Dear DMS Members,

President & CEO Mohammed Loch mloch@dmsglobal.net

In a world where competitive advantage means that a vendor has figured out a way to sell its product at a lower price than its competitors, it becomes a struggle to develop better technology.

Many a new product that could save the user time and money and provide higher productivity have failed to establish an installed base for a couple of reasons; first there is the “has it proven track record (PTR)?” dilemma but second it has to get past the purchasing department. The first is simple to understand because the cost of lost production can be too huge to risk a product with no field track record that could result in huge costs due to failure of said product. It is possible to get around this by targeting customers that are more open to new technology and who can carry-out field tests as pilot projects but then, even if proved to be reliable and provide better plant availability, the purchasing department is another matter. The purchasing department unfortunately are, for me at least, the biggest obstacle to improving bottom lines and yet are touted by many as the saviour and biggest reason for a decline in costs of material. Material costs are only the tip of the iceberg when considering the total operational costs of a plant and yet they seem to be given the greatest importance. The PTR mentioned above has an assumed cost to the user if the new product fails and yet no such cost saving seems to be applied (at least in my experience) to a material that performs better than a competitive product or saves on maintenance department personnel costs. No value judgement is made because this could actually lead to a reduction in the number of competitors and thus reducing the purchaser’s ability to realise a cost saving that he was targeted with during the year. There are many products that are pitted against other products because the specification is technical rather than commercial in nature and hence asked to compete on a metric that doesn’t do justice to the value that it will bring to the user. I have come across products that can be proven to save days of shutdown due to the simplicity of changeout and are measured on the material cost against other products that provide the same use and yet the product delivers 100 times more savings through lower lost production and labour costs and yet the 1st question is always; “how much does it cost?”. If we are to take advantage of technical advancement or just products that reduce the cost of production, ie. provide real value that goes further than just lower material cost, we must change the metric for which we measure the competitiveness of a product over another. However we can make a start by simply changing purchasing department targets to reducing the operational costs of a company rather than focusing on only the material costs.

Kind Regards,

IRPC - Maximum Aromatics (MARS) Project In the third quarter of 2017, IRPC Plc, the petrochemical component of Thailand’s national oil and gas conglomerate PTT Plc, announced its plans to increase its production of olefins and aromatic output through a project called “Beyond Everest” located in Rayong. Beyond Everest project scope involved boosting production capacity of ethylene to 560,000 tonnes per year at the company’s existing production, whose current capacity is 400,000 tonnes In the first quarter of 2018, IRPC decides to revamp and rename “Beyond Everest” into “MARS (Maximum Aromatics)” project. The MARS project aims to increase the production of olefins and aromatic output by converting some refined oil into petrochemical feedstock. The MARS project has been reassessed time and time again for the past two years given the difficulty of predicting development costs and was initially

estimated to cost $1.2 billion. Production capacity is currently expected to increase to 1.3 million tonnes of paraxylene (PX) annually and 500,000 benzene as compared to its previous production capacity of 1 million tonnes of paraxylene and 300,000 tonnes of benzene. Included in the $1 billion budget, the MARS project also entails a $400 million revamp of an olefins project which composes of a production facility for ethylene and propylene and aims to increase ethylene production to 500,000 tonnes while increasing propylene capacity to 250,000 tonnes yearly. In the third quarter of 2018, IRPC is finalizing its pre-building schematics for the MARS project with completion expected by year-end. The construction period is also expected to commence by mid to late 2019 with commercial production slated by the year 2023.

Malaysia’s Asia Petroleum Hub Malaysia’s oil and gas industry was said to have started in 1910’s Sarawak oil discovery. This has created numerous opportunities for Malaysia, attracting foreign oil companies to invest and create employment opportunities for the locals. The industry became more prominent across the globe and has spawned a thriving upstream and downstream business involving local companies and creating jobs as well. Planning carefully along with effective legislature has led to the effective and efficient management of Malaysia’s oil and gas resources. Asia Petroleum Hub (APH) has a potential to become a major market for petroleum products because it is one of the largest petroleum storage projects in Asia. The project involves the construction of a petroleum storage facility with a 950,000m3 capacity on 40

hectares of land. It includes an oil storage terminal, seven fixed berths for vessels, a single-point mooring system for ultra-large crude carriers, a logistics hub, and a ship repair and maintenance center, and the installation of loading facilities for tanker trucks, bunker barges for offshore bunkering of ships, and other safety systems. The Asia Petroleum Hub oil terminal is located in Iskandar Malaysia, Johor within the Free Commercial Zone (FCZ) of Tanjung Pelepas. The APH is designed to provide trans-shipment and storage facilities and serve as a strategic hub to domestic and regional markets. Once completed, the project will become one of the largest fully integrated terminals in the world. Construction works have been ongoing for the project as it is targeted to be completed by 2019.

LNG Terminal Expansion Project Singapore LNG Terminal was completed in May, 2013 and consisted of two storage tanks. A third tank and regasification facilities have been added in Q1 2014, increasing terminal’s capacity to 6 million tonnes per annum (MTPA). Singapore LNG Corporation (SLNG) is now developing the phase 3 expansion of the existing terminal. The project aims to increase the capacity of LNG from 6 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) to around 11Mtpa. The phase 3 of the project will include the construction of a 260,000-cubic meters fourth storage tank and the added key facilities of a new terminal substation, additional open rack vaporizers (ORVs) and LNG booster pumps. Back in April 2014, SLNG issued a tender for the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contract. On 26 August the client awards Samsung C&T Corporation the main contract. The sub-contractors

for the project include VSL Singapore, Kok Chang Scaffolding, Fluor, Loh & Loh Construction, Kogas-Tech, Woongnam Singapore, Antara Koh, CS Construction & Geotechnic, Hiap Seng Engineering. Currently, the project is in construction stage and is scheduled to be completed by Q4 2018. The regasification facilities have been completed in September 2017. The new fourth LNG storage tank will be one of the largest storage tanks in the world, and receive a full cargo load from a Q-Max carrier (which is currently the largest LNG carrier in the world). The project will not only enhance energy security but also help to meet increasing domestic gas demand, supporting Singapore’s LNG sector. SLNG terminal has potential for development of phase 4 should there be investment in the future.

Going forward with digitalization, there are lot of opportunities

Tuan Haji Khairol Anuar B Shukri

for not only for PETRONAS, but also for oil and gas players to work together with the industries. We should start our collaboration very early. Vendors should understand what are the pin points of their end users so that they can work together with the end users and come up with the most competitive solutions for them.

Head of Group Technical Solutions Project Delivery & Technology PETRONAS

I believe that end users should use events like this to express what they want. So in turn, the vendors would develop according to what their customer wants rather than what they think they need.

DIGITALIZATION

Essential Elements of Digital Transformation By Peter Reynolds, ARC Advisory Group

Keywords Digital Transformation, Industrie 4.0, Industrial IoT (IIoT), Maturity Model, Organizational Readiness.

Overview Industrial organizations around the world are entering a period in which new digital technologies augment people and processes to an unprecedented degree. New, commoditized computing resources in the cloud (and at the edge) and artificial intelligence (AI) are changing how people work. Approaches such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and Industrie 4.0 have helped pave the way for digital transformation across a broad swath of industrial sectors, including both upstream and downstream oil & gas and petrochemicals.

Most industrial process companies globally will undergo a digital transformation to some degree or other in the coming years. However, many companies today tend to focus efforts on technology, without considering the full organizational impact. ARC has developed a maturity model that can help answer some key questions relative to digital transformation. Digital transformation spans industrial products, operations, value chains, and aftermarket services. It augments people and knowledge through expanded use of sensors, data, and analytics. ARC Advisory Group believes that most industrial process companies globally will undergo a digital transformation to some degree or other, with many already actively piloting advanced technologies. However, many companies today tend to focus their efforts on technology, without considering the full organizational impact. ARC research shows that only a small percentage (5 to 8 percent) of industrial organizations consider themselves ready for a digital transformation program. Many others are not prepared to scale up the pilot programs currently in progress. ARC research also indicates that barriers to organizational accountability, culture and employee change management impede transformation. Digital transformation requires a shift in approaches to deploying and utilizing technology. To help identify these gaps, ARC has developed a maturity model for

digital transformation based on multiple consulting engagements with end user clients. Companies can use the model to help answer the following questions: • What is the role of the emerging digital organization? • How can my company begin to transform? • How can we leverage existing data without compromising security? • How can we best prepare employees for digitization? • How can we accelerate knowledge and competency? • How can my organization scale up delivery? • What are the metrics for success?

Key Technologies Impacting Industrial Manufacturing Several emerging technologies have major impact on the process industries, each in a unique way. ARC’s maturity model for digital transformation connects these with people, culture, technology processes, and business processes. Industrial organizations have found this helpful to determine their respective organizational readiness for transformation.

Digital Transformation Technologies Many of the newer technologies require changing the way technology leaders think about people, technology architecture, and process. Many of today’s plant-centric approaches will not support new technologies and approaches. Historically, plantlevel operational technology (OT) systems have been procured and supported by plant engineering or operations staffs. But new information technology (IT)-based systems require internal IT staff or cloud service providers to manage and host the platform infrastructure, with engineering and/operations helping define the operational and supply chain outcomes.

Essential Elements of Digital Transformation To determine readiness for digital transformation,

DIGITALIZATION ARC has assembled maturity models that cross the boundaries of technology, business process and most important, people. We use these to help our clients evaluate current business processes and human capital, benchmark against industry peers, and perform a gap analysis. The maturity elements considered include: • Teamwork and culture • Knowledge transfer • Capability and competency • Decision making • Workforce performance • Employee change leadership • Business process governance • Process improvement and agility • Measures and KPIs • Technology architecture and governance • Transformative potential and risk tolerance • Data management Clearly, the digital transformation of industry has the

potential to contribute significantly to global economic growth. The World Economic Forum estimates that Industrie 4.0 alone could contribute more than $20 trillion to global gross domestic product (GDP) by 2020. However, this will require a well-focused effort that includes preparing the workforce, implementing the appropriate IT infrastructure, and adjusting business processes. ARC research indicates that many management systems currently in place create barriers to digital progress. Often, hierarchical management structure, weak employee change management leadership, and organizational silos create artificial barriers to information, impeding decision making, and - ultimately - hampering business performance. ARC’s “elements of digital transformation” will help companies assess their respective readiness to transform. This consists of two main categories of organizational maturity: people readiness and business process readiness. Each element has its own implications for digital transformation.

Digital Transformation Elements and Organizational Implications Element

Digital Implication

Culture

Digital culture is based on a foundation of sharing. AI will be an enabler for process excellence. AI requires Big Data from many sources. Insights and knowledge are shared within an open governance framework, empowering people to make a difference.

Knowledge

Semantic search technologies have transformed knowledge on the web, with company tacit knowledge and know-how digitized, personalized, and transferable to employees as needed. AI-based knowledge systems drive new capability.

Capability and Competency

The entire organization uses a continuous improvement framework of individuals, workgroups and competency processes. Well-understood talent allows project teams to leverage their greatest assets.

Decision Making

Manual and labor-intensive activities detract from the company mission. Pervasive automation, Big Data, AI, and closed-loop systems allow people to focus on abstract and complex decisions.

Workforce Performance

Positive individualized performance assessment influence organizational change and drive continual process improvement and innovation.

Employee Change Leadership

A digital culture requires change leadership competency at all levels of the organization. Transformed processes require vision, skills, and enthusiasm at all levels.

Business Process Governance

A digital organization can quickly adapt processes to take advantage of emerging technologies. Business processes, governance, and mapping to workflow and activity levels must be understood.

Process Improvement & Agility

Employees are to be trained on a formal corporate wide continuous improvement program incorporating Lean Manufacturing, leveraging the emerging technologies. An agile, Cloud-first deployment is standard. Industry best practices are followed for all applications.

Measures/KPIs

64 Automation

Business improvement requires the ability to interpret, measure, and prioritize business process and performance. A digital organization uses collaborative metrics aggregated and mapped internally and/or externally as needed to drive change. | September 2018


Improvement & Agility

improvement program incorporating Lean Manufacturing, leveraging the emerging technologies. An agile, Cloud-first deployment is standard. Industry best practices are followed for all applications.

Measures/KPIs

Business improvement requires the ability to interpret, measure, and prioritize business process and performance. A digital organization uses collaborative metrics aggregated and mapped internally and/or externally as needed to drive change.

Technology Architecture & Governance

Shared IT and OT governance of converged technical architecture based on governance models. Investment planning and continuous improvement are coordinated and collaborative as a unified, highperformance organization.

Transformative Potential & Risk Tolerance

There is a shared business and technology (IT-OT) process to perform a cross-functional assessment of risk versus benefit to the company as a result of introducing new technologies, work processes, people, and skills. Programs exist to deploy leading-edge technology as a competitive advantage and evaluated for its transformative potential on corporate level contribution to the financial success of the overall company.

Data Management

Data at all levels of the organization is treated as a strategic asset. All staff are empowered and equipped to take stewardship of the information and seen as knowledge workers.

DIGITALIZATION

ARC Recommendations

people and change leadership.

ARC believes that, if not addressed appropriately, current organizational factors and the lack of key internal processes will hamper the ability of many industrial organizations to succeed in digital transformation, thus retarding agility and business performance and leaving them at a competitive disadvantage. Many industrial organizations already acknowledge the need to better position the company to implement new digital and internet-enabled technologies without compromising cybersecurity. But as the OT and IT worlds continue to converge, a different technical organization may be required. The company’s technology leadership teams must evaluate how to make better use of the existing infrastructure and data, create more value from existing applications, avoid duplication of effort, and make best use of OT and IT resources at the plant and enterprise levels. As we move to a digital economy, many industries are gradually shifting many IT services to cloudbased service providers like Amazon and Microsoft. Addressing this shift to the cloud will be a critical step for successful digital transformation by transferring some technology accountability to the business stakeholders. Based on ARC research and analysis, we recommend the following actions for industrial organizations:

• Assess your organizational readiness using the elements of digital transformation discussed in this report, paying particular attention to the crossorganizational process boundaries. Engage with an independent consultant to assist, if needed. • Examine the processes used by IT and OT groups and look for potential gaps that could slow progress. • Do not underestimate the degree of work process change and develop methods for addressing this. • Help your workforce become comfortable with the inevitable change and disruption by investing in

Various Techniques For ‘Proof Testing’ To Maintain Sil Throughout Safety Life Cycle RAJESHKUMAR MODI (BE (E&C), C. Eng, CFSE, TUV-FSE) - Lead SIF and F&G Engineer, LNG, O&G Industry.

unit/equipment in run state without sacrificing safety – with degraded mode in the applied voting for specific time interval during proof test duration.

INTRODUCTION

SAFETY LIFE CYCLE (SLC) CONCEPT

A proportion of time spent behind three phases i.e. Analysis, Design & Operation, of Safely Life Cycle (SLC) of Safety Instrumentation System (SIS); the most critical Analysis Phase will be having the shortest time, the Design Phase will be having moderate time & Operation Phase will be having the longest time. This is an imprecise proportion as performance of whole safety life cycle depends on the Safety Requirement Specifications (SRS) which is an outcome of Analysis Phase having least time in the project. The complete system is designed on derived Safety Integrity Level (SIL) and will be maintained throughout Operation phase. Hence, the Operation Phase is the longest time span of the SLC in which all Safety Instrumented System (SIS) remains in operation but in dormant mode, however needs to maintain the desired Safety Integrity Levels (SILs) which were assessed and designed to achieve required Risk Reduction. In any circumstances, if the installed SIF loop misbehaves or does not respond to demand then there are probabilities of development of Hazardous situation and may get converted into the Hazardous event. Therefore, it is essential to test and verify the SIL of an individual SIF within predefined time period (test interval) to maintain the desired SIL throughout the SLC. Furthermore, the other dependent aspects such as Demand Rates & Failure Rates are also required to monitor and compare with the considered or assumed rates during analysis phase. To execute testing functions, various techniques have been developed based on the enriched experience over a period of time. Moreover, international standards are also providing reasonably good ideas and methods to end users in the descriptive manner to maintain desired Safety Integrity Level & relevant performance. Above all, the technological evolution have provided many advancement to the latest state of the art instruments. Hence with embedded intelligences, the diagnostics capabilities have been improved significantly which are enhancing many features and ultimately improving reliability and availability of different subsystems of the SIS. Based on the developed various proven tricks & techniques such as Partial Stroke Testing – PST, NAMUR Analog signal levels, MVC (Measurement Validation & Comparison), MOS (Auto, Negative, Positive), and credit to shut-down due to actual demand, etc. are in use to verify and maintain the designed SIL. Also, these techniques help to avoid the false trip and keep plant/

Safety Life Cycle for Safety Instrumented System describes the concept of whole life cycle from C to D i.e. Conceptual to Decommissioning, which covers in THREE phases; Analysis, Design & Operation. The growing complexity of Industrial processes need more intelligent safety system to achieve the desired plant safety. Proper care at the initial stage – Analysis Phase of the project can prevent several accidents by framing appropriate Safety Requirement Specifications.

Accidents are likely to occur as a result of; a) malfunction of safety system/subsystem: due to improper selection, aging, environmental stress, etc., b) misoperation: due to human error, misunderstanding, etc., c) improper maintenance: due to incompetency, insufficient guidance, etc. and d) modifications. All these causes are accountable as they generate various hazards which may get converted in to Industrial accidents and create consequences like injury, loss of life, environmental damage, assets loss, production loss, etc.

PROCESS SAFETY However, all mentioned causes can’t prevent dysfunctional of safety system due to wrong engineering or design. As per HSE95 study for primary causes of system failures; Specification contributes major 44.1%, Design and implementation contributes 14.7% and the last Operation phase contributes 41.2%. Hence by means of appropriate cares, Analysis phase can help to eliminate systematic failure, Design phase can help to reduce safe or dangerous failure by means of appropriate redundancy or fault tolerances and Operation phase can help to control random failures by proper proof testing.

NEED OF PROOF TESTING Hazard & Risk Assessment (H&RA) is to be carried out to derive safety integrity levels (SIL) for each SIF. SIL is a discrete level assigned to the derived PFDavg value from Failure Rate (Lambda) and Test Interval (Ti) for demand mode. It is allocated to each SIF loop for specifying the safety integrity requirements to be achieved by the installed Safety Instrumented System (SIS). A proof test is a test designed to reveal failures within the SIF that would otherwise be undetected and that prevent the protection function (dangerous failures) to execute on demand. Therefore, Proof test serves primary purposes within the safety lifecycle is to find unrevealed failures and to rectify identified failures in the system, so that it can be helpful to validate the failure rate assumptions used in the Safety Integrity Level (SIL) calculations. When designing a proof test, both the requirements - functional, ‘how the SIF should work’, and - Integrity, ‘how the SIF should perform’ in addition to general requirement and any other exceptions as mentioned in Safety Requirement Specifications, are considered. The latest state of the art smart instruments performs diagnostic tests which are normally referred as online tests or automated tests and are performed either continuously or very frequently. Diagnostic tests detect dangerous failures and can change them to ‘safe’ failures by bringing the process to a safe state or in to an alarm, so that operations/maintenance personnel can initiate appropriate action. Whereas a proof test is performed at a predefined time interval to verify that the device will respond as expected to an unsafe condition and has not experienced a dangerous undetected failure, in case if any failure found means the process was running with a failed safety function before it is revealed.

68 Automation

| September 2018

Proof testing is designed to reveal dangerous faults in sub-systems /components which were not be detected by diagnostic capability embedded in them and subsequently adversely affects the integrity of the SIS. Standard defines Proof Test as ‘Test performed to reveal undetected faults in a Safety Instrumented System (SIS) so that, if necessary, the system can be restored to its designed functionality (IEC 61511 – 3.2.56)’ For the calculated average Probability of Failure (PFDavg), if proof test is performed at the considered test interval (Ti); means, Proof tests on systems/subsystems are carried out at constant time intervals. The frequency of the proof tests shall be as decided using the PFDavg or PFH calculation in accordance with 11.9 for the SIS as installed in the operating environment.. (IEC 61511, 16.3.1.3). For this the applied generic equation is; PFDavg = (λDu) * Ti/2 It is not always possible to execute proof test function at the plant turnaround span as it may be insufficient to maintain the desired SIL. In such situation, test interval frequency required to be increased by applying ONLINE proof testing facilities. Where the interval between scheduled process downtime is greater than the proof test interval, then online testing facilities are required. (IEC 61511, 11.8.1) In this condition, the applied generic equation is; PFDavg = Cpt(λDu) * Tipt/2 + (1-Cpt)(λDu) * Tift/2 For this equation: Cpt – Proof Test Coverage factor, Tipt – Proof test interval & Tift – Full Test interval are to be considered. The Cpt depends on the instrument type (A or B) used for SIS. As the level of proof test effectiveness increases, more and more dangerous failures are detected. This means that undetected failures are turning into detected failures, leaving the undetected failure rate to descend. Usually, Proof testing should be carried out; after commissioning as part of a validation test, part of schedule periodic testing, and after any maintenance. METHODS OF PROOF TEST Methods to perform Proof test are ON-LINE & OFFLINE. OFF LINE Proof Test It is preferable to perform OFF-LINE Proof test as it is possible to achieve 100% proof test coverage in most cases. To perform OFF-LINE test, it is desirable to remove field devices. Majorly, it is planned during plant turn around or special arrangement to be made available to perform


PROCESS SAFETY this test hence only that the specific process/ application to which the test applies is offline. ON LINE Proof Test This is not a surprising situation as manufacturing organizations prefer to curtail plant downtime and suppliers seek to develop and market technologies that aim to satisfy this desire. Hence, when process is in running condition, test is to be performed by applying suitable techniques on the selected SIF loop. The design shall allow for testing of the SIS either end-to-end or in segments….(IEC 61511, 11.8.1) Due to Operation constraint or Safety reasons, if Full (End to End) loop test is not possible, then, partial/segment loop test for devices or subsystems are applied. …….Where the interval between scheduled process downtime is greater than the proof test interval, then on-line test facilities are required…. (IEC 61511, 11.8.1) To perform ON LINE Proof test, either redundancy or specific arrangements such as Force, MOS, etc. for subsystems of SIF loop are applied. During this test, the selected SIF loop will be in degraded mode. However, end users to ensure that specific test shall be performed within the assumed/ considered test time in the PFDavg calculations. For some cases, appropriate facilities like PST, Mechanical jammer, etc. shall be applied to Final Elements. WHY TO PERFORM PROOF TEST? • To Achieve - uninterrupted plant operation • To Maintain – designed SIL though out the Operation phase • To Ensure - instrument will perform desired safety function when demanded • To Ensure – selected technology and architecture is functioning as assumed • To Ensure – assumed failure rates are still valid even after long operation • To Cope up – with process design & plant operation complexity • To Identify - undetected failures (dangerous, not revealed by instrument) during normal operation • To Fulfill - increasing awareness & standards’ requirements (ISA/IEC) • To Meet – with the legislative or insurance needs, as applicable TECHNIQUES FOR ONLINE PROOF TEST Various Techniques used for Online Proof Testing • FORCING • AUTO-OVERRIDING • MAINTENANCE OVERRIDE SWITCH: POSITIVE

Even if required, then apply after proper Risk Assessment and by Competent Maintenance Personnel with alert to operator as a part of approved procedure. For the FORCED tag, an indication of Compensating measurement is essential. When input or output signal is FORCED, it must be for very short time span with additional measures as it ignores actual field status input to logic or actual output status from logic to field, respectively. AUTO-OVRRIDING NAMUR NE 43 uses the 3.8 to 20.5 mA signal range for measurement information, with signals ≥21 mA or ≤3.6 mA to indicate Failure. With this information, it’s easier to detect status of an analog signal, whether the signal is Over/Under range or in failed status. In case of failure, the configured logic in logic solver overrides the faulty signal and feeds healthy signal to logic for configured time span i.e. 60 minutes. Meanwhile, panel operator to initiate action to apply MOS and intimate maintenance personnel to initiate action. This facility helps to avoid faulty trip, majorly applied to logic with 1oo1 voting.

MAINTENANCE OVERRIDE SWITCH (MOS) MOS is applied to input signals by Panel Operators and strictly limited to maintenance & test applications without adversely affecting the plant production. It helps to prevent faulty trip, allows to attend faulty field sensor and to execute proof test function online i.e. process running condition. Maintains healthy input signal to the logic regardless input status, however designed to view actual Field status / analog value on Logic Solver.

be applied to one tag only. During this, the logic is converted in to 1oo1 voting and actual process demand can actuate the logic by another tag which is in line. This MOS is applied when there are chances of measurement gets struck or erratic and acquire erroneous healthy status. PARTIAL STROKE TESTING

Where more than one sensing devices are used in the field to form redundancy, a Measurement Validation and Comparison (MVC) technique is used to create live comparison amongst them in DCS by configuring alarm on the 5% deviation in the reading. Hence, any constant or erratic reading with respect to other tags will come to operator’s knowledge and he can apply MOS to the particular faulty tag to sort out the issue. For MOS operators attentiveness is vital as quick and well controlled action is envisaged from them.

According to the statistics of the Offshore Reliability Database (OREDA), failure of an individual subsystem is majorly distributed as 50% in final elements, 42% in sensors, and 8% in the logic solver. Means, almost 92% contribution is on the account of field devices. The Final Element is the most vulnerable as having multiple elements and moving mechanical components. Also, it is the most difficult, time consuming and costly efforts to perform 100% (Full Test) test coverage. It is required to remove final element from the process line which is not possible frequently during process running condition. Hence, to maintain SIL, a technique Partial Stroke Testing is applied to check the ability of safety

MOS TECHNIQUES Positive MOS (Feeds ‘1’ to logic) When the developed architecture is having 1oo2 voting with inbuilt MOS facility. The MOS will be applied, when one Input Signal is unhealthy/ faulty/under proof test, it feeds ‘ON’ e.g. healthy signal from MOS contact to Final Logic Gate. This arrangement keeps final output contact in HEALTHY status and allows to attend faulty tag of logic. During Proof Testing, +Ve MOS can be applied to one tag only so the actual logic will act as 1oo1 voting and actual process demand can actuate the logic through another working tag which is in line for 1oo2 voting. Positive MOS is also applied within the specified time limit i.e. 60 minutes in 1oo1,1oo2,1oo3 voting during Auto-Override after verification of faulty reading by panel operator. Negative MOS: (Feeds ‘0’ to logic) When the developed architecture is having 2oo2 voting with inbuilt MOS facility. The MOS will be applied, when Input Signal is unhealthy/faulty/ under proof test. It feeds ‘OFF’ signal from MOS contact to Final Logic Gate. This arrangement keeps final output contact in HEALTHY status and allows to attend faulty tag of logic. For proof testing, it is applied to the tag which is taken out from the service. However, at a time, -Ve MOS is to 70 Automation

valve’s performance and allows to move up to some extend to perform proof testing. A small valve movement may be sufficient to detect several causes of dangerous undetected failure modes without interrupting the production. The fraction of dangerous undetected failures detected by PST among all dangerous undetected failures is referred to as the PST coverage factor. PST is often performed at regular intervals which are shorter than the function test interval. For ball valves average PST coverage factor varies based on type and diagnostic capabilities of instruments used to develop hook up for PST. For a valve, a proof test that only confirms that the valve can fully stroke typically has effectiveness of about 70%, also proof test coverage may be much lower even if tight shutoff performance is required. If this valve is shown as having perfect proof testing, the PFD value for the valve will be misjudged. Because of imperfect testing, the PFD never returns to its original value.


PROCESS SAFETY

Partial-Stroke Test Methodology There are three basic types of partial-stroke test hookups: mechanical limiting, position control, and solenoids. Each type involves different levels of sophistication and risk.

valve to a pre-determined point. This method can be used on rising as well as rotary stem valves. The cost and complicated hookups are major drawbacks for this method. For this techniques, an appropriate way to collect the test information i.e. HART station, is to be used which can be used to generate test documentation for future reference and diagnosis purpose. Hence, partial stroke testing with HARTcapable valve positioners can detect about 80 percent of potential problems automatically. Solenoid

Mechanical Limiting Mechanical limiting methods apply multiple techniques in the installation to limit the degree of valve travel. These methods are inexpensive in terms of capital and installation costs. Majorly, they are manually initiated and manpower intensive. Also, when any mechanical limiting method is used and testing is in progress, the availability of valve to process to initiate shutdown will be sacrificed in case of actual process demand.

A limit switch or visual inspection is used to confirm valve movement. Successful implementation and return to normal operational status are completely procedure driven. Position Control Position control uses a positioner to move the

A partial-stroke test can be accomplished by pulsing a solenoid valve. The solenoid can be the same solenoid used for valve actuation, resulting in a low capital and installation costs for the method. If the actuation solenoid valve is used, this method will also test the solenoid valve functionality. The time of the pulse must be adjusted for each valve and solenoid pair to achieve the desired valve travel. Valve travel confirmation is accomplished by a limit switch or position transmitter. Partial-stroke testing does provide measurable improvement of the PFD over full-stroke testing alone. The amount of improvement is dependent on the specification, configuration, and application environment. CREDIT OF SHUTDOWN DUE TO ACTUAL DEMAND If it is not possible to perform Scheduled Proof Test, then allowed to take credit of actuation due to actual demand shutdowns due to actual demand on the SIS during operation may be given credit as proof tests (fully or partial) (61511, P-2, A.16.3.1.3) According to the provided technical guidance in IEC61511, Part-2, the credit of shutdown based on the actual process demand can be taken, if the SIF loop / tag actuated as a part of the shutdown action, within a predetermined maximum time window i.e. test interval. It is desirable that shutdown event should occur prior the next planned proof test interval - (approximate 10% prior). This allows to skip next planned proof test for that particular SIF loop. However, for the credit of shutdown, few conditions need to be fulfilled like: - shutdown events properly logged with time stamps, sensors responded and final elements moved to the safe state within the predicted/specified time to meet specified Process Safety Time of the SIF loop. Additionally, physical condition of field devices are to be checked and confirmed.

CONCLUSIONS It is mandatory that person involved for any Safety Function shall be CAPABLE & COMPETENT to do the defined task. However, due to several reasons like, insufficient competency/knowledge/ training, improper procedure/guidelines/ understanding, evolving technology /novel designs/ obsolescence, etc. it is a big challenge for end users to maintain the derived SIL for rest of the life time. It is important for End Users to consider various points which force to evaluate internal procedure to execute proof testing in his own organization like; Do we have…………….. • Safety Life Cycle aligned with IEC-61508/61511/ ISA 84? • covered all critical/safety tags? • online proof testing facility to improve plant turnaround span? • enough procedure/protocol to perform online Proof Test? • competent staff for the defined activities with scheduled training? • clear roles & responsibilities for each activity? • in-house facilities to carry out the SIS activities? • actual failure rates/modes analysis & comparison with design specifications? • procedures for collecting failure rates & types. • trained operator with compensating measurement indication for each critical tag? • perfect plan and procedure to keep test, audit, assessment records? • operation/process colleagues competent to act properly when situation demands. • operation/process colleagues confident about online Partial Stroke Test facility? • plan to take real advantages of online proof testing with appropriate techniques as mentioned in the IEC/ISA? • proper Documentation procedure? ……..and so on many such points need to pondered to maintain SIL throughout the Operation Phase of SLC and helps to prolong the plant turnaround, so that reliability, availability, safety, productivity and profitability can be maintained and further improved.

When a Dream Needs a Gentle Push to Give It Wings-Sponsored by Analytical Division Of ISA Growing up as the youngest child in a family of five, abandoned by your father, neglected by your elder brother and sister, with just your mother who is a day laborer in a physically unwell state of health and with the dreams of one day becoming a Chemistry Professor is really hard. This is exactly the condition of Mohammed Sajib Sheik, a 10 year old boy hailing from a slum in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Sajib’s father abandoned the family a long time ago. His elder brother and sister are both married and living their own happy lives while almost totally neglecting the existence of their own mother and brother. Sajib’s mother, Sofia Begum works as a day laborer to provide for herself and Sajib. But, because of being physically unwell, she isn’t able to go to work daily and so the responsibility of taking care of his mother and himself falls on the meek shoulders of young Sajib. He has to works after school, selling newspapers and water bottles to meet their needs. Like all other kids of his age, Sajib too loves playing cricket. He sings as well. But unlike every other kid whose role model might be a cricketer in this cricket crazy nation, Sajib’s role model is Alfred Bernhard Nobel, the world famous Swedish Chemist and founder of the Nobel Prizes, and hence his love for Chemistry. Once, at school, during a session of Science, the teacher was teaching about mixtures and it was a little above the understanding capabilities of a regular Sixth Grader, but Sajib easily understood the concepts and was given the opportunity to perform experiment in front of the whole class, and that too very successfully. He is passionate about his dreams to become a Chemistry professor one day and that is clearly reflected in his academics. But the only thing in his way to achieve that dream is the current situation he is in. No one to help him progress with his education, no one to guide him and help him plot his next steps 78 Automation

in education. And this is where C2C has come in to help him. C2C has taken Sajib under its wings and are supporting him by providing 1000BDT per month to help take care of their accommodation needs so that he can use the money he earns by himself to help complete his education and pursue his dreams of becoming a Chemistry Professor. C2C has a really good idea of how Sajib should carry on his education so as to achieve his dream. The Bangladeshi educational system is basically divided into 7 levels: •Pre-primary: Play School to Kindergarten •Primary: Grade 1 to Grade 5 •Junior School: Grade 6 to Grade 8 •Secondary School: Grade 9 to Grade 10 •Higher Secondary: Grade 11 and Grade 12 •Bachelor’s Degree: 4 years •Master’s Degree: 1 year According to the above given system, Sajib is now in Junior School and has a minimum of 9 years of education left to finally be able to achieve his dream. As per the Government curriculum, basic Science will be taught to all students from Grade 6 to Grade 8. From Grade 9, Science will be broken down into Physics, Chemistry and Biology. And it is also from Grade 9 that the education stream will be divided into Science, Arts and Commerce and this will be followed up until Grade 12. So, Sajib will have to opt for the Science stream from Grade 9 and then continue his education to attain a Bachelor’s Degree in Chemistry and then opt for a Master’s Degree in Chemistry to increase his chances of becoming a Chemistry Professor. Sajib is currently being sponsored by the Analysis Division of ISA. With a helping and guiding hand behind him, Sajib can easily achieve his dream and build a brighter future for himself and his family.
