Flare igniters were continually burning off the flare at Foster Creek due to heavy gas and not high enough gas flow. This was a schedule driven project that Allnorth was able to respond to quickly to support Cenovus’s environmental compliance. The project scope was to add a pilot gas line to the flare header complete with PIT, XV, MARP flowmeter and restriction orifice.
The design objective was to create a basic incinerator to improve the burn of this flare during certain periods. At the time of a flare, the operator would open the XV, after the flare event, the XV would be closed.
Allnorth was responsible for providing the following to support the new piping and instrumentation:
- P&ID, PFD, and LDT
- Shutdown key and control narrative
- Electrical and instrumentation drawings
- Instrument datasheets including instrument bid/evaluate/ready to award
- Structural support details
- HAZOP participation
- Construction work package
- Engineering support during construction and commissioning
