Annual savings of $2 million
Posted: 29 December 2004
The Ruwais refinery division of the Abu Dhabi Oil Refining Company (Takreer) has adopted a series of measures that have led to control of flaring to yield savings to the tune of Dh7.3 million ($2 million) annually.
It has four elevated flares, one each for hydroskimmer, hydrocracker, and condensate units of 211 and 411. The sources of flaring are mainly from fractioners overhead of the process units and non-condensable hydrogen according to a report in Gulf News.
The refinery has identified the major sources of flaring by introducing spider diagrams in the operating units, taking prompt action to minimise flaring creating awareness at the individual and team levels, which have combined to contribute to increase the profitability of the company, reduce pollution, protect environment and reduce occupational hazards, said a publication of Takreer.
