The test blasts were carried out by detonating some single blastholes at two upper sites of the underground storage cavern for the crude oil. One was performed at the entrance site of the construction tunnel and the other at the middle area of the underground storage cavern. Based on the blast-induced nitration measured by the test blasts, we suggested the propagation equations of blasting vibration that were capable of estimating the peak particle velocity. In addition, in order to assess the stability of the adjacent ground storage tank, we did the frequency analysis and the response spectrum analysis with the particle velocity-time history and the particle acceleration-time history that were measured by the test blast carried out on the entrance site of the construction tunnel. In result, it was predicted that the displacement on the highest part of the tank shell was less than the allowable displacement.

This paper dealt with the propagation characteristics of acoustic signal in insulation oil for the purpose of improving the reliability of AE (acoustic emission) method used for condition monitoring of oil-immersed transformers. A discharge source was placed in insulation oil and AE sensors ($f_c$ :140 kHz) were attached on the oil tank to study the changes of velocity and propagation path with the depth and distance. The average velocity was 1,436 m/s and the velocity decreased with the increase of depth from the oil surface to 430 mm. The propagation paths were classified into three sections by the shortest reflection path of the detected signal. The minimum distinguishable distance in each section was 70 mm. It was also verified that PD (partial discharge) with a magnitude over than 500 pC can be detected by the AE sensors.

For the measurement of liquid level in ship's cargo tank, ballast tank, fuel oil tank and fresh water tank, several types of gauge meter are used such as tubular type, magnetic float type, reflex type transparent type and welding pad type. Among them, magnetic float type gauge meter is environmental friendly device because it is free of power source and maintenance. The main obstacle of the device is relatively large error bound. In this paper, finite element method is used to design and analysis of the magnetic float type gauge meter. The operation of reed switch according to the magnetic field has been successfully described and agreed well with experimental measurement. The optimum geometry with combination of permanent magnet and reed switches are designed to achieve 98 % accuracy of fluid level.

This study compares Static Terrestrial Laser Scanning (STLS)with the conventional Total Station (TS) method for the geometric assessment of cylindrical storage tanks. With the crucial need for maintaining tank integrity in the oil and gas industry, STLS and TS methods are evaluated for their efficacy in assessing tank deformations. Using STLS and TS, the roundness and verticality of two cylindrical tanks were examined. A deformation analysis based on American Petroleum Institute (API) standards was then provided. Key objectives included comparing the two methods according to API standards, evaluating the workflow for STLS point cloud processing, and presenting the pros and cons of the STLS method for tank geometric assessment. The study found that STLS, with its detailed and high-resolution data acquisition, offers a substantial advantage in having a comprehensive structural assessment over TS. However, STLS requires more processing time and prior knowledge about the data to tune certain parameters and achieve accurate assessment. The project outcomes intend to enhance industry professionals' understanding of applying STLS and TS to tank assessments, helping them choose the best method for their specific requirements.

모든 원유 (crude oil)와 제품유 (petroleum product)는 서로 구별되는 탄화수소특성을 가지고 있다. 원유의 경우 산지별로 고유한 특성을 지니고 있으며, 제품유의 경우 같은 유종이라 할지라도 그 원료가 되는 원유의 특성, 생산공정, 생산시기 등에서 차이점이 발생한다. 즉, 생산시기가 동일하다 할지라도 선박의 연료탱크내에 남아있는 잔류유와의 혼합 동에 의해 구별되는 특징을 가지게 되며 이러한 특성을 이용한 기법을 유지문기법(oil fingerprint method) 이라 한다. 본 연구에서는 최근 새로운 유지문기법으로 활용 가능성이 대두되고 있는 2 차원 가스크로마토그래프 (Comprehensive Two Dimensional Gas Chromatography)를 이용하여 기존의 가스크로마토그래프 (GC)와 가스크로마토그래프 질량분석기 (GC/MS) 와의 분석방법 비교 등을 통해 유지문 분석기법의 실효성에 대해서 논하고자 한다.

With the development of the plant industry, there has been an increasing frequency of major accidents both domestically and internationally, emphasizing the importance of plant safety. Therefore, this study aims to investigate measures to enhance the stability of piping, a key component within the plant. Upon examining the piping, erosion, buckling, and fatigue emerged as significant risk factors among various potential hazards, leading to their selection as the primary risk factors in this study. Identifying variables that can collectively mitigate these factors, the study focuses on the material, thickness, and elbow angle of the piping. The reference piping model is established as the pipeline connecting the Skim Tank and IGF within a 300BPD oil sands modular plant in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do. Utilizing the FEA analysis program ANSYS, the study conducts a variable analysis for the identified risk factors. The results of the analysis, through comparison and evaluation, provide evidence of the effectiveness of enhancing stability. It is observed that reducing the elbow angle significantly improves erosion and buckling, while changing to a material with high yield stress most significantly enhances stability when considering fatigue.

The drilling mud is essentially used in oil and gas development. There are several roles of using the drilling mud, such as cleaning the bottomhole, cooling and lubricating the drill bit and string, transporting the cuttings to the surface, keeping and adjusting the wellbore pressure, and preventing the collapse of the wellbore. The fragments from rocks and micro-sized bubbles generated by the high pressure are mixed in the drilling mud. The systems to separate those mixtures and to keep the uniformly maintained quality of drilling mud are required. In this study, the simulation is conducted to verify the performance of the mud tank's agitation capacity. The primary role of the mud tank is the mixing of mud at the surface with controlling the mud condition. The container type is chosen as a mud tank pursuing efficient transport and better management of equipment. The single- and two-phase simulations about the agitation in the mud tank are performed to analyze and identify the inner flow behavior. The convergence of results is obtained for the vertical- and axis-direction velocity vector fields based on the grid-dependency tests. The mixing time analysis depending on the multiphase flow conditions indicates that the utilization of a two-stepped impeller with a smaller size provides less time for mixing. This study's results are expected to be utilized as the preliminary data to develop the mixing and integrating equipment of the onshore drilling mud system.

본 논문은 CFD 해석법을 이용하여 사고 선박의 손상부 형상에 따른 기름 유출량 변화를 예측하고, 이론 추정식에서 이를 고려할 수 있는 방출계수 도출 결과를 소개한다. Froude수와 Reynolds수 상사를 만족하는 조건에서 다상유동 해석법을 사용하여 모형선 크기의 기름 유출 문제를 다루었다. 수치해석 결과는 알려진 실험 결과와 비교하여 검증하였다. 수학적 형상들로 정의한 손상부 형상의 변화와 함께 손상부 가로세로비와 기름탱크 두께의 변화가 기름 유출 유동에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 보다 현실적인 상황을 고려하기 위해 손상부의 찧어진 철판의 영향에 대한 해석도 포함하였다. 수치해석 결과를 통해 사고 선박의 손상부 형상에 따른 기름 유출량의 변화를 확인하였으며, 다양한 손상부 형상이 가지는 점성 영향을 방출계수로 정량화하여 추출하였다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 방출계수에 대한 검증을 위하여 알려진 기름 유출량 주정식에게 적용하였으며, CFD 해석과 좋은 일치를 얻었다.
