Successfully processing a changing crude diet can be a challenge from the tank farm through distillation. Upsets and performance reductions lead to processing cost penalties downstream, loss of production, and environmental impacts through greater emissions and brine water quality issues. Optimizing the design, operational parameters and chemical injection schema from crude receipts through the hot train can minimize these cost penalties and ensure performance is maintained.
