Trouble Shooting & Incident Investigation.

Cutting Cycle Time.

 Root cause of almost all coker incidents is Coke Drum Switching Practice. There are 40-70 small steps to switch one pair of coke drums. Besides sequence of steps, each step has its own time, speed, conditions and interlocks. These are defined by process conditions and material composition inside the coke drum. A slight change or inadvertent action can disturb the material inside the drum and cause incident. Therefore, to understand ‘what goes on inside the coke drum’ during these cycle steps and for consistently safe operation I offer “Coker Operation Focused Training” for coker operators, engineers and managers. New instrumentation to detect and monitor drum cracks and implement implement new technologies to enhance age of your coking drum will be discussed.

Dr. Goyal's experience is wide ranging and he is open for other consulting needs.
