Hydrocarbon Processing Awards Winners
<i>Hydrocarbon Processing,</i> the downstream processing sector’s leading technical publication, has announced the winners for its third annual awards. The <i>HP</i> Awards celebrate innovative technologies and people that have been instrumental in improving facility operations over the past year.
Engineering Case Histories: Case 108—Failure analysis computations differ from design
When equipment fails, it indicates weak points and usually exposes the cause(s) of the failure.
Reliability: Viewing issues out of context may be a waste of time
An alternative to the above title would be “Test your rotating equipment engineers’ IQ.”
From traditional to green refinery: The transformation of Eni’s Gela plant
The need for a more sustainable energy mix is setting a challenge for refinery operators.
Reliability: Comparing and updating aeration blower technologies
As the main consumers of electricity in a wastewater treatment plant, aeration blowers can significantly affect the overall cost of plant operation.

Advantages of using TDL analyzers for safety monitoring in combustion within HPI applications
From refining to chemical production processes, heaters play an essential role in hydrocarbon processing applications.
Pumps handicapped by not using best available technology
Pump lubrication deficiencies are often denied, and the outstanding reliability performance of oil mist is vastly underreported.
An evolving approach to digitalization
Much has been written in recent years about the need for refineries to embrace the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).
Adapting and prospering in the energy transition
The energy transition is gathering momentum as pressure from society leads policy makers and investors to demand faster and deeper cuts to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from all industrial sectors.
