Webinar: The Importance of Designing Pressure Safety Valves for Normal Operation

Webinar: The Importance of Designing Pressure Safety Valves for Normal Operation
  • Date From 30th April 2020
  • Date To 30th April 2020
  • Price Free
  • Location Online

This presentation discusses how this can lead to a serious safety incident and impacts the performance of other PSVs at the site. 

The investigation identified that the original process design missed multiple opportunities to adopt inherently safer designs, because the inability for a valve design to meet both emergency and normal operation requirement was not well understood, and the risk of an unreliable PSV was not considered.

The webinar demonstrates Minyu's own learning on the importance of sharing knowledge between operators, designers, relief device manufacturers and valve service providers to understand:

  • the limitations of PSV design
  • the normal and routine operation scenarios that need to be considered in the design and selection of PSVs
  • the limitation of proof testing of PSVs.
