CALCULATION ENGINEER – PRESSURE VESSELS
December 2014 to May 2015:
Description : Mechanical calculation notes of equipment (Pressure Vessel / Shell & Tubes Heat Exchangers) for a FLNG project
- Challenge : Around 80 different equipment, in both Pressure, Motion and Blast design + , Mechanical data sheets + requisitions
- Job to do :
- Preliminary calculation notes (ASME II + WRC 107)
- Motion and Blast Calculation
- Mechanical data sheets and requisition prior to consulting
- -Problems :
- Us of Bentley Autopipe Vessel (MICROPROTOL) without any preliminary learning
- Great number of equipment (~80) in a very short delay (6 months)
- Special metallurgy needs (SA-738, SA-537…)
- Pressure up to rating 1500#
- Solutions :
- Standardization of Mechanical data sheets for each material main type (Carbon steel, Stainless Steel, SA-738, SA-537…) and position (Horizontal / Vertical)
- Improvement of heat exchanger Mechanical Data Sheet to recover easily process data (half automated processus)
- Several similar equipment calculated at the same time to reduce calculation time
