About the project:
PFL was tasked with loading off-spec Natural Gasoline from pressure cars that were previously loaded with propane and or butane into regular liquid trucks. Because the railcars last contained LPGs, they had higher pressure than is typical for Natural Gasoline (between 40 and 120 pounds of pressure). Since liquid trucks can only withstand a maximum of a few pounds of pressure, PFL had to get creative.
What did we do?
- Loaded the off-spec product from a pressure railcar into a pressure truck.
- In a closed-loop system, we performed vapor recovery on the pressure truck to push vapors back into the railcar and bring the truck down to 0 PSI.
- Once the liquids were isolated with no pressure, we loaded the off-spec product from the pressure truck into a liquid truck for shipment to a blending terminal As we celebrate this achievement, we remain steadfast in our commitment to further enhancing our safety practices and delivering exceptional results.
PFL will continue to invest in innovative technologies, provide ongoing training and support, and foster a culture of open communication to sustain our excellent safety record.
Once again, we extend our sincere thanks to the entire PFL team and our valued partners at BP for their unwavering commitment to safety. This award is a shared success, and it inspires us to strive for even greater heights in the pursuit of safety excellence.
