De la Fuente Ortiz, Jesús Demand for higher gas turbine fuel flexibility with reliable combustion systems is becoming a decission making factor in several applications accross the power generation and Oil and Gas Industry when selecting turbomachinery. During this exciting workshop I will share the latest developments in dry low emission technology with non standard…

Ramírez, Rubén Commissioning and start-up is the final step before production runs in a processing plant. During this step, it’s usual that several problems take place in the machinery. Machinery start-up and adjustments in the process conditions cause vibrations in the units. Centrifugal compressors are especially sensitive machines during this process and very critical. Thus…

Rodríguez Fernández, Ángel Most of the types of Thermosolar power plants use a Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) to transfer the solar thermal energy to a steam generator. The produced steam will be used directly in a steam turbine to produce electricity or used to increase the performance of a thermal power plant. The pipes and…

Rubio Martínez, Ana Hazardous atmospheres are one of the non-visible components of a facility. Dealing with them in the right way is not easy because of their physical and chemical properties and the needed of knowledge about their extension and location in an early stage of the project. The presentation shows some deadlines and strategies…

Gilarranz, José Compact, oil-free compression systems have been around for quite some time but the benefits of the technology are usually not well understood. This technical paper is intended to provide a detailed discussion on the different technologies and options that are available from the OEM, and how they can be used as individual building…

Barreda, Almudena In the Oil & Gas sector, mainly in upstream plants where no energy is available, gas turbines are the first choice as source of energy. In this paper, we will get an overview of the main characteristics and differences between two most common gas turbine types in the O&G sector, heavy duty and…

Sanchez Rodrigo, Laura

García-Lozano, Javier When working for the first time in LNG terminals, even the most experienced piping engineers should take into consideration the special requirements associated to the cryogenic piping. Once introduced some general considerations, the presentation will focus on the main problems and concerns related to the pipe routing, stress analysis and supports design for…

Remiro Hernández, Jesús Ángel Boil Off Gas (BOG) and End Flash Gas (EFG) handling in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Production Facilities is a key point for the operation. During normal operation continuous flaring is not permitted and the plant is designed such that the generated BOG+EFG is used as fuel gas, via compression systems. These…

Álvarez de los Corrales Melgar, Diego When, in an existing Up-Stream Gas Treatment Plant, a new booster compression station must be installed, there is the possibility that the existing flare system of the Plant is not designed for the flow to be exhausted by the PSV of the new booster compressors. The presentation shows the…
