As part of the project, the work for construction of a cross-connection between two tank farms, Kaleykino-2 and Kaleykino-3, and a flow control station as well as for installation of ultrasonic flow meters, that has been in progress at the Kaleykino pump station (PS) of the Romashkino Regional Oil Pipeline Department (a subsidiary of Transneft Kama Region, JSC) since 2014, now has been completed.
The upgrade actions implemented enable the pumping of low-sulfur crude from the Kaleykino-2 tank farm to the Kaleykino-3 tank farm and further to the Almetievsk-Gorky-2 and 3 oil trunk pipelines. This measure reduces the sulfur content in the crude flow supplied to these pipelines.
Low-sulfur crude, supplied for compounding to the Almetievsk-Gorky-2 and 3 pipelines, is metered using ultrasonic flow meters. Quality of the crude is monitored by the sulfur analyzers installed in the systems for measuring oil quantity and quality (OQQMS).
The compounding system comprises over twelve valving units, a quality-measuring unit with an in-line sulfur analyzer, and a firefighting system. Control of the low-sulfur crude flow is based on the readings of an in-line sulfur analyzer, installed between the booster and the main pump stations, and the instantaneous flow values.
