Oil & Gas industry relies on automated, mission–critical equipment and complex systems built upon their interaction and cooperation. To assure continuous operation and avoid any supervision, architects embed Distributed Control Systems (DCS), a.k.a. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, on top of their equipment to generate data, monitor state and make critical online & offl...

Plastic is one of the human needs in everyday life, as a place to wrap food and drinks, because plastic practical, clean, makes it easy for humans. also an artificial inorganic material composed chemicals that are quite harmful environment. To deal with waste, way needed, process waste into materials more useful have benefits nature, by recycling fuel, namely fuel form oil. By processing oil, b...

The measurement of total oil and grease (TOG) and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) in water and soil samples by means of infrared (IR) absorption is a widely used analytical procedure. It is relatively easy to use, requires little ancillary equipment and is sensitive enough to provide data on TOG and TPH content in the range of permissible concentration levels. Furthermore, IR instrumentation ...

As awareness of shipping’s impact on the environment grows, increasing attention is being paid to “operational lubricant discharges”. Such leakage of lubricating oil, in the course of normal operations, may occur both from underwater equipment (sterntubes, controllable pitch propellers, thrusters and pods, steering gear, stabilisers) and from above the waterline equipment (such as cranes, davit...

Maintenance strategies for subsea oil and gas production installations entail the use of specialized equipment and vessels to carry out subsea interventions. The costs for carrying out preventive maintenance are significantly lower compared to the costs of unpredicted failures where in some cases it is necessary to reduce or stop the oil production. Based on a literature review and inputs from ...

The aim of this study is to develop oil content measurement system using transmitted and scattered intensity. Two fluorescence analyses would be suggested with methods that it can use rapidly, continuously, conveniently and accurately in long-distance cruise vessels. The present paper consists of the structure of fluorescence measurement hardware and an interpretative analysis of experimental d...

Oil sand pumps are widely used in the mining industry for the delivery of mixtures of abrasive solids and liquids. Because they operate under highly adverse conditions, these pumps usually experience significant wear. Consequently, equipment owners are quite often forced to invest substantially in system maintenance to avoid unscheduled downtime. In this study, an approach combining relevance v...

Abstract Striped defects are a common type of in oil pipelines, divided into horizontal and longitudinal stripes, it is difficult to accurately quantify the results conventional pipeline leakage magnetic detection correspond their extent. In this paper, new pipe non-destructive testing equipment proposed designed based on principle using three-dimensional finite element simulation, field distri...

Introduction: Occupational nature, strenuous physical activity, shift work, spatial and geographical location, as well as support facilities and equipment, pose greater risks to individuals in the oil and gas industry, especially those engaged in offshore oil exploration and production activities. The purpose of this article is to explain the issue of health and well-being of oil and gas indust...
