Training, education and certification of NIS a.d. employees started in November 2008 and finished in January 2010. Training has included both, theoretical courses in the field of risk management and on-the job training in German companies.
2.1.2 General about NIS a.d. 2.1.2.1 Activities
NIS is the largest oil company in Southeast Europe. It is joint stock company and fifty one percent of NIS shares is held by the Russian company Gazprom Neft. Corporate headquarters are located in Novi Sad and Belgrade and production facilities are located across the whole territory of Serbia. NIS is the only Serbian company which possesses an integrated and well balanced system of production, refining and trade of crude oil and petroleum products, as well as natural gas exploitation and which plays a significant role in stability and security of energy supply.
The company deals with crude refining, sales of petroleum products, and exploitation of hydrocarbons in Serbia and Angola. Annual NIS crude oil production totals ca. 1 million tons. NIS owns two oil refineries (Figure 2), Pančevo Oil Refinery and Novi Sad Oil Refinery, with total refining capacity of ca. 7.3 million tons per year. There is an LPG production facility, so called Elemir LPG refinery.
Oilfield services business deals with geophysical exploration, drilling and well testing , hydro probing, transportation, workover and civil construction services. In addition to its retail network (480 petrol stations), NIS also owns oil depots all over Serbia.
Figure 2: Refineries of NIS a.D.
The company's main business is the exploration of gas and oil in Serbia (mainly in Vojvodina) for and the production, importing, processing, transportation and marketing of hydrocarbons (oil and gas). It will hold hold monopoly on all oil imports except the high quality diesel fuel, called "eurodizel" in Serbia, until 2011. The company is a leading supplier of petroleum products in the Serbian market. It exports as well motor fuels, benzene, toluene), road and industrial bitumens to the EU countries, Ukraine, Croatia, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

2.1.2.2 History of the company
The development of the oil economy of Serbia began after World War II, when the research, and a few years later, production of oil and natural gas, as well as distribution and sales of petroleum products, began in this region. Soon after refineries have been constructed, companies for transport and trade of natural gas were set up as well.
NIS predecessor company was the Company for Crude Oil Exploration and Production, incorporated in 1949 by the Resolution of the Government of the Federative National Republic of Yugoslavia, and which in 1953 was named Naftagas. In 1949 the first gas fields discovered, in 1951 - started natural gas production and development of the gas transmission system and first crude oil fields discovered. In 1968 Novi Sad and Pančevo Oil refineries started up and the largest oil field in the country, discovered (Velebit).
NIS-Oil Refinery Pancevo, a company for production of petroleum, power fluids and electricity began to work in December 14, 1968 with capacity of 1.32 million tons of crude oil per year. In the first phase of expansion, December 14, 1979 atmospheric distillation II was put into operation, which has increased the primary processing capacity 4.82 million tons of crude oil per year. By commissioning of secondary refinery plants Refinery has been aligned with a modern European refineries with a modern structure of production facilities. During the NATO bombing refinery was badly damaged. Direct damage is estimated upwards of 360 million dollars but production capacity is restored soon.
NIS-Oil Refinery Novi Sad for production of all types of motor gasoline, diesel fuel, road and industrial bitumen, lubricants, and solvent began to work December 13, 1968. During the bombing in 1999 heavily damaged. Material damage is estimated 320 million dollars. After reconstruction atmospheric distillation reached the capacity of 500,000 tons per year of crude oil processing, and platforming, bitumen plant and atmospheric distillation capacity of 2 million tons per year of processing.
NIS was established as a public company for the exploration, production, refining and trade in crude oil, petroleum products and natural gas in 1991. It has integrated the following companies: Naftagas, Gas, Energogas, Pančevo Oil Refinery, Novi Said Oil Refinery, Belgrade Oil Refinery and Kruševac Lubricant Factory (FAM).
Since 1st October 2005 NIS started to operate as a joint stock company dealing with production of crude oil and gas, crude oil refining and trade in petroleum products, production and marketing of liquefied petroleum gas.
The privatization of NIS started in 2007. Several companies, including Gazprom Neft, MOL, OMV, Hellenic Petroleum, Rompetrol and Lukoil expressed interest to acquire the company. However, on 25 January 2008, Serbia and Russia signed an agreement giving 51% of NIS's shares to Gazprom Neft for €400 million and €550 million in investments until 2012. Adjoining contracts signed with Gazprom are the contact about inclusion of Serbia in the South Stream project and the construction of a gas reserve facility in Banatski Dvor. On 24 December 2008 final contract between the Government of Serbia and Gazprom were signed.
2.1.2.3 NIS in numbers
In 2009, JSC Gazprom Neft completed the acquisition of 51% of NIS shares, while the Government of the Republic of Serbia remains the owner of 49% of shares. Instead of previous business strategy mostly oriented to the market of Serbia and internal resources, a new strategy has been defined for NIS as achievement of long term stable leadership at the market of petroleum products in South East Europe.
NIS a.d. Novi Sad share capital is 81, 530, 200.000.00 RSD and owns the total of 163 060 400 of 500.00 RSD in nominal value. The structure of the shareholder capital of NIS a.d. Novi Sad on January 2, 2010 is shown on Figure 3.

2.1.3 Pancevo Oil Refinery 2.1.3.1 General data
Pančevo Oil Refinery is a fuel-type refinery which produces fuels, paraffin and aromatic solvents, feed for Petrochemical Complex, bitumen and sulphur and feedstock for petrochemical industry. Primary and secondary units for crude oil processing were constructed in such a way as to enable the processing of various types of crude. Today it is mostly imported crude oil that is being processed (70-80%). It is supplied by way of a pipeline through Croatia or by barges on the river Danube from Romania and Hungary. The rest of processed crude oil is of the domestic origin (oil fields located in the province of Vojvodina).
Refinery's available processing capacity is 4,820 x 106 tons per year of crude oil, i.e. 14,660 tons per day. With this production capacity and with storage capacity of approximately 700,000 cubic meters of crude oil and derivates, it is the biggest factory of this type in Serbia, meeting the domestic market demand for oil derivatives, with the possibility of exporting 20% of its production. The assortment of derivates manufactured is extremely wide.
Crude oil (domestic and imported) is delivered to the Refinery by oil pipeline and river barge, and the derivatives are dispatched by product pipeline, tank truck, railway and barge. Petroleum Industry of Serbia (NIS) has financed the construction of a pipeline from the island Krk (Croatia) to Petroleum refinery Pancevo, by way of which 6 x 106 tpy of crude oil can be transported. Reloading facility at the river Danube enables a simple way of supplying

the crude oil and dispatching the derivatives by barges. Crude oil and its derivatives can also be loaded and unloaded at the Refinery's own railway transport facilities. There are also tank-truck loading & unloading facilities.
Head office of the refinery is in Pancevo, Spoljnostarcevacka b.b and legally it is a part of the joint-stock company NIS - Petroleum industry of Serbia owned Serbia and JSC Gazprom Neft. Total number of employees is 2300.
Some of planned development projects are:
• meeting EU standards on product quality • reconstruction of the units and infrastructure in order to improve the process
efficiency and crude oil valorization • reduction of energy costs • improvement of environmental protection • joint projects with neighboring petrochemical company HIP-Petrohemija on better
valorization of by-streams.

Natural and protected areas
The territory of Pančevo municipality encompassed the protected area “Ponjavica” Nature Park, proclamated in 1995 which is located southeast of Pančevo city. This area is significant because of its connection with surface and underground water from the SZIC, on one side, and because its importance for protection of natural wetland flora and fauna on the other side (V level of IUCN protection and III level of national protection). The park, instituted in 1994, and managed by the public Enterprise "Omoljica", located in the homonymous village of Omoljica3 has an area of 133,54 ha,, which include part of the Ponjavica watercourse and adjoined areas. The park lies between two villages, Omoljica and Banatski Brestovac. “Ponjavica” also includes two special nature reservations established in 1961 – “Ivanovo” and Danube River island “Omoljicka Ada”. In the northeast part of Pančevo municipality, near the village of Dolovo is located the Monument of Nature “Tri stabla jasena”. This protected area, instituted in 1999, has three white ash trees estimated to be 200 to 250 years old.
The following natural areas are present in the municipal territory of Pančevo:
• Natural area named “Pancevacki rit”, between old and new road to Pančevo • is very interesting wetland area. It is old type of environment, such used to exist
around all big lowland rivers in the past. This area is important for bird nesting. These locations are in procedure for protection within international project Important Bird Areas. This bog-land are also very interesting and important as place where could be found different animal species which life circle and activities are closely connected with nearness of water and bog-lends. It is important to notice that flora of this area has not yet been investigated. Hence, there is a possibility to find there endangered water plants.
• Danube River islands (Forkontumac, Stefanac, Cakljanac, Brestovacka Ada, Ivankovacka Ada) and natural, wooded area on the river banks of Danube and Tamis river are natural areas important in many aspects of environmental point of view, but without any level of protection. Like “Pancevacki rit”, this sites suppose to be under protection as natural heritage and sites of potentially high biodiversity. These locations are important for nesting a great number of birds; for example, one of them is Haliaeetus albicilla, species considered as vulnerable according to IUCN ategorization. It is important to notice that some fish species spawn on riversides and island sides. River islands flora and fauna of the river banks, similarly to “Pancevacki rit”, have not yet been investigated, so it can be expected to find there some endangered and protected species. Jabucki rit and Glogonjski rit are remaining parts of marshes in the lower reaches of the Tamis River, located northeastern of Pančevo. These natural areas are out of PTA of SZIC, but they are also important for protection of flora and fauna biodiversity of this region. The importance of the residual wetland areas of Pančevo is also recognised at international level. According to the “National Report prepared for the 7th Meeting of the Conference of the Contracting Parties to the Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar, Iran, 1971) - 1995“ marshlands around Pančevo are designated for inclusion in the Ramsar List in 2010.
Flora and Fauna
In the territory of Pančevo natural vegetation survives only in small areas along river banks and canals and in marshes. The most of the area is agricultural nowadays. Autochthonous vegetation exists only in the few, above mentioned, places. For this reason and for the lack of information on plant species living in the area, natural areas with autochthonous vegetation should be protected in this municipality. More than 430 species of plants are present in the area, including some treathened species that can be found in the natural areas. No punctual data on the flora and vegetation of Pančevo are available at the moment.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 12
Fauna of Fauna of the area comprises more than 280 species approximately. Some of these species are threatened, according to IUCN categorization.
Population
According to the census in 2002. in the municipality of Pancevo lived 127,162 people and 23 different nationality, which speaks of a turbulent history and demographic situation of the people in this region. About 8,000 reside in the Vojlovica and Topola quarters in the close vicinity of Pancevo Refinery.
Geological and other characteristics
Geomorphology
Pančevo is located in a flat area of fluvial deposits along the eastern banks of the Danube River. The municipal territory is part of the Pannonian Basin. In a morphological sense, the Danube river divides the region into 2 different units:
• mountainous region, south to the river • plain region, north to the river.
The region located in the north of the Danube river is part of the Pannonian Plate, with altitude increasing from southwest (around 68 masl) to northeast. The city of Pančevo belongs to the north plain region with an average altitude of 70 to 78.45 masl (2). Pančevo is placed on the edge of Banat loess terrace, on the ontact of two big morphological units – Banat loess terrace and alluvial plains of Danube and Tamis rivers. Alluvial plains extend along Danube and Tamis rivers, in the direction of their flows, with an average elevation of 70-71 masl. The Banat loess terrace is mainly flat with relics of Tamis old flow in the form of local depressions and an average altitude of 70 to 85 masl. Both, terrace and plains, are protected from Tamis and Danube high waters by embankments along the rivers banks. The city of Pančevo belongs to the north plain region with an average altitude of 70 to 78.45 masl.
Hydrology of the Pančevo area
The region is characterized by a well developed hydrographic network by two typical lowland rivers, Danube and Tamis, with numerous branches, meanders, old flow streams and channels. The hydro graphic and hydrological characteristics of this region are of special significance for determining the general water balance as well as the quantity of water lost to Danube.
The largest and by far the most important surface water body is the Danube River, flowing west-southwest of the investigated area. The area from the left river bank to the river terrace on the east is flat and it’s called alluvial plain. In the recent past it was an area regularly flooded by high waters of the Danube. In the last century the flood plain of the Danube was protected from floods to become agricultural land. Amelioration of the area included digging of a dense canal network, construction of an embankment along the whole riverbank, drilling a few groups of abstraction wells and installation of many pump-stations for (ground) water pumping from canals to the river.
In addition, Danube water level rised around 2-3 m by construction of “Djerdap” dam in 1980’s. The result of all the above-mentioned works is that the Danube water level often surpasses the ground level of its alluvial plain around Pančevo, and almost constantly surpasses the water level in drainage network. Another important factor of flow regime is also the regime of “Djerdap” dam exploitation, making it very hard to determine flow regime in more detail. On the Pančevo monitoring station the mean water level of the Danube river for year 2002 was 70,84mas, with minimal 70.06 masl and maximum 71.94 masl.
As for hydrological characteristics, maximal flows of Danube occur beginning of spring, usually in April when it is around 7400 m3/s, minimal is in September with 3200 m3/s. Based on hydrological data for the period 1997 - 2000 on water measuring profile-Pančevo, mean Danube flow in this region is 5.326 m3/s (3) . Maximal flow is a consequence of spring time rainfalls and snow melting throughout the Danube watershed. Strong rains combined with soil saturated by water from snow melting enable fast water run off that affect river flow.
Upstream of Pančevo, Tamis and Sibnica Rivers flows into the Danube. Tamis River flows from northwest to southeast. It is regulated in its lower
part, near its mouth, and therefore it is much deeper here than upstream. Its regime is directly dependent on the Danube regime. During the Danube maximal water levels, Danube
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 13
can not receive all the water from Tamis, thus creating backwater at Tamis that floods the surrounding area. At minimal water level in its upstream parts at some points it almost dries completely. West of the Tamis river there is the Sibnica River and a network of natural and artificial canals, which are all directly dependent on the Danube regime.
The narrow area of Pančevo, South Industrial Zone of Pancevo, next to the flood plain, and the SZIC were built on backfilled material, by which the ground level was raised to an altitude of around 75 masl. This had to be done because of the high groundwater level especially during the maximum water level in Danube and the influence of “Djerdap” dam. This caused the creation of an artificial aquifer under the zone (Azotara and Petrohemija) in its inner parts practically independent from the Danube River, which was the purpose of these amelioration works. Between the city of Pančevo and the South Zone Industrial Complex two parallel open canals have been constructed for industrial purposes. The northern wider canal connects the fertilizer plant to the Danube. This is a navigable canal, used by ships to carry bulk of raw materials and products, and is itself used as a raw water source by the fertilizer and the petrochemical industries.
The southern canal is a wastewater canal that is used for discharging industrial effluent. Both canals are approximately 2 km long. They are divided and surrounded by embankments all the way from the plants to the Danube. The two canals both originate from the fertilizer plant HIP Azotara. Those two canals are of great importance for the hydrology and hydrogeology of SZIC. One the main purposes of canals is to drain the backfilled area, the shallow aquifer, of the Industrial Complex making a local underground (hydro geological) sub watershed. At the same time, the canal waters infiltrate the lower alluvial deposits of the Danube, which means that those canals connect the artificial shallow aquifer with the main alluvial aquifer.
Geology and Hydrogeology
The wider region around Pančevo is composed entirely of significantly thick quaternary deposits settled on older Neocene sediments, which are found
only in deep research boreholes. Geology of South Zone Industrial Complex area can be divided into:
• Oil Refinery region, and • Region of Petrohemija and Azotara.
The Oil Refinery region belongs to the Banat loess terrace, southeast from Petrohemija. The altitude of this first terrace from loessoide silt is higher then alluvial plain so there was no need for backfilling as in case of Petrohemija and Azotara. There was just backfilling with the purpose of levelling of original ground, which was slightly uneven. Oil refinery was constructed on backfill heterogeneous material. Regarding the grain size analyses of this heterogeneous material it is similar with sediments found beneath. The thickness of backfilled material vary from 0 to 3,5 m. The altitude of Oil Refinery after backfilling is around 74,21-76,93 masl, with slope from north to south. Sediments found beneath are mostly presented by loessoide silt, since Refinery was built on Banat loess terrace made of loess and loessoide silt. Thickness of this sediments, together with backfilled material, goes from 4,5-12,5m, usually around 7-9m. Under this sediments starts the main aquifer made of alluvial sands. Altitude of main aquifer overlying is on 61,72-70,94 m.a.s.l
Hydrogeology of Oil Refinery region do not have any specific characteristics comparing with data given in chapter Hydrogeology of Pančevo area. As it is mention before, backfilling of this terrain has been done only to level the previous surface of the ground. There is two underground waters with different hydrodynamic characteristics: aquifer with free water level (formed in loessial loam) and confined aquifer formed in Quaternary and Neocene sediments. Hydraulic conductivity of loessial loam is around 2x10-6 cm/s, and for main aquifer around 1,5x10-2 cm/s [RADUS doo, 2004]. Underground water level, for the period September 2001-August 2002, vary from 70,1-72,1 m.a.s.l. General direction of groundwater flow is from north to south.
Terrain Tectonics
From geotectonic aspect, the investigation area of Pančevo belongs to the south part of Banat depression on the very border (Danube river) with the Zone of Uncover Neocene. The oldest sedimentary rocks of Cretaceous age are folded and faulted during the Laramian stage, between Senonian and Paleogene. During this period the basic tectonic framework was formed. The tectonic movements in Neocene are weaker.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 14
In the zone of bare (uncovered) Neocene, it is manifested by re-appearance of existing fault. The most intensive products of neotectonics in this region according to B.Siric are faults that divide the terrain on blocks, whose activity began before Neocene. He states as well, that during Quaternary smaller fault-like structures formed that represent potential zones of contemporary movements. In investigation area of Pančevo Neocene sediments have maximal thickness of 500m. Tectonics of the Quaternary was relatively quiet.
Meteorological data
Pančevo is characterized by a continental to a moderate continental climate. The local climatic conditions in this area are mostly affected by the presence of rivers Danube and Tamiš, geographic latitude, distance from Mediterranean and Atlantic seas, as well as by its isolated position in the Pannonian Basin surrounded by high-altitude mountains (Alps, Dinaric Alps, Carpathian Mountains and Rodhopes). Moreover, significant forest belt located along the two rivers could also influence on a local scale the municipal climate.
Rainfall
Precipitation distribution in Pančevo area is characterized by an alternation of rather humid and rather dry periods. Generally, years with lower precipitation show two rainfall seasons during spring and autumn, characteristic for the continental climate.
During years with high precipitation the spring rainy season extends through the summer period, showing the influence of the Mediterranean climate regime. Table 2 shows data on rainfall for the period 1961 do 2003.

High temperatures during the hot period of the year cause turbulences in the atmosphere and strong vertical circulation that can favourably effect the dilution of emitted pollutants. It is known that at a relative humidity higher that 55% and a temperature higher than 25°C, photochemical smog is formed.
In Pančevo, these conditions are met on a couple of days of July and August. During the winter period low temperatures and poor turbulences in the atmosphere enable temperature inversions in Pančevo. Under these conditions dispersion of polluting substances is poor and concentration of polluting substances in the lower part of the atmosphere occurs. During this period, therefore immission measurements can detect pollutants concentrations higher than the law limit values.
Wind
Wind has an important and significant influence on Pančevo climatic characteristcs and air quality condition, since it could effect the transport and dilution of polluting substance. Moreover, in specific climatic conditions, it could affect also the city of Belgrade. Wind profile in the lowest layers of the atmosphere is greatly influenced by local topography, distribution of water bodies and land ect.
The wind profile in the non-urbane part of Pančevo is under the influence of relatively smooth terrain. In case of break-through of large atmospheric systems – cyclones, the
movement above Pančevo is in accordance with the circulation in the system of synoptic scales. At such times a medium to strong wind usually blows. In the urbane part of Pančevo we have increased ruggedness of urbane units that lead to modifications in wind speed and wind direction. Meteorological station in Pančevo doesn’t have anemograph, so all the data
about wind are given from the Belgrade observatory. Frequency of winds from various directions for Pančevo – wind rose - is given in
Figure 8.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 16
Figure 8: Wind Rose for Pancevo
The dominant wind is the south-eastern wind, called Kosava. It is most frequent during autumn, winter and early spring. The least frequent are north-eastern, easterly and south-westerly winds. Southeastern winds are the fastest – higher than 3.5 m/s. Predominant wind mean speed is 2,9 m/sec and annual average wind speed is 2,3 m/sec. Wind speed influences the degree of smoke rise from the chimneys. Higher speeds are favourable for dilution of pollutants from lower sources, but cause smoke rinsing from chimneys in case of high-point sources2. The less frequent winds in Pančevo have the lowest speeds. These winds have a detrimental effect on dispersion of polluting substances from ground sources but enable rising of smoke from high sources to higher altitudes enabling significant dispersion, that is high degree of dilution of emitted polluting substances from higher sources.
Air Humidity
The mean annual value of relative humidity for the Pančevo region is around 78%, as shown in Table 4. The highest monthly average values are recorded during winter season, in December (88%) and January (88.1%), while the lowest average values are recorded during summer period, in July and August (around 72%).

History of the plant
Construction years
Pančevo Refinery was founded based on the Decision of Executive Board of the National Republic of Serbia on 18 December 1959, under the name – Pančevo Oil Refinery – a company under construction, with the seat in Pančevo, Spoljnostarčevačka bb.
The contracts for engineering with the French company “Lummus“ from Paris and for “UOP“-USA license were concluded in March 1964, and the first tank foundation was completed in November 1965In August 1966, equipment worth 7 million pounds started being delivered. This equipment was imported from England, and the first foundation for Atmospheric Distillation AD-1 was laid on 1 March 1967.
Installation lasted for 18 months, and the unit was commissioned in September 1968. The first derivatives were dispatched from the Refinery in October, and official commissioning of the Refinery was performed on 14 December 1968. In December, Platforming Unit was commissioned as well, and in 1969, the other units were successively commissioned: two-stage thermal cracking, gas concentration, gasoline redistillation, Merox Unit for LPG, special gasoline and kerosene, aromatics extraction – Udex and HDS of middle distillates.

Figure 9: Years of construction
Commissioning of the first Refinery in this region was successfully conducted with the Refinery's own human resources that had previously been trained according to the program compiled and organized by the Refinery experts.
In parallel with the construction of the process units, auxiliary systems and associated facilities were constructed as well: Power Plant, storage tanks, facilities, jetty at the Danube...
First Years of Operation
Primary processing installed capacity was 1.32 million tons of crude oil per year. The oil for processing mostly arrived by barge – the Danube, and in the first year of operation, 1969, 1.055 million tons was processed. Already in 1970, the jetty was expanded, which made it one of the biggest jetties of that type in the country.
In the following 1971, the Refinery processed 1.3 million tons of crude oil – therefore, it operated with full capacity. In that year, based on the increased market demand for the derivatives, the Refinery prepared development and investment program for the Refinery expansion.“Naftagas“ Novi Sad that Refinery was a part of at the time, in 1973 adopted the concept of Refinery development in phases. The Refinery was recognized as a fuel-type refinery for the production of fuels, solvents, bitumen and feed for olefin and paraffin chemistry. This concept covers the supply of fuel to the regional market, supply of the required feed to Petrochemical Complex, construction of Yugoslav pipeline, gasification of the eastern part of Yugoslavia, etc.
Capacity was increased immediately, as an inter-phase expansion, until the implementation of the planned phases of development. In 1972, RNP used its own resources to reconstruct the two-stage thermal cracking into atmospheric distillation, thereby increasing the primary processing capacity to approximately 2 million tons per year.
First Phase of Expansion
For the purpose of developing oil and gas energy sector in SFRY, and for the purpose of developing chemical and petrochemical industry in the eastern part of the country, the first phase of Refinery expansion commenced by constructing a new primary unit of atmospheric distillation 2. This phase of expansion was implemented in accordance with the Contract with Petrochemical Complex in 1972, as a part of joint investment in which Petrochemical Complex provided foreign loans from the east and west, and the Refinery provided the funds in dinars for the customs and other financing within the country.
Installation of this unit was started in August 1976. The unit was designed by ICPRP from Ploesti (Romania), and the equipment was also supplied from Romania, and from the west as well. This unit, with the capacity of 3.5 million tons of crude per year, was officially commissioned on 14 December 1979. This increased the Refinery's total installed primary processing capacity to 4.820.000 tons per year. In 1976, Platforming Unit was reconstructed, which increased its capacity by about 65%.
Oil Pipeline
At the end of 1979, on 22 December, Yugoslav oil pipeline from Omišalj to Pančevo was put into operation. The first quantities of oil were delivered by pipeline to Pančevo in March 1980. The pipeline, with the capacity of 34 million tons per year, connected all Yugoslav refineries at the time, with a branch for the refinery in Lendava (Slovenia) and transit for Hungary and Czechoslovakia. “Naftagas“ Novi Sad, i.e. Pančevo Refinery that was a part of it, was one of the founders and investors of the pipeline construction, and it had its reserved transport capacity of 6 million tons per year.
Until the closing of the pipeline, which took place by unilateral decision of Croatian authorities on 6 September 1991, almost all of the crude for Pančevo Oil Refinery's processing needs arrived by that pipeline. From the beginning of its operation, the pipeline transported 34.088.000 tons of crude oil for Pančevo Oil Refinery's requirements.
Cessation of crude oil transport by pipeline has not led to Refinery units shut-down. Soon afterwards, a month later, delivery of crude oil was organized by rail and barge on the Danube, as well as by pipeline in the part from Elemir via Novi Sad to Pančevo.
The Refinery started using the pipeline once again, after signing the Contract with Croatia, on 18 June 1996.
Second Phase of Expansion
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 21
Upon completion of the first phase of expansion and increase in primary processing in the Refinery, it became necessary to build secondary units that provide “deeper“ crude oil processing, i.e. better crude oil yield.
Construction of the secondary units was implemented as the second phase of Refinery expansion. However, before that, in 1982, Vacuum Distillation and Bitumen Units were completed and commissioned. Design and equipment for both units were made in USSR. Equipment and material for Vacuum Distillation and Bitumen were financed bythe guarantees of banks from the loan of ex USSR to the Government of SFRY, and the funds in dinars were provided by the Refinery.
Figure 10: Second phase of expansion
License and basic engineering for the main unit from the secondary unit complex, Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC), were bought from US company TEXACO in 1978. Designs, equipment and materials were bought in the west, by way of loans that the Refinery, with the guarantees from our banks, secured in Great Britain.
Construction of secondary units with auxiliary and associated facilities, and adjustments to the existing Refinery system lasted until November 1985, when the main unit was commissioned. The other units from FCC Complex – II phase of expansion (Alkylation, HDS, Merox, etc.) were commissioned in the period from 1985 to 1988.
Financing of II phase of expansion, excluding Vacuum Distillation and Bitumen, was carried out by way of western loans for those components that had to be imported. Payments in dinars (customs, transport, insurance, civil works, installation and the like) were effected from the Refinery funds, from the joint investment funds which mostly consisted of extra profit from the production of oil and gas, and with considerable assistance and guarantees from “Privredna banka Pančevo“, “Vojvođanska udružena banka Novi Sad“, “Jugoslovenska investiciona banka Beograd“, “Genex Beograd“, insurance corporations “Insurance company Dunav“ and “Insurance company Novi Sad“, and others.
Keeping Pace
In the period up to 1990, two-stage thermal cracking was reconstructed into vacuum residue visbreaking, aromatics extraction unit (Sulfolane) was constructed, liquid sulphur production unit (Claus) was commissioned, storage space was expanded, construction of the new water chemical treatment unit, flare gas recovery unit and a new cooling water system was completed. Several facilities were built and reconstructed in the Handling Department (new tank truck loading facility, reconstruction and expansion of API-Separator, in-line blending of refinery products). In Petrochemical Complex battery limits, a joint unit for secondary waste water biological treatment was built.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 22
By the end of nineties, it was already possible to compare the Refinery with the modern world refineries. The built Refinery units enabled production structure in the ration 80% of white, highly valuable products, to 20 % of black products.
Sanctions
Security Council introduced at the end of May 1992 sanctions to FR Yugoslavia. Embargo had very serious consequences for the entire Petroleum Industry of Serbia, and thereby for the Refinery as well. Direct damages from embargo are estimated to several billion dollars, and indirect damages, in the form of delayed development, lost profit, and the like, can only be assumed.
The last barges with the imported crude oil arrived in Refinery on 18 June 1992, and from that moment on, Refinery was only processing domestic crude oil. Only about one sixth of the available primary processing units were in operation, under the conditions of dinar and foreign currency insolvency, multiple limitations in terms of procurement of spare parts and chemicals, and the like.
At the time of embargo, S-100 was in operation, a small primary processing unit, and the average processing capacity was 2.400 tons per day. This unit, before the sanctions, was almost discarded – it was used for occasional processing of slop as well as a spare unit. In 1991, this unit was revitalized and put on stand-by. It proved that the Refinery would not have been able to operate without it during the sanctions. Namely, there was not enough crude oil for the operation of big Atmospheric Distillation Unit. All through the sanctions, S-100 operated without major shut-downs. During embargo, Platforming, Gas Concentration and Udex with auxiliary units were in function, in addition to S-100.
Even in these conditions, continuity of crude oil processing was preserved, while the development was not entirely neglected either. This time was used for reparation of process equipment that had not been in operation, for the preparation of investment and development projects, professional training and education of personnel, development of information system.
Because of that, Refinery was ready when the sanctions were lifted: Primary processing units were ready as early as November 1995. Immediately upon the arrival of greater quantities of crude oil, the processing capacity was increased to 8.000 tons per day.
In 1996 and 1997, revitalization of all the Refinery units was carried out, and these were successively being put into operation. This is without precedent that a refinery was successfully restarted, after most of its units have been out of operation for almost 4 years.
Bombing and reconstruction
In the course of seventy-seven days of NATO bombing of Serbia, the Refinery was bombed seven times. The first time it was bombed on 4 April 1999, when the Refinery Power Plant was hit with two missiles. The following attacks took place on 12 April (twice), 13 April, 16 April, 18 April and 7 June. About 60 percent of Refinery units was destroyed, and almost all of the units and facilities were damaged, to a greater or smaller extent. Direct damages from the bombing were estimated to more than 400 million dollars, but considerable indirect damages should be added to the final sum.
Figure 11: Bombing 1999
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 23
Refinery, with its own resources and means, with the employment of domestic contracting companies, started reconstructing the damaged parts right away.
In the first phase of reconstruction, in less than three months, overhaul and reparation of the damaged equipment on the major primary processing unit (AD-1) and on some of the units in Block 5 were completed. In Handling Department and Power Plant, units and facilities necessary for the operation of process units, acceptance of crude oil and dispatch of finished products were made operational again. Derivative production was restarted as early as 26 September 1999.
The second phase, which implied a future modernization, was commenced right away. Bitumen Production and Vacuum Distillation Units were reconstructed and commissioned. By commissioning Boiler 1 in the Power Plant, Refinery repaired the unit that had been almost completely destroyed. This resulted in the renewal of the Refinery's own generation of steam.
The most complex and significant unit for a better crude oil yield in the Refinery, Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCC), started operation on 1 September 2000.
In parallel with the reparation, reconstruction and modernization of many units also took place. Some of the most important are as follows: replacement of the old control systems on almost all units with the new ones that are used in EU countries, reconstruction of Vacuum Distillation Unit in accordance with the design by Greek company Asprofos, for the purpose of increasing the yield, improving the bitumen feed quality, more reliable operation and easier unit management. FCC was modernized for the purpose of improving yield, and more reliable and longer operation.
Refinery today
Pančevo Oil Refinery is significant organizational part of and the biggest oil processing company in NIS-Petrol, which is the biggest branch of shareholding company - Petroleum Industry of Serbia. That is a fuel-type refinery which produces fuels, paraffinic and aromatic solvents, feed for Petrochemical Complex, bitumen and sulphur. Primary and secondary units for crude oil processing were constructed in such a way as to enable the processing of various types of crude. With the processing capacity of 4,8 million tons per year, it is the biggest factory of this type in Serbia, meeting the domestic market demand for oil derivatives, with the possibility of exporting 20% of its production.
Crude oil (domestic and imported) is delivered to the Refinery by oil pipeline and river barge, and the derivatives are dispatched by product pipeline, tank truck, railway and barge. Refinery is situated at exceptionally favourable location - 14 kilometers from Belgrade, the biggest consumer center in Serbia. It has its own Jetty on the Danube and pipeline that connects them, also truck loading facilities and railway station with the facilities for derivative dispatch and crude oil acceptance.
Top priority for all employees in Pančevo Oil Refinery is crude oil processing and production of sufficient quantities of oil derivatives according to the European standards for domestic requirements and creation of conditions for export, at the same time meeting all environmental standards. That is achieved by constant upgrading of operation process quality, better crude oil yield, power optimization and reduction in production costs, and for that purpose, it has been planned to implement development projects defined in cooperation with the foreign engineering companies (JGC, SHELL, ABB).
Particular attention is paid to environmental protection. During units reconstruction from 1999 to 2001, by investing into modernization and overhaul of the existing units, reconstruction and construction of storage tanks and facilities, as well as the preparation of basic designs for the future modernization, environmental component was integrated into the entire production cycle: starting from crude oil storing, derivative production, to derivative dispatch into transport means. Implementation of the planned development technological projects is of common interest both for industrial zone and for Pančevo town as a whole. These projects aim at reaching European standards by restricting and controlling detrimental substance emission into the air, soil and water.

Measures to prevent or mitigate the hazards
Preventive, organizational measures
Fire will be detected by optical control. Fire sensors do not exist. A new sensor system for gas detection and continuous measurement has been installed in 2007. An internal professional fire brigade is located in Block VI. 73 people are working there and 68 are fire fighters. The available equipment is described in Annex 5. The advantage is a very short alarm period for rescue operation. Nevertheless in the case of a major accident the fire brigade will also be addressed by the accident and will not be able to perform the rescue operations.
Rescue and emergency plans are under construction and do not exist at the moment. This will be done by Risk Management division.
Preventive, constructional measures
The surface is brick earth covered with concrete. The level of underground water is about one meter deep and will probably be affected by an accident. Therefore all tanks are build in basins. A drainage system exists for fire extinguishing water. A new project is running at the moment with the objective to separate normal water and waste water in different drainage systems.
The maintaining department has developed a plan of fire water retention.
Technical measures
Due to the requirements of the national laws every three years the safety valves will be maintained and controlled. The electrical department has developed an electrical emergency supply system.
A monitoring system has been build up in 2006 and it is managed by the HSE department and is just in the testing phase.
The waste management and classification will be done by Risk Management department. The waste will be handled by a contractor.
Measures to mitigate an accident
The intended major maintenance period is every three years. In reality at the moment there is a major maintenance shut down per year as the process has been modified to increase the efficiency of the process. The modification can partly lead to erosion and corrosion. This has to be controlled at the moment by a yearly inspection.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 27
The pressure vessels will have an inside inspection every three years and every six years the pressure will be tested. This inspection is based on a national law which is connected with EU regulations.
It is not an obligation in Serbia but regarding the topic explosion protection the Risk Management division has started to consider the requirements of the ATEX Directives. An explosion protection document has been developed which has been submitted to the Ministry. The exchange of the equipment in regard to the requirements of the ATEX Directive will be done step by step. Furthermore the German TA Luft will be implemented.
The inspection is in the responsibility of the production and maintaining department of RNP and planning of safety aspects is in the responsibility of the Risk Management department.
No public utilities are affected by accident consequences as the line connections are underground.
Lightning is high frequency event in summer and has lead to two accidents in the past. About 10 years ago a safety valve has been fired by lightning and last year a burning flare has been addressed by lightning.
The normal protection measure is earthing. The maintenance period for the control of the protection measure is once a year as required by law. The measurement of the resistance and continuity will be done. All safety valves are protected by steam extinguishers. This task is from 2007. in the responsibility of Risk Management division and will be done by an external party.
Internal communication will be done by phone, radio and mobile phone.

Novi Sad has a moderate continental climate, with four seasons. Autumn is longer than spring, with long sunny and warm periods. Winter is not so severe, with an average of 22 days of sub-zero temperature. January is the coldest month, with an average temperature of -1.9 °C. Spring is usually short and rainy, while summer arrives abruptly. The coldest temperature ever recorded in Novi Sad was -30.7°C (-19.3°F) on January 24, 1963; and the hottest temperature ever recorded was 41.5°C (110.7°F) on July 6, 1950. Average temperatures are given inTable 11.
The southeast-east wind Košava, which blows from the Carpathians and brings clear and dry weather, is characteristic of the local climate. It mostly blows in autumn and winter, in 2-3 days intervals. The average speed of Košava is 25-43 km per hour but certain strokes can reach up to 130 km/h. In winter time, followed by a snow storm, it can cause snowdrifts. Also it can cause temperatures to drop to around -30°C.

Bodies of water and flooding
In the region of Novi Sad underground waters, deep on up to 300 m and not so deep one, are of big importance. In the alluvial water regime is directly depending on Danube river. High underground water show important amplitudes, while the deep underground waters show higher stability. On the lower parts of the alluvial valley the underground waters come the surface and flood it.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 33
On the loess terrace the level of the underground water rises from October to April. Oscillations are within 1 to 1.5 m, while the deepness is mostly more then 4 m.
Freatske water are high polluted. Not treated waste water go to the open sewage line, cricks from the mountain Fruska Gora and drain to the underground, to the not deep water layers which are use for individual or public water supply. All human facilities in Backa and partly Novi Sad are drained using open channels.
Areas of seismic activities
In the region seismic activities are possible with intensity 6 - 8 MCS. On location of Novi Sad Refinery possible earthquake with intensity of 7 MCS.
Geological and hydrological characteristiques
Environment of Novi Sad is characterized by presence of two different morphological units: Fruska Gora mountain and the Pannonian basin. Their genesis is related to strong orogenic movements with the participation of deflection. Fruska Gora is an area of erosion, and the Pannonian plain area reservoirs (lake sediments, les, sand) and erosion (alluvial plain).
Novi Sad Refinery lies on the oldest alluvial carbonate coat that is sandy clay and to some extent consolidated. In the area of Novi Sad shallow groundwater and deeper ones, up to 300m are of the great importance. The water level in alluvial area is directly related to the water level of the Danube. High groundwater show significant amplitude, in contrast to the deep groundwater, which show greater stability.
Wastewater is directly discharged in an open canal network, creeks of Fruska Gora and further drained in underground, in the shallow water-bearing layers, which are used for individual and public water supply. The entire area is Refinery fill-reflux sand thickness from 1:50-2.00m.
Flora, fauna and protected natural and cultural properties
Natural advantages for plant species in the area of Novi Sad and surrounding are not the same. They are primarily caused by differences in relief, the differences in the amount of underground water, in geological and pedological soil composition, anthropogenic influence and other factors.
Biographical characteristics of the area corresponding to the rim of the Pannonia regions. Observing the physical and geographical distribution of fauna, flora observed the following characteristic areas:
• region of Bačka with complex agro eco systems
• region of Fruška gora with complex forest
• Fruska Gora Prigorje with cultural landscape and
• Danubian region under the jack forests and flood meadows.
Distinctive forest vegetation of Fruska gora, plant communities loessial.plateau, vegetation of the Danube alluvial plains, wetlands and meadow vegetation and anthropogenic forest are developed.
On the location of Novi Sad Refinery there are no rare or endangered plant and animal species, nor particularly valuable plant communities. Within the refinery, among certain sections of reservoirs, installation, related facilities and internal roads, there is no other vegetation except grass cover and low trees around the administration building. According to the Office for Protection of no registered archaeological sites in the observed area.
Population
Novi Sad iis Serbia's second-largest city, after Belgrade. In its most recent official census from 2002, the city had an urban population of 216,583, while its municipal population was 299,294. But according to the data from April 2010, the city had an urban population of 286,157, while its municipal population was 372,999. Shanghai, nearby village, occupies an area of 13 ha, and lives about 1,600 inhabitants.

2.1.4.4 Safety of the plant
Measures to prevent or mitigate the hazards
Preventive measures
There is no major maintenance period as the different establishment is only running between 20% and 50% or their normal capacity (missing feed).
The pressure vessels will have an inside inspection every three years and every six years the pressure will be tested. This inspection is based on a national law which is connected with EU regulations.
Safety valves and gas installations have an inspection period of once per year. Gas installations will also be inspected if the duration of the shut down period is more than one month.
Preventive constructional measures
No public utilities are affected by accident consequences as the line connections are underground.
Preventive technical measures
Lightning is high frequency event in summer and has lead to some initial fires (each time fire on the top of a column). This part is also protected by earthing. In general the normal protection measure is earthing. The maintenance period for the control of the protection measure earthing is once a year as required by law. The measurement of the resistance and continuity will be done.
Additional measures
Internal communication will be done by radio, phone and mobile phone.

Air temperature
In the winter period the cold air from north causes significant decrease of temperature, while the cold air from Carpathian brings dry, windy and cold weather. In springs southwest flows are dominant causing temperature increase. On east, northeast and southeast cold air appears mostly in the cold part of the year.
Table 3 and Table 4 show statistical data on metro parameters in Zrenjanin region in the period 1991 to 2004.
In summers cold air from the north causes bad weather and storms. Cold air is getting fast worm from the earth and transforms in continental warm air. In June, when southwest winds blow in high region, the cold air spread in Pannonia, the weather development ends up with storms.

History of the plant
NIS-NAFTAGAS is founded by the decision of FNRJ Government on 10.02.1949. as a company for research and crude oil and gas production. Since 31.12.1991. It works within Petroleum Industry of Serbia.
In 28.09.2005. the Company for research, production, treatment, distribution and trade of crude oil and its derivates and research and production of gas is founded (Društvo za istraživanje, proizvodnju, preradu, distribuciju i promet nafte i naftnih derivata i istraživanje i proizvodnju prirodnog gasa) "NIS" a.d.
NIS-NAFTAGAS is it part dealing with research and production of crude oil, natural gas, underground water and geothermal energy, engineering in the field of oil industry and design and construction of facilities.
As for accidents, there was a jet fire in a compressor for fluidisation of Propane (Incoming pressure 1.6 to 2.8 bar, outgoing pressure 13 to 15 bar). There was a leakage in the compressor which leads to a jet which was ignited. The fire has been extinguished by closing the incoming line.
Measures to prevent or mitigate an accident (general)
Organizational measures
There is a major maintenance period once/year. The pressure vessels and columns will have an inside inspection every three years and every six years the pressure will be tested. This inspection is based on a national law which is connected with EU regulations.
Safety valves and gas installations have an inspection period of once per year.
Equipment for use in explosive atmosphere has a visual inspection twice a year and an inspection by external authorized persons every three years.
Constructional measures
No public utilities are affected by accident consequences as the line connections are underground.
Technical measures
In general the normal protection measure is earthing. The maintenance period for the control of the protection measure is once a year as required by law. The measurement of the resistance and continuity will be done.
Lightning is high frequency event in summer and has lead to one accident in the past. At a top of a small chimney for steam the lightning ignited the steam. The flow has been stopped and the fire has been extinguished hereby. As a result the instrumentation and control system has been damaged. This part was not protected by earthing.
Measures to reduce the consequences of an accident (General)
The whole staff has a yearly fire extinguishing training and exercise. The evacuation training will only be done for a rescue brigade.
Rescue and emergency plans exist partly for the buildings. Fire fighting equipment in RGE is specified in Table 28. In the case of an accident or a fire the workers will be informed by sirens to leave the establishment.
The surface is loam. The level of underground water is about 2-4 meters deep. All tanks are built in basins. A drainage system exists for fire extinguishing water and normal water. The fire water retention will be done by hydrants connected to two basins (900 and 250 m3).
Fire extinguishing by foam is also possible. A gas detection system has been installed. A fire detection system is under construction. An automatic fire extinguishing system does not exist. A system for automatic cooling of the tanks is existing.

2.1.5.4 Description of processes
RGE is designed for maximal processing and preparation as follows:
• 1200000 m3/day of natural gas,
• 21.6 t/day of gas condensate and
• 10 t raw gasoline
Main products of the refinery are:
• Propane 45 t/day
• n-Butan 34 t/day
• izo-Butan 38 t/day
• Debutanized gazoline 60 t/day
• Process oil 5 t/day and
• Gazoline Gt 4,2 t/day.
Process may be separated in six main technological operations: separation, dehydration, absorption, desorption, distillation and rectification.
Natural gas and gas condensate, after separation, go to the dehydration column for drying with three-ethylene glycol. Dry gas goes for deep cooling and further to the absorption column where propane, butane, pentene and hexane are absorbed from the natural gas. For absorption oil is used (150 g/mol).
The processed natural gas is taken from the top of the column. The used absorption oil, with above mentioned products, goes for stabilization to the de-ethanizer where methane and ethane are separated from the absorption oil. Further oil goes to distillation where C3 and C8 are distillated and from the column bottom process oil is going out and further heated in the furnace. This oil is used as a heating fluid in the process unit.
Distillates are condensed and led to the rectification columns where clean components are derived. In the first rectification column (depropanizer) propane is separated as the pure component, and the mixture of hydrocarbons from the bottom of the column is led to the debutanizer. In the second column (debutanizer) the mixture of butane is derived from debutanizer gasoline on the column bottom. Butane mixture from the debutanizer column goes to the de-isobutanizer where isobutene is separated from n-butane.

2.2 About RBI / RCM methodology
2.2.1 General It is commonly accepted that some inspection on the equipment and piping is necessary to validate the expected condition of the items as well as to assure the integrity of the plant. However it is difficult to determine exactly how much inspection effort is required. An RBI analysis assists to determine the required effort by providing three key parameters, the likelihood of failure of the item, the consequence of failure of the item and the risk from the combination of likelihood and consequence of failure.
The purpose of a RBI analysis is to focus inspection activities on those pieces of equipment where failure risks associated with an active damage mechanism are highest.
It should be noted that releases have two main causes, one is failure due to material degradation, which can be inspected for and the other is a system error, e.g. an operator error where inspection cannot assist.
Risk based inspection planning is a methodology which prioritizes inspection activities on the basis of the actual risk reduction associated with each specific activity. It does this through the following steps:
• Prepare a suitable database
• identify the main active damage mechanisms and possible scenaria – HAZOP analysis
• Perform qualitative Risk-based assessment according to the CEN CWA 15740
• Performed detailed analysis based on API RP 581:2008 - Risk Risk-Based Inspection Technology
• Calculate the likelihood of failure for each piece of equipment as function of the different damage mechanisms, the rate of degradation and time in service
• Calculate the consequence of failure associated with each piece of equipment
• Combine the likelihood and the consequence numbers to calculate the risk associated with each piece of equipment and rank the equipment according to the risk results
• Calculate the reductions achievable in the likelihood of failure through a suitable inspection program (This is achieved by removing the uncertainty in the actual rate of degradation or condition of the item and thus reducing the chance of failure)
• Develop the inspection program based on the inspection costs versus the inspection benefits.
2.2.2 Preparation of data base The summaries of process description and PFDs for each plant were first reviewed to obtain a preliminary understanding of the process and the equipment functions. The equipment and piping items were identified from the PFDs.
Each item was entered in the master workspace in process order. This database was supported by piping specifications, equipment data sheets, process stream compositions, operating conditions and other relevant documents. The preparation of this database was an extensive process.
The datasheets in Excel format were used to gather the data. The key data are also marked on the PFDs for easy reference.

2.2.3 Identifying the Damage Mechanisms The damage mechanisms of interest are those which develop over a period of time, gradually weakening the pressure boundary integrity of components until failure is predicted. These damage mechanisms include internal corrosion and external damage under insulation.
Damage mechanisms for the process units were identified based on supplied data, interviews with the staff, standard industry process knowledge and using the API documents, together with R-Tech material and corrosion expertise.
The following “inspectable” active or potentially active damage mechanisms have been identified and the corrosion circuits are also developed.
The potential damage mechanisms include:
• External Damage (Corrosion under insulation) – CUI • Internal thinning (generalized / Localized thinning) • Fatigue damage on the piping systems • Creep and other elevated temperature related damage mechanisms • Potential of brittle fracture in the process parts operating under temperatures below
the ambient temperatures
2.2.4 Calculating the Likelihood of Failure The likelihood of failure of a piece of equipment or pipe is a direct function of the nature and rate of the degradation mechanisms to which it is subjected. The essential steps are to:
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 53
• Identify the damage mechanism(s)
• Predict the rate of degradation
• Assess the inspection history
Consider the age (Note - in this study a (5) years look ahead was made to give a risk profile for June 2012), this is to identify equipment with risk that could exceed the inspection targets between the upcoming and the following plant shut down.
When the likelihood of failure is being assessed, the calculation routine is based on the simple premise that unexpected catastrophic failures occur when degradation happens faster than expected. The routine therefore looks at the “what if” scenarios of the corrosion rate being either twice or even four times the predicted rate and calculates the likelihood of failure compared with the operational conditions.
It also takes into account the current confidence in the condition based on the nature of the inspections previously performed and their ability to characterize the extent and rate of the different damage mechanisms.
These factors are combined by the software to produce a value for the likelihood of failure for each damage mechanism. This is expressed as a Likelihood Factor, which is a number to be applied to the generic failure frequency of the particular item. If no damage mechanisms have been identified, the Likelihood Factor may be 0.5 indicating that the component is 50% less likely to fail than the industry average for such components. If a severe damage mechanism is found and the item has not been thoroughly inspected for some time the Likelihood Factor may be in the thousands indicating that the component may be much more likely to fail than the industry average and that an inspection is needed urgently.
The general approach is to address those items in the order of the decreasing Likelihood Factor, as indicated in Table 30.
Table 30: Proposed action for different category of Likelihood Factor
Likelihood Factor Value Action
Likelihood Factor >1000
Immediate action should be taken, prioritised by risk. Select the highest risk item with a value in this range and perform
appropriate action. A first step should always be careful checking of the input data for errors. If this does not resolve the problem, a highly effective inspection appropriate to the
damage mechanism should be performed. 100<Likelihood Factor<1000 Address these items next, again prioritizing by risk.
10<Likelihood Factor<100 Address these items next, again prioritizing by risk.
1<Likelihood Factor<10
Address these items last. Since values in this range indicate a potential, but not necessarily severe, problem. Action on these items may be delayed until all other items have been addressed or until a convenient time, such as a scheduled
shutdown within the time frame considered in the RBI analysis.
2.2.5 Calculating the Consequence of Failure Based on the process flow diagrams (PFDs) and discussion with the risk & process engineers, each item of equipment was assigned to an inventory group. This group represents the fluid that could escape in the event of a leak at any one of the items in the group. Each equipment item is then associated with two inventories, it’s own and the group inventory.
The consequences are calculated taking into account the nature and amount of the fluid released. The amount and rate of fluid released depends upon factors such as the size of the hole, the fluid viscosity and density and the operating pressure. The rupture of a large diameter high-pressure pipe or vessel obviously has a different consequence than a pinhole leak at a small diameter low-pressure pipe and this method quantifies that difference.
Each piece of equipment or piping has a certain generic (industry average) probability of failing either by a pinhole type leak, a medium size hole, a large hole or a rupture. The
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 54
consequence of each type of failure is calculated and combined with the probability for that failure; to calculate the overall risk associated with each piece of equipment.
2.2.6 Determine the Financial Consequences There are many costs associated with any failure of equipment in a process plant. These include, but are not limited to:
• Cost of equipment repair and replacement • Cost of damage to surrounding equipment in affected areas • Costs associated with production losses and business interruption as a result of
downtime to repair or replace damaged equipment • Costs due to potential injuries associated with a failure • Environmental cleanup costs
The approach used in API RBI is to consider all of these costs on both an equipment specific basis and an affected area basis. Thus, any failure (loss of containment) has costs associated with it, even when the release of the hazardous material does not result in damage to other equipment in the unit or serious injury to personnel. Recognizing and using this fact presents a more realistic value of the consequences associated with a failure. Since the costs include more than just business interruption, the approach used for quantitative API RBI analysis is called the financial consequence approach.
The financial consequence of a loss of containment and subsequent release of hazardous materials can be determined by adding up the individual costs discussed above:
FC=FC cmd+FC affa+FC prod+FCinj+FCenviron
The basic method of risk analysis as presented in API RBI is not changed for the financial risk analysis. The risk is still calculated as the consequence of failure (now expressed as cost in dollars) times the probability of failure.
For a rigorous and flexible analysis, the consequences (costs) are evaluated at the hole size level. Risk is also evaluated at the release hole size level by using the probability of failure associated with each release hole size. The total risk is calculated as the sum of the risks of each release hole size.
2.2.7 Calculating the Risk This is now a very simple step, where the risk associated with each piece of equipment is essentially given by the formula:
RISK = Likelihood of Failure x Consequence of Failure
The risk is the combination of two key terms:
• Likelihood of failure and
• Consequence of failure
Understanding the two-dimensional aspect of risk allows new insight into the use of risk as an inspection prioritization tool.
The consequences are calculated based on fluid properties, temperatures, pressures and inventory.
The likelihood is based on “generic” or “average” failure frequency data.
An analysis is then performed considering important failure mechanisms for each piece of equipment to determine if it is more, or less likely to fail than average. The result is then used to modify the likelihood of failure in this study. The consequence and the likelihood are then combined to give a risk value for each piece of equipment.
A high-risk item may be high risk due to either a high likelihood of failure or a low consequence of failure or conversely a high consequence of failure and a low likelihood of failure.
An inspection program can only influence the value of the likelihood of failure, not the consequence. No matter how much inspection is performed the consequence is unchanged.
Therefore, where a high-risk item is driven by the consequence value, other actions such as more precise analysis such as Quantitative Risk Assessment and upgrading of mitigation system may be considered.

The overall ranking is then done according to the RIMAP risk matrix, shown in the Figure 23. Alternatively, the risk can be represented in the NIS risk matrix, as shown in Figure 24.

2.2.8 Remaining life assessment The remaining life for the equipment and piping items based on the hoop stress was performed according to the recommendations given in the API 581 BRD, and Steinbes R-
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 56
Tech Software iRIS-Petrol has been used for the analysis. It accounts for both internal thinning and external corrosion rates. The remaining life is calculated as follows:
1. First, determine the Minimum Wall Thickness (tmin) to be used. There are 3 options available for specifying this tmin: • using the Design Corrosion Allowance taken from design documents (which is a
default option) • using User-defined Minimum Thickness taken from local codes or other
considerations such as structural stability. • using Calculated Minimum Thickness which is based on ASME code formula:
2. Determine the Remaining Corrosion Allowance where:
in which,
Initial Corrosion Allowance is determined from step (1)
and
Total Wall Loss = Internal Wall Loss + External Wall Loss 3. The Nominal Remaining Life is then calculated as follows:
NomRemLife = (RemCorrAllow) / (Total Corrosion Rate)
in which,
Total Corrosion Rate = Internal Thinning Rate + External Corrosion Rate
Steinbeis R-Tech iRIS-Petro also provides an alternative calculation for remaining life known as the probabilistic remaining life. It is based on a weighted average of the nominal remaining life for all possible thinning scenarios.
For internal thinning, 3 states are assumed and the probabilistic remaining life equation is as follows:
Whereby
State i = 1, is when the thinning rate is as given by the user
State i = 2, is when the thinning rate is 2 times the given rate
State i = 3, is when the thinning rate is 4 times the given rate
Pi is the probability of state i.
(Nominal Remaining Life)i is the remaining life calculated for state i.
A more complex equation is used when external thinning is included or where liner is involved.
2.2.9 Developing an inspection plan The key piece of data for the development of an inspection plan is the Likelihood Factor. The Likelihood Factor for each piece of equipment is a composite i.e.
Likelihood Factor (LF) = LFThinning + LFCUI(ClSCC) +……
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 57
Since an inspection needs to be tailored to fit the particular type of damage expected at a particular piece of equipment, the key considerations are:
• High total Likelihood Factors
• High overall risks
• The Likelihood Factor per damage type.
• Short or zero probabilistic remaining life.
As agreed with NIS, inspection planning targets are adopted for this inspection planning. For each equipment item, the driving damage mechanism is identified for inspection. Based on the inspection planning targets the Likelihood Factor for the relevant driving damage mechanism is then reduced by assigning appropriate number and effectiveness of inspection. This is generated by software as inspection.
The actual inspection scope to satisfy the assigned effectiveness is then developed based on API inspection guideline for each relevant damage mechanisms, as given in the tables below.

2.2.10 Software used Software used for analysis, R-Tech iRIS-Petro RBI, is fully based on API methodology and recommendadtion contained in the document API RP 581 Risk Based Inspection Technology, Second edition (see references [1]).
The software is used for assessment of the risk on equipment/subequipment level and for developing and evaluating inspection plan and strategies.
Software is described in Chapter 3, together with instructions for the users.
2.3 General about HSE (HAZOP, Seveso II) methodology
2.3.1 HAZOP The HAZOP (Hazard and Operability) technique provides a means of systematically reviewing the design and operation of a system to identify the potential occurrence of hazardous events (impacts on people, property, or the environment), or operability problems (impacts on process efficiency or productivity). It is based on the premise that a hazard is not realized if the process is always operated within its design intent.
The HAZOP technique involves structured brainstorming to look for deviations from the design intent. Structure is provided by the use of a set of guidewords. The guidewords are applied to various aspects of the design intent, i.e. process parameters, to develop deviations. The team determines if the deviation could realistically occur and, if there are realistic causes, evaluates whether the consequences are significant, as defined by the scope of the study.
The team may then evaluate whether existing safeguards are adequate considering the causes and consequences of the deviation. The safeguards may be either in the form of hardware or procedures. In some cases, the team may make recommendations for corrective action, for study to determine an optimal solution, or for additional investigation to determine whether a problem exists that warrants action.
The primary objective of the classical form of HAZOP study is the identification of problems or possible accident scenarios. This information alone is not sufficient to make decisions on
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 61
what should be done. It is useful if a simple risk estimate can be provided for each problem in order to provide a basis for deciding on the best allocation of resources to address key problems. Consequently HAZOP-PC provides a means for qualitatively estimating the likelihood and severity of each problem identified in order to develop a risk estimate.
HAZOP studies can be performed for new plants where the design is nearly firm and documented, or for existing plants where a significant redesign is planned, or where no previous study has been performed. HAZOP studies can be conducted not just for processes but also for storage, transportation, and other systems.
While the HAZOP technique is the most comprehensive hazard analysis method of those available, it cannot provide complete assurance that all hazards have been identified.
HAZOP Team
HAZOP team members need to be knowledgeable of the process and its operation, at least some of the team should come from the operating facility. A typical team may consist of the following members:
• Team Leader
• Process Engineer
• Operations Supervisor
• Safety Engineer
• Maintenance/Inspection Supervisor
• Facilities/Mechanical Engineer
HAZOP Process
Typical HAZOP process is illustrated on the Figure 25.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH

Figure 25: Flowchart of HAZOP Process
2.3.2 Seveso II Directive The Seveso II Directive is based on Article 174 (ex-Article 130s) of the EC Treaty. It is important to mention that, according to Article 176 (ex-Article 130t) of the EC Treaty, Member States can maintain or adopt stricter measures than those contained in the Seveso II Directive.
The aim of the Seveso II Directive is two-fold. Firstly, the Directive aims at the prevention of major-accident hazards involving dangerous substances. Secondly, as accidents do continue to occur, the Directive aims at the limitation of the consequences of such accidents not only for man (safety and health aspects) but also for the environment (environmental aspect). Both aims should be followed with a view to ensuring high levels of protection throughout the Community in a consistent and effective manner.
The scope of the Seveso II Directive is solely to the presence of dangerous substances in establishments. It covers both, industrial "activities" as well as the storage of dangerous chemicals. The Directive can be viewed as inherently providing for three levels of proportionate controls in practice, where larger quantities mean more controls.
A company who holds a quantity of dangerous substance less than the lower threshold levels given in the Directive is not covered by this legislation but will be proportionately controlled by general provisions on health, safety and the environment provided by other legislation which is not specific to major-accident hazards. Companies who hold a larger quantity of dangerous substance, above the lower threshold contained in the Directive, will be covered by the lower tier requirements. Companies who hold even larger quantities of dangerous substance (upper tier establishments), above the upper threshold contained in the Directive, will be covered by all the requirements contained within the Directive.
The Directive was amended again in December 2003.
The key elements of preparation of a Seveso assessment are described in the Table 37.

7. RBI analysis and results checking.
8. Preparation of RBI analysis report.
2.6.2.3 Deliverables
The deliverables of the RBI project include:
1) Database of equipment for the process units studied.
2) RBI analysis report for the units include the followings:
a) Six (6) sets of process flow diagrams showing the basic information used in the analysis.
b) Inspection plan guidelines for selected ‘high risk items’ based on a plan period agreed with RGE. This consist of tables and reports indicating the overall risk, likelihood and consequence factors, the recommended inspection methods and coverage for each equipment item and the active or potential damage mechanisms identified per equipment item.
c) The assumptions and conclusions of the RBI analysis.
2.6.3 Methodology General details on applied RBI / RCM methodology and HAZOP are presented in Chapter 2.2 of this report.
A HAZOP study is performed by a HAZOP team, consisting of experienced engineers and operating personnel from appropriate disciplines, facilitated by an independent chairman experienced in the use of the HAZOP methodology. The team may include representation from both the design contractor and from their client who is to operate and maintain the facility. Typically the team may include process engineers, project engineers, electrical & instrument engineers, maintenance engineers and senior operating personnel. Other specialists may be drafted in to the meeting when appropriate.
The HAZOP review is normally based on P&IDs of the planned facility, while PFDs, Cause and Effect Diagrams, Hazardous Area Classification drawings and Layout Drawings may also be used to provide additional information. During a HAZOP, the P&IDs will be broken down in to logical sub-systems (nodes), which may be a vessel, a line interconnecting equipments, or some other logical sub-system.
The HAZOP technique involves the following steps:
1. Identify the node to be studied. 2. Define the design intent of the node and the normal operating parameters. 3. Apply a HAZOP deviation (e.g. NO/LESS FLOW) to the node. 4. Identify all possible causes for the deviation. 5. Identify for each cause all possible consequences, without regard for the
safeguards in place. 6. Identify all available safeguards to prevent the cause or to limit the
consequences. 7. Recommend any new safeguards where judged necessary. 8. Repeat steps 4 to 7, using the next HAZOP deviation. 9. Repeat steps 3 to 8 until all HAZOP deviations have been applied to the
node. 10. Select the next node to be studied, repeating steps 1 to 9.
Steps 3 and 4 are repeated until all the guide-words have been applied and discussed and the team is satisfied that all meaningful deviations have been considered. The team then goes back to Step 1 and repeats the process for the next section or node. Figure 3illustrates the normal workflow of a HAZOP study.
When a recommendation was proposed, the risk was ranked based on consequences and frequency, using the COMPANY Risk Ranking Matrix.

Re-engineered and re-constructed for operations up to -23°C in 1969.
Design life time- not given in the project documentation, most of the equipment has been designed according to the ASME Section VIII, edition valid at the time of construction. This is equivalent to approx. ASME Section VIII, Division 1 according to the current standard edition. Re-qualification of the equipment to the latest code of construction (ASME) has not been performed. Analysis of the design and qualification to the current regulation of pressure vessels in Serbia has been performed on several occasions, mostly by the local Universities.

Detection systems: Process instrumentation – i.e. high level of liquid propane detector, regulation and automation system for operating parameter maintenance, security system AMOT for automatic shutdown of compressors, high concentration of hydrocarbon detectors, 24 hour human supervision of the process parameters with hand logging and hourly walk-around, local detectors, visual detection.
Insulation systems: Most of the insulation systems are manually activated, on the spot. The only exception is the AMOT system for automatic shutdown of the compressors, AMOT, that can automatically shut down the compressor in cases of high number of rotation, high level registered in D-1, increased vibrations, low pressure of the fluid (oil), high temperature of cooling water.
Fire-fighting equipment: Portable fire-fighting equipment S-9, S-250,CO2-10,CO2-30, water cannons with foam
Temporary repairs and signs of deterioration: some signs of deterioration are present, however, they are logical consequence of the overall equipment age. Temporary repairs and repairs with inappropriate materials have been made during the 1990s, mainly due to the fact that it was not possible to obtain better equipment
Modification of the original design:
• Re-design of the input part of the system – T1, T101....
• Change of the working fluid – instead of the proprietary oil, refining-generated oil is used
History of incidents:
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 70
• Propane leakage on the compressor, and auto-ignition of the fluid. Apart from material damage, there was no other damage to the people or environment mainly due to an early detection of the incident and fast fire extinguishing
• Leakage of propane, butane and gasoline from the underground lines due to the corrosion of the underground lines. Consequences – propane and butane was easily spotted, and quickly fixed. Gasoline leakage was discovered at a relatively late stage, due to the fact that it did not evaporate. Soil remediation has been done by pumping up the gasoline from the soil, the whole operation lasted 2,5 months
• Problems at the furnace firing – the firing process is manual and can in some cases lead to the explosive concentrations inside the furnace and consequent injury of the person performing firing. So far no serious injuries have happened.
Safety and relief valves: the process is inherently clean, there is a potential for some corrosion mainly from the outside. No significant fouling of the RV has been registered, however, in the general process of control, some of the valves have been found not to be functioning.

2.6.6.2 Technical discussions
Technical problem 1
On the top of column T-5 sometimes a valve has to be opened. In some cases the gas (Decane) ignites and a flame appears on the top of the valve. In this case the valve will be closed again.
Discussion: The temperature of the gas is 260 0C. There are two possible ignition sources. The first possibility is electrostatic ignition. The second possibility is an ignition by hot surfaces. More probable is the ignition by a hot surface. The gas will heat up the surface of the gas. Autoignition temperature of Decane is about 210 0C. By turbulence at the end of the valve an explosive air/Decane mixture will be formed which ignites at the hot surface and lead to the flame.
Technical solution: This has not been discussed during the meeting. A possibility to mitigate the formation of an explosive air/Decane mixture is to use a three way valve instead of the existing one. The third line will be connected to a steam line. Both lines have to be opened instead of only the Decane line. This will have two effects. The surface will be cooled down under the autoignition temperature and the explosive atmosphere will be inerted. Therefore an ignition on the surface will not took place.
Technical problem 2
In combination with a pressure drop it may be that there is no liquid phase of Decane at the bottom of T4 (distillation unit). This will lead to a gas flow to the connected pumps instead of a liquid flow. The gas will be ignited in the pumps. Same problem will arise if no cooling is available for the pumps (will be cooled by water and cold oil). Normally two pumps are in operation and one is stand by. A flow indicator for Decane is responsible for the flow of the cooling liquids to the pumps.
Discussion: The reason for the ignition is the hot surface of the pumps where an air/Decane mixture will be ignited.
Technical solution: This has not been discussed during the meeting. A possible solution is as first a temperature measurement at the pumps. In the line between distillation T4 and pump a valve can be integrated. This has to be opened if the flow indicator for Decane and the temperature indicator at the pump indicate that there is no flow of liquid Decane. The open line can be connected to the flare. The valve can be closed again if the flow indicator gives a signal for liquid Decane flow.
Technical problem 3
Once per year the gas pipelines outside the establishment will be cleaned. Different kind of liquids and dusts has been accumulated over the period of one year. The Naftagas plant is responsible for the collecting of these wastes. The waste is delivered by a pressure wave through the incoming line for gas and is collected in the separator D-300. The technical problem is twofold. In the loop1 discussed during the Hazop analysis a pressure surges occur (e.g. water hammer, cavitational hammer). These pressure surges can lead to damages of plant's equipment (valves, pumps, pipe bends) up to leakage of the pipe system. After the cleaning the gaseous line will be opened again. Again pressure surges occur and parts of the equipment can be obstructed completely or partly by remaining particles. This is actual the case for the heat exchanger E-110.

Discussion: There was only a general discussion on the hammer effect on the lines where the liquid phase is in. A more detailed discussion was about the pressure wave which took place when the gaseous line will be reopened. As the heat exchanger is not really working at the moment based on pollution with dust particles the questions raised up what can happen furthermore in other parts of the plant.
It has been proposed not to concentrate on the possible damages and instead to concentrate of a mitigation of the pressure wave. At the moment a valve in a 12 inch line with a 3 inch pipepass will be opened, It has been proposed to include another valve in a 6 inch line with a 2 inch bypass to reduce the pressure wave.
The following proposals have not been discussed in this meeting.
The typical scenarios for the origin of pressure surges are fast closing valves triggered by the breakdown of auxiliary power and fast acting control devices. The fast deceleration of the liquid results in high pressure surges upstream the valve, because kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy. This effect is called water hammer that is explained by the following example. In a horizontally installed 500 m long pipeline of the size DN 200 which transports water with a velocity of 3 m/s at ambient temperature, the pressure increases by a fast closing valve from a stationary pressure of 6 bar up to 40 bar. Hereby the forces induced to pipe supports exceed the design criteria from 1-5 kN to 125 kN. Due to liquid inertia, the transported liquid continues to flow downstream the valve with the initial speed, the pressure decreases and a large expanding vapour bubble is formed directly downstream the valve. The pressure falls up to saturation pressure of the liquid and is thus lower than the pressure in the system. Thereby the liquid stream is decelerated and finally accelerated towards the closed valve (back flow). As a result of fast re-condensation of the vapour bubble, the liquid flows against the closed valve and is stopped rapidly. The resulting pressure surge is referred to as cavitational hammer. The amplitude of the first cavitational hammer downstream the valve is nearly as high as the amplitude of the first water hammer upstream the valve.
Well-known methods for the prevention of water hammer in pipeline systems are e.g. the application of air vessels, surge shafts, bladder accumulators, as well as the prolongation of closing and opening times of valves. The latter is the easiest and the most favourable method. Due to technical and legal requirements for pipeline operation within the chemical industries and power plants it is not always possible to decelerate the closing process undefined.
Air vessels, surge shafts or bladder accumulators are used if the pipeline system is not designed on the same level. These applications are installed upstream the closing valve in its immediate proximity. When shutting off the medium flows in to the loft and is braked by this.
Another possibility is the expansion of valve gears with facilities which decelerate the closure as soon as the last third of the flow cross section is nearly reached. These can be dampers (often used with swing check valves) or programmable positioners..
Technical problem 4
There is a leakage in the product lines C3 and C4 to the tanks. As the lines are underground the leakage and the size of the leakage can not be detected. There is no leak detection system installed.
Discussion: Leakage is visible by bubbles on the ground if it is raining and by parts of non growing grass.
Technical solution: This has not been discussed during the meeting. As the amount of gas is unknown there is the hazard of an explosion. The only possible solution is to repair or to exchange the lines or to build new lines on the ground and to close the old ones.
Technical problem 5
There is a compressor in use where gaseous Propane will be compressed from 1.7 to 13-15 bars. There are two problems. The first problem is in the case of a leakage in the compressor (Jet fire, explosion). Hot surfaces near by have a temperature of 500 0C. The volume of the compressor is about 0.5 cbm. The second problem may occur if liquid propane flows into the
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 77
compressor. This will normally be mitigated by a measurement of gaseous and liquid phase in the separator before. If this is not working an explosion is possible.
Discussion: This has not been discussed during the meeting.
Technical solution: There will be possibilities by using quick closing valves. This will mitigate the flow of liquid Propane to the compressor. Further technical specification possible but not done.

2.6.6.4 API 581 Qualitative (Unit-based) analysis results
The evaluation according to the API 581 qualitative method has been performed, and the overall risk of the RGE has been determined to be MEDIUM (or C3). This has several reasons:
1. Size of the refinery – it is rather small compared with other refineries or other units that are supposed to be benchmarked by the same methodology
2. The process is fairly simple and stable
3. On the other hand, the process fluids (natural gas, propane, butane, gasoline) are both explosive and flammable, therefore giving the C consequence class
4. The age of the equipment and the history of damage mechanisms result in the likelihood ranking of 3.

2.6.6.5 API 581 qualitative analysis (component based)
According to API 581, edition 1998, the qualitative analysis has been performed for 99 components, without connecting piping and rotating machinery. The work for this equipment is still in progress.
Risk matrix for qualitative analysis is shown on Figure 36. The risk assessment results are shown in Annex 24.
According to the ranking in the risk matrix, the inspection plan can be constructed, for next two years. According to the risk assessment, the equipment having high and medium high risk should be inspected at least once a year. Furthermore, for items with high risk, it is recommended to increase the inspection efficiency from class D (spot testing) to class C, in order to have better risk control.
For the equipment that has annual maintenance tasks (heat exchangers – cleaning, filters, condensers), the same inspection interval has been maintained (i.e. each year), although according to the risk ranking this interval might be increased. This is in line of maximization of the effort invested, i.e. to use the opportunity to inspect the equipment when normal maintenance tasks are done.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 80
The corresponding inspection plan (Annex 25) results in increase of inspection on equipment identified as critical (6 pieces of equipment), while decreasing the number of equipment to be inspected each year (i.e. in 2009 from 99 to 51).

2.7.3 Detail description 2.7.3.1 FCC unit S-2300
General about process
Catalytic cracking is a key process used to increase the quality and quantity of gasoline fractions. The most commonly used process is the fluid bed type, which uses a finely
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 87
powdered zeolite catalyst that is kept in suspension in the reactor by the incoming oil feed from the bottom of the reactor. Upon contact with the hot catalyst, the oil vaporizes and is cracked into smaller molecules. Vapors from the reactor are separated from the entrained catalyst and fed into a fractionator, where the desired products are removed and heavier fractions are returned to the reactor. The catalyst is deactivated by thermal degradation and through contact with heavy metals in the feed, necessitating regeneration or replacement.
FCC is used in processing of vacuum heavy gas oil which is pumped into the pipe reactor “RISER” where the actual reaction of cracking is taking place. Unit area is 90 x 100=9000 m2, construction is open and mainly made of concrete. It incorporates also a concrete chimney with 150m in height and 13m diameter base. This process breaks or cracks long chain hydrocarbons into smaller molecules in the naphtha and distillate boiling range to increase gasoline and diesel production. This process will yield 50-60% gasoline, 20-30% distillate and 30% butanes and lighter. If you do the math you will see that the volume of products is greater than the volume of the feed.
Capacity of the unit
FCC unit is designed to manufacture 3000t/dan (1.000.000t/year) of heavy vacuum gas oil that is derived from crude oil Kirkuk. The Pancevo Refinery is mostly processing crude oil of "REB" and "Kikinda" and processing capacity depends on the availability of supplies and the market requirements for final products. Flow chart is shown in Figure 42.

Reactor / Regenerator section
Fresh feed to the Unit is normally supplied as hot vacuum gas oil from the Vacuum Distillation Unit. Unit 2200. Cold gas oil from storage can also be used to supplement the hot feed or as the major source of fresh feed. up to 60% of design throughput. if desired. Excess hot feed is cooled in the VGO Cooler. EC-2307, and returned to storage. Both feeds are fed independently into the Feed Surge Drum, FA-2303.
Fresh feed is pumped from the feed Surge Drum by the Fresh Feed Pumps, GA- 302/S, under flow control through the feed preheat train to the Feed Heater,BA-230l. The preheat train consists of the Feed/LCGO Product Exchangers, EA-230l A/B, the Feed/ICGO Reflux Exchangers, EA-2302 A/B, and th~ Feed/Fractionator Bottoms Exchangers)EA-2303 A/B. The feed is then heated in the Feed Heater and routed to the FF Riser. Provision is made for the Feed Heater to be bypassed. The additional capability of routing fresh feed to the RF Riser is provided.
As eparate riser is provided for cracking recycle feed. Recycle feed is pumped to the RF Riser from the ICGO Stripper, DA-2302,by the lCGO Recycle Pump,GA-2306/S.
Fresh feed and recycle feed enter the Reactor-Stripper, DC-2301, at the base of the FF Riser and RF Riser respectively, where each feed is vaporized and raised to the reactor temperature by mixing with hot regenerated catalyst returned from the Regenerator, OC-2302. Each feed begins to crack immediately on contacting the hot catalyst. The cracking reaction takes place in the Risers of the Reactor after which most of the catalyst is separated from the Reactor vapours and falls down to the Reactor stripping section.
The catalyst fines still entrained with the Reactor vapours are disengaged in two two-stage Reactor Cyclones, FC-230l A/D. Catalyst separated in the Cyclones is returned to the Reactor bed section by the Cyclone diplegs. The Reactor vapour product passes to the Main Fractionator, DA-2301, where it is fractionated.
During the cracking reaction carbon is deposited on the surface of the catalyst in the form of coke. After passing through the Reactor stripping section where stripping steam removes entrained hydrocarbon vapours, spent catalyst passes from the Reactor through a slide va1ve to the lower section of the Regenerator, DC-2302, for coke removal.
Coke is removed from the catalyst by combustion to carbon dioxide in the Regenerator using air supplied by the Air Blower, GB-230l. Mixing of the spent catalyst with hot regenerated catalyst supplies the heat to start burning." The burning of the catalyst occurs in two stages. The "primary combustion" stage produces CO and CO2 and releases heat which almost
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 89
instantaneously raises the burning temperature. The "secondary combustion" stage occurs simultaneously as the CO burns with oxygen to form C02. Combustion of the coke to carbon dioxide is almost complete at the temperature in the Regenerator. Duri ng start-up the Ai r Preheater, BC-2301, is used to heat up the Regenerator.
The Air Blower is driven by a condensing turbine, the outlet steam being condensed by the Surface Condenser, EC-2510. Condensate from the condenser is collected in the Condensate Drum, FA-2520,and is pumped to the Offsite Deaeration Facilities by the Turbine Condensate Pump,GA-2520/S,via the Inter/After Condenser, EA-2520. The Inter/After Condenser condenses the'vapours withdrawn by the steam jet evacuation equipment. Any condensate formed in the piping between the turbine and the condenser is vaporised in the Re-evaporatbr, EA-2522.
Hot gases produced by the combustion of coke leave the dense phase of the Regenerator and enter the dilute phase where entrained catalyst is removed in three twostage Regenerator Cyclones, FC-2302 A/F and returned to the Regenerator catalyst dense phase via the cyclone diplegs. The hot regenerated catalyst leaves the Regenerator via the Fresh Feed Regenerator Catalyst Standpipe and the Recycle Feed Regenerator Catalyst Standpipe and passes through the slide valves to the FF and RF Risers.
The hot gases leaving the Regenerator Cyclones pass through the Flue Gas Pressure Control Valve, PA-2305, the Ori fi ce Chamber, PA-2307,and the Fl ue Gas Diverter Valve, PA-2306,to the CO Boiler, BF-2301,before exhausting to atmosphere via the Stack. CA-230l.
The CO Boiler produces HP steam (44.1 bar g) by recovering sensible heat, and the heat of combustion of CO when operating with non promoted catalyst, from the Regenerator flue gas. The CO Boiler is supplementary fired with fuel oil or fuel gas to provide sufficient steam to meed the demand of the FCC complex. Boi1er feed water enters the CO Boiler under flow control and passes through a preheater and economiser to improve the overall efficiency of steam generation. The steam and water mixture produced in the convection bank is separated in the steam drum and the steam is then passed through a two-stage superheater. The steam temperature is controlled by taking a slip stream of steam from the fi rst stage of the superheater and passing it through an attemperator. The attemperator and preheater are located inside the steam drum.
Fresh catalyst is fed to the Regenerator from the Fresh Catalyst Hopper, FE-230Z, using the Continuous Catalyst Addition Device, GB-2302. Equilibrium catalyst for start-up is stored in the Equilibrium Catalyst Hopper, FE-2301.
Main Fractionator Section
Superheated Reactor vapours from the Reactor, OC-230l, enter the bottom section of the Main Fractionator, DA-230l. The Reactor vapours are desuperheated by contact with a large circulating stream of cooled fractionator bottoms over six disc and donut trays. The fractionator bottoms is circulated by the Fractionator Bottoms Pump, GA-2303/S, and cooled in the following four parallel heat exchanger circuits:
A. The Feed/Fractionator Bottoms Exchangers,EA-2303 A/B
B. The LCGO Stripper Reboiler, EA-2304.
C. The Debutaniser Reboiler, EA-2505, in the Gas Concentration Unit.
D. The Fractionator Bottoms Steam Generators,EA-2306 A/B.
Controlling the rate and return temperature of this coolant affects the rate of reflux required higher in the tower. The down flowing coolant for desuperheating the vapour feed also serves as a scrubbing medium which collects catalyst entrained in the vapours. Catalyst concentration is reduced to a satisfactory amount by withdrawal of a fractionator bottoms product at the appropriate rate.
The fractionator bottoms product is drawn off downstream of the Fractionator Bottoms Steam Generators and cooled in the Fractionator Bottoms Product Cooler, EC-230l, before being pumped to tankage by the Fractionator Bottoms Product Pump, GA-2304/S. Facilities exist for the return of fractionator bottoms to the RF Riser should this operation be dictated by mechanical problems or special product requirements.
lntermedi ate Cycle Gas Oi 1, 1CGO, is withdrawn from a total draw-off tray in the Main Fractionator. Part is circulated by the lCGO Reflux Pump,GA-2305/S,under flow control, and
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 90
is cooled in the following four parallel heat exchanger ci rcuits before returning to the colurnn:
A. Feed/ICGO Refl ux Exchangers, EA-2302 A/B.
B. Deethaniser Reboiler,EA-2502,in the Gas Concentration Unit.
C. Naphtha Splitter Reboiler,EA-2507,in the Gas Concentration Unit.
D. 1CGO Reflux Steam Generator,EA-2307.
The main part of this ICGO Reflux Stream is returned to the Fractionator above the draw off tray. The remainder is returned to the bubble cap trays below the draw off pan in order to scrub out any entrained catalyst remaining in the vapour from the baffled section, and also to provide additional cooling of the vapour.
The balance of the ICGO from the total draw off tray passes to the ICGO Stripper, DA-2302. The ICGO Stripper is reboiled by circulating ICGO Recycle through the ICGO Recycle Reboiler Pump, GA-2j07/S, to the ICGO Recycle Stripper Reboiler, BA-2302, under flow control. The fi red heated serves the dual purpose of stripping and preheating the Recycle Feed. Recycle feed is pumped from the ICGO Stripper by the ICGO Recycle Pump, GA-2306/S, under flow control to the RF Riser. The ICGO stripper vapour is returned to the Main Fractionator.
Light Cycle Gas Oil, LCGO, is removed from a partial draw off tray in the Main Fractionator. Part is circulated by the LCGO Reflux Pump,GA-2308/S, under flow control and is cooled initially by preheating boiler feed water in the LCGO/BFW Exchanger, EA-230S, and preheating the Debutani ser Feed in the Debutaniser Feed Preheater, EA-2S03. These combined streams are then cooled by passing some of the LCGO Reflux through the Lean Sponge Oil Cooler. EC-2305, before returninq to the Main Fractionator. Some of the LCGO Reflux from the outlet of the Lean Sponge Oil Cooler is pumped by the Lean Sponge Oil Pump, GA-2309/S, to the Sponge Oil Absorber, DA-2501, in the Gas Concentration Unit before returning to the Main Fractionator, and some ;s passed to the Gland and Flushing Oil Surge Drum, FA-2307, to be used as gland and flushing oil.
The remaining LCGO from the Main Fractionator passes to the LCGO Stripper, DA-2303t where light ends are stripped from the light cycle gas oil with heat supplied by fractionator bottoms in the LCGO Stripper Reboiler, EA-2304. The stripped vapours are returned to the Main Fractionator. The LCGO product is pumped by the LCGO Product Pum~ GA-2310/S, through the Feed/LCGO Product Exchangers, EA-2301 A/~ to the LCGO Hydrotreating Unit (Unit 2400) or to storage via the LCGO Product Cooler, EC-2303.
A naphtha sidestream is withdrawn from the Main Fractionator between the LCGO draw-off and the column overheads. Thi s stream is ci rcul ated under f1 ow control by the Top Pumparound Reflux Pump, GA-23l1/S,to the Propylene Splitter Reboi1er, EA-2515,in the Gas Concentration Unit before being returned to the Main Fractionator.
Fractionator overheads are cooled and partially condensed in the Fractionator Overhead Condenser, EC-2306. Water soluble corrosion inhibitor is injected upstream of the Fractionator Overhead Condenser using the Fractionator Overhead Corrosion Inhibitor Pump, GA-2514, to prevent hydrogen blistering. Unstabilised gasoline and vapours are separated in the Fractionator Overhead Accumulator, FA-2304, with the vapours flowing to the GCU Gas Compressor, GB-2501. Unstabilised gasoline is pumped under level control by the Fractionator Overhead Pump,GA-2312/S,to the Raw Gasoline Cooler, EA-2501, in the Gas Concentration Unit and is also used as pumpback ref1 ux to the Main Fractionator to control overhead temperature. The condensed water phase and sour water passed into the boot of the Fractionator Overhead Accumulator from other Units is pumped by the Sour Water Pump, GA-2313/S,to the Sour Water Stripper Unit (Unit 2900).
Process Steam Generation and Blowdown
Boiler feed water from offsite is preheated in the LCGOI BFW Exchanger, EA-2305,and passed to Fractionator Bottoms Steam Generators,EA-2306 A/B,and the ICGO Steam Generator, EA-2307,for generation of medium pressure steam. Steam generated in these exchangers is superheated in the superheat coil of the ICGO Stripper Reboi1er, BA-2302, and passed to the M.P. Steam Header.
Continuous and intermittent b10wdown from the Steam Generators and the CO Boiler, BF-2301,are passed to the M.P. B1owdown Drum, FA-2521,where L.P. steam generated passes to the L.P. Steam Header. The b1owdown passes under level control to the Atmospheric

B1owdown Drum, FA-2522, where it is quenched with raw water before passing to the oily water sewer.
Slide Valve Air System
Dry plant air, with a water dew point of -40 °C, is provided to supply the power to actuate the automatic slide valves. The air supplied to each valve passes to an air motor operated power unit which directs the air supply to drive the valve in either direction, depending on the signal being received from the automatic controller. Alternatively, the slide valve can be moved by the manual operation of a local 4-way valve which performs a similar function. The Slide Valve Air Surge Drum, FA-230l, is provided to operate the valves during an emergency. The drum is sized to hold sufficient air to close each operating valve once from the wide open position without the reservoir pressure dropping below 4.1 bar g.
Spry Water System
In· the event that any portion of the Regenerator exceeds 730 °c for short periods, spray water from the Spray Water Drum, FA-2302, should be injected into the Regenerator by the Spray Water Pump, GA-2301 IS. Spry water should be removed from the Regenerator at the first opportunity to prevent catalyst deactivation and .to regain optimum combustion air control.
Gland and Flushing Oil System
Light Cycle Gas Oil is normally used as pump gland flush oil and flushing oil for instruments, the supply being taken from downstream of the Lean Oil Cooler, EC-2305. An alternate diesel supply is provided at start-up from offsite storage. The LCGO passes into the Gland and Flushing Oil Surge Drum FA-230~and is continuously circulated around a ring header system using the Gland and Flushing Oil Pump GA-23l4/S. This system is also used for flushing equipment which can be taken out of service while the rest of the unit is in operation.

Condensate from the LP condensate header is also fed into the Low Temperature Condensate Drum, FA-25l 7. Flashed steam is exhausted to atmosphere. Flashed condensate is fed by the Compressor Condensate Booster Pump, GA-25l8/S, to the First Stage Compressor Condenser, EC-250l, to the High Pressure Separator Airfan Cooler, EC-2502, and to the Alkylation Unit (Unit 2600) to be used as water wash in the DP Water Wash Settler, FA-2509, and the DIS Water Wash Settler, FA-26ll. Additional condensate is supplied by the Process Condensate Pump, GA-2521/S, vi a the flashed condensate header to theCondensate Surge Drum, FA-2404, in the Hydrotreating Unit (Unit 2400), to the Spray Water Drum, FA-2302, in the FCCU, and to other intermittent users. The excess condensate fram this pump is routed to the offsite deaeration facilities. If insufficient condensate is available, boiler feed water is fed into the Low Temperature Condensate Drum, FA-2518.
Corrasion Inhibitor System
In order to protect certain items of equipment fram corrosion and hydrogen blistering a water soluble based corrosion inhibitor system has been provided. The corrosion inhibitor i5 mixed with turbine condensate in the Corrosion Inhibitor Drum, FA-2515. The solution is mixed using fuel gas which is vented to the flare system. The following items of equipment and its downstream piping are protected by injecting the material using the following pumps:
Injection Pump Main Equipment

Fuel Gas System
Fuel gas from the Refi nery Fuel Gas Sys tem i s fed i nto the Fuel Gas Mixing Drum FA-23l0 before passing to the fuel gas header. At start-up or when insufficient fuel gas is available fram the Refinery system, fuel gas is provided by vaporising LPG, taken from offsite or from the feed to the Depropaniser, DA-2507, in the LPG Vaporiser, EA-2310. This is mixed with the fuel gas from the Refinery in the Fuel Gas Mixing Drum.
The fuel gas header feeds fuel gas to the FCCU heaters via the Fuel Gas KO DrUm,FA-2305, to the HTU heaters via the Fuel Gas KO Drum, FA-2425, to the Sulphur Recovery Unit via Fuel Gas KO Pot, FA-2318, and to all other users.
Flare Header System
All safety reliefs resulting fram the lifting of pressure safety relief valves are fed to the Refinery Flare System via the FCCU/GCU Flane KO Drum,FA-2523. This drum handles reliefs from the FCCU, GCU, Amine Regeneration L1nit and Sour Water Stripper. Any hydrocarbon liquid knocked out in the Flare KO Drum is pumped by the Fl are KO Drum Pumps t GA-2525 A/B,to the light slops header. This drum also serves as an atmospheric flash drum at start-up when raw gasoline from the Raw Gasoline Cooler, EA-250l,is run down, via this drum.to the light slops system.

2.7.3.6 Utilities and effects
Major supplies
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 98
The major outside supplies for FCC and the connected safety problems are shown in Table 46.
The internal electrical distribution system is working now without any problems. In the year 2006. the transformer unit has been completely rebuilt.
Table 46: FCC supplies
Type of supply Safety problem
Electricity Possible problem could cause that no electricity will be delivered and this, further, could cause a safety problem. A hazard analysis does not exist.
Fuel gas No problems
Steam Sometimes problems but no safety problems
Instrumental air Only problems if electricity is not available
Nitrogen No problems
Cooling water Smaller problems. Up to now cooling water delivery was reduced in two cases caused by leaks in the system.
Loss of electricity
One of the most important outside supplies for FCC is electricity. Hazard analysis has never been done for this case. Loss of electricity could cause safety problem, even may lead to a Domino effect if something else goes wrong simultaneously. Loss of electricity could affect differently some types of equipment as shown in the following table.
Table 47: Some effect of loss of electricity
Equipment/ installation affected
Possible safety problem
Reactor Slide valves will close and reaction will stop. Some valves will opes due to their basic function and the steam will be released. Result will be steam in the reactor and the process will stop. (less than 10 seconds). Temperature will increase as no cooling exists.
Regenerator Regenerator will be a separate unit as all slide valves are closed. The remaining coke and catalyst will still react. There are about 90 tons of catalysts in the regenerator. A balance of the remaining coke and air is difficult regarding the high reaction speed. Nevertheless as the concentration of Oxygen is reduced the concentration of CO may increase and may cause explosion problems.
Column Temperature and pressure will increase as the ventilator used for the air coolers are not longer working. The safety valve at the top of the column will open.
Air coolers No problem as the temperature will go done very fast if the feed will not be continued.
Pressure vessel No problem as functioning is not depending on electrical equipment.
Sensor/ Instrumentation Are still working as using a 24 V line.

2.7.4 Safety of the plant 2.7.4.1 History of accident
The establishment has been build up from 1981 up to 1984. The production started in 1985. From 1985 to 1992 there was a period of normal operation. From 1992 to 1996 there was no operation. From 1996 to 1999 was again a period of normal operation. The establishment has been bombed in 1999 and rebuild in 2000. From 2000 up to now there is again a period of normal operation. The average production is about 80% of the total capacity.
2.7.4.2 Hazards identified
The Hazards related to the operation of the FCC Unit are associated to uncontrolled release of hazardous materials, mainly due to failure of components due to causes not directly related to process deviations (Loss of Containment events).
The cases of possible loss of containment identified and analyzed in the report are chosen to represent the possible range of hazardous materials that can be released and the process conditions of the release.
Possible accidental scenarios caused by process deviations are controlled and protected by the Process Control System and by the Shut Down System, so that their probability of occurrence can be considered to be negligible. They are therefore not further analyzed in this report.
The Release cases (Top Events) identified for the analysis are:
1. TOP1 - Release of propylene from the bottom of Vessel FA-2514 2. TOP2 - Release of gasoline from the bottom of column DA-2503 3. TOP3 - Release of propane from bottom of propane splitter DA-2509 4. TOP4 - Release of toxic gas (H2S) from FA-2953 5. TOP5 - Release of mixture of toxic gases from FA-2455.
The above cases allow to represent hazards related to the presence of both, flammable materials and toxic materials, from vessels, columns and furnaces.
For the Propylene splitter section, including FA-2514, an HAZOP analysis has been done. This section contains the largest inventory of hazardous material in the Unit, therefore an assessment of the process deviations for this unit was conducted, to assess if there is any specific process deviation that can contribute to leaks in this Section.
HAZOP analysis has been done using web based tool designed by R-Tech (Figure 43 - Figure 46) and following .
TOP1: Release of Propylene from bottom of Pressure Vessel FA 2514
In the loop, shown in Figure 47, a pressure vessel (FA 2514) and a condenser (EC 2508) have been considered. The vessel is a part of the propanizer section; short description of this section is given in subsection 3.1, simplified flow diagram is given in Annex 1.
The pressure vessel has a volume of 21 m3. The operational pressure is 19.9 bar and the operational temperature 44 0 C. The pressure vessel contains propylene. The vessel is filled by max. 10 – 12 m3. The stream is coming from the top of the column with 140 m/hour. The intention is to recycle the condensed phase to increase the purity of the product. The stream will be re-circulated in the column.
Sensors are measuring the level and the pressure and are responsible for the regulation. External sensors are measuring the gas concentration outside the vessel.
The pressure vessel is protected by two safety valves acting by 22 bar. The vessel is design for 22.5 bar and 52 0 C. The safety valves are designed as a redundant system as one valve is able to protect the vessel. The design of the valves for one phase dispersion or two phase dispersion is unknown. (Probably done for one phase dispersion which will not consider the real situation.) Additional a sprinkler system is installed for cooling the vessel in the case of a fire.
The whole flow is based on the pressure difference between column and vessel which is 400 mbar.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 100
No flow to the vessel is possible if a valve is closed but will cause no safety problem.

Figure 44: HAZOP tool - Loop description
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 101
Figure 45: HAZOP tool – Nodes
Figure 46: HAZOP tool – Drawing
More flow is not possible as the pressure in the vessel will increase which will decrease the pressure difference between column and vessel and will reduce automatically the flow. Furthermore the heater of the column will be stopped automatically. The deviation flow is directly connected with the deviation pressure. Therefore pressure is not further considered. Temperature can not increase or decrease in this loop.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 102
For a shut down all lines will be cleaned with steam and for a start up all lines will be cleaned with nitrogen,
Figure 47: Loop1 - TOP1 Event, FA-2514
The Hazop analysis has confirmed that a leak in the pressure vessel is a scenario to be quantitatively assessed, while no specific process deviations able to cause a more significant scenario have been identified.
Scenario identification
Following a mechanical failure due e.g. to corrosion, material defects etc, it is postulated that a complete rupture of a 6” pipe connected to the pressure vessel FA-2514 will occur.
This scenario is chosen to represent a credible worst case of release from the FCC Unit, giving the process characteristics and the full-bore rupture considered.
In case the resulting pool is not ignited, the accidental scenarios develops as a flammable gas dispersion with possible Flash Fire or UVCE.
In case of immediate ignition, a Pool Fire will occur.
The probability and consequences of the accidental scenarios are analyzed in following Sections 3.3 and 3.4.
TOP2: Release of gasoline from bottom of Column DA 2503
Column DA-2503 is a part of debutanizer section of Gas concentration unit; description given in chapter 2.7.3.2 and flow diagram in Annex 20. Simplified flow diagram showing position of the column is given on Figure 48.
The column has pressure of approx 13 bar and a temperature of 190 C.
This event represents the release of a flammable material at high temperature and pressure, giving possibly rise to a two-phase jet.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 103
Figure 48: Column D 2503 – debutanizer section of S 2500
Scenario identification
Two possible release scenarios are postulated, one corresponding to a significant leak (diameter approx 1”) and one corresponding to a major leak (diameter approx 4”).
The release will be in form of a two-phase jet causing, if ignited, a jet fire. In case of late ignition of the dispersing cloud, Flash Fire or Unconfined Vapor Cloud Explosion (UVCE) will occur.
The probability and consequences of the accidental scenarios are analyzed in sections 2.7.5.
TOP3: Release of propane from the bottom of column DA-2509
Propylene splitter DA-2509 is a part of Gas concentration unit, Propylene splitter section; description of the unit given in chapter 2.7.3.2 and flow diagram in Annex 20/
Column DA-2509 has pressure of approx 21 bar and a temperature of 62 C. Simplified flow diagram showing position of the column is given on Figure 48.
This event represents the release of propane at relatively high temperature and high pressure, giving rise to a two-phase jet.
Scenario identification
Two possible release scenarios are postulated, one corresponding to a significant leak (diameter approx 1”) and one corresponding to a major leak (diameter 3”, pipe diameter).
The release will be in form of a two-phase jet causing, if ignited, a jet fire. In case of late ignition of the dispersing cloud, Flash Fire or UVCE will occur.

Vessel FA-2953 is a part of section for amine regeneration; description of unit given in 4..., simplified technological scheme in Annex 3.
In case of failure of vessel FA-2953, a mixture rich in H2S (approx 90%) will be released. This case is chosen to represent a possible leak of a toxic material within the Plant.
Scenario identification

2.7.4.3 Frequency of occurrence of hazards
The frequency of occurrence of accidental scenarios is assessed on the basis of historical data on leaks and ruptures from typical process components. Statistical data available are summarized in Table 48.

Cremer & Warner, “A report to the Rijnmond Public Autority
The data above are derived from experience up to the eighties; to date the availability of tools and procedures specifically dedicated to the improving of safety like Safety Management Systems, RBI etc makes it realistic to consider that the frequency of failure should be lower than those experienced up to 20 years ago or more.
To take this into account, a factor of reduction of 0.1 is applied to the all the values given in the Table 2.
The frequency of occurrence of the final scenario depends on the probability of ignition (immediate or delayed). From technical literature, the following values for the probability of ignition are considered:
• Immediate ignition of gas/flashing leaks: 0.3 – 0.01
• Immediate ignition of a liquid pool fire: 0.05 – 0.01
• Delayed ignition of flammable cloud: 0.15 – 0.01
• Probability that the delayed ignition will cause an UVCE: the possibility that an UVCE occurs depend on the amount of flammable material in the cloud. It is considered that for a quantity of gas within the flammable limits lower than 1000 kg, the UVCE can not occur, and only a flash fire is considered. For quantity of gas within the flammable limits higher than 1000 kg, the probability of having UVCE following ignition is considered to be 0.3.
The frequency of occurrence of accidental scenarios is calculated by Event Tree analysis, on the basis of estimation of the above values. The frequency of occurrence of the scenarios can then be classified according e.g. to the classification given in Table 49.
On the basis of the above classification, events having a frequency of occurrence lower than 10-7 per year are considered to be practically not credible and are therefore not further analyzed.
The frequency of occurrence of the Hazards identified is assessed as described in the following sections.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH

Probable > 10-2 Unlikely 10-4 ÷ 10-2 Very unlikely 10-6 ÷ 10-4
Extremely unlikely < 10-6
TOP1: Release of Propylene from bottom of Pressure Vessel FA 2514

The resulting leak frequency is estimate to be in the order of 5E-7 events/year.
The frequency of occurrence of a pool fire is estimated to be (considering the probability of ignition) 5E-8 events /year.
The frequency of occurrence of a VCE / Flash Fire is estimated respectively in 2E-9 and 4E-9 events /year.
Notwithstanding the low frequency of occurrence of the scenarios, the consequence analysis will be done to assess the consequences of a worst case scenario (even if the frequency assessment makes it to be considered not credible).
TOP2: Release of gasoline from the bottom of Column DA 2503

The frequency of occurrence of a jet/pool fire is estimated to be (considering the probability of ignition) 3E-6 and 1E-7 /year respectively.
The frequency of occurrence of a UVCE / Flash Fire is estimated respectively in 1E-7 and 5E-9 events/year.
TOP3: Release of Propane from the bottom of Splitter DA-2509
The frequency of occurrence of the release (significant and major leaks of a 3” pipe) is estimated considering 20 m of piping.
The resulting leak frequency is estimate to be in the order of 1E-5 and 5E-7 events/year.

The frequency of occurrence of a UVCE / Flash Fire is estimated respectively in 1E-7 and 5E-9 events/year.
TOP4: Release of toxic gas from vessel FA-2953
The frequency of occurrence of the release is assessed considering the leak from the outlet section piping of FA-2455. Considering the leak from a tank wall, the frequency is estimated in the order of 1E-5 events/year.
TOP5: Release of toxic mixture from the vessel FA-2455
The frequency of occurrence of the release is assessed considering the leak from the outlet section piping of FA-2455. Considering the leak from a tank wall, the frequency is estimated in the order of 1E-5 events/year.

Consequence analysis modeling
The analysis of the consequences of the accidental scenarios has been done using computer codes, with the process data and assumptions discussed in the preceding chapters. The analysis has been done considering two meteorological conditions: low wind velocity associated with stability class F (stable atmosphere) and medium wind velocity associated with stability class D (neutral atmosphere).
In the following sections, the main results of the consequence analysis are given.

SCENARIO DEVELOPMENT
The Propylene leak is considered to be directed downward, forming a pool of liquid that, in case of ignition, will cause a Pool Fire. If the pool is not ignited, it will start evaporating and the resulting cloud will disperse. If the cloud is ignited at distance from the source, where the gas concentration is still within the flammable limits, it can give rise to an UVCE or a Flash Fire, depending on the congestion conditions.

2.7.4.6 Summary of Hazard Analysis
The results of the hazard analysis are summarized in Annex 23. The following information are given:
• initiating event
• accidental scenarios deriving from initiating event
• frequency of occurrence of accidental scenarios
• damage distances.
2.7.4.7 Measures to prevent or mitigate the hazards
Measures to avoid the occurrence of leaks and ruptures, to avoid ignition of leaking substances, to limit effects of fires/explosion, to avoid or control process deviations are Organizational and/or Technical and are described in Chapter 2.1.3.4.
Organizational measures
The intended major maintenance period is every three years. In reality at the moment there is a major maintenance shut down per year as the process has been modified to increase the efficiency of the process. The modification can partly lead to erosion and corrosion. This has to be controlled at the moment by a yearly inspection.
The pressure vessels will have an inside inspection every three years and every six years the pressure will be tested. This inspection is based on a national law which is connected with EU regulations.
It is not an obligation in Serbia but regarding the topic explosion protection the Risk Management division has started to consider the requirements of the ATEX Directives. An explosion protection document has been developed which has been submitted to the Ministry. The exchange of the equipment in regard to the requirements of the ATEX Directive will be done step by step. Furthermore the German TA Luft will be implemented.
The inspection is in the responsibility of the production and maintaining department of RNP and planning of safety aspects is in the responsibility of the Risk Management department.
Lighting protection
Lightning is high frequency event in summer and has lead to two accidents in the past. About 10 years ago a safety valve has been fired by lightning and last year a burning flare has been addressed by lightning.
The normal protection measure is earthing. The maintenance period for the control of the protection measure is once a year as required by law. The measurement of the resistance and continuity will be done. All safety valves are protected by steam extinguishers. This task is from 2007. in the responsibility of Risk Management division and will be done by an external party.
2.7.4.8 Measures to reduce the consequences of an accident
Constructional and technical measures are presented in Chapter 2.1.3.4.
Further, bow-tie analysis has been done for selected top events described in Chapter 2.7.4.2 and summarized in Table 63.
The bow-tie is a structured method to assess risk where a qualitative approach may not be possible or desirable. The success of the diagram is that it is simple and easy for the non- specialist to understand. The idea is a simple one of combining the cause (fault tree) and the consequence (event tree). When the fault tree is drawn on the left hand side and the event tree is drawn on the right hand side with the hazard drawn as a "knot" in the middle the diagram looks a bit like a bowtie.
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 117
The exact starting point of the Bowtie Methodology has been lost in time but it is believed that they were originally called “Butterfly diagrams” and evolved from the Cause Consequence Diagram of the 1970s. It is then thought that David Gill of ICI plc developed the methodology and called them bowties in the late 70’s. It is generally accepted that the earliest mention of the bowtie methodology appears in the ICI Hazan Course Notes 1979, presented by The University of Queensland, Australia.
Bowtie diagrams for FCC have been created for selected top events which are to be prevented by
• analyzing threats that could cause the event to occur • analyzing consequences of the event occurring • using available controls to prevent the event occurring and • using available controls to mitigate against the consequences

2.7.5 Risk assessment The risk associated to the FCC operation is assessed through a Risk Matrix.
2.7.5.1 Frequency ranking
The frequency of occurrence of scenarios is assessed according to the classes given in table :
2.7.5.2 Damage severity
The severity of damages associated to each scenario is assessed according to the following classes, where the severity is related to the maximum distance at which the damage levels
STEINBEIS ADVANCED RISK TECHNOLOGIES GmbH
page 118
are experienced. It shall be noted that the definition of severity considers major hazards having a potential impact on the population, as required by the Seveso II directive.
Table 64: Definition of Frequency Classes
Classification Frequency (events/year) Scenario
PROBABLE > 10-2
UNLIKELY 10-4 ÷ 10-2
VERY UNLIKELY 10-6 ÷ 10-4 S10, S11
EXTREMELY UNLIKELY < 10-6 S1 – S9
Effects limited to the plant personnel are therefore in this context considered as not defining a major hazards. These are assessed and controlled by Occupational Health procedures and analyzes.
Table 65: Definition of consequence severity classes
Classification Damage
Neligible No significant effects if not in the vicinity of the involved equipment
Significant Effect dangerous for life (12.5 kW/m2, 0.14 bar, IDLH) reached within the FCC Unit.
Serious Effect dangerous for life (12.5 kW/m2, 0.14 bar, IDLH) reached outside the FCC Unit, limited within the Refinery fences.
Major Effect dangerous for life (12.5 kW/m2, 0.14 bar, IDLH) reached outside the refinery fences.
On the basis of the above definition, the risk associated to each scenario can be assessed as in the following Risk Matrix, where three levels of risk are sown: an High risk area (in red) where prevention and protection measures shall be considered to reduce the risk, a Medium Risk area (in yellow) where prevention and protection measures should be considered to reduce the risk, a Low risk area (in green) where the risk can be considered to be tolerable and no further measures are necessary.
