• Pipe stress analysis for the enlargement of the tankfarm of Standic in Antwerp.
  The design of this enlargement was based on the existing tankfarm previously designed by JMEC Engineering B.V. (a subdivision of J. de Jonge) in Vlaardingen.
  The basic design was performed by Tanc B.V.
  The insulated tanks can be cooled or heated. In addition, they have dedicated lines and pumps, avoiding cross contamination. Standic Antwerp focuses entirely on chemical products.

  ---

  The pipe stress analysis had to be performed with the same pipe stress programme as the analysis of the existing tankfarm.

• SNC Aquarius Event Moerdijk.
  Pipe stress analysis for the repair of the damage of the high pressure steam system (515°C 110.5 bar) caused by a reaction between the catalyst and ethylbenzene that led to pressure in the reactor of the plant, two explosions and a fierce fire. This resulted in the rebuilt of the Shell MLO (Moerdijk Lower Olefins) factory. This factory produces chemical base materials for plastics.
  The Aquarius project was an extremely time-driven project and was successfully concluded by fall 2015.

• Pipe stress analysis for the Marine Well Containment System. The MWCS is build for the purpose of rapid response to a possible damaged sub sea well operating in the Gulf of Mexico. The MWCS is specifically designed to capture hydrocarbons from a damaged well without significantly increasing wellhead pressure to avoid further damage to well integrity. The MWCS is designed to capture, store and offload up to 100,000 barrels of fluid per day from a flowing well, and is capable of flaring 200 million standard cubic feet of natural gas per day. The MWCS is designed to operate in deep water in a variety of Gulf of Mexico (GOM) metocean conditions, a range of reservoir characteristics, and a variety of well bore failure scenarios. The sub sea system capacity can be expanded using equipment and vessels of opportunity.
