Project Description

Region Lukoil-Nizhnevolzhskneft OOO, Astrakhan, Russian Federation
Dates 2018-2019
Scope Project scope included engineering and procurement of a centrifugal separator as a part of the fuel gas package unit.
Project Specific

Company had to ensure safe and reliable operation of the designed separator during the specified service life (35 years).

PASS software used PASS/EQUIP
How PASS software helped in the project execution

Calculation performed using PASS/EQUIP Vessel provided evaluation of:

  • wall thickness of shell and nozzles from the action of pressure under specified operating conditions;
  • strength in operating conditions and test mode;
  • loads transferred by equipment to supports and steel structures.

PASS software allowed a 4x reduction of man-hours of personnel directly involved in the calculations.
