Accumulation and Over-pressure: difference between accumulation and overpressure

The document discusses accumulation and overpressure in pressure vessels, defining accumulation as the pressure above the maximum allowable working pressure during high operating events, and overpressure as the pressure above the setting of the relief valve before it actuates. It provides specific thresholds for various types of pressure, including hydro test pressure, maximum allowable accumulation, and operating pressures. Additionally, there is a link to a Udemy course on pipe and fittings for oil and gas careers.

Accumulation • Accumulation is pressure above the maximum allowable working pressure of the vessel that vessel will experience during the high operating pressure event • Accumulation is related to vessel • Refer chart 3
Overpressure • Overpressure is pressure above the setting pressure of the relief valve that relief valve experience before pressure start reducing • Overpressure is related to the pressure relief valve • Refer chart 4
Different Types of Pressure for Equipment 5 Hydro test Pressure 130% of Design Pressure Max. Allowable accumulation (fire) 121% of Design Pressure Max. Allowable accumulation Multiple valve – Non fire 116% of Design Pressure Max. Allowable accumulation Single valve – Non fire 110% of Design Pressure MAWP (Maximum Allowable Working Pressure) 100% of Design Pressure (Minimum or more) Design Pressure Operating Pressure 90% of Design Pressure Set Pressure of PSV
