trust.
