1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Project Overview and Background
The Mellitah Plant receives crude oil, gas and associated condensate from Wafa and El-
Feel by pipeline. Both inputs are metered by separate independent systems. Oil is
processed to remove water and entrained gas before being sent to the storage tanks.
Stored oil is exported to tankers via the oil export metering system (4E-220-JM-008).
Condensate and LPG is received at the Mellitah plant from Wafa and NC41 via separate
pipelines.
The Wafa product is a mix of crude oil and NGL (LPG, C5+ and oil), NC41 product is
condensate only. Wafa product is processed to separate; stabilised oil, propane and
butane then metered and stored in separate tanks. The oil is exported from the oil storage
tanks mentioned in the previous paragraph. Propane and butane are exported separately
via independent metering systems.
NC41 condensate is treated at the plant to stabilise and stored in allocated condensate
tanks. The stored condensate is exported via an export metering system. Gas is received
at the plant from Wafa and the Sabratha platform via pipeline.

Figure 1 - Mellitah Complex

Mellitah Oil & Gas B.V. (COMPANY) intends to up-grade/replace the existing fiscal
Metering systems of Mellitah Complex to the most suitable metering system to increase
the accuracy and reliability and decrease the uncertainty.

2.4.4 Air barometric pressure

• Min: 936.7 hPa
• Max: 963.4 hPa

2.4.5 Wind

The frequency distribution of winds is the following:

• From EAST & E-N-E: 58%
• From WEST & W-S-W: 22%
• From NORTH: 18%
• From SOUTH: 2%

Therefore, the direction of prevailing wind is from EAST (angle sector 80° +
100°).

2.4.6 Basic Wind Speed & Exposure for Structural Design

The Uniform Building Code requires the basic wind speed for structural
design to be taken as the greater of:
• the "fastest-mile wind speed associated with an annual probability of 0.02
measured at 10 meters above grade"
• the 70 mph (112.7 km/h) minimum value set forth in Table 16-F of UBC.

Statistical evaluation of Zuara wind records of ten years indicates that the
latter value should be assumed as basic wind speed.

Notwithstanding the above, the Basic Wind Speed to be taken for Mellitah
shall be:
• 145 km/h and
• qs = 1.0 kN/m2 is the corresponding wind stagnation pressure.

The exposure shall be taken as "C" (flat and generally open terrain extending
0.81 km or more in any direction).

Wind erosion due to sandstorms has not been considered.

4. PROCESS DESIGN DATA

4.1 Operating & Design conditions
The following summary of process data details the design limits for the project. They have
been collated from site supplied information and subsequent independent spot
samples/analysis. Design tolerances of ±0.5% for density and ±5% for viscosity has also
been added to determine a suitable operating range.

Notes:

1. Noted from ENI report J-63-M-O-0002-00 W L G P Wafa Plants Coastal Plant

Operating manual that condensate pump operating flow is 2800 m3h. The design is
being evaluated considering the 4700 m3/h indicated by off takers as operating flow
rate and maximum operating capacity of pumps (5600m3/h).

2. Minimum allowable operating pressures during flowing conditions for each of the lines
refers to the mainline pressure immediately upstream of the metering skids inlet
headers. The values (in orange) have been calculated based on many factors such as
estimated pressure drop across the metering skids, maximum RVP values advised and
minimum suction pressures required for the sampling pumps to operate safely.

5. MAIN ASSUMPTIONS
The main assumptions are reported in following paragraphs (some of these items have
previously been discussed in the site survey report):
• H2S Levels
• Hammering/Vibration issues
• Corrosion/erosion of existing systems
• Pipeline Mixing for Sampling

• Pump Types used on Sampling Systems

5.1 H2S Levels

The H2S existence and potential leak was discussed with different relevant MOG
departments including Health and Safety, Environment, Fire and Gas and operations.
Several random readings were recorded at different plant locations during the site survey.
There are multiple H2S monitors installed at different locations around the MOG gas plant.
These monitors are set to alarm at when the H2S concentration reach 10 ppm. MOG safety
procedures are to evacuate the plant if the H2S concentration reaches 15 ppm.
All random readings recorded during the site survey using certified H2S gas detector were
below 0.2 ppm.
There was one incident of H2S leak in April 2010 when the gas flare was switched-off
because of fuel gas failure during this incident the H2S recorded was around 1300PPM.
To minimize the equipment corrosion and increase the systems life span the new metering
skids to be designed for an offshore environment.
This design for offshore would involve using marine environment instruments housings,
Stainless steel cable trays and Stainless steel Junction boxes. In addition, all equipment
will have a good quality offshore coating system with good quality checks during
production.

It should be noted that good onsite maintenance activities are also

crucial to the lifespan of the equipment with paint touch ups being
carried out as and when required.

In addition to the above NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 requirements will be applied. (where
possible).

5.2 Hammering/Vibration issues

(Condensate 4E-220-JM004 & Crude Oil Export 85-220-JM008)
This was investigated during the site visit in an attempt to determine the source of the
issues. Both skids had the same issue which occurred during ramp-up.

A thorough investigation was carried out on the following:

a. Inspection of the skid foundations.
b. Inspection of the off-skid supports upstream and downstream of the skid
c. Inspection of the skid supports
d. Review of the current operating procedures

The Crude oil system consists of qty 4 x 33% streams in a duty standby configuration. The
system design flowrate is 6600m3/hr which equates to 2200 m3/hr per stream. The startup
flowrate requested by the off-taker at 10,000bbl/hr (1590m3/hr)
From the information received by the system operators and by evaluating all process data
and upstream piping arrangement it was concluded that the source of hammering and
vibration is the high differential pressure across the streams flow control valves FCV’s
caused by very high flowrate.
The export pumps recycle line and FCV are too small even when fully open there are still
very high flow passing to the metering skid. During the start of tanker loading (ramping-up)
when the flowrate requested by the off-taker is around 10,000 bbls/hr (1590m3/hr) only
one stream is partially opened by the FCV at 35% open. The high flowrate from the export
pump will create very high back pressure across the FCV which in return lead to the high
vibration witnessed by the end user.

To eliminate the vibration, it is important to control the flow and pressure upstream the
metering skid by increasing the flow to pump recycling line and discharge tank.
One solution is to increase the size of the main recycle line FCV as well as the introduction
of pressure control valves at the new metering skid.
Also, the new metering system operation procedure should allow the system to start up
gradually and increase the flow low then build up gradually. Then at around 80% of the
max stream flow the next stream should open up as the flow increases. This practice would
avoid hammer and vibration.

5.3 Corrosion/erosion of existing systems

During the site survey, a section of pipe was cut from an operating stream on the
Condensate Skid 4E-220-JM-004 for metallurgical analysis. This was due to concerns
regarding the high levels of H2S advised by the client.
It should be noted however that no H2S was found in the sample taken to the SGS
laboratory.
The material was sent to the SGS accredited laboratory for analysis. This included
chemical analysis and Microexamination.
The material was confirmed as API 5L Grade B pipe. The pipe was tested as 12” sch 40
with a wall thickness of 10.3mm and a corrosion allowance of 3mm.
The Microexamination showed the wall thickness to be 8.85 to 8.8mm. This would indicate
a corrosion of up to 1.45mm. However, API 5L pipe has a wall thickness tolerance for pipe
wall between 4 to 25mm of +0.15t to -0.125t. The minus value equates to – 1.3mm.
Therefore, the pipe from the manufacturer could have a minimum wall thickness of 10.3 -
1.3mm = 9mm. This means the corrosion could be between 0.15mm (9-8-85) and 1.45mm.
Sensia advise the corrosion/erosion inside the pipe sample tested is acceptable based on
the duration installed and the corrosion allowance of 3mm.

5.4 Pipeline Mixing for Sampling

The pipeline mixing requirements are governed by the Manual of Petroleum Measurement
Standards Chapter 8.2 (API8.2) / ISO3171 sampling standards. Upon receipt of detailed
process properties (as detailed in section 4.1) we have now carried out detailed mixing
calculations to AnnexA of these sampling standards.
API8.2 Describes pipeline water dispersion as:

“The ratio of water concentration at the top of a horizontal

pipe C1 to that at the bottom C2 is used.
C1
A C1/C2 ratio of 0.9 to 1.0 indicates very good dispersion
while a ratio of 0.4 or smaller indicates poor dispersion with
a high potential for water stratification. C2

Calculations giving less than 0.7 should not be considered

reliable as coalescence of water droplets invalidates the
prediction technique.”

The following table summarises the results of these mixing sizing calculations:
Pump
Minimum C1/C2 Line Size Pump Power
Flowrate
Crude Oil Export 0.9 32” 212m3/hr 55kW
Wafa 0.9 12” 51m3/hr 30kW
El Feel 0.9 24” 92m3/hr 55kW
Condensate 0.74 26” 212m3/hr 55kW
Generally, Sensia will aim to size the mixing to achieve a C1/C2 ratio of 0.9 where possible.
In the case of Condensate above, due to the extremely low viscosity and density of the
fluid coupled with the large diameter of pipe section it is not possible to reach this figure,
however it is within the acceptable range as defined by API8.2 above.
The Condensate system will be further optimised to operate at the maximum operating
flowrate (as defined in section 4.1) to reduce the sampling uncertainty at maximum
flowrate.
The Propane and Butane systems do not require pipeline mixing. The Fast loop pumps on
each of these lines will be sized for a flowrate of 4-6m3/hr and will be fitted with 5.5kW
motors.

Sensia have a long-proven track record of using this type of magnetically coupled / seal
less pump in Oil + Gas applications worldwide and it is our preferred choice over
mechanical sealed pump designs.
Mechanical seal pumps require complicated seal support systems, so by using the seal
less design the system is simplified and has much lower maintenance requirements /
longer service intervals.
The main wetted materials of construction for the pumps shall be stainless steel (casing
and impellor), Alloy C276 (containment shroud/shell) with silicon carbide internal bearings.
The design pressure of the pumps shall be 18.9 bar which is in accordance with the project

12.4 Cable Segregation

Whenever possible, cables should be segregated in compliance with BS 6739 Section 15.13
as shown in the table below.
Classification Instrument Cable Classifications
Category
1 Instrument power and control wiring (above 50 V). This group includes
AC and DC power supplies and control signals, including emergency
shut‑down control circuits.
Any cable having a total loading of more than 10 A should be regarded
as a power cable and be excluded from this classification.
2 High level signal wiring (5 V to 50 V DC). This group includes digital
signals, alarm signals, shut‑down signals and high-level analogue
signals, e.g. 4 mA to 20 mA.
3 Low level signal wiring (below 5 V DC). This group includes temperature
signals and low analogue signals, e.g. analyser measuring circuits.
4 Communications signals. This group includes fieldbuses, ethernet and
other digital communication systems such as CAN‑based systems, and
analogue/digital hybrids.

Only conductors carrying signals of the same category should be contained within any one
multicore/multipair cable.
In each classification, a further segregation should be made to ensure that conductors
forming part of intrinsically safe circuits are contained within multicore/multipair cables
reserved solely for such circuits.

All I.S cables must be segregated by at least 50mm from non I.S. cables unless at least one
of the cables has earthed armour or shielding.

Classification Recommended minimum

Category spacing
1 to 2 200mm
2 to 3 300mm
